Marriage is hard enough with its ups and downs that come with a typical relationship. But when you add astrology into the mix, you may find yourself understanding why you are having issues, to begin with. There are some signs that are more difficult than others and although each sign has both positive and negative traits when those traits aren’t recognized things can get ugly.
One thing that couples need to understand when it comes to their marriage is that nothing is random. The planets that fall into a particular house in their charts have a lot to do with how they view each other and love in general. On the chart, the seventh house represents unions between husbands and wives as well as overall relationships. Depending on what planet falls into this house can say a lot about why things are going south in your marriage.
The planets that greatly affect your marriage are the Sun, Mars, Saturn and of course Venus. Depending on where these planets are located on your chart can give you clues as to how your marriage will work out or how it will fail.
Take a look at the Sun. In general, the Sun is hot in nature. If the Sun is placed in the 7th house then you and your partner may experience problems that revolve around ego. Tempers will fly off the hook and things will get heated pretty fast. If you can recognize this happening, take a moment and step back from the issue and breathe. Don’t let it get so far out of hand that you do or say something that you will regret later. The sun is all about high temperatures both in and out of the bedroom. Use your pent up frustration is a positive way instead of blowing up and going super-nova.
Mars is known to cause many problems and can be quarrelsome that could lead to physical harassment. When Mars is in the 7th house expect fights to arise and a discord between husband and wife only. If by chance Mars is in the 3rd or the 11th house the arguments and disharmony will be felt by everyone in the family including in-laws. If you begin to notice that your fights are happening more frequently, you need to figure out where Mars in the night sky as well as on your chart.
If Mars happens to be around the earth, yes arguments will happen and everyone will feel like they are walking on egg shells. The best thing to do is take yourself out of the equation for a while and do your own thing. Don’t let anyone dictate how you feel. Only you can control your emotions, so don’t let your partner or his/her family make you feel something you don’t want to feel.
Saturn is the planet that directly relates to marriage so if the planet falls within the first or seventh house, partners may become suspicious of each other and doubts will arise. Because Saturn doesn’t revolve around the Sun very fast, issues that arise are slow to happen. It may come off as a nudge or a shadow in the back of one’s mind but slowly begins to eat away and leaves one feeling like they can’t trust their partner or lover.
If you find yourself feeling like something is going on behind your back, express it right away don’t keep it locked away. That is Saturn’s influence on you. Saturn moves slowly and seeps in, but if you stop and address the problem when it first comes up, then you can save yourself a lot of trouble. You should also seek to do the opposite of what you want. Plan a romantic dinner for two or a weekend get-a-away to rekindle your relationship that is stressed over doubt and suspicion.
Venus is usually a planet of love, but when it is placed poorly on the chart, it can lead to a partner straying and looking for love with someone else. If you happen to feel your partner slipping from you in this manner, try adding spice to your sex life. Maybe all they need is something a little different from you and for you to show them that you are just as adventurous. Just don’t do something that you are not comfortable with and start slowly by adding a little something new during your intimate moments.
Now the placement of planets is just one thing to look for when you are wondering why your relationship is going south. What you need to do though is look at your partner’s zodiac sign. Within each sign shows the personality traits they possess. Everyone has a good side and a not so good side. In order to save your marriage, you need to understand their traits from an astrological level. It is possible that once you discover their inner self that things can be addressed accordingly and harmony brought back into the marriage.
