I was once told by an astrologer who read my natal chart that I had issues with my father - an emotional detachedness or something like that. He was looking at my Saturn in the 4th house. I wouldn't say my childhood was bad at all, although my parents were a bit conservative with their affections (both to myself and with each other). My mother was warmer towards me (she would RECEIVE hugs, for example, but rarely initiated them), while my father shyed away from any form of affection, verbal or physical. I think it did have an impact on my security as an individual (and ease around certain men especially), although I would say ironically I'm a pretty touchy-feely type person and very physically affectionate with loved ones. In some ways I felt like a square peg in a round hole growing up. What other aspects would signify weak or ambiguous relationships with fathers, or father figures? IP: Logged |

Saturn square the Sun.A fourth house Saturn can instead show issues with the mother. It just depends on what resonates with the individual 4th/Cancer/Moon vs.
10th/Capricorn/Saturn ------------------ "For all those who believe, expect a miracle.”

Well strangely, the issues with my mother came out more as I matured. The issues with my father sort of mellowed with age and before he died I was probably as close as I was ever going to get with him, although he was by no means the perfect father. My father only ever told me he loved me once in my life, when I was very low (over a breakup I think, I approached him and said I missed him). I don't think he would have ever said it to my face otherwise. My mother a bit more, but only in situations of extreme separation (when I was abroad, for example) or when I got married to someone she didn't approve of and she did the whole martyr "I've loved you since you were born, how could you do this to me?" thing on me. I think I've contributed to a lot of my parent's gray hairs, to be honest!

Jo B, Physical affection was somewhat of an acquired skill for me too. And yes, big time trouble with daddy. Sun conjunct Saturn. IP: Logged |

Agreed.
I have that aspect and sure, I have daddy issues. We just don't get along, it's impossible for us to go through a day without arguing. He's so explosive and I hate that. IP: Logged |
