LONG TERM RELATIONSHIPS

It seems long term relationships are far and few between. 

Long Term Relationships

During the course of a committed relationship, marriage or otherwise, there will be challenges.  The newness of a relationship only lasts so long and then wears off. The excitement begins to settle, and then the true “getting to know each other” actually begins. We become more comfortable in the relationship and our deeper personality traits now surface. This can be unsettling in some cases, and we can let little insignificant or large surprising traits irritate us.

We learn to adapt and accept our differences, or we can challenge and stress over these differences to the point that they may be deal breakers.

Some individuals will learn to adapt and are willing to make changes to themselves, while others may refuse to make any changes as they feel they should not have to change for someone else. 

In relationships, we cannot expect someone to change to suit us. We can only make changes ourselves, either in character, circumstance or attitude.

This can be where some relationships crumble while others gain momentum. At this point, due to acceptance some relationships actually become stronger as love, hard work and acceptance are the backbone of a relationship. There will always be times when the relationship experiences difficulties. The outside world influences everything it touches but if we recognize that the source of irritation is from outside the relationship, the bond can deepen.

For those individuals currently going through one of these phases, recognize that in most cases, a slight change of attitude can make a world of difference.  Acceptance, compassion and support for one another is essential. Most irritants are temporary. Remind yourself to review the circumstances and look at the influence of the events around you.  Illness, family, world situations, finances, worry, fear, anxiety and attitude must be taken into consideration.  These can have profound consequences on relationships. 

After reviewing outside circumstances, you likely will come to realize that your relationship is good but other parts of life may need some adjustments.

For those that are experiencing difficulties in their relationship and have been for some time, be sure to have clear communication. Seek counselling as a professional can offer advice that you may not have thought about. 

Long term relationships take hard work, perseverance, love and compassion. Do not let the stress of outside influences affect your relationships. Do the work needed. Your well-being and the well-being of your relationship is worth it!

GIVE AND TAKE IN APPROPRIATE PROPORTIONS

Give and Take in Appropriate Proportions

It is important in all relationships (marriage, friendships and even in business) to have a balance of give and take. 

With maybe the exception of a business relationship, we need to feel loved not just needed.  A relationship is based on balance. When we love, we give unconditionally but over time if we feel we carry the weight of the relationship, conditions begin to materialize.

All relationships take effort and hard work from all parties involved.

As they say, “Rome wasn’t built in a day”. 

For many, in the beginning of a relationship, it is pure bliss. As time passes, we begin to show our true self and to see the other party more clearly.  It is only then that we can begin to build a solid foundation for the relationship.

Give and take in appropriate proportions, as this is the cornerstone to all relationships. It takes work to build a solid relationship where you feel loved and valued. Oh, but it is so worth the effort!

TRANSITS TO SUN IN VIRGO 2025

We posted an article on August 20 about the general attributes of Sun in Virgo. Read here: https://www.holmastrology.com/post/sun-in-virgo-2025 

Transits to Sun in Virgo 2025

Today we will review some of the transits that will influence those with their Sun in Virgo over the coming year.

Transiting Mercury is in the sign of Virgo from September 2-19, 2025 while transiting Venus is in Virgo from September 19 through to October 13, 2025.  They will not make a conjunction with one another, but as they move through Virgo, they will make connections to all those with their Sun in the sign of Virgo. 

Transiting Pluto is in the early degrees of Aquarius and will stay in this sign for many years to come. Pluto will make aspect to some Sun in Virgo by Quincunx. Check your chart for the appropriate degree (150°) to see if your chart is influenced. The orb of approaching Pluto to those influenced is 4-5° while the separating influence is about 2°.

The Conjunction of Mercury affects the areas of communication, interaction, your thought process and can indicate short trips.  Mercury is often tied to teaching/learning, all education and is intense when it comes to communication of all sorts.  Mercury rules both Virgo and Gemini.

When Mercury connects with the Virgoan’s Sun, for about 7 days, you will perhaps ingulf yourself in deep thought, and communicate with yourself ideas that may further your goals in life.  Perhaps you are preparing for schooling or may educate yourself and learn the use of specific tools that may help you professionally.  The Mercury contact is a good time for educating yourself, open communication with others and evaluating what you might want to do as you move forward in your quest for understanding and knowledge.

When Venus interacts with your Virgoan Sun, (which also lasts approximately 7 days) you might want to include what you were planning with your friends and associates.  Perhaps the planning process is now in the organization stage.  Socializing is often a part of the process, and you may find yourself more involved with others, perhaps entertaining them or going to gatherings. 

For some, this can be a time of love and affection.  Perhaps you meet someone under this influence and decide to allow the relationship to develop and you share affection.  Perhaps the next step is in order.  Much will depend on the houses involved in your chart for both Mercury as well as Venus while in aspect.  These will be the areas of life being influenced by the energies.

When Pluto enters the scene, it will be a long-lasting aspect that will play an important role in your life lasting several years and usually not fully understood for about 2 years.  Pluto is about transformation and regeneration.  It can indicate power problems or struggles associated with your goals in life, or a need to make changes to the path you are on.  There are no half measures when Pluto is involved and, in many cases, what was in place will go through dynamic changes and something new comes into play as you may have to leave something behind.

A quincunx always indicates that an adjustment is necessary.  Because of the changes that Pluto often brings, you will have to adjust to where life is taking you and fighting the process is futile as where you are going is exactly where you are meant to go in this place in time.  Pluto is dynamic in its energies and sometimes the change taking place is hard to adjust to, but over time, you will adjust and reap the rewards of life’s new avenues of expression.

Happy solar return to our Sun in Virgo followers. The transits to Sun in Virgo, 2025, suggest self-study, learning, communication, relationships and a transition of sorts. Embrace the energies available.
