Astrology Explored

Forget about spying lipstick on the collar, checking the emails, or skimming through the incoming calls on the cell phone. Some people are so good at lying you aren’t going to catch them that way.

And in a “you only hurt the ones you love” moment, studies show that up to twenty two percent of people cheat in a relationship even if they are happy in their relationships. Contrary to popular belief, keeping your honey happy does not guarantee that they will stay faithful.

It is unethical for an astrologer to read someone else’s chart without their permission, but there are sneaky ways to find out the state of your relationship by looking at yours. This is what this astrologer calls “dirty astrology”, the stuff that makes other astrologers squirm. “It doesn’t have to mean that!” comes the protest. Nope, it doesn’t. But many times it does.

Disclaimer: This is a strictly “do not try this at home” procedure. Reading for infidelity should only be done by an experienced astrologer who can put the whole chart in perspective and context.

Now that you’ve had all the standard warnings, this is how it is done, how an astrologer finds out if your significant other is a lying, cheating skunk.

First, your natal chart. Love and sex are ruled by the planets Venus and Mars, respectively. Another personal planet, Sun, Moon, or sometimes Mercury in Pisces, or Neptune making and energetic connection to Venus or Mars, or to a personal planet in your seventh house of relationships sets up a scenario of potential self-deception in the love and conquest areas of your chart. When you have these natal connections this is a serious challenge to you to remain absolutely truthful with yourself about the people with whom you pick to have relationships As an example, let’s say you like them a little rough around the edges, a real Uranian type, danger boy or danger girl. Do you really think these people can settle down to domestic bliss? If you do, you are letting your illusions about love and romance get in the way of finding a relationship that will sustain you instead of drain you.
An alternate method is identify the planet in your chart that resonates most closely with your relationship. Either the Sun or Saturn or sometime Uranus for the woman, Venus or the Moon for a man and check out how the transits, which we will talk about below, play out on them. In practice, most of the time the two methods confirm the conclusions of the other.

Having identified the natal connections in your chart that relate to your relationships, you now look for which planets moving in sky, which astrologers call transits, make energetic connections to that structure. The planet making the connection tells the tale of how it plays out. With Venus, your partner is looking for some tea and sympathy, with Mars, sex. Jupiter throws the relationship issues in your face, Uranus indicates a break-up, Neptune indicates that you are not seeing the issue clearly and Pluto brings issues, sometimes violently, of power and control.

Conjunctions, that is planets sitting on one element of the natal connection, are very powerful, and usually signal a time when the full force of the natal connection structure comes into play. It is time when it is very likely your partner is cheating on you, or you on them.

Squares, the challenge aspect, indicate a time of stress in the relationship. You are not seeing issues clearly.

Inconjuncts, the stress aspect, shows real commitment issues. Here today, gone tomorrow, your partner is driving you nuts by his or her indecision. Affairs are your partner’s way of distancing him or herself from the emotional issues.

Trines and Sextile, friendly aspects, just makes it easier for them to cheat with no guilt on their part.

Now you have the basic down and dirty of how an astrologer ‘scopes if your partner is cheating on you. Use this information with care.
