It's everywhere I turn these days - not to mention the arrival of the red and pink fluffy stuff. Forget Christmas. Right now, the business is about floating hearts - lots of them!! The Valentine's Day brigade are shameless. They didn't give us a moment to catch our breath after Boxing day - and boy we needed to catch our breath! Fasten your chastity belts - we're in the season of LOVE!
Since last we spoke, I've been a very busy little Cupid. Up to my 'Love- Linking' little tricks! I knew this eligible bachelor, and a lovely divorcee. I felt they would be a good match for each other. So, throwing caution to the wind, I introduced them this past weekend. I was the chaperon, sitting between them in the restaurant. Let me tell you darlings - the sparks were flying - good sparks! So hot were they, I burnt my little brain, and left my reading glasses behind me. The two have been in regular contact since Friday, and they have arranged a further date...and more...and more!! You are not going to believe the other astrological co-incidence - she is the same sign as Michelle Obama - and the Merry Monsieur is the same sign as Barack!! I know exactly how to counsel them. But try and tell a Leo man to turn down the heat, is like trying to pull a bone from a hungry dog!!
Yes, it's a tough job being a matchmaker - but someone has to do it. When astro-counselling couples, I have to be direct and tell it like it is. Not always easy, but nevertheless, it is appreciated. When somebody comes to your door bearing their soul and heart, you have to handle them with tender loving care. Like the day I had to tell an earnest young fellow to employ caution, and that I did not feel the relationship was meant to be. He listened, and against my advice pursued his lady love, to discover she was madly in love with somebody else. Love it is a funny thing...blind...insane...addictive - but if you're not in - you can't win!
Love really is all about compromise...Some time ago, a couple came to see me. He had an invisible leash around his neck. As an Astro-Cupid, I see things others don't, and I could tell that he would rather be anywhere else! I welcomed them in, and made the customary tea, giving them a chance to relax and chill. Both their birth charts were unfortunately populated with a preponderance of planets in the 'fixed', or in layman's language 'stubborn' signs - Taurus - Leo - Scorpio and Aquarius. Yes, if you have a lot of these signs in your chart - you're going to be...how do I say this politely? - without offending...the word I am trying to ease out is... STUBBORN! On the plus side, you are very loyal, and don't give up easily. On the negative side, it can sometimes be a case of 'It's my way or the highway...! The art of compromise needs to be cultivated by people with a lot of 'fixed' energy in their charts.
"So who gets the final word?" I asked. "Him" she said, pointing to her husband. "Her" he added, pointing to his good Missus. I could see that compromise was a difficult pill for either one to swallow. We discussed their relationship, and as my guides would have it, we began to discuss his childhood, and relationship with his mother (very important!!).
Because they were both so set in their ways, we joked about it. I decided to turn what could be an emotionally charged session, into a more light-hearted humorous experience. I told them they needed to draw lots to decide on an issue. They loved that idea. Simple as it may sound. By the end of our session, they were holding hands, and all lovey-dovey again. Once we had discussed some strategies on moving on as a couple, the temperature in the room cooled down considerably. Smiles returned.
Tune in for some more stories in the next few days...There are loads of celebrities that I am literally itching to digest!!
Love you first...then you can love others more...
Hugs,
Astro-Cupid xxx
