During the transit of Saturn conjunct with your Natal Moon, you’re likely to experience a period of profound introspection. This can feel quite intense as Saturn imposes its karmic debts and old-school rulebook on your emotional core, symbolized by the Moon. Balancing family obligations and professional responsibilities can bring about an unwelcome mix of stress and mental strain. To navigate this, avoid overloading yourself and prioritize what truly matters. Lightening your approach to life—smiling more, for instance—can surprisingly uplift your spirits and mitigate self-critical tendencies that lead to self-destructive thoughts.
This transit can act as a mirror, reflecting your innermost fears and vulnerabilities, compelling you to confront them head-on. It’s crucial to remain aware of the need to both give and receive love and compassion from those around you. An open mind will make all the difference. Shutting down could alienate you, leading to feelings of loneliness or even a sense of being disconnected from your roots and family, including older women and maternal figures. These emotions, if unaddressed, can create an unnecessary chasm between you and your loved ones.
Now is not the ideal time to make significant decisions, especially concerning relationships. Deep within this introspective period, you might feel the weight of Saturn’s restrictions, potentially causing some depressive spells. Prioritize your well-being by maintaining a balanced diet and focusing on mental health. If any relationships seem to falter, let them be for now; rushing to fix things might be counterproductive. Use this period to focus on your emotions and understand what you genuinely desire from your personal connections.
Take solace in the fact that this transit, though challenging, is an opportunity for growth and realignment. Remember, even in the hardest times, there’s always a path to self-discovery and improvement. A simple yet impactful takeaway for navigating this period: “A smile is the shortest distance between two people. Use it often.”
It’s 12 minutes after midnight on August 19th. Saturn is at 17 degrees Pisces 29′. My Natal Moon is at 17 degrees Pisces 28′. I was just in my room crying. I couldn’t stop. I had flashes of my self as an infant, and I felt emotionally there again. I felt confused, scared, helpless,sad and in a state of perpetual waiting or anticipation. You see I was in a foster home in Fairfax, VA. From birth until I was 7 months old. I met my birth mother when I was 27. She told me she would come see me every week on her day off. I really feel that the here, then gone, then here again presence of my birth mother in my life those 7 months until one day when she held me for the last time emotionally traumatized me. Right now we are also within 10 hours of the full Moon in Aquarius. So somehow, the Saturn/Moon conjunction in Pisces exact my Natal Moon happening within hours of the Full Moon in Aquarius allowed me to somehow revisit my trauma that created my abandonment issues.
