Many friends have asked me a question: “If a destined partner is someone suitable for marriage, does that necessarily mean they are my ideal type?”
Today, I’ll answer this question for everyone: “A destined partner is defined as someone suitable for marriage, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they are your ideal type.”
The reason is: Your subjective ideal type can change with age. You might have many relationships based on your ideal type throughout your life, but marriage is likely only once. The destined partner refers to the marriage partner who is suitable for you.

Everyone’s timing for marriage differs. Some people’s astrological charts lean toward early marriage, and if the timing of meeting their destined partner aligns closely with their marriage luck, then the type of destined partner will likely match their current preferences and choices. However, some people’s astrological charts lean toward late marriage, and if the timing of meeting their destined partner is far removed from their marriage luck, it’s possible that their current choices may differ from the ones they’ll make when they’re truly ready to marry.
For example, when Xiaomei looked at her destined partner at the age of 26, her marriage luck was at 27, so the type of her destined partner was more likely to align with her current romantic choices. On the other hand, when Xiaochen looked at her destined partner at 23, but her marriage luck was at 32, the person she would marry at 32 was highly unlikely to be the type she would have liked at 23. As Xiaochen grew older, gradually approaching her 30s, she would come to understand why she chose that person—all of which is perfectly normal.
No matter how old you are when you look into your destined partner, the inferred destined partner is always the one your subconscious would most likely choose, based on the structure of your birth chart.
This is because the destined partner report is deduced based on your first house (your personality determines the type of person you would choose), seventh house (the house of marriage, where the quality of your marriage is reflected), the planets in the seventh house and their aspects—including the dignity or debilitation of those planets and their angular relationships (your expectations in love and the choices you might make in relationships are reflected here), the condition of Venus (your preferred love style is reflected here), and the condition of the Moon (your approach to intimacy and family dynamics is reflected here).
Additionally, the height and age of the destined partner need to be analyzed in conjunction with the ruler of your seventh house. If the ruler of your seventh house is the Sun or Mars, the person will generally appear tall and robust in stature. If the ruler is Saturn, the person will tend to be thinner and more gaunt, and likely older (this determination also depends on which planets aspect the ruler of the seventh house—whether they are dignified or debilitated—which can indicate further variations in height, build, or age difference. One cannot rely solely on a single planet; many other factors must also be considered).
Therefore, a prediction in a true love report is not about fabricating a story out of thin air, but rather a genuine and logical conclusion derived from analyzing your birth chart. It examines your definitions of “liking” and “marriage” in various aspects, equivalent to observing another version of yourself reflected in a mirror.
When you encounter yourself, how could you not be attracted, and how could it not be a perfect match? While personal preferences and aesthetics may be influenced by environment and time, no matter how they change, the core self remains unaltered. What we like is always a projection of our inner selves.
Thus, your true love may not necessarily align with your current ideal type, but they are the person naturally suited for marriage under your given conditions.
