The love life realities we’ve discovered throughnour work since 1992 aren’t entirely easy to digest,nespecially for those with old-fashioned romantic nvalues. Even we find some of them troubling.
We’ve been accused of having fatalisticnviewpoints, yet even though some of the belowninformation may seem a bit harsh, objectivelynweighing and even eventually accepting it cannhelp you gain happiness and improve your life.
1) While it’s not easy to let go sometimes, younmust if you want to flow with your life insteadnof battling it, which will only cause you morenstress and make you miserable. For example,nyou want to remain in your current lovenrelationship, yet circumstances beyond you
control force you apart, or your mate wants tondissolve the union and there’s nothing you canndo to change their mind. On the bright side, ifnyou had great love life timing during thisntransition (as previously forecasted by anprofessional) it may very well be representativenof an entirely new lover, unrelated to the onenthat you are trying to hang onto. Expectationsnof fulfilling, lasting (e.g., life-long, untilnat least the 50-year anniversary date, etc.)nlove connections aren’t reasonable. Remember,nwe all have more than one soul mate (some arenmore compatible than others) and fewnrelationships are destined to last forever,nthough unconditional love does transcendnlifetimes.
2) The duration of a relationship is predictablenand is just another life situation symbolicallynruled by comprehensive cyclical timing methods.
For example, you enter a romantic relationshipnunder lucrative, yet “...ends sooner thannexpected...” love timing. One year later younenter better romantic timing, some of the bestnof your life. Does it mean that you willnautomatically go deeper into the existing bondnand enjoy even better relations with your currentnlove? It could mean that to some degree, atnvarious points during the timeframe, but whatntranspires is dependent upon your mate’s timingnand the compatibility energy between you two.
You might be fated to split with your lover (atnthe very least, on an emotional level) unde
your upcoming great love life timing and connectnwith somebody else.
By the way, when we talk about duration ofna relationship, we’re talking about when anrelationship has naturally run its course,nwhen it’s clear that it’s over (to those f.reenof self-deception), not when the two peoplenfinally go their separate ways years or decadesnlater. Staying trapped in a relationship that’snover is like over-sleeping until late afte
oonnon a beautiful day; you’re wasting preciousntime.
3) Considering that you have many soul mates,nany given fantastic love life phase could easilyninclude two or more new romantic interests, andnthey don’t always show up at the most appropriatentimes, as fate dictates. In our Love Life Timeline’sn(see scottpetullo.com for more information )
“additional information” page, we state that unde
the most favorable love life periods for any givennperson, “Single people are empowered to capitalizenon the best times in their lives for seeking romanticnpartners, and for those already in committednrelationships, the Love Life Timeline displays thenmost opportune times to deepen love connections.”
But that doesn’t guarantee 100% romantic delightnwith the love
you’re already committed to.
The timeframe offering “...most rewarding lovenconnections...,” for example, where love timingnis at a peak point, might include dramatic discordnand subsequent dissolution of an existing lovenrelationship upon entering the period, even if thatntype of situation isn’t reflected in the overallnforecast. The circumstances outlined in Love Life
Timelines, for instance, are most fitting for peoplenactively looking for new love, and those couples whonare aware of and realistic about the length of timenthey are destined to be together. Aside from thensubject’s personal timing based on cyclical timingnmethods and their natal personality traits, younmust also weigh the new partner’s personalntiming and the compatibility energy.
4) Be sure to proceed carefully with any newnlove interests when you’re under rough love lifenor financial timing, as it could result in loss.
To know about your fate, aside from your romanticntiming, consider carefully the financial timingn(e.g., the timing outlined in a Money Timeline,nas symbolized by all the collective, related,nastrological and numerological time cycles innconnection with natal indications) when you meetna new love interest. Although you may not havenfantastic financial timing three years after younfirst connect with your mate, for example, the factnthat you did when you met him or her is highlynreflective of the financial fate of the connection.
This concept of placing great emphasis on you
personal timing at the start of anything significantnin your life also applies to other areas of life suchnas relocation or starting a new career. For furthe
clarity, it’s also important to consider the natal andntiming indications of anyone else directly or indirectlynrelated to your love relationships, such as throughnlegal arrangements, including family, businessnpartners or other circumstances.
5) Instead of hoping your love interest is “thenone” for a lifetime, be grateful that they are innyour life now and accept each relationship fornwhat and how long it’s meant to be, while at thensame time doing what you can to make the mostnof it. You have the opportunity to learn and grownfrom each person you meet. Each connection isninvaluable in what it offers from a spiritualnperspective, no matter the duration.
