~first~ and ~second~, this aspect of your chart requires special attention. When a 2 and 5 are in the same area of this chart, they have the potential to produce a short-lived relationship. The main issue stems from the difficulty you have understanding each other. In some cases, the differences are so extreme couples end up not even liking each other. But the simple fact that you are sustaining a relationship today indicates other numbers are making up for the potential discord that can occur. 

It is important to emphasize that the 2 and 5 are only unharmonious when they are found in the same location of the chart; negative aspects dissipate when the 2 is in one area of the chart and the 5 in another. For example, a 2 Life Path can be quite harmonious with a 5 Heart's Desire. That said, let us concentrate on identifying the core issue and finding ways to deflect it. To do that, let us think of ~second~ (the 2) as water and ~first~ (the 5) as fire. In a controlled environment, they can be used to mutual benefit. But when they occupy the same space, only one will prevail. The lesson here is simple; do not get in each other's way.

Yours can be a strong, lifelong relationship if you accept each other as you are. You will need to willingly accept your differences and understand the need to live somewhat independent lives. Focus on the things you have in common and give each other plenty of room in areas of contention. Do your best to understand your partner, but do not expect to fully grasp their way of thinking. 

Keep in mind that these descriptions relate to this specific aspect of the chart; it is possible you fit well together in other areas. 

~second~ understands and gravitates toward the world of emotions, feelings, and intuition; they are concerned with contentment, happiness, and how one "feels" rather than the accomplishments of a given day. ~first~ is more concerned with dynamic action, impulse, and risky adventure; they thrive on energy, motion, change, and excitement. ~first~ is not likely to slow down just because someone might be uncomfortable with the turmoil they generate.

Remember, this aspect of the chart can be largely offset if you maintain a little separation in your lives and lessen expectations that your partner should enjoy the same things you do. This combination advises you to form a relationship of caring and sharing like that found in a communal setting, rather than one where everything is artificially merged and experienced together.
