No, it isn’t political, it’s romantic–a tarot forecast that provides a brief overview of the current state of your relationship.
Heart of the Matter
You’re having to make a judgment call about reviving a relationship or dealing with decisions that have come back to haunt you. You’ve reached a critical phase in a connection that compels you to take action and decide whether or not to continue as a couple. Depending on the exchange, this union will either move forward or fall apart. The more important development from this process is the growing awareness of your own wholeness whether partnered or not. The current reassessment forces you to consider your personal history of relationships to understand what must first exist within self in order to sustain a fulfilling union. If you choose to fly solo, it won’t be long before a new option presents, although some soul-searching is recommended before jumping in head first in a hurry.
The Crossing
(What Challenges or Affirms the Above)
A Virgo (sun, moon, rising) could play a key role in upcoming events. This may be a transitional period in your relationship where you keep a partner at arms length or make a conscious choice not to disclose certain information, especially if you’re now just biding your time in a circumstance. During this period of introspection you may feel bouts of loneliness and sexual isolation, but you’re given the space to reflect on the wisdom you’ve gained from past experiences that will help you address what you’ve avoided. This awareness provides a light to work out issues with a partner or reevaluate future goals more suited to your own life path. Enlightenment can come through confrontation, criticism, and battles that prove to at least one of you that you don’t know what you think you do.
Underlying Influence
A sudden change takes you by surprise and requires that you release a relationship, possession, situation, or circumstance. You’ve probably rationalized the reasons for holding on despite all evidence to the contrary. This refusal to reorganize certain aspects of your life or relationship that are clearly no longer working has prompted providence to step in to shift your life in the direction you’ve heretofore evaded. For some, this can happily manifest as a marriage, career change, relocation, renovation, or the purchase of a property. For others, an external event prompts a reality check, a radical shift, and the final straw through a confrontation that ends in a break up, separation, or divorce. As disconcerting as it feels, the truth will set you free.
The Recent Past
Perhaps you’re married or have been considering the prospect of taking your commitment to a higher level. Your partnership may be either very traditional or one that breaks with convention, family, or societal norms. Either way, the focus between you has been trying to decide what “doing the right thing” looks like. If expectations haven’t been met, you might have decided to seek counseling in an effort to improve the relationship. However, your choice of partner or questionable decisions may have been the root of drama, accusations, or rumors because of ongoing financial issues and inconsistencies between word and deed. But before you resort to rationalizing your own reckless behavior based on attraction or frustration, make sure you have all the facts. A Taurus person (sun, moon, rising) may have played a key role.
Crowning Influence
Above all else, you’re concerned with what’s fair and may be seeking some form of justice to right the scales and restore balance to your relationship and/or your life. Perhaps you need to establish the priorities in this union. This can mean examining your own conscience or giving/receiving an apology to settle an emotional debt. However, events also bring the possibility for legal issues that may involve prenuptial agreements, divorce settlements, the distribution of assets, or child support. Due to some recent changes, you’ll need to carefully consider your decisions with a definite strategy in mind and a clear vision of where this relationship is headed. Integrity and accountability should be the final decree. A Libra person (sun, moon, rising) could hold influence.
Outcome
If you or your partner have been keeping any secrets, they’re likely to be revealed at this time. One of you has been operating under some form of delusion whether it’s a false projection or actual deception. Either way, events seem to drive all of your insecurities to the surface that are rooted in the past–old memories, family patterns of conditioning, security, and possible issues surrounding maternal figures or mother/child relationships. It’s possible that your relationship is the portal for reliving childhood trauma buried deep in the subconscious that’s currently playing out as fears about money, commitment, and intimacy. Try as you might to sustain the illusion of a happy union, there’s a deep inner truth you already know. Now you need to give yourself permission to love again. A Cancer or Pisces (sun, moon, rising) may be part of the mix.
