Relationship Prone vs. Not Relationship Prone People

Note: the following is an excerpt from Donna’s The Outer Planets and Inner Life, v.2: Outer Planet Aspects to Venus and Mars, and is reprinted with permission of Moon Maven Publications, http://www.moonmavenpublications.com
Having followed many clients' and friends' charts' over time, I’ve come to accept that astrology isn’t the best predictor of whether an individual will meet and commit to a partner. HISTORY is a better predictor, and the astrologer being asked about relationship concerns who doesn’t get a relationship history from the client is likely to prove inaccurate. What I’ve observed is that there are relationship-prone people and people who are not relationship-prone. The person who isn’t relationship-prone could have transits or progressions that look ideal for love and not meet a soul, much less a soul mate. Relationship-prone people can have either the worst or the most piddling aspects for romance, and they fall head over heels and hook up with a partner. Go figure.
There are differences among the outer planet aspects to Venus in their degree of willingness to commit to a partnership. Venus-Uranus types above all else want freedom and independence, and so they often engage in a seemingly endless series of short-term attractions until they find someone who can give them room to keep growing and exploring themselves and their potential. Like most aspects involving Pluto, Venus-Pluto people can fit into one of two extremes, either totally, compulsively joined at the hip with a partner or—having been badly burned—totally turned off to the idea of having a relationship at all. Venus-Neptune types don’t just want to commit, they want to merge, so they can become addicted to love and immerse themselves in one codependent relationship after another.
As for Venus-Saturn aspects, many with this combination are gravely reluctant to enter into a partnership for several reasons. For one, they’d find it a binding agreement that entails a lifetime commitment and tremendous responsibility. Second, they’re extremely conscious of roles in general and the traditional male-female roles of spouse and parent in particular, and so in committing to a partner they’d also be committing to a role that they may or may not wish to fulfill. For many of them, their career represents a deeper level of soul commitment that entering into a relationship and parenthood would detract from. Finally, most Venus-Saturn individuals believe that they have to earn love by working hard at it and generally don’t believe that they’re inherently loveable. To avoid the rejection they anticipate, they may retreat behind a wall and focus on their career or take on heavy responsibilities.
When an individual fits into the not relationship prone category, healing work is often needed to change decisions about relationships that they have made at a very deep level. One major barrier to a relationship in this lifetime is a vow of either chastity or eternal commitment to a particular soul made in this or other lifetimes. Such vows and decisions may not be conscious, but they hold great power and need to be revoked consciously and explicitly in some form of ritual in order for a new relationship to be possible.
To one divorcee who wrote to my Dell Horoscope advice column to ask when she’d finally meet someone, I wrote, “I don't know if you fall into the not-prone category or if you're just having a long dry spell, but the fact that you were married previously seems hopeful. Given your Mars-Venus-Pluto conjunction in Virgo, you may have taken your wedding vow of, ‘til death do us part’ very literally, and thus may need to make a conscious re-decision about that before you can allow yourself a second marriage. To do so, you might use the technique of writing a canceling-out and reprogramming statement 70 times a day for 7 days--something like, ‘I revoke any vow of eternal fidelity I may ever have made to my ex-husband.’

Donna Cunningham is an internationally respected astrologer and the author of 13 books on metaphysical topics.
Donna Cunningham has a dual background in astrology and psychotherapy, with a Masters in Social Work from Columbia University and over 30 years experience as a professional astrologer. She considers doing the astrology charts of children to be a sacred trust. It is a way of knowing who these Indigo children are on their own terms rather than as their families, teachers, and society expect them to be.
In these sessions, she focuses on typical childhood concerns such as family and peer relationships, the best educational approaches, and the child's special gifts and abilities. She can be reached for consultations at (503)291-7891, by email, or at her web page. Ask about her special rate for children's charts.
Donna is also co-editor of Vibration and a frequent contributor. She has written fourteen books on astrology and other metaphysical topics, including her Flower Remedies Handbook. Astrologers who want to know the special considerations involved in doing children's charts can read the chapter on this topic in Donna's text, The Consulting Astrologer's Guidebook.
Listed in several Who’s Who volumes, she has given seminars on astrology around the world and won the prestigious Regulus Award at the 1998 UAC.
