My son just turned 15 and I am having such a hard time with him lately. Overnight he has become so defiant and awful, I worry that he is depressed also. He is my only child. His dad and I divorced when he was a baby and his dad is not around. He does come to visit a few times a year. Any advice or comments would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

A few things that popped out at me where his sun/saturn conjunction, tMars transiting his natal sun/mars conjunction, and tMoon transiting over his Jupiter...Give me some time and I'll look at it later I have 3 essays to write right now....and I shouldn't even be on here.

Don't forget that he's 15 and at that age they go a bit nuts. I know I did. I wouldn't bet on you being his best friend for a while...I can try to see what's bugging him but I don't know how much help I'll actually be. For now just let him know you are there for him if he needs help or even just someone to talk to. That alone makes a big difference.

He feels the power to break away from all the arbitrary conventions he's resented you raising him with. Give him space and respect him, and don't don't don't don't smother him. Try to accept him not having any obligation to be part of your family. He may not want to be your friend because the society he is comfortable part of would alienate him if he was, but regardless, if you denote any obligation for him to do anything which he doesn't agree with, he will not respect you, because he feels he has an alternative now, with the other society. So you'll have to accept him choosing them.

What CA said is pretty right on...

As far as astrology he's got pluto transiting his fourth house so he's going to be changing his views on family life. He will transform in the home and on his ideas and wants for the home. I think once Pluto moves past Jupiter it will mostly be over.

His self-identity has also taken a hit with saturn transiting his first house. Once saturn is in his second that will ease up a bit.

My advice is, be there for him. Don't pressure him into anything or be forceful. This will lead to resentment on his part and could delay his learning process. It will make him push you away more. Let him figure out his own way while you help guide him (not dictate!) on his path.
