In relationships, every person plays certain roles, consciously or unconsciously. These scenarios are shaped by personal beliefs, life experiences, and karmic tasks. The Matrix of Destiny helps reveal the role we most often take on in love and understand how it affects our relationships.
Why is this important? When we become aware of our role, we can change destructive scenarios, create a harmonious union, and avoid repeating negative experiences.
Main relationship scenarios
- The Rescuer
Always strives to help their partner, even at their own expense.
Often chooses a partner who needs "fixing."
May suffer from emotional burnout. - The Victim
Feels helpless, in need of protection.
Prone to relationships where the partner takes the lead. May provoke the rescuer into helping but does not seek change. - The Persecutor
Controls, criticizes, demands.
May suppress the partner, believing they are right.
Draws the partner into the victim scenario. - Parent-Child
One partner takes on the role of a caring "parent," the other—an infantile "child."
Often manifests in control, mentoring, or financial dependence. - Two Adults
Mature partners who respect each other's boundaries and personal space. Based on equality, mutual growth, and awareness. - The Teacher
Provides the partner with important life lessons. May be demanding, expecting growth from the partner. Sometimes the relationship turns into lessons, after which the partners part ways. - The Mirror
The partner reflects your inner fears, traumas, or shadow aspects. The relationship serves to bring awareness and transformation of internal processes. - The Comrade
Partners unite for a common goal, supporting each other. The union is based on mutual aid and a shared mission.
