Astro-Query: How Do You Know When It’s Over?

John Rae

My theory is that there is always ONE moment when an affair/marriage/crush/relationship is over.

You grok it and flip. It may not be the official oh-my-godding style situation but for you, personally, it is as unmistakable as falling IN love.

Psychically, it may as well be a freight train or something.

So, today’s question is simple – citing your Sun Sign (or more if you want to be fancy) what was the moment you knew a love was fading?

I’m not thinking so much those major, drastic and drama-queenie situations where he/she done you blatantly wrong.

More the quietly scary ones.

My feeling is that the Mutables – Pisces, Virgo, Sagg, Gemini – have more sensitive radar to teensy things that they feel are indicative of a general stagnating trend…which they can’t stand.

    During a long, life-changing illness, I asked my ex-husband how he felt. He answered that he was afraid that I would become a burden to him. That was it. After everything that had already happened in this relationship, it was this statement that flipped the switch. I was divorced within a few months, despite illness and resulting umemployment.

    As far as I can tell, all guys have “the snap.” One minute they love you, the next second they are suddenly over it. All that’s left is how long it takes him to get up the nerve to dump you afterwards.

    I have a question for you guys- which sign do you think is the most likely to stay with their first love?

      i think that was more of a generational issue…we tend to discard people more easily these days

    Wow. I’ve just had one. Coming home to realise we have a new housemate who rocks up at 12 midnight (has stayed with us before but i had no idea he was coming back). Wake up this morning, have a shower, go back to my room, he says hi and he thought I wasn’t living here anymore because my housemate (was having a thing with this person) did not mention me at all.
    Awesome. He’s a sagg. IS that over???? Any room for negotiations there? Maybe apologies on my half?

    I’m looking for tips too – but will share this one. I used to love a Leo and his particular smell, then one day I realised he just didn’t smell the same.

    He also told me I had wrinkles on my ears!!!! Virgo/Taurus North Node.

      You have just reminded me of something with my ex hub who I was with for like 15 yrs and 2 kids, when I went ‘off’ him but we were still living together, when we used to have s** and he used to deposit u know what, it made me itch and burn, like I developed a weird allergy to it

      strange..

    As you may have gathered over the past almost-year, I am the Queen of hanging onto something with both of my hands and all of my might even when it is getting crappy. Aqua sun; Toro asc; Pisces moon.

    Not keen to revisit specific moments right now, but was browsing in bookstore last night and the thought just flashed into my head, “That’s it – I’m not so much as even thinking about being in a relationship until I’ve taken some time out for me.” Looked up and saw a giant sign saying “ROMANCE.”

    The Universe has an awesome sense of humour.

    Scorp Sun, Cap Moon, Sagg Asc- Mars-Venus-merc

    Leo Sun, Pisc Moon, Sagg Asc- Mars-Venus-merc Ex: We were both 16 when we began. The first moment came 6 weeks into it, the hollow dropping feeling, the first of many. . . he did a full headtrip cos I went out with friends from work. I knew nothing back then. We went on to be together for 24 years and raise 5 sons. We had a whole life of joy and horrid crap. But five beautiful lads. The hollow moment happened so often towards the end it was a state of being, until when I went I felt I had to go or get sick and die from the inauthenticity. After six years apart, I am finally nearly over my identity crisis ( ha, I thought that was just a figure of speech lol). I have a life of my very own, and, like Alice, I am more of myself and have muchness :)

    Actually, I know the moment.
    It was kinda after the fact, as I’d been outa there for a while, but was back there because my sons were there, and I was pretty messed up missin him but not wanting to get back… suppose I didn’t know what I wanted. I was planning to stay with him that night. Yeh bad move. Wishful thinking? Well then I was stung under the little toe by a scorpion…!! WOW. Second one I’d ever seen in my life. Powerful omen. Big moment. Now I think it was a sign of a definite fork in the path. A choice. Or was it that it was truly over? Or… Thoughts?

    sag sun, gem moon, taurus ascendant,

    i knew it was a dud when:

    double cap, pisces rising ex: had a sulking fit when i told him i would go to europe with or without him

    gem sun, taurus moon, gem rising ex: when he stopped being physically affectionate, and got very selfish

    i tend to want to make it work though, so everyone’s had to break it off before I would.
    I’m hoping my new cap sun, kataka moon, libra rising man will be different.
    but we shall see.

    The last statement is so true. After 7 years I ended it with my boyfriend as he did something indicated things to come would just get worse. It may be small but as a Gemini it difinatley registered on my sensitivity radar.
