Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip are married since 1947. Elizabeth met her future husband, Prince Philip of Greece and Denmark, in 1934 and 1937. They are second cousins once removed through King Christian IX of Denmark and third cousins through Queen Victoria. After another meeting at the Royal Naval College in Dartmouth in July 1939, Elizabeth—though only 13 years old—said she fell in love with Philip and they began to exchange letters. Their engagement was officially announced on 9 July 1947.

The engagement was not without controversy: Philip had no financial standing, was foreign-born (though a British subject who had served in the Royal Navy during the Second World War), and had sisters who had married German noblemen with Nazi links. Marion Crawford wrote, "Some of the King's advisors did not think him good enough for her. He was a prince without a home or kingdom. Some of the papers played long and loud tunes on the string of Philip's foreign origin." Elizabeth's mother was reported, in later biographies, to have opposed the union initially, even dubbing Philip "The Hun". In later life, however, she told biographer Tim Heald that Philip was "an English gentleman".

Before the marriage, Philip renounced his Greek and Danish titles, converted from Greek Orthodoxy to Anglicanism, and adopted the style Lieutenant Philip Mountbatten, taking the surname of his mother's British family. Just before the wedding, he was created Duke of Edinburgh and granted the style His Royal Highness.

Elizabeth and Philip were married on 20 November 1947 at Westminster Abbey. They received 2500 wedding gifts from around the world. Because Britain had not yet completely recovered from the devastation of the war, Elizabeth required ration coupons to buy the material for her gown, which was designed by Norman Hartnell. In post-war Britain, it was not acceptable for the Duke of Edinburgh's German relations, including his three surviving sisters, to be invited to the wedding. The Duke of Windsor, formerly King Edward VIII, was not invited.

The higher percentage of Spiritual Connections (connections from a spiritual spread) means that you have share previous life experiences together. When the percentage of your Mundane Connections is significantly higher, you have met someone new. Spiritual connections benefit our inner selves stronger than life connections, and whatever critical and challenging issues they may represent, your experience will be smoother and less traumatic.

You can see from the chart who is more affected by your interaction. The one with a higher percentage of forward connections is investing more energy and thoughts into relationship. If you have a higher percentage of reverse connections, your partner pays more attention to you and you are perceiving his or her feelings and emotions. Mutual connections work in both directions. Having high mutual connection's percentage means you have very strong bond between two of you and are interested in each other in the same degree.
