Talking Marriage

[Juliet]

Yesterday my guy and I talked marriage in earnest (it was quite unnerving AND wonderful).

The aspects of the conversation to the Davidson composite are telling: (I'll limit myself to the conjunctions)

• Moon / Sun
  
• NN / Venus
  
• Jupiter / Chiron
  
• DC / Sun
  
• Venus / Eros
  
• Sun / Mars
  
• Vertex / Jupiter = bf's Moon
  
• Part of Marriage = tr Mars in 11
  

I also compared the chart of our meeting to the Davidson. Strange how it seems like the composite was waiting to be kissed wide awake: Transiting Venus was on comp Venus and tr Juno on composite Juno, Sun and Mercury on c Sun and tr Mars on composite Moon and Mercury.

Juliet, I got shivery when I read this! I loved your phrase about the Davison needing to be "kissed wide awake". Beautiful.

Keep us in touch!

[Aphrodite]

Woohoo, Juliet! Let me offer my congratulations and best wishes for a joyous outcome for you both! Also, I agree with Ariesmoon. That line was pure poetry. You were obviously inspired! ;-)

Love,

Aphrodite

Juliet!!!! I love this.

And, it's inspired me to consider the Davidson Chart.

Thank you.

I love your sparkling light

Thank you for your compliments, you are all so sweet! It has been, and is, quite a wonderful journey with my taurus...

I like the Davidson better then the regular composite. Of course, it's similar to it, but it's versatile and in our case, feels more appropriate.
Love, Juliet

Oh, very exciting! Wonderful news. Congratulations, and much joy to you and your true love!

Congradulations Juliet. About your wedding bells. May they ring happy and true for you.

I'm still at a stand still with my beloved Kassandra. you know my heart is singing.

I wont look twice
when the other girls
go by
I'll be true to you
yes I will.

My heart is sure
youre the girl
I've waited for
I'll be true to you
yes I will.

(I actually do sing and play this song)

However my roving eye still...LOOK's...and says unashamely "WHAT? WHAT? You'd Look too!" If you were kept on a string and waiting always @#$%&@# waiting. Sorry bout the off color comments. Ya know waiting is an Aries pet peeve. Like hurry up...slow pokey....(aiming a well place kick to stragglers behinds)....like TODAY already...in her case "YESTERDAY"

Hopefully she'll come around. However hopelessly in love I'm beginning to feel about it all.

Glad some of us are finding Love and happiness. SOMEDAY...for me.

Well, Ariesmale, Love is always around, it all started with loving myself!
My guy and I found each other when we both stopped pining for the unrequited stuff.

In the few months before we met, I had started to deeply feel that love is always there and not specifically in the romantic stuff. I mean, I could feel the love in the wind in my hair when riding my bike, or in the smiles of children and: just being me. Actually, there are millions of things that represent love to me and I had begun to appreciate those fully and wholeheartedly. It meant a life shift. An internal revolution. I had not been able to let go of someone, and I could let go when I felt all that real love, and no longer focussed all my loving energy on that idealized love somewhere in my head. That pining and and that pain was about me, not really about that other guy.

Then I met my sweetheart. It wasn't lust or romantic ardour or infatuation at first sight, I just liked him so much, felt so at ease with him. And we had fun. After the first night, I was convinced I (at 49) had had the first one night stand in my life. Then he really started chasing me, I liked that a lot!

The passion came later, and still grows after almost 2.5 yrs with him. And the selflove too, it's important in and to any relationship to keep that going. Soooo easy to lose yourself in someone else but that does not bring happiness.
Oh, and I still look at other men, and my bf still looks at other women. (but never when I am around, I like that about him) Nothing wrong with a bit of flirting.

Thanks to Airedale / every time I read it, I'm so moved:

Love After Love -- by Derek Walcott

The time will come when,
with elation,
you will greet yourself
arriving at your own door,
in your own mirror,
and each will smile at the other's welcome,
and say,
sit here.

Eat.

You will love again
the stranger who was yourself.

Give wine.
Give bread.

Give back your heart
to itself,

to the stranger who has loved you
all your life,

whom you ignored
for another,

who knows you by heart.

Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,
the photographs,
the desperate notes,
peel your own image
from the mirror.

Sit.

Feast on your life.

-- Derek Walcott

That's beautiful, Juliet.

I could feel the love in the wind in my hair when riding my bike, or in the smiles of children and: just being me. Actually, there are millions of things that represent love to me and I had begun to appreciate those fully and wholeheartedly.

And thank you, and Airedale again, for Walcott.
