Okay, so I’ve been messing around with astrology charts lately, trying to figure some stuff out. And I stumbled on this whole “Saturn in the 11th house” thing, and honestly, it kinda freaked me out at first.
I started by pulling up my chart on one of those free websites – you know, the ones where you punch in your birth date and time. I was never super serious about astrology, but curiosity got the better of me. Boom, there it was: Saturn, smack-dab in my 11th house.
Initial Panic (and Googling)
Naturally, I googled it. And let me tell you, the initial results were not encouraging. Words like “restrictions,” “limitations,” and “difficulties in friendships” jumped out at me. I was like, “Great, is this saying I’m doomed to be a friendless loner?”
Digging a Little Deeper
But I decided to dig a bit deeper. I found some more nuanced interpretations. It wasn’t all doom and gloom. Some sources talked about how this placement could mean that I take my friendships really seriously. That I might have a smaller circle of close friends, but those relationships are rock-solid. That actually resonated with me.
I then spent sometime to recall my past social experience. I found that it’s hard to get into a group for me, ususlly I don’t know what to say and what to do. I also found that it’s hard for me to build real and close friendships with others.
My Personal Experiment
So, here’s what I’ve been doing. Instead of freaking out, I’m trying to work with this energy, not against it. Here’s my little experiment:
- Focusing on Quality over Quantity: I’m not trying to be the most popular person in the room. I’m putting my energy into the friendships I already have, the ones that really matter.
- Being More Intentional: I’m making a conscious effort to reach out to my friends, to plan things, to be there for them. It’s not always easy, but it feels good.
- Being a Better Friend: I’m working on being more reliable, more supportive, more present. I’m thinking about what it means to be a good friend and actively trying to embody that.
- Reaching Out: If I want to make new friends, I would make an effort to reach out to the people who I am willing to make friends with.
The Results (So Far)
It’s still early days, but I’m already seeing some positive changes. My existing friendships feel stronger, deeper. I feel more connected, more supported. And I’m learning a lot about myself in the process.
I realized that my friend circle become smaller and smaller, but the relationships are getting stronger. It feels good to have someone to rely on.
So, yeah, Saturn in the 11th house? It’s not a death sentence for your social life. It’s more like a… challenge. A challenge to be a better friend, to build stronger relationships, and to appreciate the people who are truly there for you.
