I should be so lucky Lol. I have a platonic attraction for people who are spiritual and/or resemble Saturnian traits in their character. I started my Saturn return back in April 2010, which means that on 5th October later this year, when Saturn completes its transition into Scorpio I would have completed the first third of the my Saturn return.
I have had a fairly tough time since it began. I broke up with my ex-girlfriend in April 2010. Although we didn’t have a long relationship, the breakup for me was excruciatingly painful. It was one of those “The world has come to an end” types of breakups. For most of the remainder of 2010, I was actually pretty depressed due to this breakup and felt like nothing was going to get better. In 2011, I handed in my notice to leave my previous employment and strangely enough, I actually didn’t finish serving my one month notice simply because I fell ill pretty and am still suffering from the same condition one year on. (Both of these events materialising due to the commencement of my Saturn return).
At present I’ve actually become somewhat of a monastic person in search of spiritual enhancement, whilst refraining myself from the rest of the world and introspecting most of the time. So I guess that in October the real rollercoaster begins. L Regardless my worship towards my Lord and Master (Saturn himself) shall continue, in my hope to constrict if not nullify his negativity.
With regard to your point about Jupiter conjunct Saturn, I have yet another question for you – As an individual who happens to have this combination in their natal chart, which is more important for you: knowledge (Jupiter) or Karma (Saturn)?
It’s very interesting to note how you tend to tell/show people what they don’t want to hear or see. In reference to your last paragraph in your previous post, would you say that Saturnians are either aggressive and/or vindictive?
The earliest I've heard of people "starting" their Saturn's return is 27. You're not even 27 yet. How can you start your Saturn's return when transiting Saturn isn't even in your sign yet?
I think you are confusing Saturn transiting your chart with Saturn's return: they are not the same thing. People who are conscious of Saturn may start to feel his effects in their mid-20s but Saturn's return is a time when transiting Saturn is in your natal Saturn's sign and will plow through your chart and make you rebuild your life- inside and out. A person experiences their first Saturn's return, roughly from The earliest I've heard of Saturn crossing their chart is 28 but the general is 29.5 yrs. The latest I've heard of is 32 yrs old. I have very early Saturn and it crossed my chart a few months after I turned 29. My lawyer friend's late Libra Saturn experienced a completely shutdown when Saturn crossed his chart 28 1/2 years old (last Nov).
I think you need to rethink your talk of Saturn's return. You won't feel Saturn's rings around you until he enters Scorpio. Trust me, I definitely felt something tightening around me when Saturn entered Libra and I wasn't even astrologically "aware" at that time. What you've experienced is just a slight wind of nice Libra Saturn, no need for you to rush because your Scorpio Saturn storm will hit you in due time.
Exalted Saturnians are probably not likely to be aggressive or vindictive... except, possibly, if their Saturn conjuncts Pluto which happens for people born mid 1983. The point of exalted Saturn is to
learn how to treat others fairly
regardless of how they are. I've been tested on that many times and there are days when I want to destroy everything simply because I think it's "stupid." Yet, I've learned to tell myself that it's not worth it and move on. That's a really hard lesson to grasp, with or without exalted natal Saturn. I just think that if you have exalted Saturn, it would be a bit easier to grasp the hard lessons and have a less yucky time integrating them into your life.
As for the other Saturnians, like Aries, Leo, yes they can be quite vicious. Why? Because they are in debilitated positions. Saturn hates fire and the arrogance that goes with them which means Aries, Leo, Sag. Fire Saturns tend to overstep and cause others to be victims. Although, I tend to think Sag Saturn people are quite decent and generally quite polite, and not as bad as bossy Aries and Leo. Saturn is vicious towards the water signs esp. Cancer and may cause the person to get victimized (or rather, feel victimized regularly).
When I was 26, one of my work partners, an accountant (she was a Taurus Scorpio Cancer), was in her 60s and she read my chart. I found out she had been a professional astrologer for over 30 years. She told me, "Don't worry about your Saturn's return, just stay strong and you'll be fine." When she told me that, I had no idea what the heck she was talking about and just shrugged it off. That was the only time she mentioned about me and Saturn's return and other than that, we talked about it in general terms. She did mention that during her 1st return, she divorced her first husband, separated from their daughter and towards the end met her 2nd husband. I hadn't thought about it but now that I'm nearing the end of my Saturn's return, quite possibly, I've met my future 2nd husband (the lawyer) LOL
