Alright, let’s talk about what I did when transiting Saturn was conjunct my natal Venus. Sounds fancy, huh? Basically, it’s an astrology thing where Saturn, the planet of discipline and hard work, lined up with Venus, the planet of love and relationships, in my birth chart. This transit started a while back, and I decided to document the whole journey. I’ve gotta say, it’s been a ride.
First off, I noticed some changes in my relationships. Not just romantic ones, but with friends and family, too. Things started to feel a bit… serious. I felt this heavy need to really look at these relationships and figure out what was working and what wasn’t. It wasn’t always fun. There were some tough conversations and a few moments where I just wanted to run away and hide. But I stuck with it, because deep down, I knew this was important.
Digging Deep into Relationships
I started by making a list of all the important people in my life. Then, I tried to be super honest with myself about how I felt in each relationship. Where did I feel supported? Where did I feel drained? It was like taking an inventory of my emotional life. Some relationships were thriving, and others… well, they needed some work. I reached out to a few close friends and family members, and we had some heart-to-hearts. It was awkward at times, but also really rewarding. We talked about our expectations, our boundaries, and what we needed from each other. I realized that some relationships were a bit one-sided, and I had to make some adjustments.
Building Stronger Foundations
After those initial conversations, I focused on building stronger foundations. This meant setting better boundaries, being more consistent, and really showing up for the people I cared about. I made more of an effort to stay in touch, plan quality time, and just be there for them. It was hard work, and it took time, but slowly but surely, I started to see a difference. My relationships felt more solid, more real. We were communicating better, and there was a new level of trust and understanding.
Reflecting on My Own Needs
- Recognized my own patterns in relationships.
- Identified areas where I needed to grow.
- Worked on my self-esteem and self-worth.
- Started saying “no” more often to protect my energy.
During this time, I also did a lot of self-reflection. I had to take a good, hard look at my own needs and desires in relationships. I noticed that I often put other people’s needs before my own, which was a recipe for resentment. I started to prioritize my own well-being and made sure I was taking care of myself, too. This was a big shift for me. I learned to say “no” when I needed to, and I didn’t feel guilty about it. I started to see that taking care of myself made me a better partner, friend, and family member.
Overall, this Saturn conjunct Venus transit has been a period of growth and transformation in my relationships. It hasn’t been easy, but it’s been worth it. I’ve learned so much about myself and the people I care about. My relationships are stronger and more authentic now, and I feel more confident in myself. I know there’s still work to do, but I’m committed to continuing this journey. After all, building strong relationships is a lifelong process, and I’m in it for the long haul.
