What happened? Longterm relationship broke up (late Saturn in Virgo but once Saturn entered Libra, I was dead emotionally, socially, etc. every Libran theme was attacked) and we've been silent towards each other since. Made new friends but also lost some on the way- really learned and know the true meaning of friendship. Took several random trips to out of the way places I never thought I'd have any interest in (after I got laid off). Reconnected with my physical obsessions over sports. Realized that I love and am quite good at writing and turned it into my profession. Saw my best friend for the first time in 5 years knew that we'd stay friends for life. Felt like I'm an "adult" for the first time in my adult life. Gave into my very Saturnine influences and habits and really like it. Constantly alone and just learned to put up with it and even enjoy being completely solo for the first time in my life. I feel more daring and bold in my decisions. I take more calculated risks. I actually started to think about the future and my mortality. Dating/love/romance nonexistent. Reconnected with my parents after 5 yrs of silence and can relate to my parents for the first time in life (both my parents had strokes within a few months apart and that made me bounce back). Have extreme difficulty breathing easy and sleeping, not eating much.

The list can go on to a catalog... I'm just glad that Saturn will hop onto Scorpio very soon and the Scorpio Saturn generation can start suffering while the Libra Saturn generation (we got beaten up pretty badly didn't we?) can start to recuperate.

My parents are fine... they had their stroke in the beginning when Saturn entered Libra in 2009. Both my parents bounced back and I came back to them. We formed a family again, but this time, the way that I relate to my parents now is the way I wanted for so very long. I finally got to the point of getting along with my parents and my parents understand and treat me like an adult (even though we all know I'm forever their child). My parents understood my Saturnine persona and appreciate that I came into the world with them and that they didn't have to teach me. My parents told me they loved me for the first time in my life. We even hugged. None of us are touchy feely people at all.

This only took my 1st Saturn's return and them having a stroke and going through the throes of their divorce for all of us to be reunited. It's funny that Saturn in Libra recreates unity through rifts, isn't it?

I watched all my friends pair off and got married and most of them have kids. I'm the lone one that's single, with no one, not even a potential prospect. I don't even see children in my future and probably won't have any. I have Pisces moon so it's very tough on me emotionally to be "alone" for so long and I'm just getting to the point where I might have to accept that it may not be in the cards for me like it is for "normal" people.

Now at end of saturn in libra: my job has moved in a new direction, am building training so I can move on after this year.

Relationships: both love and family tested to the limits! Almost lost all contact with my mum, my ex broke up with me, got involved with another bad guy (got out of it though) and now happily single.

Am so excited for saturn in scorpio.....thanks to libra, my life has been restructured and all is ok now.
