This Month's Questions;Each month, Madam Lichtenstein graciously answers those burning questions you've sent her. Consulting both your astrology chart and/or her Tarot cards, she uses her years of experience, common sense and innate talents to send you along on your journey well-equipped and well-informed. Here are this month's questions!
Q. I am Sagittarius (dec. 4 1979) and my girl is a Pisces (march 10,
1980). We go well together but is this a long term match?
A. You have Sun in sagittarius, moon (how we express our emotions) in gemini and venus (how we express our love) in capricorn. Your girlfriend has Sun in Pisces, moon in sagittarius and venus in taurus. This is a nice compatibility - your basic personality is in sync with her emotional make-up - friendly, honest, easy going and worldly Sag. The way you express your love (venus) trines her venus - a great connection. And her basic personality meshes well with your expressions of love.
Q. After a nasty break-up and following depression two years ago, I am REALLY scared to be in another relationship and even go out of my way to avoid people that something romantic might happen with. At the same time, I think about being alone for the rest of my life and feel sad about that. What's your advice?
A. I know that it is easier said than done, but you will learn to trust again. You have sun n Libra which stives for equilibrium, diplomacy, harmony and love so it is in your basic nature to seek beauty, love and harmony. You have venus (the planet of love) in expansive, generous leo so you will not feel quite right until you have someone with whom you can share things with and spoil with lavish gifts. As a sunny Sag myself, I have always subscribed to the addage, "What is the worst that can happen?" in love situations. Not that I wear my heart on my sleeve, but if something moves to the next level, what is the hard in giving yourself a little latitude? What is the worst that can happen? Rejection? So what! You can pick yourself up and try again and you may even be stronger for it. Give it a try. She is out there waiting for you. Go find her.
Q. Madame, I am a strong minded Libra with a heavy dose of the romantic optimist. My one fault, I suppose. I had a long crush on a warm, cynical woman one day and one year older than me who I thought was my goddess. When told about it, she kindly refused me. Since then, however, she has become like Jekll and Hyde. Sweet one moment and sour the next. Doesn't return calls, stands me up on outings, etc. The last time was IT. I refuse to do anything until she wants to repair our friendship, which I valued. Will that ever happen? And when will I get that loving girl who I so crave?
A. Forget about this one - I checked the tarot and the Sun card came up - getting your big wish! And I see you meeting her through work (5 of pentacles). So what are you waiting for?
Q. I just recently met the woman of my dreams, and after a whole three weeks of knowing her I proposed and she said yes. It feels so right and she thinks the same....am I rushing into things or am I maybe a little scared?
A. I don't have her birth information to compare to yours but why ask why? BTW, the tarot cards say "long term profitability" (10 of pentacles). Hmmm.
Q. Do Aries and Pisces make good couples? And how long does the relationship between them last? Could it lead to something big?
A.Sun sign compatibility is not the whole story. I check moon signs (how we express our emotions) and venus ( how we express our love) to get a clearer picture. So send on both of your birth informations and I will have a look :-)
Q. I am in a very bad place. My house is under construction, I am suffering depression and PTSD, I am tired, lonely, and extremely bored. There are many possibilities, but I seem to have dug myself into a horrible hole I don't know how to get out of. I'm not sure I even want to stay here, so why am I spending all my money on my house? What should I do for work -- I am currently not doing anything and it is not okay (psychologically, spiritually). There is some opportunity with e-marketing, but I am not sure. I would like to travel, but have never managed it. ANd I am terribly lonely. I don't even know where to begin, but getting out of bed has got to be a first step. Can you give me any direction? Help me prioritize or eliminate some possibilities. Where should I be looking for companionship and friendship? Whatever I am doing now is just wrong!
A. I checked the tarot for you for the next six months and it looks like you need to make a complete break with old habits (3 of swords) and be a student again (The Fool) and experience life with new eyes and an open mind. There is a woman (Queen of Hearts) - beautiful, creative and kind- who you can meet in a course of study (7 of wands). Seems to me you should take a class or five.
Q. I am a 29 year old lesbian, who has been committed to a fabulous woman (her birthdate is 7/19/76-born in Germany not posititve on time)for almost 3 years. She really wants a family, and I am reluctant (more so afraid). My question is this--what do you see for our future, 1 year time frame.
A. The tarot sees a wonderful year! You will overcome your difficluties (5 of swords) have a wonderful partnership (3 of cups) and have long term profitability (10 of pentacles). Not bad! Astrologically, you will be emerging out of your Saturn Return (at age 30) which is a three year period of frustration, change and stress. Go with what you have learned over the past three years and build a life of happiness and fulfillment. Maybe you will hear the pitter patter of little feet. I don't mean cats!
Q. I just got married in july 2000, his b-day is aug 19, 1968 will we be togeather for a long time? Will i also ever have sex with my ex his b-day is March 3, 1966?
A. So let me understand this. You just got married ... to a man... and you want to find out if you are going to have sex with your ex ...who is also a man? Next!
Q. is there romance anywhere in the future for this lonely Virgo? i wrote couple months ago about my girlfreind who couldnt seem to tell me the truth about anything. i seem to be having trouble getting over the fact that womyn can be so replacable at any time. OH look theres someone better!!! does anyone belive in in trying and not just walking when things dont go there way? Lost :(
A. I asked the tarot how the next six months will look for you and guess what? She is out there but you have to go out and find her. I see romance (5 of cups) and overcoming your difficulties (5 of swords) by applying yourself (2 of pentacles) to an unusual (older-younger-different race or religion etc) love interest. SO what are you waiting for?????
Q. Capricorn just slipped away from me after 2 intense years. (we moved right in together, after she got kicked out from lover before) Sex still hot, but won't sleep together, just cause. She has gone non-monog, and likes it a lot. Am i fit for open relationship? Can i become an ethical slut? will she?
Her good friend is now in love with me. I can never go from out of love right into love, but she is a gem. Except, she lives 4,000 miles away. She's a Cappy too... and so far is into nurturing relationships. We've had a few days of marathon sex. We're having a domestic test run for a few weeks in summer.
What is your opinion, outlook for me, us? to go from one extreme to the next? Is that really what i'm doing? I've always reached for the un-available, but maybe not this time??? Will i move to be with her? How long do i have to wait?
A. Whew! I'm getting dizzy, sister! Okay, the tarot cards say that in order for this long distance relationship to have a chance, you must cut all ties to the past and have a rebirth (The Death card - not a bad card, but means new things bloom off the ashes of the past) I see some frustrations here and some negative waiting time. And as for you alone, young lady, I checked the cards again and I see you overcoming your difficulties on your own in the next six months. Think practically (Page of pentacles) and reduce stress (seven of wands with the knight of swords) and you can get back on an even keel in time to regroup and find a woman who is just right for you. Okay? Okay!
