Lessons in Love, Patience, and Self-Discovery
In the cosmic dance of planetary transits, a square aspect between Venus and Saturn brings a complex interplay between passion and restraint. One of the major feelings accompanying this transit is "I can never get what I want." Even when presented with everything the heart desires, there is still a small piece of us thinking we have to reject it and search for something else. This is a hard transit that can blow many great loves off course.
Venus represents not just love but also joy, romance, and abundance. When Saturn enters the picture with its cold, restrictive touch, these areas feel compressed. The question Saturn poses isn’t meant to punish but to provoke self-reflection:
"What truly matters to you when everything else falls away?"
Though this dynamic can feel painful, it offers an invaluable gift—patience and emotional clarity. But these lessons can only be harvested through self-understanding and acceptance.
Important Lesson: Ask yourself what kind of love truly nourishes you
This aspect forces us to pause and reflect on what kind of love feeds our soul. For signs like Aries and Cancer, who thrive on spontaneity and emotional flow, Saturn’s influence may feel like a heavy weight. Rejection and isolation are common under this transit, and joy feels just out of reach. But Saturn’s restrictions are not meant to block us forever—they are an invitation to look beyond fleeting pleasures and seek deeper fulfillment.
In moments of constraint, we gain the clarity to recognize what we truly want to hold onto when the pressure eases. These are the moments that shift our perspective, helping us understand what truly brings value to our lives.
Mars Trine Neptune: A Balancing Act
Fortunately, amidst the heaviness of Venus square Saturn, we also have Mars trine Neptune—a soothing counterbalance. This harmonious aspect brings a sense of creative flow into our routines and relationships, offering clarity about what motivates us. It is much easier to swim upwards if you see the light.
Navigating Emotional Absence and Longing
During Venus square Saturn, you might notice an aching sense that something is missing, or you may find yourself longing for someone no longer in your life. These feelings are natural under this transit, and instead of resisting them, it’s essential to sit with them. In these quiet spaces of longing, we begin the healing process and uncover what we truly need to feel whole again.
Gratitude might seem elusive during this time, but even small moments of appreciation are worth holding onto. This isn’t a period for superficial joys but a time to align with what truly matters. Don't be afraid to provide answers to difficult questions.
Key Dates and Timeframe
The influence of Venus square Saturn will be active until approximately November 3rd, with its effects lingering for a few days beyond. Pay attention to how this transit impacts your relationships and personal goals. You may feel a sense of pressure or limitation but trust that these experiences are guiding you toward deeper emotional clarity.
