Marriage is one of the most ancient institutions of the civilized age, nevertheless, building a conjugal relationship is still one of the most difficult and complex tasks of the family cycle, because the couples must now search for and build new ways and manners of conduct it since traditional roles and values have been changed in society. This paper has as an objective to understand from a systemic perspective, considering first-union couples, living in the first part of Family Life-Cycle namely the Acquisition Phase, the family myths transmitted by the family of origin, kept and/or modified or even myths formed by the couple, which permeate the conjugal relationship. In order to complete such task we opted for a case-study oriented qualitative research, through semi-structured interviews and a genogram. The case study couple was in a 10-month marriage when the study was conducted. The analysis was carried out by searching the backbone myths and auxiliary myths present both in the families of origin and in the relationship of the couple studied. The results show the inter-generation transmission of myths and the search of each member of the couple to establish his/hers own family myths shared in the conjugal relationship. This study also shows the need for further research which would come to contribute to the field of couples therapy in it´s comprehension and framing of conjugality, through the point-of-view of family myths because such tools can give us a more wholesome vision of the points of conflict between members of the couple, making intervention an easier task
