Astrologer PATRICE KAMINS Introduces INTERVENTIONISTA to Battle Relationship Woes

Former Fashionista turned Astrologer Patrice Kamins introduces pithy online relationship advice column aimed at challenging current relationship dynamics



    /24-7PressRelease/ - NEW YORK, NY, November 29, 2007 - As Interventionista, astrologer Patrice Kamins tells it like it is (or WAS, if you happen to believe in past lives).  This relationship expert found that oftentimes people needed to be shocked into hearing the truth about their romantic connections. 

The Interventionista persona and online website of the same name was born in the late night atmosphere of bars, restaurants and private parties. Inevitably the conversation would turn to a present romance gone astray or a past relationship that wouldn't quite die.  "I'd find myself doing interventions on a regular basis", Patrice explained.

Interventionista is, in her words, the cosmic lovechild of Time Outs' Get Naked column and Go Fug Yourself.  It's an edgy tough love approach (this is not astrology lite) aimed at helping individuals detach from unproductive and disillusioning associations.

She goes on to say that clients usually "know" what's going on and just need someone to give put words to their reality.  "Listen, people don't go to astrologers (or therapists and counselors) when they're happy and their life is running smoothly.  It's when there are challenges and hard decisions to be made."

She points out, "I basically just confirm what you know in your heart to be true."

Despite her tough exterior, however, is a very compassionate soul.  "Listen, I've been there and having your heart broken is an excruciating experience. Sometimes it's necessary though, to propel us to another level in our lives.  The reason I became an astrologer was to understand the purpose behind human suffering and to realize that there is dignity in facing our demons and confronting/accepting our losses.

And in truth, nothing is without it's silver lining.  Patrice goes on to say, "The world tries to separate issues into black and white, right and wrong, when in fact life is usually played out in varying shades of grays.  It depends what label we put on it that defines an experience as good or bad for us.  The point is to learn from our trials and move forward."

In fact, "Duality is exactly the concept that keeps us in human form and to a certain degree, in pain or denial of our shadow.  We all have the propensity for evil, some more than others based on their level of self-constraint.  That's what differentiates so-called normal citizens from sociopaths, some of whom we may unfortunately meet while in the process of dating.  If we don't own our shadow, we will definitely meet him or her in relationship."

To that end, Interventionista has written out her manifesto about relationships.

Some of her diatribes are as follows:
1.  We project our most undesirable and fabulous qualities on to the partner.
2.  Ignorance and emotional immaturity cause pain.  Pick your emotional equal, which has nothing to do with age, btw.  There are still 50-year olds playing in the sandbox.
3.  Own what is yours versus the other person's issues.  We always attract our equal on the continuum.  A victim will always find a victimizer, a masochist a sadist, a giver a taker.  No judgements, but don't always think it's their issue that they always leave... You change your behavior and you will attract a different partner.

"Ultimately, the healthier and more complete we are in ourselves, the more able we are to attract an equal who can balance and support us.  It is worth your while to take care of your issues on your own, otherwise you will be confronting them in the form of an abusive boyfriend, manipulating wife or tyrannical boss."
