“Will my business partnership be successful if we move forward with the investment?”
When Mark had been running a small but growing business for a couple of years he received a business plan from a potential partner. The deal sounded good; Mark’s business would have access to more resources, and the partnership could result in higher profits and development. But there was a problem. Mark had some concerns regarding his potential partner’s trustworthiness and whether the partnership would be good for his company in the long run. He was in a dilemma between expanding his business and staying with what he knew.
He didn’t know what to do next so he came to me for a horary astrology reading. His question was quite direct:
“Will my business partnership be successful if we move forward with the investment?”
Horary astrology is quite different from other forms of astrology in that it is not concerned with making long term predictions such as those made from a birth chart. It answers certain questions by looking at the positions of the planets at the time of asking the question. Mark’s question was clear and I could hear the doubt in his voice when we talked. He was at an intersection where he was about to make a decision that would change his life and the life of his business.
The horary chart that was created indicated that the partnership had its advantages and disadvantages which were worth looking at. The planets’ positions suggested that the investment could be good, but it wouldn’t be without its problems. The major aspects of the chart suggested that the partnership was going to be beneficial in terms of financial development but it would need a high level of trust and teamwork. The position of the planets indicated that trust would be missing at the beginning and this may result in conflict and competition. Which means that Mark had to be careful not to overlook some issues and make sure that he and his new partner have an open communication.
From the reading which we went over I told Mark that he should go for the partnership but be conscious of his limits and establish some guidelines for the cooperation. This way, he would know the possible problems and be able to avoid or lessen them, which would make the venture more successful and profitable. Mark followed the advice and decided to go ahead with the partnership.
He and his new business partner had a very detailed discussion about the terms of their collaboration and make sure that both parties have a common understanding of what each of them expected from the other. Although there were some problems at the beginning, Mark’s caution and the advice from the horary consultation helped them overcome the obstacles.
It was a few months later when Mark came back to me to thank me for the horary consultation. It was indeed a great partnership not only in terms of financial return but they were also able to handle their issues by relying on trust and communication. Mark was able to develop his business and the partnership was one of the most financially sound relationships he has ever been in.
In retrospect, Mark said that the horary consultation assisted him in looking at the opportunities and the risks of his action. Horary astrology was able to support Mark in selecting between the safe and the risky option, and in the end, it led to the success of the business. It wasn’t as simple as knowing the final outcome – it was about preparing him for everything in between.
