I was reflecting on my 6th house today. I have moon, Pluto, Saturn, and Mars there so quite a bit of energy. I was thinking about how out of touch I was with all of this energy until my Saturn return in 2013. Before then I kept to myself and working had a horrible effect on my physical health. There was no balance (libra on the cusp) between my work/home life and nothing I tried helped so my work ethic suffered greatly until my Saturn return. That's when I started a new job and moved into my own home. These two moves opened up new ways to be and deeper connections to co workers. In almost the past ten years my closest friends have come from my work place and they've helped me learn how to balance my inner self with the outer. My Saturn is also retrograde so a lot of what came back around for me to focus on was internal and not so much what I was dealing with from around me. It was me that was out of whack. How have things been for you since your return if you've already been through it and if yours is retrograde, do you find that it's something inside of you that's keeping you from handling the house your Saturn sits in?

Wow, that's really interesting and encouraging... I am still in the midst of my Saturn return, but clearly themes have already come up. It's in my 8th house and I've already dealt with divorce, the hospitalization of a parent, the death of the other parent, depression and suicidal urges, lots of unconscious gunk emerging from my past, financial reliance, health problems, started therapy, etc. I chose to be celibate for about six months (it ended up being from around the Virgo new moon to the recent Virgo full moon) and explore some trantric practices by myself. I'd say what's held me back is 1) intense repression of the past issues I thought I was over and 2) just everything happening all at once while I'm in school and working 60+ hours/week and experiencing severe burnout. I really, really hope I can master these 8th house matters because man, this is tough. I'm curious about more people's experiences.IP: Logged |

I hope I can master 2nd house Taurus/Saturn. I have mercury & Venus in 2nd house/Taurus. My self worth doesn't have anything to do with material things like money cars homes furniture or having a beautiful home or a relationship. Mercury/Taurus in 2nd house I have to focus my mind on enjoying the simple things in life & not get depressed. I went through alot of depression with not having a daily routine & not having a beauty routine with Venus Taurus/2nd house. It's not about beauty but feeling good everyday & doing things that makes me feel good like healthy food self care routine. I got so depressed I wouldn't get out of bed but to shower brush my teeth & bathroom & to drink water & do prayer & meditation. I wasn't depressed because of money or a home or a relationship. I wasn't depressed about grief or childhood grief. I was depressed because I'm sick & couldn't do everything I use to being active. & I have to accept this with my saturn/2nd house that my life is different & I can't do everything I use to & I have to stay in bed & get better & my self worth does not depend on what I can do & being active. Venus Taurus/2nd house helps my depression & suicidal with listening to music. & to enjoy staying in bed & doing things I enjoy in bed like music & internet.IP: Logged |

Saturn always gets me ready for less. I feel I need to watch how I spend and feeling lonesome and alienated from others etc, is also prominent.I had Saturn on my Mars/Moon/Mercury in 2018-19. Before that, Sat was on my Ura/Jup/Nep At the Saturn return,Sat conj Sat felt like I was living like a monk. The flavourof my life just slowed down considerably and a general feeling of despondency took over. I felt defeated and depleted. Now that Sat has squared natal Saturn, the same feelings come about. I feel like my life has no clear direction and wonder what the point to all of this really is. Its awful😑 The good news however is that Saturn does limit rhe up/down nature of emotions. It steadies them out so.mucj that you either fall into a static pattern of feeling numb or a rigid unending feeling of "glass is half empty" outlook. People atound you may not enjoy your company when the latter. You are not a ball of fun to be around.And when the former, you will come across cold/ distant, aloofor bored. There is no win with Sat within this regards🤷🏿♂️ IP: Logged |

Saturn rules my 8th house and is in scorpio in my 6th. A lot of what you said resonated with me. I may have made my Saturn return sound better than what it actually was because my life 100% flipped upside down. Even the part about becoming celibate made me laugh out loud because that's exactly what I dud too for a few years actually. I guess I can honestly say that while it was truly awful while I was going through it (it lasted a couple of years) I just kept slipping and falling until I thought I couldn't take it any more and then... It's like the pieces started falling in place. Baby step by baby step I started becoming more of a stable person inside and not looking for anything outside to stand on for balance, it had to come from a place of contentment with who I was as a whole person. I'm still figuring that out little by little but I feel like I have a more solid foundation than before Saturn passed through my 6th house.

I have retrograde Saturn in Taurus conjunct my Aries AC. There are about 6 years left until I experience my 1st Saturn return and I just *know* that it's going to be an uphill battle until then :/. With Saturn in the 1st, it feels like I have so many barriers and restrictions around feeling comfortable in my own skin. It's even worse because I know that I'm my own problem, but I just can't solve myself right now. I wonder if that is in part due to it being retrograde. IP: Logged | |
