examples of ugly transits + progressions (ie. mine)

t. saturn square n.sun
<b>p.</b> moon square n. venus
t. venus square t. saturn

had t. saturn square my sun 3 times (1 tight, 2 loose) since jan/february 2014. all 3 episodes were extremely stressful and uncomfortable. sacrifice and pain definatley recurring themes. with the hard progressed moon squaring n. venus happening in conjunction with horrible transits i just wonder, is this even a normal occurance or I was a ****** person in a past life lol

3 crap events to coincide with t. saturn square n. sun (jan 2014 - aug 2015)

- a guy whom i felt was stalking at work appeared outside my house, was going to house across the street. couldnt focus on my studies & was constantly distracting myself
- had open surgery
- my stepdad is paranoid about my mother leaving him and is hearing voices. both sun/venus transits this year have been super fun!

Yes, you do have some tough Saturn transits recently, but those are nearly over. Saturn square natal Uranus can be especially hard on the nerves. That will be over the end of Sept. Best thing to do with that period is practice some method of deep relaxation. Breathe deep, slow, and diffuse stress with your intention at every exhale.

Unless your natal rising sign is off by two signs the progressed Moon aspect to your Venus is long over +<2 degrees>. Progressed aspects are in effect when they are within only minutes of arc of exact, not degrees. You currently have no major progressed aspects by Pluto to anything in your chart.

Often what happens with shorter transits by Jupiter is that they dramatize patterns set into place by longer-lasting transits by Pluto, Neptune, Saturn, etc.

BTW - that Jupiter transit is still in effect. It is NOT yet over. It is still square to your natal Uranus a bit longer -- great for breaking out of ruts. And it is now [12N30] applying to parallel with your natal Mercury [11N53]. A great time for renewing your optimism.

We can't sit passively waiting for something better to come to us. We have to see these (beneficial) transits as windows of opportunity to utilize for our benefit. This is in the spirit of electional astrology, but it doesn't have to be complicated at all. If you know you've got Jupiter transits, then prepare a mindset that matches: growth, renewal, optimism, etc.

haha oh no i never wait for positive transits to bless me with a happy ending! im usually quite an optimistic person at heart (despite cap rising) so i tend to look on the bright side just by habit..awful things at home began exactly when this big conjunction came into effect and i ended up losing focus on exciting things i wanted to do. i became very stressed as my stepfather became ill and has began accusing me of trying to kill him?? made me extremely anxious and a bit frightened, putting me off my own plans. its being sorted now though thank goodness. its unlikely he'll ever come out of it and hopefully i'll be back out on my own again soon, my mother isnt too keen on taking care of him as she isnt getting any younger and she doesnt love him anymore (hasn't for years).

I feel that difficult progressed aspects and difficult transits coincide because we are SUPPOSED to go through something.
Right now I am experiencing progressed moon in Scorpio, progressed Mars square Sun, progressed Mars opposite Uranus, and transit Pluto squaring my sun. A few months ago, my progressed moon was conjunct my natal Pluto my .1 degrees and the Pluto square Sun transit was exact. That day my entire life turned upside down, and I am a different person now than I was even a few months ago.
This is truly the most difficult time in my whole life, but even now I feel that these transits happened for a reason. I am learning some Pluto lessons. I am changing as a person. I am getting ready for whatever is coming next.
I'm guessing you are learning some Saturn lessons. You are getting rid of what is no longer needed in your life. I'm sure it feels very oppressive, but I feel that if you are simultaneously experiencing difficult progressed aspects and transits then you are learning something and changing for the better.

YES to everything i do feel all this was meant to be. the test is in full effect (man i hope i pass!! LMAOOO) its been tough as old boots but i have also learnt alot about myself in the past year or so. you having a rough time as well? i hope things get better for you really soon , pluto sent me round the bend a few years back as well. honestly what a lot of hooha! but i came out alot stronger for it too. pluto can be scary but also strenghtening? i did feel renewed as you do.
