Hoping that some of the sage ladies here who are approaching or have already seen their 2nd Saturn return in life, can offer some insight to me, to others, about the differences you experienced during your 2nd Saturn Return.
As for me, I always think of Saturn as the weeding out planet - and I know for myself, from the period of time of my first return up to now, I've done so much weeding out in my life - things, people, fantasies and expectations, that I wonder what's left to "weed out". At 55 - I've pretty much cleared the decks of the past 27 years - friendships that were troubling but obligatory; family relations that were even more troubling and even more obligatory; career paths that I had embarked on and discovered were unsatisfying after all. As well, having released old loves, old flames, old obsessions that had such a grip on me for so long that I thought I'd never get beyond them.
My thoughts on my 2nd return.
Grandchildren. I'm at a ripe age for wanting to be a presence in my grandchild's life. To be able to run and jump and play and take them on outings. However, as fate has it thus far, my only child, who is now 27, is years, maybe decade away from having children or maybe he never will. He has no interest in marriage or family at this stage in his life and career, and he actually told me yesterday, "Mom, I have to beat girls away with a stick to get them to understand I'm all about my career right now". So, maybe that's one of the fantasies I will have to weed out of my life, being a grandmother.
Owning a successful business. I have only recently embarked on one of my life-long dreams of being a business owner. Running my own show and making money from it. Although my steps are small, I realize that I am so far behind in technology and the "trends" of business, and, knowing honestly that I have no desire at age 55 to get with the program, or the programs, or the apps, or whatever.
I've also found myself sorting through 40 years of poetry that I've written, liiterally shredding much of it because so much of it reflected really sad, desperate emotions and relationship experiences and truthfully, I don't want the baggage of hanging onto it because it is all meaningless to me at this point. However, I am still "producing" - writing poetry and it's been interesting to see the shift from relations and emotions to more worldly, humanistic concerns.
For those familiar with my appreciation for Saturn, it shouldn't be surprising that I anticipate my 2nd return. This last square of Saturn to my IC - mother's death, relocation, family shut-downs - all pretty hard on me and isolating too. Prior to my 1nd return, all within a 1-2 year period, Saturn will conjoin Jupiter first, then the return and then it will square my MC - around the same time that Uranus is in conjunction of MC. It does seem a bit daunting, so I could use some realistic experiences from others to help.
So I ask earnestly, What circumstances of life did you find yourself "weeding out" during your 2nd return?
