Dear Rita,
Welcome!
Before I move onto the question of Art vs. Ed I felt there were certain
wider life issues that needed to be addressed.
The first
thing that I was picking up seemed to be the ending of a past relationship
that you still have not quite released. This is probably nothing recent
chronologically... it felt like you had taken some emotional time
out and are now as it were coming back into dating, getting your feet
wet again.
This is
great! There is much to be celebrated indeed. I was feeling a rebirth
of your energy and generally for the summer months ahead you are entering
a period of joy and revival. Enjoy it. :) A lot of good things are
going to be happening around you and not just the revival of your
love life.
Concerning
the past relationship (I am not sure if it was an actual marriage
or just a very strong bond) my feeling is its echoes are still around
you including a great deal of anger/resentment that is stirring just
beneath the surface. (Did the person have clear eyes? I keep seeing
clear blue eyes). This is something that will need to be released
before you can move on and build a firm relationship with anyone else.
Emotionally it is like wanting someone to move into your room and
removing clutter beforehand otherwise there is no space for them.
You have
a great deal of energy, determination and drive and a good way of
using it at the moment is to focus on your career. My feeling is that
at this time you will make the greatest advances there. In your career/work
you can be single minded and simply go forward right now for what
you want, it is an excellent time for getting ahead and finding satisfaction.
This will also be a useful avenue into which to channel a lot of your
anger/excess energy using it as a driving force behind yourself to
put any excess emotional energy into achieving your goals career wise
rather than letting it brew inside you.
Emotionally
you feel like a firecracker (generally feel like men are drawn to
your energy) but there is much more beneath the surface that will
actually be destructive of you and any potential relationship if it
is not released, channeled or harnessed in some way. Think of it as
the difference between a campfire over which you cook and a brushfire
raging out of control.
Along with
anger there is a deal of sorrow still around you and some reluctance
to trust/be vulnerable emotionally beneath the wish to be with someone.
This is all natural, understandable and very valid thinking. Caution
is advisable. And old sorrows will resurface at the beginning of new
relationships. Experiencing any of those feelings is normal and it
is possible to release them.
Ok, romance-wise
my feeling again is that you are coming back into dating after an
absence and that the universal message for me, at the moment, is overwhelmingly
don't make decisions but simply enjoy the process. Explore. Do not
try and second guess where you will end up.... simply follow the road
in front of you and discover where it may lead.
While I
feel that ultimately you will end up committing to someone at the
moment the emphasis is overwhelmingly on exploring, enjoying the ride
and learning from what both men have to teach.
I did not
get clear cut feelings about Ed and Art, it wasn't a case of one is
right for you and one is wrong, no simple answers here (but if there
were you would be aware of them yourself). Both men have something
to offer you, both have (different) qualities that you need, you can
learn from both so there is no need just yet to make a clear cut decision.
While long term was feeling like you would begin a new romantic relationship
for the short term the purpose is in exploring. A lot more will become
clear to you by September I think, but for the next few months explore
your associations with both.
My feeling
is you had stronger feelings for Art, who feels slightly more open
than Ed. Ed, I had a more difficult time getting a tag on, as it felt
like he is more withdrawn and quiet, he holds a part of himself back
and aspects of himself that he is not willing to share with anybody.
I don't think he has told you all of himself but in general his energy
feels more closed than Art's.
While I
believe both men will continue to play slightly different roles in
your emotional life, Art feels slightly stronger, as though the tie
there is something you will explore initially. Ed's significance is
not immediately obvious and feeling more transient now as though he
will only come into play later. I would urge you once again, to continue
to explore your feelings with both of these men and in the end it
will become clear to you which of them (if any) is a better long term
partner.
My feeling
is in the long term you would probably benefit the most from an earthy,
grounded man, someone who can be a grounding influence on your own
energy, and is already quite well established in their own right.
Art - again
feels more open, feels like he is offering you a lot at this time...
so go ahead by all means enjoy. Remember that you do not need to make
lasting decisions just yet... but really, simply go ahead and enjoy,
explore. Things will make themselves clearer to you in due course,
but for now the emphasis is on beginnings and tasting of what is given
without a particular need to settle down.
Thank you

on your journey.
