i am a baby in the astrological realm. i wish to find an astrologer to guide and direct me one day. until then, i learn where i can, and try to follow the information i find. so please be lenient if i sound untutored in said art.

this year i learned that saturn was transitting cancer and that this was a considerable weakness for me, as i have capricorn ascendant. and has held me in a weak position for the last few years.

also that once saturn moved into leo that life would begin looking up for me, and that i would enter a time of well-being and progress. now i know that the rest of my chart affects these things, but for the longest time i simply yearned for mid-july when saturn would enter leo.

now that it has, things really do look more rosy.

is it more the power of suggestion, like a big psychic breath i took on july 16 because it was *the pinnacle date*, or is this effect really this powerful?

i do believe in the truth of astrology, but i'm wondering if i merely psyched myself into something here...
