Hey guys, I'm just curious for those of you in relationships that knew your person was right for you, how did you know? What did it feel like? Does the astrology match up to how you feel/how things have played out? Or have things played out differently than you thought? I hear all the time how people knew this and that person was their person for life, but then it ends up going sour.

When you meet someone and your knees shake, your heart stomps and you feel butterflies in your stomach whilst being out of breath etc. They are NOT the one☝🏿

Meeting the one who is meant for you is like a river flowing into the sea, ice melting into water, night fading into dawn. It is seamless and noiseless. It feels like "coming home" & very natural- even inevitable. You just know that this is where you belong and don't question it. Ever.

I am not inlove, but whilst I am open to persuasion(to reference Joan Armatrading 😁 . I am aware of this knowledge from an intutive level. Its just a matter of place and context that I know I will experience it.

You have to be at peace when you meet the one. Completely comfortable and feeling at peace with them around you that even doing "unexciting stuff" like moving furniture around, painting a cupboard or cleaning up together etc. Feels like an enjoyable time.

Thats when you know. Coz life is long and love is not necessarily created in grand moments.But it is always within minutiae and the mundane❤

When I met my husband it was sheer coincidence. Met at his work. I wasn’t looking for anything or anyone but agreed to a coffee. After a while I fell in love but it’s never been butterflies with him. It’s been a growing curve. I accept him the way he his, mostly, and we can be extremely boring together and that’s OK.

Extremely deep down I don’t think he’s the one” because I’ve had to change myself a lot in order to make us function. It hasn’t been “flowing”. But we’ve been married for 7 1/2 years.

Aren’t relationships supposed to be about change and growth though?

I have known twice in my life when I was supposed to be with someone, but neither of those relationships were meant to be forever. With the first man, it was recognition from a photo. I had never met him, but just seeing his photo I knew that I had known him in a past life. He has been the greatest love so far, but it was a very tumultuous relationship.

The second one I saw at a wedding, and again I knew. Two months later we began dating, and we were together for 18 months. It was not infatuation love, just very comfortable love. However, I needed growth in a way that he didn't, so we parted.

I am currently very happy being by myself, but I also know there is someone special coming soon. So for now I am enjoying my time to myself, and waiting to be surprised by how this man will enter my life and what it will feel like, regardless of how long it lasts.

And P.S. yes, the synastry and composite did line up with the relationships- chaotic and intense for the first one, and very routine and mundane for the second.

Interesting! So there were no "long-lasting" indicators?

Isn't it always the case that when we are least "looking", we are more predisposed to "finding"?

I like what you said there though. That you can be extremely boring together. And thats O.K. It shows a mature heart in matters of love.👌🏿

Do you think that you can be happy to accept that he may mot necessarily be the "one"? But is the the one right now ? What do you think is missing ?

Sometimes I think life puts us at a vantage point to ask and clarify more of what we want.That it's never the "perfect" house we move into. But it is from that point of knowing what we don't want in a house, that our vision for what we do want starts to be more visceral.

We are always asking, expanding and wanting better, more improved, upgraded etc.Why? Not because we are "ungrateful" for what we have. But because its part of Universal law i.e. when born into this time/space reality, our only purpose or "sole/soul" purpose is expansion. Just like the Universe is forever expanding at a rapid never-ending rate.

❤❤❤. For me Lily, that is enough to know that it is possibly for lots more.

I think the issue with me is that i am still too fixated on "looking" my way into a match-up. I still want control over the process.

At times i do hear the universe saying to me again and again, " all will work out to your benefit. Trust the process and let go."

Oh but i remain hesitant, fearful and in dread. Its mostly unconscious or learned behaviour. But i am aware of it enough to manifest its progressive change 🙏🏿

.

I have accepted he’s the one right now but I’m starting to get this familiar feeling that “someone” is out there. I’ve had that feeling many times before and I had it right before I moved back to Sweden and subsequently met my husband shortly thereafter. What’s missing is this sense of purpose. He’s always missing his family back home (completely different culture and traditions than mine) and he’s always complaining about Sweden and Swedish people and how much it hates them/it. There’s no real sense of togetherness against the system if that makes sense. It feels as if he’s always looking for something better to come along.

Not really. With the first guy we had the Saturn connections, but they were heavy and they played out that way. With my ex husband we also had Saturn connections, and the whole marriage was heavy. Second guy no real Saturn, and we didn't feel bound to each other... which was nice except that I had no concerns when I realized it was time to leave. It was a light relationship even though we loved each other, and it was 100% amicable once we split. I feel no ties to him now, though I definitely feel tied to the first guy. I feel like I will meet the first guy again in my next life, just like we have come together in many past lives.

He bought me chocolate! I was recovering from a skiing injury and he visited me with a huge chocolate Easter bunny. He was very caring and sweet to me. I felt extremely save and comfortable with him.

I have Taurus Venus and my 7th house ruler is Cancer Mars. So with his nurturing behavior and chocolate gift he definitely was my “type”. Also my Taurus Venus square his Leo Ascendant and his Aries Venus opposite my Libra Ascendant, His Taurus Mars/Saturn(R7) conjunct my Taurus Venus and my Cancer Mars(R7)/Saturn conjunct his Cancer Moon. There’s more but these are the most significant aspects. The relationship got serious pretty quickly. There was never any doubt about our intentions. The relationship lasted 14 years, married for 10 years, before it ended. It was painful to let go but we’re still on good terms. He’s a great guy, we’re just not that great together anymore.

I love Sweden and I often find you very attractive. Rebecca Ferguson and Ingrid Bergman are some of my favorite actresses and I grew up with Astrid Lindgrens novels. It makes sense what you say ("There’s no real sense of togetherness against the system"). I think when you are in an intercultural relationship you have to like at least parts of your partner's culture, be curious and have a genuine interest in it.

Right! In his defense he hasn't had the greatest time here though. Some of it is self made (drugs, bad people, bad decisions etc. He's done with that now) and the fact he had a child with his ex wife and MAN, that is one **** -show :-/
Him being a Pisces Venus conj Asc I fear he has a hard time seeing people and situations and it's easy for him to get hurt, although his Aries Sun ego would NEVER admit it.

Anyway, I am the type that my home and family can literally be anywhere in the world. It used to be Los Angeles and now it's Sweden. I get the feeling that his home will always be where his literal blood family is and that's not with me.

The most people I’ve met felt special. (Thanks to my Neptune) I’ve never gone to dating sites or places for meeting people. It always was kinda random.
Before, it was rare. Lately, I’d met them more often and it was more dramatic. So it’s not that special anymore. Moreover, last times I wanted to run as fast as I could when I saw those special people. I got tired from BS and drama. So nowadays I’m like let’s skip all those fake romantic BS and go straight up to power struggle and go in different directions.
I usually knew they were supposed to be there and started to feel different before their arrival. I saw them by their energy. They usually had some shining around them and grabbed my whole attention. It’s pretty big because I’m often in my head and don’t pay much attention to strangers. We got some energy hooks.

Usually, all those encounters got hard transforming lessons and complications attached.
Never was comforting and easy.
Transit Neptune made me completely disappointed in Neptunian things.
Person who felt the most special was somebody I barely knew, but got bad Karma with I lived through other encounters and we probably need to work on it in the next life.

First, I gave astrology no consideration whatsoever.

I knew because of the spiritually generated synchronicity. I co-created with Spirit that I have a partner who loves and accepts me as I am. And she was right there, someone who at first I had no specific attraction to before our friendship developed in person. I let go of preconceptions and trusted — and responded. She was the one who took the initiative. That was in 2009. We married and are still together.

But part of how I knew and still know is our sense of humor together. Also a similar (religious) background and similarity in how we left it.

I won't say that things have gone as I expected or according to images or biases I had in my mind. My process has been to let go of those and co-create with my wife our life together, to grow together.

Wow. So it feels as if you are both keeping each other company until better comes along?🤔. Most people do that for a very long time.

Ime,I get this feeling almost immediately after being with someone for a few minutes. I just know that romantically (should it start like that) it won't be anything mind-blowing. Just a time passer.

And that's ok too at some junctures in life.👌🏿

Still, 14 years is a long time! It is lovely that you could spend that time together at all.

Beautiful! Either way, does your composite chart show the things that have transpired between you two anyway?

It was and will always be one of the most significant relationships in my life. We have two children together. And our break up seems to be very important for me as well, because now I’m trying to heal some of my deep rooted insecurities. It would have been very easy for me to just ignore these issues if I would still be content in a relationship.

Looking at my own chart and reflecting on my life, it feels like this relationship was a very karmic one and was meant to happen. My feelings towards romantic partnerships have always been somewhat strained. I have trust issues and tend to keep my distance. My 7th house ruler Mars is conjunct Saturn and both square Chiron in the 7th house. I think it’s very insightful to study your own chart, especially the 7th house and its ruler when it comes to relationships.

If I understand correctly, progressions and transits are important indicators of significant relationships.

Even if the synastry and connection is there, you’re not always ready for a relationship. Timing is important.
