Okay, so today I decided to dive into this whole “heartbreak transits astrology” thing. I’ve been feeling a bit…off lately, and a friend suggested I look into what the stars were doing when I went through my last major breakup. Sounds a little woo-woo, maybe, but I figured, why not?
Getting Started
First, I pulled up my birth chart. I already had it saved from some other time I was curious about astrology, but if you don’t have yours, there are tons of free sites where you can generate it. You just need your birth date, time, and location.
Then I googled “heartbreak transits astrology” along with “breakup” “love astrology”, just trying to get a sense of what planets and aspects I should even be looking for. I found a few articles and forum posts that mentioned things like:
- Saturn transits (restrictions, limitations, endings)
- Venus transits (love, relationships, values)
- Mars transits (conflict, separation, action)
- Chiron transits (wounding, healing)
- Transits to the 7th house (partnerships, marriage)
- Transits to the 5th house (romance, dating)
Digging In Deep
I opened up a transit chart calculator on another website. I entered the date of my breakup – or, well, the approximate date, since it was kind of a messy, drawn-out affair. Then I started looking for those key planets.
It was…interesting. I saw that Saturn was making a hard aspect (I think it was a square?) to my natal Venus around that time. A lot of the articles I read described that as a classic “breakup” transit. Some of the descriptions I found talked about feeling unloved, re-evaluating relationships, and experiencing endings. It felt pretty spot-on, to be honest.
Making Some Sense
I also noticed that transiting Mars was opposing my natal Moon. This, according to my quick research, can indicate emotional turmoil, arguments, and a need to break free. Yep, that sounds about right too.
Honestly, I spent a good couple of hours just clicking around, reading interpretations, and comparing the transits to what I was actually feeling and experiencing at the time. It wasn’t like a sudden “aha!” moment, but it did give me a different perspective. I was able to rethink.
My Thoughts
It helped me see the breakup not just as a personal failure, but maybe as part of a larger cycle, or a learning experience that was “meant” to happen. I’m not sure if I totally buy into all of it, but it was definitely a thought-provoking exercise.
I realized that I need to understand it at a deeper level.
I might keep exploring this, maybe look into some other transits that were happening around that time. It’s kind of like detective work, piecing together the astrological clues.
