On a scale of 1-6....how would you rate your views on marriage? 1 being highly conventional...6 being very unconventional. Do you fit the stereotypical grounded, disciplined, conventional Earth sign?

1. The male assumes total responsibility for the financial income, and the fixtures and handy-work around the house. He protects his wife and his family. The female assumes all the domestic roles in the household, cooking, cleaning, laundry, sewing, ensuring all the bills are paid on time, helping the children with their homework. Both spouses have traditional objectives in raising their children, not spoiling the children, raising their children to understand the importance of hard work, a good education, integrity, responsibility, structure, spiritual values, respect, and obedience.

2. The male assumes responsibility for 75% of the financial income, and 100% of the fixtures and handy-work around the house. He protects his wife and family. The female assumes 25% of the financial income (works part time)and assumes all the domestic roles in the household, cooking, cleaning, laundry, sewing, ensuring all the bills are paid on time, helping the children with their homework. Both spouses have traditional objectives in raising their children to understand the importance of hard work, a good education, integrity, responsibility, structure, spiritual values, respect, and obedience.

3. The male assumes responsibility for 50% of the financial income, and 100% of the fixtures and handy-work around the house. He protects his wife and family. The female assumes 50% of the financial and assumes all the domestic roles in the household, cooking, cleaning, laundry, sewing, ensuring all the bills are paid on time, helping the children with their homework. Both spouses have traditional objectives in raising their children to understand the importance of hard work, a good education, integrity, responsibility, structure, spiritual values, respect, and obedience.

Both spouses have unorthodox objectives in raising their children. No rules. No punishment. No structure. Total autonomy. Children should be children. Make their own mistakes. Find their own path.

6. No pre-defined expectations. Creating their own happy endings. It really doesn't matter.

This sentence sums it up for me as far as this subject goes. 😛


The chart as a whole definitely plays the main role. My character would just stomp all over pre-detirmined rules & standards, even though I'm an earth Sun/Venus (both in the Aqua house). I don't even have to go out of my way to explain that to anyone, people sense the "effortlessly unconventional" in me right off the bat. They don't question it. Sun trine Uranus. Point being, Sun sign alone really means nothing in the grand scheme of things.

1. - 5. is fine
I don't really care too much about income or how it divided, just need him to makes enough to at least modestly support himself and his children, anything extra is bonus. If it comes down to me pulling us up into a fancier tax bracket, I'm cool with that.

1. & 5.
That kid rearing shit on 5 is a NO! " No rules. No punishment. No structure." NO! They shall be taught well, but also given room to speak for themselves and question respectfully so they can understand why, in an obedient manner.

4. All the handy work, domestic shit gets lumped into a 50/50 pot how ever it works itself out. I can and will fix some shit as long as I don't have to use any big heavy power tools that can cut off my fingers.

1.
I handle the bills, or at the very least eyeball them bitches at the end of every month, can't risk my financial security, on a "shit babe I forgot."

Idk I have pretty traditional values when it comes to marriage and family, but these options don't really speak to anything I put a lot of value on when it comes to marriage and family.
