Okay, so I’ve been digging into this whole astrology thing, and specifically, what it means to have Saturn in the eleventh house. It’s supposed to be about friendships, groups, and long-term goals. Sounded kinda vague, so I decided to track how it actually played out in my life.
My Saturn Experiment
First, I looked up my birth chart. You know, one of those online calculators. Turns out, yep, Saturn is chilling in my eleventh house. Cool, I guess? Didn’t really feel anything different.
Then I started paying closer attention to my social life. I’m not exactly a social butterfly, more of a… social moth? I tend to stick to a few close friends, and big groups make me want to hide under a table.
- Week 1: I noticed I kept canceling plans. Like, even with my best friend, I’d find some excuse. “Oh, I’m too tired,” or “I have so much laundry.” Lame, I know.
- Week 2: I forced myself to go to a board game night. It was…okay. I mostly just watched other people play, but hey, I was there! Baby steps.
- Week 3: I joined an online forum about, of all things, vintage typewriters. I love those things! It felt surprisingly good to connect with people who shared a weird, niche interest.
- Week 4: My best friend confronted me about being so flaky. Ouch. But she was right. We talked it out, and I realized I was afraid of… I don’t even know… being judged? Being boring?
- Week 5: That typewriter forum? They were planning a real-life meetup! I was terrified, but I RSVP’d “yes.” Then I immediately regretted it.
- Week 6: I almost didn’t go. I spent the whole morning making excuses. But then I remembered this whole Saturn experiment, and how it’s about long-term goals. I want to be more connected, right? So, I went.
And guess what? It was actually… fun! We talked about typewriters, sure, but also about life, and work, and everything. I even made a new friend who lives nearby.
So, what did I learn? Saturn in the eleventh house, for me, isn’t some magical curse. It’s more like… a nudge. A nudge to work on my social anxieties, to put myself out there, and to build genuine connections. It’s still a work in progress, but I’m finally starting to see the point of it all. I’m slowly building something real, one awkward step at a time.
