Hello Everyone,
Last night I got in touch with my best friend from childhood, it's been about a year since I last talked to him, and yesterday he came to me at facebook and asked if he could just vent with me, and I said sure, and listened to what he had to say. It turns out he has a lot of problems that I couldn't have imagined. When I first re-encountered him two years ago, he told me he struggled with depression and anxiety, but that he got better over the years. But last night I just seemed like I could feel him pour all his tears over the keyboard as he typed.
He mentioned he's always had problems with low self-esteem, and it seems that that has come to bite him once again, he just feels worthless and empty, he told me - worse of all, he told me that there seems to be no one who'll give him the attention he needs, he lives with his parents but I don't know how his relationship with them is. He's been to therapy many times, but I don't think that seems to be helping him. He also mentioned physical problems and discomforts like lack of air sometimes, refluxes and something he described feels like "stabs" and he says that the doctors he's been to tell him he's got nothing physically, although I suspect this might be due to his smoking habits; he says he fears his anxieties and emotional problems may turn to something phyisical. He told me he has been struggling (although he didn't told me for how long) to keep his job, which was very far from where he lives, but that recently he lost it, so he's unemployed now and going through financial difficulties, though coming from a middle upper class family. And overall, his just going through some difficult times right now. I'd greatly appreciate anyone who could help me with some insights into his chart. Detail: he lives in a different state, and we're miles apart, so the help that I'm able to give in is only by distance.
Here are my own clues about his map:
He's got a T-Square between Mars, Saturn and his own birth planet, Mercury, pointing directly at the 8th House. I think this is big deal, because it's not only affecting his ruling planet, but it's in the house of death and transformation. This suggests me he's been going or still will go through a lot of hardships in his life so that some form of personal transformation will occur and he might be healed. The Sun, another very important astro, is in the 8th House. I'd say he's got a strong 8th House influence, and from what I read, these individuals tend to feel different from others in life. I know because I also have a strong 8th House.
He also has Uranus conjuct Neptune and the North Node in the 4 House, close to the Imum Coeli. Since this house and angle deals with the deepest part of our selves, I'd wonder what these big, impersonal planetary influences could mean.
Also, he's been going through a Saturn transit through his 1st House for the past 2 years, and before that, in the 12th House. I think this could have yielded in self-esteem issues, and this is currently affecting him. Saturn is about to go through his 2nd House now, about resources and money, I think this would have to do with him loosing his job - feeling the impact of the transit before it even starts. What do you guys think?
I'd greatly appreciate any feedback.
