HAVEN’T WE MET BEFORE?
From the first moment they meet they’re convinced that they know each other. And, in fact, this relationship is the most likely to begin with a massive confession session in which each feels compelled to tell ALL to the other. Afterward, neither can believe the inner meaning they just told this person for no apparent reason. The soul link is profound and often signaled by a strong physical sensation. But it is not remotely lust-driven. It is, rather, a palpable shock of recognition – not the ‘You ARE me’ feeling generated by some of the other connections. It’s a feeling of ease and luxury, like leaping into a hot opulent bath after battling through a long and stormy day of mundane crap. They feel understood as if for the first time and all of the ancient angst seems suddenly solved. This is one of the most likely together forever soulmating scenarios.

DÉJÀ VU!
Love comes quickly as neither party in this magical pair-bonding can believe their luck. They are often introduced by mutual friends who seem to sense their extreme compatibility well before this couple gets it. Somehow, a bizarre factor seems to come between these two at first – there is always a challenge to overcome. Perhaps the strong presence of an ex-lover? Domineering or disapproving family? Total fear of succumbing to the passion? Whatever it may be. The couple either race off in different directions (yet never quite forgetting the feelings evoked by the other) or become much closer by joining to dissolve the love obstacle. Get between these two at your own peril. More than any other type of couple, they deeply admire one another and will do whatever it takes to protect their romance from toxic emotions or outside interference.

And these were the categories we fell into:
HAVEN’T WE MET BEFORE?
KARMA DRAMA!

The entire circumstances behind how we met(and the current situation) is in of itself abnormal, but then again I never really was interested in normalcy.

No, really, I hated the idea of a "vanilla" relationship. It felt like to be vanilla, was to restrain yourself to a set of emotions and feelings and "that's it"

So, here's the story: I was all of 12 years old at the time(maybe 13). Back then, it was 2004. Back then, Computers were still in their infancy(Dial-up, Lulz XD). But my mom had brought a PC and I who was notoriously bullied finally found an outlet. A world, I thought that would accept me. Well, that's been a mixed bag.

The internet has not spared me from debates, and I in fact have entered several of them willingly. But, in IRC(Internet Relay Chat) things had changed for me. The young 13 year old male for whatever reasons, decided to 'date' this woman online. Now, for whatever reason we never really asked each other for our ages so I wasn't quite aware that we were 6 years apart.

But that difference was soon apparent, as when it came to sexuality and other things my lack of understanding exposed me for what I was: A greenhorn in the world of relationships. But then, I met her younger sister.(About 4 months older than me, give or take)

And here's where the weirdness starts: It was an immediate attraction. I was still 'dating' the older sister at the time, but the younger one pulled moves on me and I equally was heads over heels. She was beautiful, smart and intelligent. Moreso than me, which left me in admiration.

I was on Cloud 9, this person loved me when no one else could truly love me. This person could accept me, whereas others at best were 'obligated' by law to do so. She had no rhyme or reason for doing so, but she did anyway.

But, because I was admiring her so much I didn't bother to *understand* her. We both had a special connection, we could stay silent for hours at a time. Not because we had nothing to say, but because our thoughts were being conveyed through our feelings.

Unfortunately, I didn't ask for her name. Nor an address, or anything like that. I had assumed the relationship would last forever. It's not like she had asked for any of these things either but still.

This beautiful mistress lived in the wonderful country Japan, a country that inspired me even before I met her, but it became even more inspirational and crucial to me after meeting her. At any event, one day she had asked if she could leave the relationship.

And I still find it weird that she asked me to do something that was in her natural right as a free human being to do. In my heart, my tugs were pulling towards saying 'no' but in my mind, because she's a radical beauty, because she's the pure expression of strength,resolve and elegance. I knew I had to let her go.

I also did it because I had assumed our friendship would also last for eternity. But the very last time I heard of her, I asked if I did anything wrong and she said "Nothing". And vanished.

Now, at 23 years of age(In about 48 hours from now). I'm still thinking of her. My first love who allowed me to grow sexually. My first love who believed in me earnestly without judging me.

The truth, which I somewhat withheld from Auby during my forum post on that other karmic dealings was that I tried to mold that inmate into my first love's image.

Accepting that I may not see her again, I tried to find someone who could equally inspire me. If she was a golden diamond, then maybe I can live pleasantly with a platinum one.

But that's a lie, I realized to myself. If it's not Lady-sama, it's not good enough. I want to be her's for all eternity. I want to be her husband, that she can always depend on and rely upon.

Auby recently wrote a forum that the stars are aligning for karmic stuff between soul mates. I feel like that's true, because she's been on my mind nonstop for the past two months. Someone I first fell in love when I was 12, who disappeared from my life about 16-17 is once again front and foremost in my head and my heart.

With the determination this time, to never let her go. That is assuming that fate/universe/cosmos will find a way to help me travel across the pond and then once I accomplish that much the bigger question will be: How will you isolate one woman from 120 million residents?

With Virgo(ex-husband):
OPPOSITES ATTRACT BUT FIRST REPEL! Your friends suggest therapy as soon as possible but you don’t give a damn what the shrink thinks. Nobody from the outside ever really gets this love affair but the people involved don’t care. Not for one second. It is most likely to begin via an act of rebellion from one half of the pairing. Somehow, one of them is in riot about society and its expectations, so disillusioned and over love that it’s not funny. This romance pops up as the proverbial bolt from the blue and each heals the other. It can even materialize like this: a brief encounter, a few words spoken and someone heads home to his or her life, the practical details of being together on a day-to-day basis bore this pair. They often seem to wind up in a dynamic that encourages them to polarize like a long—-distance romance or some reason why they can’t be too involved with one another’s family. That’s how it goes. And, as you might expect, this is an attraction that can quickly blow over. But, when t doesn’t? It lasts forever and a day, and still nobody understands.

ALWAYS ON MY MIND!
Always evolving, this relationship is perpetual poetry in motion or a non -stop work in progress. It is as if each ‘adoree’ must make constant — if tiny — attitude adjustments in order to let the love affair shine. If one or the other gets too stuck in a certain paradigm the whole liaison starts to stall or, if they are not careful, bog down. It is amazing how often this romance is characterized by one of the parties loathing (or at least not much liking the other person. Yet, if this is the case, there will nonetheless be a kind of incessant buzz at the back of their mind. Once sighted, these guys are never out of one another’s minds. Another astro clue: they often meet each other at a time of personal crisis. The mutual emotion is like ‘Woah! Or now this! They are also highly likely to be a rebound affair – albeit one that may go on forever!

*His Eros in Libra, my Psyche in Taurus; We realized very early on that we were like oil and vinegar, but the coincidences between us made it more than what it was. I was in love with the idea of love(I was 17), and he was a troubled soul looking for someone to hold on to. People never understood us, and our families hated that we were together. We started off together as him protecting me from being taken advantage of in college(I just turned 17) and we hadn't seen each other in that light until he told me that we should just be together. From then, we spent every moment together literally(I flunked my first semester because of that), until things went sour.

With Pisces(my break-up rebound):
INSTANTANEOUS COMBUSTION! Wow! This is the classic love-at-first-sight scenario. So often it seems as though fate genuinely conspires to bring these two together under the most bizarre of circumstances. For example, she shouldn’t have been there that night but she was and so she met him. When these two soul mates get together, each feels as though they are somehow coming home, its similar to the sensation felt by a child, bored at a totally adult party, suddenly meeting another kid. No matter what the differences or even the geographical and cultural distance between them! They bond on the spot and forever at some level. Even if this duo meets but once, they will never forget one another and that encounter. And yet, this is the most likely relationship to go the distance, no matter what. Both people can’t help but immediately sense the significance of the chemistry between them. They can run and they can hide but never deny the attraction.
Love comes quickly as neither party in this magical pair-bonding can believe their luck. They are often introduced by mutual friends who seem to sense their extreme compatibility well before this couple gets it. Somehow, a bizarre factor seems to come between these two at first – there is always a challenge to overcome. Perhaps the strong presence of an ex-lover? Domineering or disapproving family? Total fear of succumbing to the passion? Whatever it may be. The couple either race off in different directions (yet never quite forgetting the feelings evoked by the other) or become much closer by joining to dissolve the love obstacle. Get between these two at your own peril. More than any other type of couple, they deeply admire one another and will do whatever it takes to protect their romance from toxic emotions or outside interference.

*We met in high school in the parking lot one day before class started. The world literally stopped!!!Very sudden attraction that scared both of us and we avoided each other as he was friends with my then "boyfriend", and I wanted to keep my virginity(it was that intense). We laughed a while back that we were each other's itch; that urge to scratch that kept coming up no matter how hard you kept scratching. My guy and I broke up towards the end of my senior year, so we decided to talk to see if we could start something, but I chickened out and we went our separate ways. For years, even while I was married, he would pop up and create all kinds of tension in my life. Finally, after my marriage ended, he and I got together, and yeah....all of the above descriptions.

Mr. Scorpio(my LTF):
COLLABORATORS IN LOVE: Serendipity strikes hard and fast as these two suddenly wake up to the fact that they’re fully in love. Yes, this couple is the most likely to al ready know one another – perhaps they are even the cliched just good friends, when suddenly one night, IT happens. Oh, dear. There so naturally compatible and happy together that they often bond on a purely platonic level, knowing right from the start that this person is someone they want to have in their lives indefinitely. Consciously or otherwise, they don’t want to blow it via some psychodramatic lust scenario. So? So they suppress their real feelings. Should true love run its destined course, this couple is a teamworking duo evoking sustained mutual stimulation to help them ride out the ruts of long-term love. The best expression of this relationship is that of real partnering. They’re mates in every sense of the word.
YOU ARE MY EVERYTHING!
This tender romance has the potential to be the clingiest of all. Once pair-bonded, this couple can be almost inseparable. They literally find being parted from one another to be that irksome. Some have love at first sight, others get a bolt from the blue; peace relationships are often built on emotional or social togetherness before any passion sneaks in. This doesn’t mean there isn’t any excitement — it just means the tension builds to the heat of that first kiss. These guys know each other by the way each feels serene or kind of blessed out by the whole thing. Life itself seems to conspire to bring them together. Its as it they can see all the ‘fragile handle with care’ areas of other relationships or not only tread around them but actually heal the psychic scars from any ancient angst.

*Besides the Moon/Pluto DW, the Venus/Pluto DW, the Venus/Mars DW, and Venus conjunct NN in 8th/Mars conjunct NN in 5th, Vertex/Destinn conjunct NN.....these descriptions don't even tell a fraction of it. We met through friends of friends, and immediately felt a kinship to each other. The attraction didn't come till later, and now we are trying to figure out where we stand. That Venus/Pluto and Moon/Pluto is more than just clingy....it's downright obsessive.

Psyche in Scorpio, the most introspective and intense of the Water signs, implies deep empathy. You can be very empathic towards those you feel connected to, and they will feel like you can read their minds when you're with them. You sense their emotions and sometimes react in your own way as though they are your emotions, even though they are emotions reflected upon you.

In relationships: You yearn for a deep understanding from a partner, his desires must meet yours on a level that you will feel love-making as soul-union. You tend to feel things to the core, and you react with all your being. You want to share a meaningful unity with your partner. Your intense emotions are often tempered with a secret shyness and a respect for you partner, provided he treats you with equal respect.

The Soulmate union that you seek and offer is one that is beautiful, transcendent and cosmic in nature. A connection with you gives them a sense that you blow their mind!

The love that you need is not found in those who are just physical or material. You need depth, understanding, meaningfulness and love from a person who would be able to offer you emotional safety and security, equality, true love and fulfillment.

You wish for someone who would be able to dream with you, be awake with you, hold you when you're feeling weak, support you in emotional ways to keep you strong and focused. A person strong enough to be your equal. A mate strong enough to stand naked in their soul, meeting your true self behind all your façades.

Don't deny your hidden true self, or wait for someone to give you permission to be who you really are. The answer to the question of you cannot be someone else's job to answer, it's yours. Your secret heart desires to be found, accepted, loved, cherished, adored and embraced. Be it in friendship, in love or in marriage.
