Astro Gradual, unlocking your Cosmic heartbeat

Saturn opposition Ascendant

Saturn opposition Ascendant is also called Saturn conjunct Descendant or Saturn Setting. It mainly affects your one-to-one relationships. It makes you a very loyal friend and lover and takes your close relationships seriously. But your partners, both personal and professional, can cause some difficulties in your life. Your friends and partners may be too controlling or critical of you. In this case, it is possible that you subconsciously attract a strict father figure. You may fear being responsible for your affairs or not think you are good enough to take control of your own life. Alternatively, you may be the responsible one in the relationship and attract younger or more immature friends and lovers. You may subconsciously feel you have a duty of care and have to keep them safe and out of trouble. Some astrologers say you should wait until you are about 30 until your first Saturn return before you marry. This is questionable and probably based on personal value systems tainted by religion. You learn so much about life and about yourself through close one-to-one relationships. You should not fear forming close relationships or getting married. Saturn already has a delaying and isolating influence. You may already have a fear of marriage if your parents separated. It is possible, especially if Saturn is retrograde, that you have past life memories of loneliness or the loss of a partner. Under Saturn opposition Ascendant, you may have a tendency to be critical of other people but must learn to use this to your advantage. Nagging or teasing others must be avoided. Instead, you should quietly listen and learn about human nature and relationship dynamics. In this way, you will be more discerning and make good relationship choices. With age comes self-assurance and self-confidence. You will come to realize that you are deserving of a happy marriage and enduring love, more deserving than most.

Saturn opposition Ascendant

In a world of defending champions, you might always feel like the challenger. At your best, this constant positioning (or view of it) forges your will, patience, and determination into a stainless-steel quality and nature. You're tough,and maybe more than a bit cranky at times. Your toughness also makes you reliable. And others can trust you with a great deal, especially if you allow yourself to be governed by fair-minded principles and ideals. Yet, at your worst, you allow life's school of hard knocks to give you a degree in cynicism with honourable mentions in bitterness. Then you'll discover there are fewer and fewer people willing to give you a shot at more as you mature. The world doesn't owe you, but you do, indeed, owe the world as much as you have to offer. The more you offer what's of lasting value, the longer more of you will exist in the world.

The opposition between your Ascendant and Saturn affects the way you approach relationships and other people in general. There may be a deep sense of insecurity about the way other people perceive you, so you prefer to let other people come to you rather than going to them, as you can general fear rejection or other people’s reactions. This affects the way people perceive you and your personality, which can inhibit your relationships. You tend to be quite reserved and cautious in your approach with others and tend to not show your emotions unless you are very close. This causes you to not develop your intimate relationships until later on in your life, most likely after your Saturn Return. You may feel like you need others to approve the way you do things or feel like the way other people do things is better or more important. This is the area of life where you are required to develop self-mastery and maturity but the thought of opening up and being vulnerable to someone else can be a frightening prospect. You may be drawn to those who display typical Saturnian traits such as business or someone who is solid and dependable; It can be helpful to look back at your own parent's relationship to see how this may have impacted upon you. Because you may have taken fewer partners or fewer opportunities for love to blossom, but when the connection is there, you pay it the serious attention it deserves. You are more realistic, so you are less inclined to be swept away by big promises and fairy tale romances but as a result, your partner has the benefit of the real you. This placement can generate a fear that you just aren't lovable enough or good enough to be with someone else resulting in loneliness and isolation. Issues around partners and even open enemies may test your limits.

Saturn opposition Ascendant makes you a loyal person

The Saturn opposition Ascendant aspect is also called Saturn conjunct Descendant or Saturn setting. This aspect generally affects your relationships, but you will see these qualities show up most in your one-on-one friendships and romantic partnerships. Usually, the Saturn opposition Ascendant aspect indicates that you didn’t receive enough praise or encouragement as a child. Now, you may be less-than-assertive and might doubt yourself. Any challenge can seem too intimidating or hard. You may attract strict father figures as romantic partners, regardless of the gender roles. In fact, your relationships probably have some kind of parental role and may be unbalanced. This is because you don’t feel that you have the capability to be responsible for your own life, so you attract people who will take over the role of controlling you and your life. However, this doesn’t work in the long run. Alternatively, you might be the “responsible,” strict partner in relationships. In this scenario, you attract lovers who are more immature or even physically young. You feel responsible for them and they allow you to take over these duties. Sometimes, Saturn opposition Ascendant can mean that you’re scared of relationships in general because you don’t want to be vulnerable. You may have experienced negative events in past relationships, either with ex-partners or even with your parents. Saturn opposition Ascendant usually indicates that relationships are a core part of your shadow-work. You will discover who you are underneath by working through your issues in partnerships and friendships. This aspect will force you into difficult relationships with people who teach you these lessons. The key to healing Saturn opposition Ascendant is to learn how to accept others for who they are while also accepting your shadow self and setting clear boundaries. Ultimately, you need to own all parts of yourself. With Saturn opposition Ascendant, you probably attract people who reflect your shadow self. In fact, your partners have the very negative qualities that you suppress within yourself. When you learn to own and express these hidden qualities, you will start to attract relationships where you can be yourself authentically with partners who want the same type of relationship that you do. Remember that it’s OK with Saturn opposition Ascendant to have difficult relationships. After all, you only grow with this placement through relationships. Your partnerships may feel really difficult, but remember that you’re always learning lessons and getting close to fulfilment when you simply keep trying.
