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
Are commitment issues a problem? One of you could be in search of greener pastures or taking an extraordinary amount of time to commit. If single, this is a great time for new starts, new people, and new experiences. You may be more willing to experiment in a relationship, with persons outside of your norm, or persons who are youthful (or make you feel young), free-spirited, open-minded, or bohemian. If you’ve ended a relationship, it’s time to move toward a new path of possibilities. In fact, a tie to your destiny could manifest while traveling, through a significant encounter with someone new, or in a reconnect with someone from your past. Don’t let love become a liability through choices that take you spinning headfirst into any relationship that triggers a cautionary warning. Either you or a partner may wish to take a wait and see approach before fully investing or one of you may decide to leave an established relationship, especially if the tendency is to look for the off-ramp when matters don’t go according to plan.
The Crossing
(What Challenges of Affirms the Above)
While the potential for union exists, the question of compatibility remains. But what if the question is really more about what’s going on inside of you and what keeps you from committing or finding “the one”? It may be time to bring your own life into balance, especially if you find yourself chained to the wrong people or perpetually partnered with someone where issues of compromise, fairness, and doing the fair share to take responsibility for the relationship are themes. If you continue to procrastinate in addressing valid concerns, old patterns of infidelity, obsession, or addiction can emerge when one of you is out of control. Under the best circumstances, frank discussions take place in a safe space of clearing the air without judgment. You don’t need to make an excuse or habit of taking yourself for granted, nor should you accept it in a relationship. A Sagittarius (sun, moon, rising) may expand your view.
Underlying Influence
What’s on the other side of that fence? If single, getting out in the community will stimulate social and romantic possibilities. If partnered, a greater willingness to compromise can encourage you to consider having a child or start planning a more permanent future. Situations are motivated by plans or news that affect security matters, health, or bring an opportunity for gain. In the negative, small things, whether financial or emotional, become major inconveniences or provoke strong disagreement. Any measure of self-doubt can trigger a response that’s irrational, obsessive, paranoid, or secretive prompting one of you to look for better prospects “out there” that are unlikely to deliver.
The Recent Past
You and a partner might have disagreed due to conflicting perspectives. Despite the fact that you’ve called a truce or a time out, you’re distinctly aware that there’s no real resolution. Perhaps you’ve been waiting for change, a shift in circumstance, or holding tight to your resolve. The end result is the same–stuck in a stalemate with no way out in a situation involving a difficult decision. This might have caused you to suffer irrational anxieties when least expected due to the lack of forward movement. Either of you may have responded to matters by closing off or shutting down, especially when faced with uncertainty about the future. Contradictory feelings within yourself or about a partner made it difficult to express your emotions or find resolution. The challenge has been not to allow impatience or frustration to undermine the objective while getting clear on what you or a partner is willing to commit.
Crowning Influence
Trying to find answers or resolution is behind involvement with someone new or determining whether you wish to get closer to or further estranged from someone with whom you’re already involved. In any case, you’re seeking greater clarity about your own level of participation, if any, in a relationship. Perhaps the tendency is to keep each other at arms length for fear of getting too close or not being taken seriously by someone you care for deeply. Honest communication is what keeps the lines open to preserve your union even when the dialogue is difficult or involves confrontation.
Outcome
Petty squabbles or attempts at control cause you to question the sincerity of your partner, especially when behavior creates unnecessary problems or makes matters more difficult than need be. Perhaps there’s competition with a rival for affection or difficulty in getting your partner’s attention. It’s possible that neither of you have addressed the real cause of conflict, and as a result, petty bickering over the trivial is merely an excuse to start an argument about something else. Indecision makes it hard to get along and the outward sparring is an indication of the battle going on inside. Nevertheless, the chemistry between you is powerful, but you don’t need to get rattled to get aroused. The danger is forming a habit that depends on the sparks to fly to serve as a prelude for passion.
