In this episode, Laura and Bernhard discuss the difference between karmic and toxic relationships and how we can heal from unconscious relationship patterns. They talk about how romantic love has replaced God in our materialistic western society, the different stages in an intimate relationship, the unconscious drives of romantic attraction, the true meaning of marriage, and more. In the second hour, they dive deeper into Evolutionary Astrological factors involved in relationships, the path towards Divine Union, how the ego tends to hijack that process, and the prerequisites for successful relationship work between partners. They discuss the blindspots of the polarity and "new [traditional/conservative] man" movements, suggestions on how to work with issues and conflict in relationships, and more.
