Guest guest Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 I don't totally agree about people who get married before 25 are more prone to divorce.Let say about India,people or say girls are geting married at a age of 19-20 years and there life is more successful than people who are getting married at a age after 25 or 26 years. A reason for this is that,you know about life so much that,you start hating it afterwards,By the time saturn comes again in your natal chart,You have completed first round of your life.Now it is time to go in second round.So most people's life changes during this phase of life.That does mean you should get married after that age.Ya to certain extent what you trying to say is right,that understanding,support and values will come after that age. But marriage is not only about those things,those things will develop with age,but it is also about loving ,having fun together,exploring ourselves with a world.Being together,This is possible only at a young age,If you do this,than understanding,caring will come for each other with a age.Life is to Live not to understand. --- MuMin Bey <mumin_bey wrote: Hi All, Since we're kind of on this tack, I thought to throw this at ya. We've all read and heard about Saturn's role in terms of overall maturation. But I think what we don't consider nearly enough is this ringed planet's role in relationships and marriage. Classically, Saturn is exalted in Libra - Venus' sign. There is a link established between these two unlikely planets. If one takes the time to study the history and purpose of marriage, particularly in the Western context, one can easily see the connections between this institution's development and Saturn's Western classical exaltation. We all know that any contact between Venus and Saturn tends to suggest a " toning down " a " chilling " of the emotions. A delay, strategic, emotional, or otherwise, can occur in terms of the " blooming " of Venusian dimensions. Looked at in the way we are daling with here, it can suggest a slow, steady building of relationship; permanance, purpose, and committment are the keys. We all know the state of affairs as it relates to marriage here in the USA. Divorce rates are at all-time high levels. Additionally, we know from many studies produced by those who work in such fields, that the YOUNGER a person is when they marry, the MORE LIKELY they are to divorce later on. Most researchers tend to agree that, in our society, a person who marries before age 25 has a tremendous set of odds stacked against them in terms of making their marriage last in the long term. But we astrologers have an additional insight when it comes to these and other matters. It is called the Saturn Return. This period, usually occuring between 28 to 30 years of age, is a time when transiting Saturn returns to its natal placement in the chart. This entire period reflects a very important time of life; it is a time when a person truly becomes an adult in our society. How many of us have seen couples who marry prior to their Saturn Return, only to divorce not soon after? I think a major reason for this has to do with the fact, for most people, they haven't really come into their own, so to speak. Saturn represents " the harsh reality " , and marriage is a huge responsibility and committment. In our ever increasing freedom oriented, individualistic worshipping culture, such concerns are easily tossed aside. In particular, in my view, Saturn tying itself into either the 7th house and/or Venus in the chart, and/or Saturn Rx, is even stronger signal that caution and preparedness is needed when it comes to the question of marriage. Time, experience, confidence-building and emotional maturation are needed before such a massive undertaking is done. I think, more than we may want to admit or even realize, that Saturn's role is very, very important when it comes to considering the question of marriage or serious, committed longterm relationship.

Guest guest Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 I think that in the USA it's true that people should wait a while to marry. India's different. I think the roles of men and women are more proscribed there ... that's neither good or bad. ....
