Okay, so, Saturn in the tenth house this year. Let me tell you, it’s been a journey. I started the year feeling this heavy sense of responsibility, like everything was on my shoulders, especially career-wise.
The Initial Grind
At first, I really struggled. I felt stuck, like I was pushing a boulder uphill. Every project felt ten times harder. I second-guessed myself constantly. My usual enthusiasm? Gone. Replaced by this…dread, almost. I was working longer hours, but seeing fewer results. It was frustrating as hell.
- Started doubting my career path.
- Felt overwhelmed by even small tasks.
- My usual “go-getter” attitude vanished.
Shifting Gears
Then, after a few months of this, I had a bit of a breakdown. I just couldn’t keep going at that pace. I took a few days off, completely disconnected from work, and just…thought. A lot. I realized I was trying to force things, trying to control everything, instead of working with the energy of Saturn. Saturn, I remembered is about structure, discipline, and long-term goals. Not instant gratification.
So, I started making some changes. Small ones at first.
- Re-evaluated my goals: Instead of chasing every shiny opportunity, I focused on what truly mattered for my long-term career vision.
- Created a realistic schedule: No more crazy overtime. I set boundaries and stuck to them.
- Asked for help: This was HUGE. I’m usually so stubborn about doing everything myself. I reached out to mentors and colleagues, and their support was invaluable.
- Celebrate my small wins: This shift in focus created space for postivity.
The Slow Build
It wasn’t a magic fix, of course. It’s been a slow, steady build. But gradually, things started to shift. I felt more grounded. More focused. I started to see the results of my efforts, not in huge leaps, but in solid, sustainable progress. I realized that this Saturn transit isn’t about instant success; it’s about building a strong foundation, brick by brick.
I’m still in the thick of it, but now I’m approaching it with a completely different mindset. It’s still challenging, don’t get me wrong, but I’m learning to work with the energy, not against it. It’s about patience, perseverance, and trusting that the hard work will pay off in the long run.
And that, I feel better than before.
