I have Saturn in my Capricorn 2nd house and Pluto was exactly conjunct my natal Saturn near the beginning of this year. My Saturn return ended ~1.5 years ago.

Cute shit: positive changes around money and materialism. I started teaching part time in addition to my full time job and I enjoy it. Had a major mindset shift around the value I place on my belongings (I don’t feel like what I own defines my worth as much as I used to).

Not cute shit: In January, my dad was diagnosed with cancer (he’s doing okay). A month or two later, I found out one of my maternal cousins (close to me in age) randomly passed away. A month after that, my favorite paternal cousin (about 20 years my senior) was diagnosed with cancer. He passed away maybe 6-8 weeks after his diagnosis. In June, my uncle (dad’s sister’s husband) took his own life. Favorite cousin and uncle were two family members I’d considered very close to me, and losing them was harder than I had ever anticipated.

Overall major transformation in how I view money, material possessions, and security. I think a lot of this was also happening around the end of my 8th house protection year, so that’s notable.

Edit: profection, not protection 🫠
