Your Saturn indicates:

I bet you love Indiana Jones movies and any about ancient egypt, would make you feel good inside and like you're with old friends :-)

Saturn is the Grand Tester so your 4th House will be your arena for testing and setbacks, since your approach to this house affairs has been incorrect in prior lifetimes. So yes, that explains your home life challenges ! But you're doing great, the constant re-evaluation you're doing is the right strategy :-)
Don't worry, for any challenging aspect , there is a perfect solution somewhere in the chart. Nature loves balance !

If I may suggest from one Sat-RX to another , look closely at all the aspect patterns (kites, grand trines etc), they are your tools to this incarnation. I think that if we set ourselves up for these ultimate life tests ( we chose/agreed to these), then we came equipped with an arsenal of all the knowledge and tools accumulated over lifetimes that will help us succeed, they are at our disposal. I am sure that you are probably using some or most of yours subconsciously anyway, because you are an old soul and you are guided intuitively to the right decisions and solutions, but studying your natal chart closely will be of tremendous help to ease the distress of the heavy weight that you have to bare.... moreover, it will give you so much internal peace and bliss :-)
And if at any moment you are doubting this lifetime, because youre so much soulful than the reality around you, remember that we are souls having a human experience and only through the material we can achieve what we came here for.

Wow, you pegged it! LOVE Indiana Jones! I also loved the Mummy movies, anything Egyptian themed! It all feels familiar and warm, but unlike any feeling I could truly explain. If I could be anything in life, it would be a treasure hunter, lol...but not necessarily material treasures. Something about uncovering old, lost secrets tickles my fancy. The need to see beneath the surface, and to bring that which is in the shadows to light is strong within me. The National Treasure movies are some of my faves too! I definitely want to look deeper into this now, I wonder if I look into some of the asteroids named for that time period, they could help me make further connections.

It's kind of comforting to hear your view of re-evaluation. I haven't really given it a positive spin like that! I have looked at it as a downfall, as if I just can't get it right, so I have make a new approach...and then something different comes along, and I have to adjust my approach again. It is kind of frustrating when I look at it that way. But the way you put it, re-evaluation is necessary, and over the course, the little tweaks of change will finally fall into place together. Kind of like it can't happen all at once, but through lesson to push the changes...maybe because of the fixed energy that just oozes from me. I also have uranus, sitting his pesky unpredictable butt in the 4th..he really likes to stir things up for me, and since he rules my desc. I take it he does this in the form of other people...he's tricky like that! I have a feeling, that in past lifetimes I ditched the home front when the going got tough...I was not steadfast and was possibly unpredictable...hence why these lessons keep creeping back up on me. Saturn wants to know my strength? He wants to know my devotion and what lengths I will go without giving in and heading for the hills? Gah, his lessons are tough, and sometimes confusing when you have to wait for the positive outcomes to reward you! You catch yourself second guessing, doubting that the right choices were made.

So, old man Saturn makes an exact square to my mercury/asc conjunction. I'm not sure what to do with that. He casts a trine to my sun/mars conjunction, which I believe if I use correctly, will help me remain steadfast...not allowing myself to bug out and just walk away when the going gets tough. Venus, though no aspect connection, sits in his house (10th) in Gemini. Maybe why I am not the typical Gemini Venus? I'm quite unwavering when it comes to love and my values, my husband and I are high school sweethearts with nearly 16 years under our belt. I DO believe we are hashing out much unfinished business this lifetime. His uranus sits exactly on my saturn, and his moon is conjunct my sun/mars conj. We bring out the best and worst in each other simultaneously. I'm still unsure how to use these gifts, but I believe that I will one day figure it out, probably without even knowing that's what I'm doing, lol.

I never saw myself as an old soul, I figured an old soul would have this stuff hashed out with the know how of wisdom. Though, I have been told, by my elders, that I'm wise beyond my years. I have a keen sense of what should be done, of how to do it...it's just implementation that trips me up. Kinda like I can give amazing, really soulful advice...but actually living it, whole different ballgame for me, lol. I don't have many friends, by choice. I just feel like I have so much baggage to sort through in this short lifetime, that it would be unfair to another that I cannot devote to helping them with theirs...at least not at this point in my life, maybe as I get older and understand myself and my own inner workings better.

To end my book (I am so sorry for this, lol) I love your reminder! "We are souls having a human experience and only through the material we can achieve what we came here for". Such timely advice, considering I don't take much time to put myself out into the world as often as I should. This plane is superficial to me, to a point that it sometimes seems pointless, unless I get a deep connection from another. Thank you so very much Nova! You have truly opened my eyes to ideas I didn't really entertain that often. I am so appreciative of your words!

What is this influence? This could be some talents, or knowledge you can tap into, or lessons to remember, some unfinished business etc...There should be various clues in the chart and perhaps in your life. Look around you, at things you collect or not, various tastes, likes and dislikes for things, places etc... look for repeating patterns. You may want to research this period of history, see if you find things are familiar in some way. Some memory recollection could also be present.The theme may also come through dreams, or as symbolic images in meditations.

Astrological Age is calculated from the precession of the equinoxes. Check books on karmic astrology, Astrological theology or Astrological Ages. The precession of the ages is a highly disputed subject. It works for me and some charts I've looked at so far. You have to decide for yourself.

I see, Nova. Well now that I think of it, I have always loved celtic music and tribal music (among others). Have you seen Time Machine? Well the Eloi people song is wonderful! https://youtu.be/XRdSjwr-9ks
