I had a boss that used to do that.
Stressful to feel like you could lose your job at a whim.

Don't quit what you 'love'..
You'll have benefits available to help you if they are the ones letting you go?

If you've passed-through several of these 'eliminations' before, there's a chance you'll stay?

Based on your descrption it sounds as if your falling into the typical Gemini sun behaviour of I want to run or just get away from the situation.

I know its not easy...I just had a bad code demo with my thesis supervisors today and I feel like running away.

I keep telling myself to calmly reason what to do next.

The biggest strength of a gemini sun when there placed in a tough situation is to plan and play both outcomes, that's our strength.

So I've already drew up all my options and outcomes and planed on how to deal with whatever might hit me.

For your case I whouldn't quit right now.

I'd just get a side job that way your prepared in case you get axed.

But I whouldn't resign just in case you end up being the person your boss ends up wanting to keep.

At least that way you've seen all angles and prepared for it, a Gemini sun should be exceptionally skilled at doing that and of course if all else fails then run...

All of my coworkers are hardworking and are very deserving of their job.

Ugh. I'm tired of my life being in constant upheaval. I knew this job was too good to be true.....

I believe she's a Gemini sun with Scorpio somewhere...I think either Asc or moon.

I've become vary impressed with people with scorpio moon or asc lately. They can be surprisingly caring..just don't hurt them then you'll get the scorpio sting.

I'm on the fence on this one.. I use to do a lot of nice things for my coworkers until I got stabbed in the back by one of them.

Unless there your besties..I whouldn't.

Some people who appear to be in a rough patch end up proving your wrong and being incredibly resilient.

Put yourself first Astra!!. Your number 1 first and foremost.

What a wonderfully Compassionate soul you have, Astra! *hug* {{ }}

I see your Sun-Mercury and Chiron in your 5th. The 5th House has to do with children.
Mercury does too.

The guilt.. I have been in that similar kind of situation before. I understand how that feels..

You have "stress" from being with a company that seems untrustworthy, cut-throat, and even unstable. It's HARD to have that 'background' feeling like you can be eliminated at their next whim. In that situation, I would feel nervous all the time. (Been THERE too!! Much more inner peace to ditch that situation. You want 'work' to provide a 'balance' for you.)

Then, you have the "stress" of seeing those mothers IN that same unstable work situation, but their incomes support families.

BECAUSE you have that stress of having a tender Heart for others, you won't be able to 'shake' that. You need to protect yourself by working for a GOOD company.

Some folks easily can be 'me first'....
(And in general, it's good to have your own interests represented in 'equal' to others.)

Other folks (like me ~oy) would NOT be able in deepest self to bring that conflicting matter (of good conscience) to an inner-resolve. It's just the way you're wired, and there's nothing wrong with that-- in fact, that's quite humanitarian and VERY okay that people like you exist in this world, Astra. That's SUCH a Blessing.

Stress, stress, stress.
Better to find a position somewhere else that treats its employees 'like' family.

Atmosphere at work can be EVERYTHING.
You might want to work in a place that feels like home to you.
Venus on your IC, 4th.
The 4th House includes work-atmospheres.

Like someone else said here..
Start finding another position (for your own feeling free from that yucky situation).

And, you'll have "good karma" stored from your heart wanting to protect the women and children. *hug*

Have you posted this in Personal Readings with your chart?

It's hard to give any astrological input if we don't know your chart. If you want to post it, Personal Readings is the place to do it.

I came across your chart stored in mini form in google and can see it well enough to at least tell you this ...

A large part of what you're experiencing now is the dual transit of Saturn & Pluto conjunct natal Mercury. Saturn is closer now and timing this. Saturn conjunct natal Mercury is often a time for saying goodbye to old ways of thinking and/or old patterns of communication. The best results come when you can process things internal as they are relevant to you and what meets your inner sense of integrity. During this transit you can find out you may've been wrong about some things or that you need to withdraw from some communications in order to process things internally.

This transit is the beginning of reform in your thinking. Saturn may have presented the problem so to speak, but Pluto will continue this process well beyond the current situation. It is a slower transformation that can effect your beliefs and how you approach analysis, etc.

So in a sense your quandary is right on time.

To get more specific I think it is better to do it in Personal Readings, but I'll leave this thread here for however you want to use it.

I'm a Gemini sun with a Capricorn moon and Capricorn rising. My chart ruler, Saturn is in Scorpio. Both Saturn and Pluto are in Scorpio in my 10th house with Pluto conjunct MC. Pluto also aspects all of my inner planets, so I have a lot of Scorpionic energy. DualGem, you are absolutely correct about the scorpio sting!

Mirage:

I work in management in the healthcare industry, which is not quite as stable as people think. Layoffs happen every now and then at the management and administrative levels. This happens at every hospital and it's something I can't avoid in my career unless I choose a lower-ranked position.

The good news is that at the last minute, Corporate offered one of my coworkers a different position, which he accepted. My other coworkers were able to find employment elsewhere, so my job is safe for now.

Kannon:

That explains a lot. I have definitely been a lot more withdrawn in my communication. Right now I have transiting Saturn square MC, which makes everything concerning my career uncertain.
