This opposition is exact tomorrow and virtually everyone in world is suffering some kind of restriction... of the Saturn in Virgo type.

For example, I have to limit exercise due my age!  Some people dieting. I can't do all the things I used to be able to do like scout new images for my blog... I don't have time.

I also have to bite my tongue all the time... primarily about Saturn (gov't) stuff.

How are you restricted... right now, today?

I'm restricted from doing most of my sports because of physical restrictions (foot issue), weather restrictions, and financial restrictions. (Still riding, tho'!)

Then my social life is restricted because it revolves around my sporting activities.  So, my weight balloons because I'm sedentary & lonely & I didn't manage to impose restrictions on my food intake in the first half of winter!  Doing better about that now, tho' and Spring is on the way (at least, in my mind!), so I've got an optimistic attitude right now.

I am dealing with weather restrictions as well, and big-time financial restrictions.  I am trying hard to work-out at home, to relieve some of the stress, and help me not blow-up.  I also have to shovel some more damn snow this morning, so that should help blow off some steam 

• Food restrictions - need to lose weight! Agggh! Of course, running a weight loss community, I feel guilty as Hell for needing to lose weight.
• Financial restrictions - lost my two biggest clients last month. That was a significant hunk of my monthly income.
• Freedom restrictions - my car blew up this December. Driving my daughter's clunker but not too much, lest it poop out, too.
• Communication restrictions - I've been working HARD to keep my mouth shut because I've been pissed off much more than normal lately.  I'm also grappling with self-presentation with my clients. How much of "me" do I let free in my professional life?
• Time restrictions - I don't have the time to do as much work as I want/feel I need to do.
• Physical restrictions - Problems with my wrists mean braces and limiting my keyboarding time. I also plan on getting back on some Thyroid meds. Which means I need to put aside some cash for a doctor's visit.

This is off the top of my head. Saturn in Virgo kinda kicks my ass, actually. 

My chronic hand/arm pain is flared up badly because of moving house and a really busy week at work.  I could be working more but have to take what time off I have and let my hands recover otherwise there will be more down time.  Every success in this regard for me is measured.

 My sex drive is at an all time low because of the chronic pain and family stress (mostly good related to the move and kids changing schools but still stress) and it's affecting my relationship with my freedom loving (and encouraging) Aquarius.  We'll ride it out and I hope I'll be back to what passes for normal for me soon.  

Not sure how I'll pay the mortgage next month. Out of money.

Tomorrow Pluto on my Asc will also be exact. Eek.

All I've noticed so far is that I really need to keep my mouth shut, and particularly that I need to avoid talking on the phone.

Wow CNN says the chairman of the Arkansas Medical Board (Saturn Virgo) got blown up by a car bomb explosion (Uranus I guess).

I'm feeling more Uranian than anything, over here.... I'm on fire professionally and personally and I'm doing things differently.  Could flame out...

 Physically, I'm restricted by the freezing effin' cold.  Brrrr. 

Felt the restrictions yesterday!!! I thought things would let up for me when mer went forward since it is my ruling planet, but the shit hit the fan.

Get a call from property managment that my water heater had to be replaced-$800.

Went to make a deposit gal said she couldn't cause my business license had expired, I was obviously unaware.

Went to renew license  found out other license was expired $315 later I had a hand cramp from writing checks. Arggggg

Oh also found out I owe more on last years taxes!!!

OH well just back the truck up to the shitpile overthere and unload some more!!! 

((Lupa))

I hate sounding like a weirdo emotional nutcase but at the moment, I feel restricted in communicating how I feel today. The people in my life are very "happy happy" and the last thing I want is to rain on their parade because I'm going through hell internally (and I mean HELL! My Saturn is returning!!!). So yes... while I smile and commend my friends for being so happy, I continue to force myself into a facade so I do not rain on their parade.

Sorry if I offended anyone.

What's kinda funny is that today I am actually feeling way better than the past week.  It actually feels like a breathe of fresh air, but the day is not anywhere close to over so i will continue to try and keep it together.

 where have I been restricted?

 Well, I've been unemployed since the end of September so that definitely is the number one thing in my life that is restricting anything and everything I do.

 There's also restriction in a relationship because of distance, which I have been ok with, but it was just my impatience getting the best of me.  I am sure I will eventually end up with this person, it's just not going to be anytime soon and I have never had to wait for anything in my life, so it makes it a little hard. 

hugs to everyone who needs them!

I'm feeling better too. I quit smoking last week. I do have loads of restrictions. My chart is a frickin' nightmare. I am practicing detachment. It's working.

lunalie-it's not offensive to be having a hard time.

hugs to everyone who's riding through rough waves!

Thanks Goddess. :)

I've got these guys Saturn and Uranus squared on my chart, so it's the same old feeling but now it's everywhere...and here is a question: if you've got a constellation in your chart it seems you're paying your taxes by small installments, every day a little bit and you get used to it. But if you don't have it in your chart, a transit or even an opposition like this one can hit pretty hard, right?Because this one seems to be a global payday...I guess Uranus in Pisces is sweeping off our traditional bookkeeping.
