Just like Ami Anne said, we are all one family here and I feel so welcome and comfortable.@Starcrossedleo It's true, I feel like I really am ALWAYS depressed. I have to force myself out of fits of depression. The entire time that Saturn has been transiting Libra, my relationship has been a living hell. But we're determined to make it, even with all the stress we're going through. Can you explain what a yod is please? I'm learning astrology, but I'm really learning as I go along. I admit I don't know everything and am not afraid to ask.  @Ami Anne I came across the Pluto in Scorpio in the 12th house aspect in my chart and it sounds deadly...horrible really. Amazingly enough, I find myself anxious, but that's that aries in jupiter transit still wearing me down.
A yod is a rare astrological aspect involving any celestial body of astrological importance. In astrology a yod is said to form whenever one planet forms quincunxes (150° aspects) to another two planets that are separated by only a sextile (60° aspect). If each point of the yod were traced across an astrological chart it would appear as a "Y" shape on any axis. The two planets in sextile are in a complementary relationship while the quincuxed planet is completely incompatible with the sextile planets, sharing neither gender, element, or mode (though the ruler of the planet and house should be also considered). This aspect activates either a powerful conduit of energy, or a deeply-felt block, in the direction of the quincuxed planet. Also the midpoint of your sextile planets will be a sensitive pt because it is opposite the quincunxed planet (Pluto) IP: Logged |

Here's how your Saturn transits opposite your personal planets might make you feelTr Sat opp Sun This can be a period of great frustration and a possible restructuring of your status quo or laying new foundations in your life. You may be introspective. it is a time of hard work and great responsibility. TR Sat opp Venus Relationships are challenged resulting in a positive restructuring of the relationship or separation to work things out or an end to relationship. Tr Sat opp Mercury Depression; a time of serious responsibilty I am going through Saturn transiting Mars and Moon and it is tough but knowing that you are going through these transits somehow makes it feel a little more manageable like there is relief in sight.

Ami Anne I remembered reading it in one oft books but can't locate. I only remember it because my ex is easily depressed and he has that aspect. I haven't seen it described that way in any other description though . Maybe it's the conflict between head and heart that causes it also it causes one to be intellectual and many highly intellectual people suffer from depression IP: Logged |

Hello everyone! Sorry it has taken so long for me to answer. I simply haven't stopped moving around until now. Busy busy busy. Thanks for all of the great information. Gonna try to break it down section by section so that I can respond to everything.@Sassaqua Everything that you said about the planets square saturn is right. I didn't notice it before, but saturn is a DRAG! I have horrible self esteem sometimes and socially, I am terrible. And funny enough, I strive to be a social person because I really do want to be. But it tends to backfire one me. Which brings me to the Saturn square Neptune aspect. Once I do make friends, all kinds of darkness comes of it. So I am easily deceived, especially since I try to give people the benefit of the doubt. As for being directionless, that's the story of my life. I'm 22 and have been putting off college because I have no specific career I want to pursue. ------------------ ELLYGIRL7 IP: Logged |

@Ami Anne Thanks for being so patient and bumping up this thread so I could catch up to it. If I have a secret life, it's even a secret to me LoL The material world is pretty hard on me. I live extremely below the poverty level and have a hard time budgeting out how $750 a month is supposed to support a family of $, but I manage ok. I definitely go without life's luxuries. Fun, romance, creativity, and my children are very important (5th house) to me, but they are all missing from my life. I'm not sure I am what one would call charming. Not sure how pluto effects me, but my relationships are very important. I guess if pluto effects this, then its why I find myself struggling to balance my private self and my social life. The joy in my life would be my committed relationship, but I find myself at a loss for how to connect to my spouse. ------------------ ELLYGIRL7 IP: Logged |

@Starcrossedleo I understand what you mean in defining the Yod. How soon does this ugly saturn transit system end? This is the most miserable I have ever been! Depression on top of depression and all I want to do is hide in the bed. Venus conj Mercury is a struggle between head and heart and its constant. Maybe that's why depression takes over so easily.------------------ ELLYGIRL7 IP: Logged |

Elly girl You'll be done with the effect of saturn transits by December 2011. Saturn will oppose your Mercury in November and then you'll be out of orb of this transit by December.
This transit has been particularly hard on your chart as it squared your natal planets in capricorn. Uranus (5 cap) then your natal Neptune at 12 cap and now your natal saturn at 13 cap. It will oppose your venus in septmber and then your merc in november but then you will be home free from these saturn transits until 2018. The saturn squrae neptune you are experiencing right now will cause you to want to isolate (which you described) Saturn sq saturn will test certain sapects of your life particulary those which began to be important about 7 years ago. You are doing a lot of soul seraching and are questioning the long term trends in your life. Hang in there. We all experience these transits -we just have different patterns in our charts.

I can propbably relate a lot to what you've been going through. I have a pluto aspect in 12 house and heavy cap placements. Of course those squares in your chart probably make it even harder.My IC is also two degrees conj yours. I was talking to an astrologer just yesterday, and shevseemed very concerned I have transit neptune conjunct my IC which means you have this too, and probably have a harder time because it just past your north node. This transit can make your home life a bit unbearable, you might not feel at home in your home right now, or may have been or been going through a phase where your goals and life direction seem cloudy or unattainable. At least its temperary.  P.s I looked at your and your partners natal chart. I jotted down some aspects but didn't have time to finish and do a full anaylsis. From what I could tell thus far it seems you probably new each other in a past life. Maybe through work or met each other through work in this lifetime? Marriage is ultimately your decision, but as far as I can tell in your chart it seems like it would only benefit you, if that's what you do decide. I also share some of the same synastry aspects as you so that makes me hopeful, thanks  IP: Logged |

eyes_like_pisces Thanks so much for answering! I know that something I don't understand is going on in my chart. It may very well be the Neptune/IC transit. I lost my home, and everything in it and am still homeless, which (if the NN is involved) is nothing less than an act of destiny. How did this transit treat you? Were there commonalities?As for my relationship with fiancé, the way we met is even fate. We met on myspace and were from two sides of the same tracks. By all right, there was nothing that we had in common except an attraction out of nowhere. I thought we had been together in a past life and now we share one in which I must have owed him some serious Karma, because as bad as things have become, I cannot bring myself to leave his side. We didn't meet through work and don't even have the same careers, but our greatest work seems to be our children. I have told this man that I wasn't ready for 6 years and am still lost. I know the 10th house placement would denote work, but it also seems to mean "Dad" and "Powerful Spouse" even. Both my father and fiancé are Virgos. IP: Logged |

Oh crazy! We have the same birthday and I've been feeling the same way for a month now (really a lot longer than a month, but it has been surfacing more lately). I'm interested to read the posts in this thread.
