~first~ and ~second~, this combination of cycles is quite compatible and often gives birth to new ideas and plans for the future. It should be a time of enhanced creativity for both of you, delivering opportunities for change and improvement. You, however, could also face a challenging period of powerful emotions that requires a stable environment and support from your partner. Fortunately, ~second~'s cycle is upbeat and optimistic, which can be a much-needed source of comfort for you. 

Because you will experience differences in your approaches and attitudes, it is important to respect each other's needs during this cycle. ~second~ can help by exercising patience if you are not as grounded as usual. You are likely to be experiencing a time of choices and decisions on a deep, even subconscious level, so little may seem clear or simple to you.

~second~, on the other hand, should have an upbeat, happy-go-lucky approach to life during this cycle, and an easier, less emotional time. There will be ups and downs, but their challenge is more about maintaining direction and focus. Although this may not seem like an ideal time to make big changes that could affect your relationship, the process of making plans together could help you feel more secure.

During this period, much will depend on ~second~'s ability to be a source of strength and comfort for you. Your 9 cycle is considered the most challenging, while ~second~'s is usually one of the easiest and most pleasurable. This is a fortunate combination for the relationship where ~second~ can share their upbeat energy with you during your more challenging cycle.
