I hope I am posting in the right place for this.
I am wondering if anyone has any specific knowledge to the "stages" (or cycles, phases, quarters) of the Saturn Returns. We know that Saturn Returns happen around ages 28- 30 than 58 -60 etc.
I hear these called many things: cycles, phases, stages, quarters. They are the 7 to 7 1/2 periods of your 30 years of Saturn Returns, in case someone wasn't familiar. I am just learning this myself. Although I have often heard the Saturn Return called the Saturn Cycle too - which I hate because that is confusing.
That said (and revealing my age eek!), I am past my first Saturn Return (age 30ish) and I am around the end of the second "quarter" (7 or 7 1/2 years). Oh, ok, I am 41, if that helps. (bleech).
Anyhow, I have found a good amount of info on the the First Saturn Return and looking back I can see some major things that happened in my life once the first one happened and I have read some things on the the 7 year phases. But not too much on the phases of the Second Saturn return - I read that it is similar to the first and because the second phase of the First Saturn Return (puberty ages) is mostly difficult for a lot of people and the second phase of the Second Saturn Return can be too (but of course not for everyone - no, only some of us get cursed like that. )
If this is true, than HA! Yep, they are right. I know I am having a BAD one and I have a few more years to go before I am out of it. I can even pinpoint when it began - because that is when my life went down the tubes (in all areas).
Does anyone have any experiences (or reference, books, info whatever) on this? Specially I was wondering if there is anyway to look at someones chart to tell if they are in one of these "bad" quarters in their Saturn and to see when it will end, etc?
I know I could pay an astrologer to do it -but, since I am in a "bad" phase I obviously don't have any money, LOL! PLus I would like to learn about this myself anyhow and how to see it in the natal chart.
Hope this makes sense. Thanks!
EDIT: Oh, just to clarify on my level of astrology-ness. I can read and interpret a natal chart (working on the aspects). I am just finishing reading the Inner Sky.
