Fertile Alliances and Revolutionary Advances

A friend sends me fun horoscopes written by Rob Brezney (www.robbrezney.com). I have no idea where she reads them.  Like her, I like the off the wall nature of some of them.  This arrived in my email inbox on 23-Dec-08 (I am a cancer). 

To get ready for 2009….fantasize in depth about the fertile alliances that might be possible for you to cultivate in the coming months…These lively bonds could be with people you haven’t met yet….The coming year has the potential to bring revolutionary advances in the quality and intensity of your relationships, so it will be smart for you to work hard on making that happen. 

I will leave you guessing which words got me the most.  Suffice it to say, I thought this could be a great theme for 2009 so I stuck it on my wall above my computer screen. Each time I clap eyes on it, I get this curious feeling.  What are “revolutionary advances”?  And what does this mean for me?

If revolutionary=a sudden, complete or marked change/ radically new or innovative/ outside established procedures and principles

and

advances=attempts at forming an acquaintanceship/progress in space/ actions or words intended to be sexually inviting

What would cause a revolt in my life and fast forward me into cultivating these fertile alliances?  I could start trusting my intuition in my life (not just in my coaching) and let it be my guide. I could start being really direct, courageous and provocative. I could start to infuse more intensity into every encounter.  Well, truth be told, I am very happy with the quality and intensity of my relationships because they are mine and they are real and they are always in progress which gives me lots of room to improvise.  And the people I haven’t met yet, well, there are so many exciting possibilities there.  I have room in my life for a male partner, kids, new family members, friends, tango partners, clients, colleagues, and pets.  It’s spellbinding to think of the twists and turns a life takes with each new being that appears in our lives–whether for a flash or forever.

Around the time this horoscope was coming my way, I was playing matchmaker for the first time.  I have long been a matchmaker in matters of business and so it was only just before Christmas that I tried my hand in matters more intimate. My intuition told me to do it.  I questioned where it was coming from and then just went ahead and organized the set up. The worst that could happen, I decided, is that two wonderful and impeccable people (from different corners of my universe but who live in the same city which is no longer my city) would get together for a drink and that would be that.  And I used this logic with the guy as he was reticent to jump in and go for it. Well a drink turned into hours of talking which turned into brunch the same weekend which led to a few more dates in rapid succession and …..if you haven’t guessed already, a relationship is blossoming. Amid telephone giggles (the woman) and shy emails of thanks (the man) , these two people are making plans to have each other in their lives.

In my meandering above, I find myself wanting a nice tidy conclusion.  So here it is.  Revolutionary advances are where it’s at.  And I don’t believe it has to be hard work.
