Today’s Oracle takes us to the Leo weekly for Aug. 15, 2003.
You may be noticing the subtle perils of relationship a little more clearly than usual. For example, the problem with experiencing partnership as a primary rather than secondary identity is the fragmenting quality this can create within your sense of self, particularly now. This works no matter how attractive you are — and you’re surely appearing in the radar of the people around you as eminently attractive these days. If they told you the truth, most people would admit that being attractive gets them into more trouble than it gets them out of. You’ll get past this, but for now, keep your eyes open and your priorities on yourself.
Note, The Oracle is a random selection from the Eric Francis horoscope archives. Each day we publish one entry from among the 10,000 in our database. It’s a little slice of horoscope history — but chosen by our Oracle program, which always speaks to the present moment. New horoscopes are published each Friday plus twice a month in Planet Waves subscriber edition and Planet Waves Light. And for your 2012 annual reading, you’ll find Revolution. Revelation. Reality Check.
“You may be noticing the subtle perils of relationship a little more clearly than usual.”
This sounds so terrified; as though relationships are that frightening. I keep hearing this fear; fear of losing freedom, fear of losing yourself, fear of losing options, fear of losing something un-namable, fear of missing out. What is that fear all about? I don’t find relationships that frightening. No matter how much I change in the relationship the core that is still me is always there; pristine and strong. The changes that came from the relationship have been good ones and do not drown the me inside. My guess is that this fear comes from being in a place I was once in but am not now. I owe that in large part to who my partner is and to my own intuition in choosing him.
I would say that those fears may have a legitimate base but to keep approaching relationships from that position of fear will not create healthy relating. Just my two cents; your experience may vary.
bwaaahahahahahahahhahaaa!!!!
oh… fuck….. oh, oracle, you’ve done it again. have you been reading my diary? or snooping in my emails? or just reading my mind? especially the first half of this oracle. just not sure how to re-wire what often feels like some solidly hard-wired tendency to identify with a relationship as primary identity. can feel pretty hopeless most of the time, to be honest. oy.
hoo boy. i needed to hear this RIGHT NOW.
but i would add, priorities on myself, and other projects.
