Okay, here’s my attempt at writing a blog post in the style you requested, about “transiting Saturn square Sun”:
So, I’ve been diving deep into astrology lately, trying to make sense of, well, everything. And one transit that’s been kicking my butt is this transiting Saturn square my Sun. Let me tell you, it’s been a process.
Getting Started
First, I pulled up my chart. I use this, like, super basic free chart generator online – nothing fancy. I needed to see exactly where Saturn was in relation to my natal Sun. Boom. There it was, a big ol’ square. For those who are new with charts，Squares, in astrology speak, basically mean tension, challenges, and a need to work really hard.
The Deep Dive
I knew generally Saturn is about restrictions, limitations, responsibilities.
I knew generally Sun is about self-expression, vitality, core identity.
I started to combine words, thinking of how to prepare myself.
- Saturn – restrictions, limitations.
- Sun – self-expression.
I started journaling. Every day, I would just free-write about how I was feeling. I noticed patterns, mostly this gnawing feeling that I wasn’t “good enough,” that I wasn’t living up to my potential, or that I was somehow failing. It felt heavy, like carrying a backpack full of rocks. This all is really Saturn square Sun’s energy!
The Work (Ugh)
The next step was the hardest. I started to identify specific areas where I felt this “restriction” and “lack of self-expression.” For me, it was in my work. I was playing it small, not taking risks, not really putting myself out there. Saturn was basically saying, “Time to grow up and get serious!”
So, I made some concrete changes. I started saying “yes” to projects that scared me. I started speaking up more in meetings, even when I was terrified. It wasn’t about being perfect; it was about showing up, doing the work, and being responsible for my own growth. It was baby steps. Very, very small steps. Some days, I just wanted to hide under the covers.
The (Slow) Shift
I’m still in the thick of it, but I’m starting to see glimpses of light. The pressure hasn’t completely gone away, but I feel stronger. I’m more confident in my abilities, even when things are hard. I’m learning to be patient with myself and to trust the process. I’m starting to think of Saturn not as this big, scary monster, but more like a tough-love coach who’s pushing me to be my best self.
I celebrate myself keep going on, one step at a time.
It’s definitely not a walk in the park, but I’m learning so much about myself, my limitations, and my potential. If you’re going through this transit too, hang in there. It’s tough, but you’re growing, even if it doesn’t feel like it. And remember, we’re all just figuring it out as we go along.
