Hello, I’m a new member, I have a very basic understanding of natal charts so I was hoping someone might be able to take at the charts I’m posting and provide some opinions. The August chart is mine and the January chart is that of my ex of 14 yrs. We split up about two years ago and he has been dating someone else since a few months after our break up. He has kept in touch every few months throughout this time and I’m very curious to know exactly why. The last time we spoke was about two weeks ago for about two hours, this was after 7 months of no contact. Our relationship was..tumultuous. It just surprises me he continues to contact me. Is it just the familiarity because we were together so long? Thanks to anyone that takes the time to reply.
Welcome, Kimmyness! I'll take a look in the morning. Hopefully others will weigh in!
Thank you so much!
We just went through Mercury Retrograde. Many times, during Mercury retrograde old boyfriends, exes... whatever's... contact us. Around here we call them corpses.
Also, he has Venus in Pisces. They can tend to pine for what is gone even though if it landed in their lap, they wouldn't want it back.
With Sagittarius on the 7th, Jupiter in Taurus, and Venus in Pisces, I’d see that as someone who would want to stay on good terms with a past partner if at all possible. You have Sagittarius on the DSC as well, and don’t seem to mind being in contact either(?).
He’s also airy and fiery and likely doesn’t see much of an issue with being friends with exes, being friends with the opposite gender, that sort of thing.
You have interesting syanstry. I can see why there would be conflict, but also why it would be such a significant connection and hard to let go of completely.
@buendia thanks for commenting. Actually he doesn’t tend to keep in contact with ex partners or really have female friends. We had a lot of conflict over things that could’ve completely been avoided, he was in a different place when the relationship started and has ( finally) grown up. . We could always have good conversations when things were going well, this last conversation was great, I felt completely comfortable which I haven’t in a long time. Anyway I guess I shouldn’t question so much, he does get a little flirty and that may be what confuses me. I don’t mind hearing from him, it’s good to know he’s been working on improving himself.
@kimmyness it can be frustrating and painful to see an ex grow and mature once a relationship ends. I hope things work out for you both.
