“Why Struggles Might Be the Secret Sauce to Strengthening Your Love Life!”

Added on January 24, 2025 inASTROLOGY CARDS

In a world that often feels like it’s turned upside down, finding the silver linings can be a tricky endeavor. Yet, amidst all the chaos, there’s one uplifting trend that’s unfolding—people are getting real about their relationships. It seems they’ve cast aside the whimsical fantasies of romantic love, opting instead for a sturdier bond that stands the test of time. It’s almost as if we collectively agreed to stop swiping left and right on compatibility while realizing that true connection isn’t just about the initial spark but about the comfort of knowing someone has your back through thick and thin. How refreshing is that? In this piece, I delve into how this shift in perspective reflects a broader societal change and why those who are committed today are clinging to their relationships like a lifeline. So, grab a cup of coffee, maybe even some popcorn, and let’s explore the evolution of love in our ever-complex world. LEARN MORE.

It’s a challenge to find positive things to say about the state of the world over the last five years.  But I can think of one good thing that’s come from it.  People are a lot less fickle in their relationships. They’re more realistic.  They are moving beyond the Psy-op that is Romantic Love.

I am not romanticizing hardship! I’m just noting what I observe since the Jupiter Neptune conjunction in Aquarius, which is when I first realized, we were going insane, collectively speaking.

Consequences Of Collective Delusion

Today, we have a good number of people swearing off relationships all together, for whatever reason. But those who are partnered are holding on.

I started a thread about this in the forum – The Reality of Lasting Relationships.  I like what, “Hades”, had to say:

“After a certain time frame, you really feel like you’re bonded via blood. Your friend/lover becomes your family too. When they’re happy, you’re happy, and vice versa. Without a second thought you’d donate an organ for their survival.

I love the comfort and dependability of a long term partner. It’s nice knowing you have someone always there for you. It’s great being loved for just being “you”. It’s no longer fireworks; it moves beyond that. A calm, spiritual, safe place. I would not exchange what I have for anything/anyone.”

I agree with this. It’s as if you cross the Rubicon, so to speak.  Even if you’re a “leaver” (like me), you’re going to stay. It stuns, as love has changed you in a fundamental way.

I understand I’m old, but I see this happening with younger people too. It’s so freakin’ hard to find someone you vibe with… SO HARD, you’re not to quick to throw your fish back in the sea.

I think this is a positive trend overall.  I want to put this out here for people who are looking. Keep looking!  And if you find someone, think about how you’re going to hold on and grow in the process.

Personally speaking, I enjoy being married, but I don’t find it easy at all.  But I’m very happy with how I’ve matured. I’m pretty sure I would have avoided this, had I stayed single.  I ad a long puppyhood as it was!

I also think life is just hard, in general. No wonder people partner up!

To be clear, I’m not talking about staying in horrible relationships.  I’m suggesting, if your relationship is viable, it’s often best to stick with it. The grass that looks greener, rarely is. You find this out upon closer inspection.

Do you see what I see? Or no?
