Okay, so I’ve been feeling this Venus square Saturn transit hard, and I figured I’d just jot down what I’ve been doing to cope. It’s been a bit of a rollercoaster, you know?
First off, I noticed I was feeling super restricted in my relationships. Like, everything felt heavy and serious. No fun, playful vibes at all. It was like walking through mud. So, I started by just acknowledging it. I told myself, “Okay, this is a thing. It’s not forever, but it’s here now.”
Getting My Hands Dirty
- Journaling like crazy: Seriously, I filled pages with just… stuff. Feelings, frustrations, even just random thoughts. It helped to get it out of my head and onto paper.
- Setting boundaries: This was tough, but I realized I needed to say “no” to some things. Like, I canceled a couple of social things I wasn’t really feeling up to. It felt a little guilty at first, but honestly, it was a relief.
- Focusing on self-care: I’m not talking bubble baths and face masks (though those are great!). I mean the real stuff. I made sure I was eating decent food, getting enough sleep, and moving my body. Basic, I know, but it makes a difference. I even did some gardening to feel connected.
- Re-evaluating my finances: Venus rules money, and Saturn is all about restrictions. I took a hard look at my spending and made a budget. It wasn’t fun, but it felt responsible. I cut back on some unnecessary things to make long-term plans.
- Tried to be patient: Oh boy the hard part. Just have to wait and get the work done. I can do that.
The biggest thing I learned through this is that it’s okay to feel down or restricted sometimes. It’s part of the process. I tried not to beat myself up about it and just focused on taking small steps to take care of myself. I think the key is to not resist the energy, but to work with it. It’s like, Saturn is saying, “Okay, let’s get serious about what’s really important.” And Venus is like, “Yeah, but let’s make sure we’re still valuing ourselves and our relationships.”
It’s still a work in progress, obviously. But I’m feeling a little more grounded and a little less overwhelmed. And that’s a win in my book.
