Alright folks, let’s dive into something I’ve been tinkering with lately: Saturn in the 12th house. Now, I’m no astrologer, just a regular person who likes to explore these things through practical application and observation.
It all started a few months back. I got really curious about the 12th house – the house of hidden things, secrets, the subconscious, all that juicy stuff. Then I remembered, “Hey, Saturn is hanging out there in my chart!” So, naturally, I went down the rabbit hole.
First thing I did was just research, read a bunch of articles, watched some videos. Honestly, a lot of it was kinda vague and scary – isolation, suffering, karmic debt. I was like, “Whoa, hold on a minute. Is this my future or something?”
But I didn’t want to just take it at face value. I wanted to see how it was playing out in my life. So, I started journaling. Every day, I’d write down what I was feeling, what my thoughts were, any recurring patterns that came up.
It was slow going at first. Nothing seemed particularly 12th house-y. But then, I started noticing some themes. I realized I had this real tendency to withdraw when things got tough. Like, if I was feeling overwhelmed or stressed, my go-to move was to just shut down, isolate myself, and disappear into my own little world.
I also noticed that I had a lot of hidden anxieties and fears. Things I didn’t really want to admit to myself, let alone anyone else. Fear of failure, fear of judgment, the whole shebang. And these fears were really holding me back from going after what I wanted.
So, what did I do about it? Well, that’s where the Saturn part comes in. Saturn’s all about discipline, structure, facing your fears. So, I figured I needed to get serious about addressing these issues.
I started small. I made a commitment to myself to connect with at least one person every day, even if it was just a quick phone call or a text message. I also started practicing mindfulness, trying to be more present in the moment and less caught up in my anxieties.
And you know what? It actually started to work! Slowly but surely, I began to feel less isolated and more connected. I also started to realize that my fears weren’t as big and scary as I thought they were. Once I started facing them, they started to lose their power.
- Journaling regularly
- Practicing mindfulness
- Connecting with others
- Setting small, achievable goals
Now, I’m not saying I’ve completely conquered my Saturn in the 12th house challenges. It’s still a work in progress. But I’ve learned that it’s not about being perfect or avoiding pain. It’s about being willing to face your fears, embrace your vulnerability, and keep moving forward, one step at a time.
The biggest takeaway? Don’t let fear dictate your actions. Use the energy in your chart to work FOR you, not against you.
