Bristol Palin, the daughter of 2008 Vice Presidential candidate and Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin has had more than her fair share of scrutiny from both the media and the public eye following the announcement that she was going to be having a child out of wedlock.  She became pregnant at the young age of 17 by Levi Johnston, after dating for only a few years.  After the birth of their son Tripp Johnston in December 2008, the couple announced that they were splitting in March of 2009.  Recently, the couple stated that they were engaged for a second time, after spending over a year apart.  Modern Astrology suggests that with a few adjustments on behalf of both parties involved, their relationship could be a successful union.

Bristol, born October 18, 1990, is a Metal Horse born under the Western sign of Libra.  This makes her a fun, outgoing and charismatic individual, who values freedom and independence.  Levi, born May 3, 1990, is a Metal Horse as well, born under the Western sign of Taurus.  He, too, enjoys his freedoms, but ultimately craves a stable home life and eventual security.  Despite these differences, these star-crossed lovers have a lot in common, allowing for a productive union if teamwork can be achieved. 

The Metal Horse is known for his stubbornness, as is the Taurus.  While this reveals much about Levi’s particular temperament, the pairing of Metal Horses in general does not bode well for any relationship, as they both have a strong desire for freedom at any cost and may be unable to maintain lasting partnerships for fear that demands on their time will become too burdening.  The reins of responsibility that come along with a family are often enough to make any Horse turn and run, especially when their decisions are being scrutinized by outsiders. 

The Horse’s desire for independence, along with the Libra’s lust for freedom, may make Bristol too outgoing and social for Levi to be comfortable with.  The Taurus’ inclination toward jealousy and possessiveness could be a major issue for the easier going and more laidback Libra.  Finding the balance between liberty and security will be this couples biggest issue, especially taking into consideration that both have the inconsistent flux of moods brought on by their equine influences. 

While both of these Horses may naturally feel unwilling to offer a change in their actions to suit the others needs, it’s the dynamic flexibility of the Libra and the hopelessly romantic passion of the Taurus that could eventually find this relationship in lasting condition.  Ultimately, they will each need to relinquish some amount of personal freedom if they want to raise Tripp in a two-parent household.
