Fact is both the soldier and I have done copious amounts of psychological work. It was interesting to me when I first started writing about him another astrologer wrote to tell me what he should do to heal from his career. He basically thought a deep examination would be required and I wrote back to ask, “What makes you think he’s not done this?”

He has done this. He’s done it via his church. The soldier a devout Catholic who feels he may have committed a mortal sin. I vehemently disagree and he admits he may not committed a mortal sin, he may not have done anything wrong but you know these Catholics. Just in case!

So he went through a process with his church that took him years. Most people don’t this, you know? They do not put themselves through a rigorous self examination but he has and so have I.

I saw a psychologist weekly, for three years and I didn’t mess around. I got myself a PhD for starters and I ripped the lid of everything I could find at a pace and to a level that alarmed her. But I came out the other side obviously and now it’s almost 15 years later and I can say that by far that was the best money I have ever spent in my life.

So the soldier and I come together with these backgrounds. We have both been to the end of the continuum as far as experiences you can have go and we have both worked very hard after the fact to have a perspective on our lives. And we’re pretty together all in all. We’re pretty comfortable with ourselves and our lives but now look what happens.

He comes along and I come along and both of us have the ways and means to access each other at a deeper level than anyone else could manage. Part of the reason is because we are both so keen. Part of the reason is because we knew each other when we were kids before all the layers of junk got laid on. Part of the reason is probably unknowable but maybe you see the point I am making.

I have Saturn transiting my 8th house. Looks like I’ve got some more psychological (8th house) work (Saturn) to do. And it must be profound because look who was sent to bat clean-up!

And this brings classic Plutonian feelings. While I am repelled at the idea someone can get at me in a way I can’t manage alone, I am simultaneously wildly attracted at the possibility of discovering things I have not discovered before and integrating them so here we go. But this is supposed to be about merging souls so I will come back with that angle.

Meanwhile, are you interested in deep psychological analysis, or not so much? Do you have planets in the 8th?
