No matter what was conjuncting what, if I see an A-Hole, I'll call it.

Saturn squaring my Sun is fun fun fun.. actually, work is quite busy and demanding, and my boss has repeatedly, this week, relied on me, and bestowed pride happy praise on me.... and several projects are a hairsbreadth away from seeing fruition... But then again, Transitting Sun is conjunct natal Saturn.. so I guess it balances.

i didn't see any of your relationship stuff last week, but i can certainly relate. perhaps its that "heartbreak transit"?

children and marriages are so challenging. i know my relationship would be different if my hubby and i got to spend more time together~ just us. but when we are alone on a weekend trip, we miss our daughter and want her there with us. it's no win at times isn't it?

Oh tell me about it girl, it totally changes the relationship doesnt it having the little one?

I too struggle with not having enough time with my man - I darent think how it used to be with us - we were so "together"..........well now........just to say it changes.........

Love to all

Will I make a new one or will people be happy to use this?

I don't mind using this thread, Sue...I shall have been married 7 years, in September of this year. Ugh, all those jokes abt. "7 Year Itch" - true though, in my case. Perhaps there is something in the Saturn Seven Cycle after all.

What I've realised is that marriage bores me, no matter how I have tried to approach it, in the end it just seems to boil down to "responsibility" and "duty". I always used to say I was never going to get married, but then I found someone who I thought was right for me. But - uh, shared financial resources, in-laws, families, pressures to have children, petty arguments about little things, housework, being stuck in a rut, things being the same from one day to the next - it's just not me. I prefer to be able to come and go as I please, and not have every decision turned into a major compromise. I want to be able to eat what I want, wear what I want, read the books I like, visit the places I want to visit, make the career decisions I want to make, without provoking a running commentary!!

I shall be divorcing my husband soon, and I also don't speak to my own parents. Maybe on the surface this might seem as if there was something wrong with me...but I would challenge ANYONE to put up with them. I personally can't cope with family dynamics, this being around people that don't really want you around, but who try to guilt you into feeling some "responsibility" twards them - and in the future I aim to do everything possible to avoid family-related situations per se.

I was thinking last night, if I chose to, I could sit around and dwell on everything and let the pain eat me up. But gradually (and particularly since I have distanced myself from my parents, and emotionally detached myself somewhat from Mr. Aqua) I have been able to put myself in a place where I don't feel pain, it's weird, I feel almost anaesthetized.

Does this make sense? Sorry, I am going on here...

Pixie...I too am feeling a similar thing. A kind of gear change.

Yes the Saturn seven year cicle is partly involved, but Uranus is the main player when one refers to the seven year itch. Saturn may steadily incline you to set the scene but it is Uranus who suddenly blasts in and releases the energy.

Uranus = sudden disruptions, unexpected or out of the blue situations

Is your partner aware of your feelings? is this amutual thing or is it just something within you?

I think deep down Mr. Aqua is aware of my feelings...but when I suggested splitting up to him in a roundabout way, he wasn't moved AT ALL. He was more bothered about financial implications.

Weird.

Although I think we both realize our relationship has gone just about as far as it can.

It's odd. When Uranus was in Capricorn, I attracted Earth sign men. When it moved to Aquarius, I married Mr. Aqua. Now it's in Pisces...I, ahem, feel myself drawn to Water sign men...

Spookily - I'm a Piscean!!!!!!

ha ha haa and single ha ha ha

I'm sure you know all about Aqua types. They can be very detached from the emotional side of things when it comes to relationships. It's the friend and intelectual side of things they crave more.

Yeah, I've been swimming around a bit so haven't popped my head out of the water lately, but back now

no wonder being a Gem i always run from marriage and kids. its not about responsibility or duty its the change in ur life that u didnt want or u didnt bring it comes by itself, and i dont want to be in a rut, i dont want to not be able to think about playing the field and being with other men, i want to be able to wink back at the guy who winks at me at the grocery store, and never say no to anyone who asks me on a date. and finding love without following rules or having to fulfill duties, and even maybe finding loyalty amidst that? oh i love the single life, off i am for ice cream

Love
SG

even the entire farce of a paper marriage was hell. ugh. men want to possess you, they take u for granted, find you boring, dont want to woo you, become slobs, and get so *predictable* in the physical aspect of the relationship. sighs.

know what you mean about the traffic but had some fantastic walks around the western side of the island, love your prehistoric dolmens, and the inner parts of the island are also beautiful. I'm the kind that likes to stay away from the very obviously "touristy" spots.

Lucky you, being able to nip off to France *just like that*!

Yeah we have some good places. I'm just working on the histories of Jersey's harbours and ports, for the new Jersey Harbour web-site. It's fascinating stuff, all the castles and fortifications etc...

I work for the Harbour Authorities by the way - which goes without saying really, being a double Piscean and all

If you ever visit again, you'll have to let us know.

But having child(ren) has opened my heart in a way never possible. When I gave birth to my daughter it literally opened up my heart chakra. So much baggage was lifted and worked through leading up to her birth and after. I suppose becuase when we become parents we want to be better people..I know I did/and still do.
