Okay, so I’ve been messing around with this “Juno in Aquarius” thing lately, and let me tell you, it’s been a bit of a wild ride. It all started a few weeks ago when I stumbled upon some astrology stuff online. You know how it is, one minute you’re just browsing, and the next you’re down a rabbit hole of zodiac signs and planetary alignments. Anyway, I found this interesting tidbit about Juno, which is apparently some asteroid that has to do with partnerships and commitment. And mine’s in Aquarius, which got me thinking.
So, I started digging deeper. I read a bunch of articles and watched some videos, trying to figure out what this whole Juno in Aquarius thing meant for me. From what I gathered, it’s all about valuing freedom and intellectual connection in relationships. Like, you’re not about that traditional, tied-down kind of partnership. You need space to be yourself, and you want a partner who’s more like a best friend and intellectual equal, someone you can bounce ideas off of and who gets your quirks. I thought, yeah, that kind of rings true for me.
Here’s what I did first: I made a list of all my past relationships, romantic and platonic, and tried to see if there were any patterns. Did I always go for the same type of person? Was there a common thread in why things ended? It was actually pretty eye-opening. I realized that I do tend to gravitate towards people who are independent and a bit unconventional, just like me. And the relationships that fizzled out? Yeah, those were usually the ones where I felt stifled or like I couldn’t be myself.
- Made a list of past relationships: Looked for patterns in who I was attracted to and why things ended.
- Compared notes with my birth chart: Checked if other aspects of my chart aligned with the Juno in Aquarius traits.
- Talked to friends: Got their perspective on my relationship patterns and how they see me in partnerships.
- Reflected on my ideal partnership: Jotted down what I really want in a partner and what kind of relationship I envision for myself.
- Started paying attention to my interactions: Noticed how I act in different relationships and if I’m being true to myself.
Then, I went a step further: I compared my Juno placement with other parts of my birth chart. It was like putting together a puzzle. I saw that my Sun sign and my Moon sign also pointed towards a need for independence and intellectual stimulation. It was like the universe was screaming, “Hey, this is who you are! Embrace it!”
Next, I did something a bit out there: I talked to my friends about it. I asked them what they thought about my relationship patterns and how they saw me in partnerships. It was interesting to hear their perspectives. Some of them confirmed what I already suspected, while others offered new insights that I hadn’t considered.
After that, I got real with myself: I sat down and wrote about my ideal partnership. What do I really want in a partner? What kind of relationship do I envision for myself? It was a bit of a soul-searching exercise, but it helped me clarify my priorities and desires.
Finally, I started paying more attention: I started observing how I act in different relationships, both romantic and platonic. Am I being true to myself? Am I giving myself enough space? Am I communicating my needs effectively? It’s an ongoing process, but I feel like I’m becoming more aware of my patterns and how to navigate relationships in a way that feels authentic to me.
The Results?
Honestly, it’s been pretty cool. I feel like I understand myself better now, especially when it comes to relationships. I’m more aware of what I need and what I’m looking for. And I’m more intentional about the people I let into my life. It’s not about finding someone who’s “perfect” or who checks all the boxes. It’s about finding someone who gets me, who respects my need for freedom, and who’s up for exploring life’s big questions together. And I have to say, that feels pretty damn good.
