The mistake of prejudging through astrology compatability

There is a misconception that, through astrology, compatability of a relationship can be conclusively determined. Rather, astrology offers a method to predict and prepare for a relationship's inevitable challenges.

For example, square aspects are traditionally called "incompatible", but this oversimplifies the case. Actually, however, these relationships are not uncommon. This astrologer calls it the "growth-through-confrontation" relationship. Her point is that while this style of relationship is not for everyone, it can offer the opportunity for incredible growth as a couple or individuals:
The positive side of this type of relationship is that it provides a lot of energy and motivation to break out of old ways of relating. The only problem is that it can be very painful for all of those involved. Nevertheless, for those that are really committed to growing both individually and as a couple and who like a lot of fireworks in their relationship, the square relationship can be quite dynamic and can produce a lot of breakthroughs.
The moral of the story is that the stars are not telling you to give up on a relationship that you think has potential. Your astrology compatability is more like an early warning system to prepare you for what might be coming.
