Dear Aquarius, what’s expected of you and what are your expectations in a relationship? Regardless of whether marriage is on the table, you may be examining the level of commitment you share, especially in a long-standing allegiance. Your intent may be to find the middle ground between caving in to the demands of a structured relationship and going off the rails in a complete departure from convention. Events will force you to look at rigid thinking or conformity in following a path simply for the sake of tradition. As a result, you’ll need to answer questions about what you believe and why.
Depending on how you respond to certain unavoidable truths that make it challenging to play nice, this could be an exciting and productive year or one full of pointless drama. There’s a desire to “do the right thing” but still do the thing that makes you feel right with yourself. Promises, yours or that of a significant other, can prove to be the trigger point for feeling as if either you’re not taken seriously or you’re being taken advantage of. Some of these situations might involve the spending habits of a partner or your own risky financial decisions. Emotionally, others may fail to meet expectancy or your behavioral inconsistencies could derail the relationship.
You can be reckless before realizing the ramifications, but it’s best to play by the rules in all matters, including love. Choose your lovers wisely or you’ll come to regret the scandal, intrigue, or rumors lurking on the horizon. Whether accusations involve you or not, the wrong choice of companionship can make it difficult to remove yourself from a sordid scenario.
Positively, you’re finally figuring out who’s worth your time despite the opinions of others. If you’re searching for true love, this is the year when you can meet a soul mate. This may be a spiritual union built on a mutual value system that leads to marriage or strong commitment–if that’s your desire. A Taurus person (sun, moon, rising) may be a factor.
