Natal and transiting Saturn in 5th house...anyone experienced this?

[nepredil696]

Ok so currently Saturn is transiting my 4th house, and will enter my 5th house sometime this October, and I am getting very nervous, because natally I have Saturn in the 5th house and I figure having a transiting Saturn in 5th house would be like a double whammy

Having a natal Saturn is a pain in the neck, low confidence level is a norm for me, and lots of trouble with self-expression and creativity made life seem like a drag. So I consciously avoided creative endeavors and since then life stopped being a burden and became very pleasant. Now that Saturn is entering my fifth house I don't know what to expect.

So has anyone experienced such a situation? I would be very grateful if someone would share their experience with me, it would really help me out a lot.

Thanks in advance!

i am going through the same thing. saturn moved into my 5th for a short time before going retrograde back into my 4th. now it is about to move back into my 5th. when it was in my 5th i really felt the "double whammy" that you were refering to. i really felt a sense that it was time to face my fears and put some work into expressing my creativity. i have always had creative ideas, but never seemed to have the time and the resources to bring them into form. i've always had the feeling that i am not reaching my potential. but the cool part is that when saturn hit my 5th, opportunities began to surface. so i decided to make a commitment. at first i felt like a no talent loser and i regreted avoiding my creativity for so long. i thought about how much further i would be if i had started years earlier. it sucked. but once i started seeing things come into form, i felt a lot better. i began to feel a new sense of prestige. believe me, it felt gooood. then saturn moved back into my fourth and i had to pick up and move to a new city. i am looking forward to finally having my home re-established so i can get back to work on my creations. i think you may want to ask yourself which 5th house activity you are most passionate about and make a commitment to it. its what helped me when i was getting down on myself at the beginning of the transit.
