"When will you find love?"

So many clients who are single and longing ask the age old question, “When will I find love?” In fact, it’s a good astrological question, and it can be seen in Western astrology by many different patterns. Let’s see some of them. Of course, the most obvious element to focus on is Venus, the planet of love. (For “advanced,” think secondary or solar arc.)

VENUS

Progressed Venus conjunct Natal Sun (or vice versa, Progressed Sun conjunct Natal Venus) is usually the best indicator of a year in which the universe opens its doors and love enters your life, and in which you would attract to another person who has emotional feelings. for you. This is a time in life when you shouldn’t be alone. However, the love object may not be romantic or permanent. My case studies reveal that in one case this pattern identified the period when a child was adopted by a single parent who had never married (the child being the true soul mate), and in another the pattern pointed to a love story that put the final nail in a disintegrating marriage and set the individual on an important life path… but did not result in marriage. In the former situation, the mother also had Progressed Venus entering H7 (another obvious forecaster) and conjunct the Natal Part of Fortune there, and in the latter, the relationship could be seen in retrospect as a major soul deal, although not destined to result in permanence. Progressed Venus conjunct Progressed Sun (or vice versa, Progressed Sun conjunct Progressed Venus) is very similar in nature, as would be Progressed Venus conjunct the ruler of H7. In the latter case, the nature of the planet acting as ruler would greatly influence the type of relationship formed. For example, if Saturn, possibly an older or serious partner; if Mercury, a younger or friendly guy.

Similarly, Progressed Venus conjunct Sun/or Moon/midpoint Descendant, Progressed Sun conjunct Venus/midpoint Descendant, or Ascendant or Descendant conjunct Sun/Venus midpoint as well they would be good indicators of a period on the clock of life during which a loved one might Appear. (My observation is that this search for love isn’t really just about romance, because it’s not always lasting. The real issue seems to be staying in love, i.e. marriage or a lasting relationship, so I’ll focus on H7 instead of H5.)

Conversely, the Progressed Sun conjunct Venus/Ascendant midpoint could indicate a love relationship (depending on the rulerships of the Sun or Venus), but could easily indicate a period of comfort, self-love, and personal beautification. For those working with declinations, Sun/Venus, Venus/Ascendant or Venus/MC parallels would also see similar indicators.

Of course, if any of these delightful aspects happen at a very young age, their benefits will be wasted in terms of long-term bonding, but there are stories of young people bonding with a friend or neighbor who later becomes their true love. .. or at least his lifelong companion.

A Venusian progression towards itself, i.e. progressed Venus conjunct natal Venus, can only occur when natal Venus is retrograde at birth and then becomes direct during life, or when natal (direct) Venus becomes retrograde. And since Venus retrograde lasts around 43 days (so 43 years per progression), being born closer to its parking lot would guarantee enough time for this return to occur. Such a period will emphasize the nature of the natal meaning of Venus while at the same time highlighting its Venusian qualities. If it is well aspected from birth, happiness can be advanced; if you are afflicted, financial, romantic, or indulgent problems may be emphasized.

OTHER PATTERNS

But aside from these obvious Venus implications, there are other conductive patterns as well. Slightly less obvious are:

As long as the angles are involved with Venus or H7, there is a good chance that love will show up in one’s life, as a strong Progressed Ascendant/Descendant aspecting Natal or Progressed Venus or ruler of H7, usually a positive sign for the marriage, or MC Progressed strongly. Aspecting Natal or Progressed Venus or ruler of H7, another great time for love, even if the aspects are tough (because, after all, how tough can a Venus aspect be?). In fact, any of these would be wonderful for timing a wedding, as would the H7 Progressed ruler with a strong Natal or Progressed Venus aspect. Even a less obvious aspect, such as the Ruling of H7 in a possible aspect of an angle or a planet connected with love, could predispose to a marriage type energy.

A progressed Venus in major aspect with natal Neptune is often found at times of romantic events such as weddings, but tends to embellish the emotions and cloud the reality of the relationship. Such unions will face greater than usual tests regarding the longevity of the marriage, but they can certainly survive progression if an effort is made after approval to deal with the less-than-ideal characteristics of the couple that would later be revealed.

Then there are relationship indicators that usually emphasize your potential, like the Progressed Moon in Libra or H7, or the Progressed planets in H7, or even the Vertex Involvement when in H7. (The Vertex, which is normally found in Houses 5-8, in my observation, functions as a fulcrum around which key events form, so if it is in H7, key associations will be accentuated when activate the Vertex). If the natal chart has planets in H7, the progressions or transits of outer planets to them will certainly accentuate relationships (but such horoscopes will always deal with partners, or the consequences of the lack of them, since that was part of the life plan). ). Venus-Moon patterns often result in an individual’s general satisfaction, but do not necessarily show romantic involvement; sometimes they mark the birth of children.

With regard to harmony in a relationship once formed, look at one partner’s Progressed Venus following the other’s Progressed Sun, and vice versa, or both Progressed Venuses following each other (a situation not always shown in conjunctions between Comparative Venus in natal charts, since this occurrence will be determined by the age difference between the two individuals, as well as by their natal patterns). Of course, the subject of synastry is separate, to be applied after a relationship has been formed in order to analyze the positive and negative potential between the two horoscopes, so it does not fall within the parameters of this article.

LESS LIKELY TO BE PERMANENT

Finally, there are patterns that can awaken love, but offer the minimum guarantee of long-term permanence:

Transiting outer planets conjunct Natal or progressed Venus or the ruler of H7 will highlight the qualities of these planets, but they can be unpleasant or fleeting just as easily as the opposite, depending on the meaning of the transiting planet or the natal potential of the planet in transit. transit. . For example, Uranus on Venus could provide an exciting but transitory love experience, while Saturn could be restrictive or serious. Neptune would likely provoke delusional fantasies about the partner or bring a weak or compromised person into the life of one whom one would wish to rescue. And Pluto, of course, would likely offer a powerfully transformative experience that could alter one’s approach to sex, love, or money forever! The transit of outer planets to H7, on the other hand, would probably highlight the need to deal closely with others, but much less likely, the arrival of love.

A FALSE FEAR

Anyone who trusts the truths of astrology must forever cast aside the fear that aging will ruin their chances of love. is a legend. For example, I had a 70-year-old client, an artist, who found a suitor when her Progressed Sun was sextile her Ascendant while her Progressed Venus was opposite her Moon, and her Progressed Venus was trine Neptune , crossing its South. node. (The last pattern shows a love connection from previous lives.) Once it was intended to happen (by any of these aforementioned patterns), the universe will go to great lengths to bring two people together. People will meet “accidentally” or on distant trips to places they will never visit again, or be introduced by a third party who will never appear again in any of their lives. Coincidence or synchronicity will abound, and the non-astrologer will be astounded by such “luck”, while the astrologer will knowingly nod as the Divine Plan is revealed through cosmic mathematics.

When one of these patterns enters your chart, you will see the door of love open wide in your heart. But it will be up to you to keep his flame burning from then on. A word of warning though: as I said before, Venus symbolizes love, not necessarily between two romantic partners. I have several examples in my files where one of these patterns brought a soulmate to life in the form of a beloved child. Venus can also symbolize pleasure and financial well-being. The right partner can even bring pleasant financial conditions along with love (such as marrying well), if the horoscope predisposes it. But if the natal chart doesn’t, then positive Venusian aspects will bring other kinds of love (such as the never-married adopter mentioned above whose difficult Sagittarius Sun/Moon/Saturn birth square precluded marriage possibilities in incarnation).

CASE STUDIES

Some case studies of Venusian patterns revealing strong love-based events in my files are as follows:

A forty-six year old widow meets her second spouse: progressed Sun semisextile progressed Venus and progressed Moon in H7.

A seventy-year-old woman is courted: Progressed Sun sextile Ascendant and Progressed Venus opposite Moon.

Divorced woman meets second spouse – He: progressed Venus conjunct Sun; Her: transiting Uranus conjunct Venus and progressed Moon in Libra. Woman’s life changing issue: Progressed Venus conjunct the Sun.

First Marriage for Young Eligible Single – Progressed Venus sextile Ascendant and sextile Node; Moon progressed to H7.
