All you want, right now, is a quiet life. You've got a host of personal projects that you
want to pursue in peace. You want a chance to sit quietly, be still and 'find yourself'.
You also want a break from the dramas and traumas which, sadly tend to be so much
part and parcel of daily life in this modern world. And no, you really don't want
romance - or at least not romance in the superficial, exciting sense of the word.
Candlelight, you're quite happy to enjoy. You are, after all being influenced by the
goddess of fire. Flowers too, you'll willingly welcome. Hestia's home-making
influence extends to a deep appreciation of all things natural and earthy. Anyone
intending however, to sweep you away in a private jet to a sun kissed tropical island
can hop right back in their plane and find some far more lightheaded lady to take
instead. You wish her luck. What you want, far more than that, is just to stay in a
familiar place and feel comfortable. It's not that you're in an unadventurous mood.
It's more that the journey you're currently keen to undertake is one of inner
exploration. You want to meditate or practice yoga - or slowly tend your garden.
And do you want to do this with with anyone? Only if that person is as committed as you
are, to a simple, steady way of being. If there's a man in your world who is currently
in the midst of some major adventure or stressful saga, he can certainly count on your
for support and gentle re-assurance - but he'd better not be expecting you to get as
worked up about it all as he is. You're quite prepared to talk things though - indeed
you relish the intellectual challenge of solving people's problems, crossword puzzle
style, from a detached distance. You're also prepared, indeed more than willing to
empathize deeply with those you care for and even strangers. As soon though, as you
actively step into their world, you lose the ability to lead a placid, self contained
existence in your own.
The same 'refusal to be drawn' is the reason why you're not likely to end any existing
relationship, no matter how unsatisfactory, while Hestia is your guardian. Nor though
are you going to suffer or set about trying to solve a hopeless problem. You're simply
going to retreat into your shell, occupy yourself as productively possible and see what
happens when a little more time has passed. In so far as this can hardly be anything
other than a wise course, it's sure to bring the best result. But then, Hestia never leads
anyone to follow anything other than a sensible plan.
And if you're currently single? What you really need right now is a bright, witty man
with a deep understanding of life's more complex spiritual and psychological aspects.
He needs to be successful (not necessarily in the financial sense though you do find
'wheeler dealer types strangely attractive') and most importantly, he needs a great
