Has this been true for you? I’m less than two months away from turning 41 and I still don’t identify with 40. Or with thirtysomethings.
What did turning 40 or 41 or 42 (or more) bring you? Can you pinpoint any interesting transits?
For the under 40s, what ages/transits were turning points for you?
Are you only as old as you feel?
I remember well my Pluto square Pluto because I started studying astrology then. Near the end of that transit, Saturn was in my 12th, Jupiter was in my 4th, and… the life I had then? It’s long gone, but it really wasn’t that long ago. And some things are still the same.
Now, here’s a project: pick a year of your life, say, five or six years ago, and make a list of what was important to you then, or what you did on a daily basis, or how you felt most of the time and compare it to… where you are now. If only we all made movies of our lives, like, in our brains. But I guess that’s what memory is.
Note to self: your time here is limited

Me too! *clinks my glass with yours* Cheers!
I didn’t know about astrology back then. Or anything really.
Not only was he boring, he is really mean. And a gaslighter. When I wasn’t bored I was hurt and confused and ashamed for things I was confused about.
I got better. 🙂
You got better 🙂 I’ll drink to that 🙂
Yes. I was married to a Taurus. I tried really hard to be a good wife. Nearly died of boredom.
omg LOL
I think life gets a lot more interesting after 40.
And thank you.
@Lupa, but was it ever boring for ya? With all that Gemini 😉
During my mid to late 30’s Pluto was in Sag opposing my Gemini stellium and Saturn was in Gemini. Everything since that has been a breeze by comparison.
I will be 46 in a couple of weeks and I don’t think what is important to me has changed very much. My life is very different. I got a lot of the things I wished for back then through a crazy mix of hard work and luck. In some ways, my life now is better than I imagined it could be five years ago.
I’m glad it’s better, Lupa. And will only get better. xoxo
