I had my chart done several years ago but I'm still trying to understand and deconstruct and then bring everything back together.
I don't have a powerful story, but I can share that from approximately 29 to 31 years old I was experiencing a lot of financial challenges, I was self employed but then I couldn't work anymore. had no income. lived alone. was fearful about how I was going to make it. A lot of fear and struggling
I mean it was one thing after another. I'm strong and I think I can take a punch, but I felt that I was really being beat up on. Nothing I felt was going my way.
There were times I felt something else was at work, but I was in turmoil and just wanted everything to stop being hard. Anyhow, I ended up have a consultation with an reiki master/astrologer. What did I find out from her? That I was going through what is known as 'Saturn Returns'.
Of course I'm finding this out almost at the end of the cycle. I think two years had gone by. Saturn returns lasts approx 2 1/2 years.
I did feel a sense of relief that I was at the tail end of this. Finding this out also let me know that hey, it's not me and I'm not crazy. that was a bit of a relief. I still had struggling and pain, but knowing that I was coming to the end and telling myself that I just had to hang on helped me cope better. It was a cosmic rite of passage. whew? I'm glad I made it. LOL!!!
Anyhow, that's my story. I'm an Aquarius with a Scorp rising.

That was an excellent story. As I was reading your story, I was thinking "Saturn" Then finally, you mentioned "Saturn Return"
Saturn restricts, depresses, punishes and also Rewards, only if you been doing right of course. Doing right means learning from your past mistakes. Saturn is the planet of history, which is symbolic to the past. Saturn is also the Father, while the Moon is considered to be the Mother. Saturn is a srict disciplinarian and he returns to check up on us from where he was, when we were first born, that is referred to as a "Saturn Return." After we are born, Saturn moves on to prepare our upcoming houses for us. That way when we get to those houses, we will have all that we need because Saturn has made sure of that. However, If we don't do right by what Saturn has given us, and has taught us, he will punish us, and take back, strip us, so that we can start all over again. Had you known about Satrun before it returned back to it's natal position in your natal chart, you could have prepared yourself ahead of time. After transiting Saturn leaves from the natal position of your chart, you want to start watching how Saturn is going to be in the upcoming house, of your chart. Would you like to revisit your natal chart? I am curious to know the natal position of your Saturn.

My natal position of Saturn is the first house...Yikes. The first house represents self. In many ways, I am very fearful of a lot of things because Saturn is a planet that does not sugar coat anything, it gives everything to you real. Saturn is nto really a dreamy planet or a sweet and nice planet but it has many positive qualities that you will only learn once Saturn has stripped you and left you bare and vulnerable. I can't wait to hear back from you.
