Hmm. I lost a lot of things in oh eight too, but I am sort of looking at it as "Clean Slate". Of course I was stricken with anxiety all winter, and am just now in recovery I think. I feel like I'm caught up in a zen moment now, the calm after the storm.

I've been experiencing it as lots of blessings that require a lot of hard work. My sun is in the 5th and I'm a new mama learning just how much time the care of an infant takes and feeling restricted in so many ways by having a new baby while also being head over heels in love with him. Also got married in the last year, which is wonderful and challenging - figuring out how to budget "our" money rather than just spending or saving "my" money how I please, figuring out how to compromise, figuring out how to keep our relating strong with money and baby stress. Also trying to build my business the way I want it to be, which is hard work and requires me to get real about how much time and energy I have. Everything seems to go so slow! And take 10 times more effort to make happen!

Also experiencing and being open to the love and gifts that flow in from my community of friends. Uranus in Pisces had been opposing Saturn in Virgo for much of the time Saturn has been in Virgo, which has meant lots of sudden and unexpected shifts, at least for me! The good, and hard part, has been letting go of fear and anxiety and learning to trust the universe and my community to support me when I'm in need. That might be because Uranus is passing through my 11th house.

Also experienced loss of friends and loss of work. Probably for the better.
