When will I get married? Exploring Soul Connections

Many people ask me, "I'm looking for 'the one'!" Or, "When will I get married?" ⠀

When a client or a friend is asking the if's and when's of marriage. I often suggest to rephrase the question to:

“When will I find a foundation and true shared connection in partnership with the ability to merge our lives together in possibly marriage or our definition of life long partnership?” ⠀

🤔 Why?⠀

• 💗 Some marriages end in divorce (or death). Marriage is the celebration & ceremony and not always the “partnership”. Some marriages can be less than 2 years - and the person finds their life partner in their second marriage or common-law (or after).⠀
• 💗 Some people can have two very fulfilling multi-year partnerships / marriages in their life time.⠀
• 💗 Relationships can be non-traditional⠀
• 💗 It's puts too much pressure on a new relationship, or a not yet existing relationship.⠀
• 💗Anxiety and friction can happen, for this new man / woman is "the one" ... and insecurities arise, "I've never felt a connection like this before."⠀
• 💗 Being open minded to a non-traditional marriage and relationship. I have a few clients who have gotten engaged, and have kept with a 5+ or 10+ year engagement to not get married. Marriage is a ceremony and celebration, and you can possibly meet "the one" sooner than the date predicted of marriage.⠀
• 💗 The truth is, in life we have a few partners that we can share life with as “the one” & “soulmate” …. I’ve seen this being no more than 3 opportunities, or choices in ones lifetime. ⠀

The core meaning behind The Lovers is a choice. Two people choose to live and navigate life in partnership. When we are able to face a big life choice, we grow. The power is in the choice and facing the decision, more so than the emotional connection.

Affirmations:

“I accept myself and love myself enough to face big decisions.”

“Love, forgiveness and understanding is the very foundation of my relationship.”
