~first~ and ~second~, your cycles carry many similarities and a few differences. This is a time of growth for you ~first~, through networking, work relationships, and consolidating plans. ~second~ will focus on work, (extra effort) and probably a fair amount of frustration. 

The focal point for both of you should be your career, projects, plans, and your future. Your relationship should not pose much of a challenge, although you may experience times when you do not seem to communicate well or share as much time together as usual, even feeling that you are pulling away from each other a bit. Although it is always important to address relationship concerns promptly, during this project-related cycle you may find there is not time to do two things at once. 

However, this is only one side of the coin. Although you may feel somewhat separated during this period, on a more subtle level you have the potential to form a deeper sense of yourselves and your relationship. 

~second~'s 4 inspires the need to find stability and comfort. It is a time to place things where they belong and to establish boundaries. The heart rules you, ~first~, so your emotions are likely to be strongly felt and quickly expressed. These aspects complement each other. While ~second~ works on the practical side of the relationship, you can help move it to a deeper level.
