Something In the Water

So it would seem that something strange is going on. A ton of the people I know of or about are having problems in their relationships. I’d be curious to find out if there’s any “reason” or pattern to it, (astrology wise) or if it’s just that time of year. Speaking of that. Asher’s gone, and already misses being here. Poor guy ( Read more... )

You could also be a black man or really into black women.

I think relationship troubles and pairings up goes in waves. I've never determined what influences these waves, certainly it must be large to influence so many, so I've settled on the economy. Economic stress and do a lot of things.

Venus is in retro grade or something like that. Right now, other than a general depression over world policy, I can't... oh, wait... with soaring housing prices, the dream of buying your own home rockets further and further out of reach. So, as much as we're all doing okay financially, (more or less), we perceive that we're doing really badly.

Maybe I should put something into my profile about improving the economy? That would probably help, right?

I was thinking more that during an upswing or a downswing things are more chaotic in general and thus cause more stress which then impacts relationships. If you're doing well or poorly and things are steady you know where things stand and they are under control.

Could be, but isn't the economy recovering? Isn't that what the one media company here in the US is telling us?

But that's what I mean. The recovery is an up-swing which puts it in a chaotic state which causes more stress. If it were still down or up and staying up then it would be stable.
