We just have to work with what we are given.  I know a couple who had horrible synastry but made their marriage work.  On astrology sites you read the "reviews" of celeb couples with great synastry who get divorced and those for whom astrologers predicted disaster seem happily married.

I can recall a boyfriend when I was in my twenties with whom I had all the "hot" aspects and it didn't last.  He constantly cheated on me and I never felt secure.  At this point in my life I don't need a grand passion but rather someone who can "go the distance" and be a true friend whom I can trust.  Of course, we have to have basic compatibility on all levels.

True. If I remember correctly, the synastry between Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie ain't so hot. And, well, just look at those fuckers, going the distance like the Waltons. Ha. I've always been fascinated by Elizabeth Taylor, especially her tumultuous relationship with Richard Burton. I forget how many husbands she had but she always said that Burton and Mike Todd were her soul mates. Interesting stuff.

i think i read that site, but the "hidden" synastry with the successful couples are very strong and very compatible. but you're right, though.

i was so curious about their relationship, since getting into astrology because it was mentioned. Well, i honestly thought they did love eachother, but they can't be with eachother, because she was toxic for him. (he wanted to quit drinking and she was enabling alot of that -- i guess he didnt want an enabler?) I'm not really quite sure, because she was sure devastated after Todd's death, and i heard that she broke up the marriage of Mickey Rooney and Debbie Reynolds, because Rooney and her slept together. (there's alot of drama going on!) well i dont know. She has had 8 husbands. But hey, look at Zsa Zsa Gabor. lol   also married 8 times too!! she had no shame either, saying, many fun quotes, such as, "i believe in large families; every woman should have at least three husbands."

but in reverse, there are men who marry alot too! Cher's ex husband Greg Allman married six times, and Joe walsh of the Eagles, married 5 times. I think more than 3 times is alot. I'm sure there's plenty but i'd have to research. eta: David Carradine, also 5 times.

My 4th house Scorpio sun, Venus, Jupiter, Neptune and NN fall into my husbands 8th house.

Elisa, it was Eddie Fisher. My dad will soon be on his fifth marriage! My great-uncle, an Aquarian rodeo clown,  had six marriages.

oh thanks. i should've re-checked. Rooney was with tons of marriages and with that Eva Gardner who was actually more in love with Frank Sinatra. wow. A whole lot of drama going on in the celeb world.  Having too many marriages in a person's file would scare me. I would be thinking, jeezzzz!! i'm gonna be next in line for a break up. Cause this Guy's not serious about sticking till the end (barring extreme abuse ect). (this is in a scenerio if i were single and had to date and see a file long of many marriages) I wouldn't blame anyone else if they thought the same thing.

eta: not to offend but thats probably my earthy parts thinking, no way. i'd understand where even my capricorn mother in law comes from.
