Mine was a re-birth I guess. I almost died, I made some major changes in my life, I left the person I had thought I'd be with forever. Then it was like I was being a child while at the same time having a strong awareness of mortality & how time flies.

No worries sub.

Rowan, how long ago and do you feel like youre living your "childhood" over again, like Saturn is somehow making you experience the same cycle of emotions?

Ssupes, were you ok in childhood too? Like ok at school, had friends, ok at home etc?

My point is that If you were antisocial and shy in school at age 6, and then ok at age 7, do you experience social anxiety at age 35 and then youre ok at 36?

If you experience tragedy at age 9, do you feel a sudden depression when you reach 38, when saturn returns to that same degree?

Oh crap. Just checked for my exact natal degree and it's Saturn Sag 4.54.. So I literally just had it exact and then again (because it turned Retro at nearly 5 degrees.) Then I get it again end of summer! Woot!

I totally had a mini emotional crisis end of Feb/early March. Wow.

Any Qs OP? 🙂

FTR I do realize this is supposed to be a major deal.. and a mini emotional crisis only scratches the surface, but like I sad before, Saturn in Libra was the roughest emotional time of my life so I just cant imagine this being worse.. I won't survive if so. So far it's a lot of hard work and career advancement, greater domestic responsibility and I'm really enjoying it all. My approach to friendships is also changing.

2010-2012

Personally I'm not sure if I believe that it's a precise thing, more like most people just go through major changes around a certain age. If I look at the specific dates that important things were supposed to happen during my Saturn return nothing stands out about them. The general predictions for what mine was supposed to be like didn't seem accurate either.

I don't think it's as direct as living out my childhood again, let alone chronologically. But of course I would just be a very young child still at this point if that were the case, since it only started in 2010. It's more like MAJOR changes happened in my life, beginning with almost dying. Issues from childhood have been brought to the surface, I made some MAJOR positive progress in some areas, but have also felt or behaved like a child or teenager in some ways. And it wasn't like all this stuff ended abruptly or was solved as soon as the Saturn return was over. I'm still coping with a lot & trying to grow & figure out how to take care of myself & decide what I want & what it means to be an "adult".

Ok. It sounds like you are re living the emotions of childhood...

For me, i had some great fears in my early childhood, that i remember clearly, and im having great fears now...around the same time saturn-wise...
The reason im asking is because it should cease within 6 months and i should rise socially or professionally, and grow...just kinda scared it wont happen.

Yeah, definitely emotions of childhood.

I thought that the current Saturn return doesn't end until December 2017? Like Saturn is presently in Sagittarius & the dates it's in Sag are Dec 2014 — Jun 2015 & Sept 2015 — Dec 2017. Unless you just mean Saturn is in the same place as it was when these childhood events happened, which leads you to believe that what you're going through will be over when Saturn is in the same place as when they ended in childhood? Which if that's the case, to me is something a bit different from a Saturn return per se.

I have grown amazingly & accomplished amazing things during my Saturn return. Just keep putting in a concerted effort to grow from whatever you're dealing with. I feel like you're going to be ok.

I had my Saturn return 7 years ago. What I'm asking is if you feel like each following year mirrors your experience from birth onwards....like age 3 mirrors age 32...

Oh I see. Well mine was only 5 years ago so I can't really say either which way yet. I don't have any specific childhood events from under age 5 which I can pinpoint as pivotal & check if there has been anything in my life which feels like some kind of re-enactment. There has been a lot of general stuff coming up about my childhood though, feeling interested in looking through photos from when I was a kid, reconnecting with family, etc.

Don't know why my comment got cut off but... This Saturn transit is literally a living nightmare. I'm not going to sugarcoat it, it is so depressing and horrible. At times you're gonna be so sick and tired of constantly feeling horrible, every single day, that you'll just catch yourself "spacing out" and staring into the distance like a living zombie or something. It is really tough. And things you have no dealt with in the past will pop up, and get worst and worst and worst until you deal with them.

And the only reason you even change and accomplish things is because you have NO choice. You either change and work hard and overcome some serious things or you self-destruct. Those are your two options.

If you have a strong Saturn in your chart like I do, it'll be even worst. And there's no escaping with alcohol or drugs during this transit, things just get worst if you try to. You either deal or you break.

it truly sucks, i just had mine in scorpio for the past years and i'm so thankful that it's finally over and there will be light at the end of this damn tunnel cause i'm still terrified. please let it be over lol.
Saturn is a real hard bastard.
