How do you handle power? Your desire nature? Intimate relationships? What kind of obsessions and addictions do you have? What are your deep-rooted compulsions? What are your unhealthy attachments?
These are very difficult questions and questions I have actually been facing about myself since, oh about August, Septemberish....it is actually very uncomfortable. No wonder!
SmilingS, can't remember or find your chart to check if you have any natal planets in 8th?

I will put up my chart here If you dont mind taking a look?
Now I have T Saturn currently in 8th and soon to leave when it changes to libra. I have jupiter in virgo there, trine mercury in 4th square mars in 5th. When T saturn conj natal jupiter -- nothing.
Oh no!!! Would you relate this to the mars aspect being squared by Saturn? Because Mars is in your 5th house, not to mention your Jupiter in the 8th may have been conjunct as well?
I have seen so many women have issues with HRT! Kinda makes you wonder if there is anything else out there? Exogenous hormones do not work the same, even though the Gyno's who are male swear by them, but the patients dont seem to have any relief! It is awful!
Keywords for saturn then, hard work, limitations, restrictions, feeling unsure, unconfident regarding joint finances. BUT 8th is also about 'other people's values, whereas 2nd is our personal values -- we are testing other's values against our own to see what is valid in cautious saturnian way
I made a copy of this list, it is succinct and to the point, thank you!
Plus 8th is the house of inheritance and if you were hoping to get or resolve any of these matters (you or partner) would prob feel heavily burdened by them with lots of delays going on
Well when my mother passed, we found out credit cards in my sisters names, literally scattered througout the house. My poor sister didnt even know that was happening. My mom had a large gambling habit.
Financial support as well as spiritual, emotional and physical support are also addressed by this House. It's a time to stand alone without too much support network around you. Plus wherever Saturn stands or transits is where we 'lack confidence' -- there may well be a whole host of matters going on. I shall be **** glad when it leaves 8th house
I am scared with this one....I know this may sound wierd but when I saw my husband I said, I am gonna marry him, then I thought, he might die early....why would I think these things? Could be my negative thinking patterns, one being mercury in the 4th, square saturn in the 7th? I have always been afraid of things being taken from me, because they really have. Now this transit seems like it is making me obsessed with things being taken, I feel sort of stingy! Usually I give and give, no problem.
I am very afraid that this transit might be very bad?
Putting fears in my mind that I may lose someone, who deeply means a lot to me.
Pluto in the 8th house natally, I am sure I will have to give up power...I am scared when those two become conjunct, two very powerful forces, dark as well.
Hope this helps
It sure does!
