Okay, so the other day I was looking at my astrology chart, you know, just casually browsing, and I saw this aspect: Sun square Saturn. I’d heard about it before, and it’s not exactly known for being a walk in the park. It often carries themes like limitations, responsibilities, and maybe feeling a bit restricted.
So, I got curious. How was this playing out in my own life? I decided to really pay attention to it for a week, kind of like a mini-experiment.
Tracking My Week
First thing I did was grab my journal. Every day, I made a point of writing down a few things:
- My Energy Levels: Was I feeling upbeat and motivated, or more sluggish and weighed down?
- Major Events: Anything significant happen, good or bad? Did I have to deal with any unexpected hurdles?
- My Reactions: How did I respond to what was going on? Did I get frustrated easily, or was I able to take things in stride?
The first couple of days, honestly, I didn’t notice much. I mean, life was just…life. Work was busy, I had some errands to run, the usual stuff. I almost started to think, “Maybe this whole Sun square Saturn thing is overblown.”
But then, Wednesday hit.
I woke up feeling blah. Just totally unmotivated. I had a to-do list a mile long, and the thought of tackling even one thing felt exhausting. Then, I got an email from my boss asking for some revisions on a project I thought I’d finished. Ugh. It felt like a setback, like I was being held back from moving forward.
That’s when it clicked. This felt like Saturn! That feeling of being weighed down, of having extra responsibilities piled on. I almost gave in to the urge to just crawl back into bed and hide.
Instead, I did my best to work on my attitude, I did my best to change my mood that day.
And surprisingly, it worked, and I was able to complete a lot of work.
The rest of the week had its ups and downs, but that Wednesday experience really stuck with me. It showed me how this aspect, Sun square Saturn, can manifest in subtle ways, even when you’re not expecting it.
By the end of the week, I felt like I had a better understanding of this transit. It’s not about being doomed to a life of hardship, it’s about understanding how that pressure is expressed and responding to it. It’s about pushing forward.
