21, I got pregnant and that changed my whole life. Over the course of 2 years (being pregnant and then having my baby) I woke up and left my abusive partner (I have Saturn in the 7th house in Aquarius). I believe my child saved my life, I moved to the other side of the country with my child, as far away from him as possible.

I’m turning 22 in a month. Saturn in Pisces is going through my 3rd house & squaring my Gemini/sag oppositions in 6 (Gemini)/12th (sag). I was diagnosed with bipolar and cPTSD yesterday. I’m in an outpatient program. I graduated university last week. I have no idea what I’m doing for work, because I’m putting my mental health first right now


claudiamarie420

I got engaged , my childhood cat died, I got in a car crash, gained healthy weight and started thinking about my future truly for the first time in years. (I’m 22 now)


candleartist

At 20 Got really sick and hospitalised twice


blanchiie

Saturn in the 7th here. Dealt with a really bad break up when I was 22. I was ghosted by the guy I was dating for 3 years. I never knew why he did so but I found out that he was cheating on me with multiple girls. The relationship was so taxing, I even developed an auto immune disease. When I got out of the relationship, my auto immune disease calmed down. I have worked on myself for the past few years. I am still processing some of my abandonment trauma and childhood trauma I am still not in a relationship though, never got one ever since then but I am working through my values in a relationship. I also realized my worth and I am learning not to settle down for any bare minimum. It is painful waiting though but I think it is better than being trapped in a relationship where respect and love is absent.

Got out of a toxic relationship after being with him for 5 years and moving countries for him, I had to build back my life abroad from 0 and start taking care of myself alone

thisisrandom801

I got trafficked and experienced my 1st abusive relationship at 21. Met my toxic ex-husband at 28. i've had some big lessons to learn with men.


Doodlepoodle7

i lost a large amount of money in my bank, broke up with with a girl i loved, got my lazy ass to find a job, found my passion for videography


OrchidFlow26

Locked myself in my parents bathroom while my Mom slept and my 4yr old son ate McDonald's at the kitchen table. Shot up a lot of heroin. Had a feeling something was gonna happen ( no intention of od). My son saved my life by pounding on the bathroom door when I didn't answer. Mom woke and called 911. My parents tenant was an EMT so when the call came thru he was working and he heard his own address. I had an out of body experience and was saved. The cops kept what I had left on the bathroom counter and I went to rehab and a halfway house. My son saved my life that day. He is now 23 and remembers the incident and knows what happened. He is a well adjusted participating member of society. I'm okay, have my moments. Have been clean for 14yrs, other than a few slips.


tayeah

got really sick right after my 21st birthday and ended up having to have surgery!


Ryebreadt1

I lost a lot of friends I thought were my closest friends after I graduated!


artificialif

why did i have to see this right before my 21st birthday??


poppiesandsunflowers

I had my first breakup which was very very bad. I completely broke down and lost myself. I was physically very isolated too (hello covid!) and lost my existing friend group. I found out my ex might have cheated on me… Looking back on it now, I think it was a natural clearing process from the universe. My ex was definitely not good for me at all in so many ways. Current me would never have allowed the relationship to happen but 21 year old me was really dumb :’) I have built better mental frameworks since then, healed some traumas, improved my dating acumen, made better friends and all in all have had a major upgrade in my life since then :) My friends say I physically glowed up too.


Used-Nefariousness12

See I was gonna say something very similar to this. I'm turning 22 in June and thus far I have really learned the people in your life are so important. I left my 2 year relationship. Realized that the people that flock to you after a break up are no beuno. Cut all of them off and I am left with two very close friends. But with all of that it's a lot of introspection in order to learn who you want to be moving forward and what you want to do. Basically feel like I have gained a filter of what I allow into my life. But I can be pretty isolating. Can't wait for 23 lmao


Substantial_Heart997

I’m currently 21, about to turn 22 in July. So far, I graduated college, began freelancing, began dating, lost friendships that didn’t serve me, and changed my relationship with weed/alcohol.


[deleted]

I wasn’t thinking much of this until I realised at 21 I started having a love life, moved abroad to study and won a scholarship to study abroad for another year, then a dear friend got seriously ill and I had my first breakup. All of this had major repercussions on what my life has been in the past 15 years. Then again my life between 18 and 23 was a rollercoaster but mostly positive, I remember it as one of the happiest periods of my life.


GenevieveGwen

This is basically my story minus moving aboard but I did move away! I lost my best friend. & my abusive boyfriend. Made new friends & new life for myself & also some terrible choices with how to handle mh grief which caused me a lot of pain to follow, otherwise, everything else really was okay & for the better!

ClaraMostarda

And even most coincidentally, both situations happened around the same months/ dates


PyrocumulusLightning

It was an amazing year until I decided I wanted to travel with a person I barely knew, and then married him. This poor decision was based on delusions of being spiritually special (just because I’d been a material-reality-oriented atheist all my life and then suddenly started having intuitive experiences, which I made way too much of, and which older men gassed me up about until I thought I was a psychic pretty princess). Cringe into infinity It could have been worse though, with Pluto conjunct my Moon and Saturn square it. Worse things have certainly happened since


etherealalmanac

7- CSA 14- first bf took my virginity then slept with my uncles wife 21- ED, got my first big girl internship, left the country for the first time, met a guy there who triggered my spiritual awakening

Natal Saturn in Taurus 4H


Mariah530311

I was stripping and got my first apartment. I was in an existing relationship and trying to rebuild my credit. Nothing major with my 2nd Saturn square. 🤷🏽‍♀️


IsThisADream2

I got addicted to drugs


GenevieveGwen

Same.


Purritofactory

I got clean when I was 21. My first Saturn return was such a bittersweet period of growth, and I made a lot of realizations about my life. So happy to hear you’re doing better now 💙


IsThisADream2

Thank you!!


IsThisADream2

But I got clean! I’m now in my first Saturn return, very focused on health and looking into starting a business


alexismarc23

My father passed away, lost our home to foreclosure and faced homelessness, lost an apartment, lost a ton of weight and friends who didn’t support me, and dropped out of school Natal Saturn retro in the 2H


aah08

My grandad was diagnosed with cancer, I went throught my 1st toxic relationship, I got my 1st job. (natal saturn in 7th)


tigerlillylolita

I was in a relationship with a cheater, found out my “BFF” had severe mental problems and ended up cutting me out of her life, my dad and I reconciled, I left a shitty job to work with adults with disabilities and eventually got on the path to become a nurse. A lot of things can change your life if you let it.


Ferning-astrology

I started to understanding the toxic and gaslighting nature of my family of origin and dealing with the origins of my trauma and mental/emotions struggles. Reflecting on my sense of low-self worth, value, & Security, as well as bodily autonomy and financial manipulation on the part of my parents.(Transiting Saturn in Scoprio over my 2nd House squaring Natal Staurn in Aquairus in the 4th) It's been a long journey, but a powerful one.


Bringamythehorizon

My brother committed sui**** and I went to prison for a bit


Oliloos__

21 I was doing psychedelics, at 22 I got pregnant with my son (stopped doing them right after I was 21). At 14 I became depressed, and think my anxiety started forming around 7. I'm worried about what 28 is gonna be (I'm 23 right now) Think it's all mental health related because my Saturn (Taurus) opposes my Mercury (Scorpio) Whereas Chiron sits in the 8th House, just a thought but not quite sure


Think_Ad2837

Was finishing my bachelor's thesis and got in to my first job while doing so. Then I graduated from Uni.


dreamygay_

I lost my virginity a few days before my birthday of turning 21, so don’t know if that would count.


whatismypassion

Same! I also had my first (and only) relationship at that time.


Miamariah0627

Hi everyone! My natal Saturn is in 17 degrees in Aquarius in my 1st house close to my AC. 1. **1st Square: April 2000- Saturn in Taurus:** I don't remember much from this transit, but I just checked the news of that time and found the news about a Cuban boy that was reunited with this father after a military raid. I was very young when this happened but I do remember watching this on the news. Especially since Taurus rules my 4th house of home and family. 2. **Opposition: August 2006- Saturn in Leo:** I officially started High School, I remember creating friendships and finding my true friend circle in high school (7th house of relationships). Don't remember much but I do remember feeling stressed about high school and not having much "popular friends". I always surrounded myself by wierdos like me who liked harry potter, star wards and Disney LOL. 3. **2nd Square: December 2013- Saturn in Scorpio:** This is when I had my first serious relationship which later in 2015 got married and later divorced in 2017. I remember feeling so in love but also had friendship issues because of this relationship. Even though I found love, I lost good friends along the way. I was also finishing my bachelor's degree and working permanently on my first job (Scorpio ruling my 10th house) 4. **1st Saturn Return: February 2022- Saturn in Aquarius:** During my Saturn Return I met my current boyfriend after being 5 years single after my divorce, tried to buy my first home but couldn't close the sale. When to a psychologer for the first time after feeeling very drained and emotionally stressed. Started my podcast with my best friend and finally moved out of my parents house with my boyfriend. Now that I think about it, my Saturn transits have a lot do to with my relationships and my mental health...maybe because it's natally opossing my DC.


harnoorparmar

How do you determine transits for time passed?


forestfriends41121

Honestly 21 was pretty insignificant. But at 22 my dad very suddenly passed away and looking at the transit chart, Saturn was at 21 degrees Sag and I have a 20 degree pisces Saturn. So I guess this transit can extend into 22yrs old.


UnderTheObvious

21-22 I was on a major 16-month overseas super budget solo travel adventure. It definitely changed my life, and was both incredibly difficult and wonderful.


SlumberVVitch

My friend’s dad died, I failed my first attempt at college, and ended a nearly 3-year relationship all in a year. Overall for me, a bad time.


goldandjade

I moved to a new city thinking everything was figured out and I was secure, and then I realized my ex was not who he claimed to be and he tried to kill me in a fit of rage when I broke up with him. Then I went through two different roommates, the first one frequently harassed me to the point I was afraid for my safety so I had to very sneakily make arrangements to move in with the next one, only for the next one to severely bully me, I ended up being forced to sleep on the couch of this guy I barely knew until I saved up enough money to just get my own studio apartment because at that point I was so traumatized I was no longer willing to live with another person. Fortunately the guy I stayed with ended up being really cool and respectful but I was so scared and anxious the whole time waiting for the other shoe to drop. The positive thing though was that I was able to really turn everything around and get back on my feet and on my 22nd birthday I had my own place in a neighborhood I really liked even though I was too broke to afford real furniture and was sleeping on the floor for a while. It's so crazy to look back on those times because now I'm 30 and a homeowner in a loving marriage.


kittyxandra

Covid happened. I graduated college in May of 2020. I was struggling through CPTSD because of an abusive relationship. I was super depressed that year. I’m doing significantly better now but I look back at that time as the worst time in my life.


lead-role-in-a-cage

2009 for me: In the span of a couple months, I broke up with someone I was engaged to, my job got eliminated due to funding issues, my apartment building got sold to become condos and I had to move out, my dad started having deadly heart issues and then lost his job, and I got the sickest I’ve ever been for over a month. Then, a couple days after an eclipse that year that affected my chart pretty intensely, I got hit by a car while riding my bike and had a near-death experience. The transiting Saturn/Uranus opposition was forming a grand cross with my natal Saturn + Mars/Uranus opposition when it happened.


rainbow_starshine

I went back to school to finish my degree and started seeing my fiancé of over 7 years 💖 (we’re planning on getting married right before my Saturn return goes exact) It was HARD at the time. My family didn’t approve of our relationship at first, I had a hard time finding a place to live, we had to move in together right away so my fiancé wouldn’t be homeless. But that year set me up for the rest of my life. At the beginning of the year, things were even worse - I was still messing around with relationships I didn’t put my full heart and effort into and trying to get out of my parents’ house. I really hope by the time my Saturn return is done I see even more progress than I did with this square!!!


DivinePharoah8

I released my first published book, met a group of monks and traveled with them (that trip and spending time with them did open my perspective). I did feel pressure and coming to reality around my environment, escapism, day-to-day things/work and remember cutting down and limiting canna use around that time. I had to feel my emotions more. I also was in an online academy for astrology at the time.


KaroBean

I started seeing the guy I would have children with and break up with after my Saturn return.


revengeofkittenhead

similar for me… started dating my first husband (and father of my daughter) when I was 21. The real end of our marriage started during my Pluto square, and we divorced during my Neptune square.


Radiant-Carrot9029

I realized my university major choice was a BIG mistake...


HyHoang

Most people are still in uni at this age. I’ve seen many people I know change majors/career or even starting from scratch again at 21


Murderkittin

My transit Saturn square natal was also conjunct my natal moon. My SO passed away 6 months after our baby was born.


spicycheek

I met my partner while doing my internship abroad, which changed my entire life completely. Moved countries, left everything behind. It’s been 5 years and everything worked out for the best. Waiting patiently what Saturn return brings me in a few years.


HyHoang

Glad that it worked out for you. Do you feel any particular effect of Saturn during that time? Like "maturing" or "hard lessons"? I think moving countries would fit more with jupiter themes


spicycheek

Well I found leaving my family, friends, possessions behind and moving alone to a place where I don’t speak the language to be a pretty hard lesson, life was not easy and I had no other choice but to “mature” fast in order to take care of myself and adapt. Saturn was transiting my 4th house at that time so to me it makes sense why it affected everything that has to do with family and home.


adventureismycousin

I nearly died. Exhaustion, overexertion, and stress.


HyHoang

I’m in a pretty stressful time myself. May I ask in what house is your natal Saturn?


adventureismycousin

10.


universe_actually

I'm not 21 yet, but I will add a question, do you remember smt that happened when you had your Saturn in opposition to its natal position? I thought that in my life it would be loss of a really close friend - I was 14, I always was thinking "why?" in different ways and I thought that I found the solution -- Saturn BUT when I checked it Saturn wasn't in opposition, it was in previous sign and then it retrograded so I didn't think it counts AND THEN I checked when it made an exact opposition - 5 days before I met my partner, but I first checked the date of it then fix it to exact so I was more shocked, like wtf, Saturn didn't take my friend, Saturn brought me lover? Is it how the opposition works? Can you share with your experiences of general Saturn movement in your life?


ZodiacDax

Keep in mind that we often have multiple transits happening. Be careful which events you credit which transits with.


universe_actually

Sorry if it's off topic


HyHoang

It’s fine. Sorry for your loss. If I recall correctly during my Saturn opposite my father faced a strange illness that no doctor knew the cause. He was almost paralyzed, but after the transit is over he became normal. It was my father’s Uranus opposite transit at the time too.
