TOTAL-LOVE-BONDING Finding & Trusting pairing Polarity
"SEXUAL ASTROLOGY'
MS rev of book by Marlene Rathgeb, Avon, ë93

This unique book outlines the elements of gender love styles beyond astro stereotypes, in solunar astrology terms more clearly than any sex-partner book ever. Iíve been learning & using the GEM= gender element-matching our Sun & Moon syns for relationships for 10 years. GEM reveals learning how our energies fit & balance or push or fight together, also with the current syns of sun & moon in transit influencing us constantly.
Sexual Astrology reveals the astro elements code of Romance & relations, but not intimate touching of total love bonding together in family & nature! The opposite Gender elements are: Masculine = Air & Fire, & Feminine = Water & Earth, applied to our sun & moon give basic dynamics of loving relationship potentials, why & how we feel, act & connect together. The Sun is masculine doing conscious, & Moon is Feminine emotions/ subconscious feeling it all.
The extreme, trouble & strange comes in masculine women & feminine men, who reverse the natural polarities growing closer & intimate or different & separate. Marlene asserts ìastro signs are sex-symbols of love-stylesî that guide human relationships. Her analysis omits parenting & sibling relations in family. But we can apply the solunar dynamics to family relationships, healing & growing creative genius, instincts & psychic talents, knowing Sun & Moon syns of anyone.
Sexual Astrology presents Gender elements of sun & moon in simple combinations for men & women, meeting each other. Both have tin syns from birth that combine with whoever we meet. Our Sun/birth & moon syn are either: air, fire, water or earth syn.
There's 4 basic gender potentials of matching:
Masculine Sun & moon Feminine Sun & Moon
Masculine Sun & feminine moon
Feminine Sun & Masculine moon

These combine into 16 element potentials of:
Air = O Fire = ^ Water = ~ Earth = +
All masculine elements - extrovert
Air O sun & moon Fire ^ sun & moon
Air O sun & fire ^ moon Fire ^ sun & O moon
= - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - =
All feminine elements - introvert
Earth + sun & moon Water ~ sun & moon
Earth + sun & water ~ moon
Water ~ sun & + moon
= - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = -
GEM = Gender Element Mixes of:
Masculine sun & feminine moon
Fire ^ sun & earth + moon
Fire & water ~ moon
Air O sun & earth+ moon
Air sun & water~ moon
Feminine Sun & masculine Moon
Earth sun & fire moon

Water sun & fire moon
Water sun & air moon
Marlene explains applies Carl Jungs architype psychology to her ësexual astrologyí- masculine: Air is thinking; Fire is intuitive; Feminine: Earth is sensing & water is feeling. I agree, except the fire element is more dynamic, exciting, spontaneous, playful, wild, energetic, brilliant & brave than intuitive, unless its grounded with feminine elements.
She also explains gender spectrum with ëAndrogynousí balance & extremes of elements at work in our sun & moon birth syns. Extremes are Masculine fire & feminine water. The androgynous balanced elements are feminine earth & Masculine air. For example: to me Libra is most feminine air O syn & Capricorn earth is the masculine earth + syn. Scorpio is most masculine water ~ syn & Leo is most feminine fire ^ syn from the 3K charts - readings Iíve done, since 1990.
Marlene explains the 64 possible relationships of gender element combinations between masculine & feminine sun & moon syns. She describes the personal & business influences & examples of many dead famous & popular people with solunar combos to show how the elements work/express together.
