~first~ and ~second~, your cycles are as opposite as they can be, yet they are not incompatible. In a relationship, their influences usually complement and balance each other.

~first~, you are in a dynamic cycle of change and highly charged, restless energy. Your attention will be focused on work, projects, travel or other outside interests. ~second~'s cycle is one of stability and responsibility, which should make their approach focused and practical. While you are looking for opportunity and adventure, ~second~ will be centered on home and family - the people and things that mean the most to them. 

If you can recognize the differing aspects of your cycles and support each other's independent paths, this can be a rewarding period for your individual pursuits as well as your relationship. You can inspire a little excitement and ~second~ can bring needed stability. However, there is also the potential for discord, blame, or anger. During this cycle, more than almost any other time, it is important that you do not try to influence each other too much. "Live and let" live should be the slogan for this period. 

You have probably already recognized that you always experience very different cycles, some more compatible than others. This is an important aspect of your relationship, and not limited to this particular cycle. To maintain a successful partnership, you will both need to accept the fact that you will be influenced by very different energies for most of your lives. It wouldn't hurt to make "live and let live" a family slogan.

Although your cycles place you at opposite ends of the spectrum, you complement each other nicely, with each of you providing aspects that work well together. Chances are you make a great team when you put your minds to it, especially when it comes to presenting a united front to the outside world.
