Jeff Prince, an astrologer and member of the Astrological Association of Great Britain believes that Meghan Markle, 35 and from LA, will not embark on an engagement with Prince Harry, 32, this year.
Speaking to Express.co.uk he said: “I believe an engagement in 2017 is unlikely.”
Jeff claims Meghan will not become engaged to the Prince “until she feels more confident within herself regarding social expectations, protocols and her ability to strike a balance between what she is told she must do and exercising her freedom to pursue what feels right.”
However, Meghan will be moving in a positive direction in terms of her relationship with the royal if the stars are right.
“Meghan’s seventh house – the sector in her chart that rules commitment and lifetime love – is Capricorn,” Jeff explains.
“Its ruling planet, Saturn, commenced backward motion on 6 April 2017 and won’t go direct until 26 August 2017. Therefore, the period between April and August will be one of behind-the-scenes contemplation and preparation where relationship commitments are concerned.”
This, according to Jeff, means there is something for Meghan to learn during that time when it comes to her relationship.
However, there are sure signs her ties with the royal family will become tighter and that he will feel more scrutiny.
“Saturn returns to Capricorn on 19 December 2017 and Meghan’s relationship duties and responsibilities will become stricter from then until 2020,” Jeff said.
“It is clear from Meghan’s chart that she is becoming aware of an increase in social responsibilities and how strictly she’s being monitored to satisfy others’ expectations of her.
“In particular, the period between August and November indicates genuine keenness to ensure she’s seen in a particularly positive light but Meghan is adjusting to a very new – and steep – learning curve where her relationship with Harry is concerned.”
However, it does appear that the romance between Harry and Meghan could be written in the stars.
“Meghan was born on 4 August 1981 with the Sun in Leo and the Moon, Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto in Libra,” Jeff explained.
