Loading ...Anna asks: I recently broke up with my partner of seven years, and have spent a lot of time putting my life back together. We often spoke of having a baby, but our busy lifestyles always seemed to postpone having children. Now I seem to be thinking about having children a lot. I definitely want kids, but the question is now or later. Should I do it on my own, or wait until I am with someone? I don’t feel like I’m ready to get romantically involved with anyone just yet.
Che says: Astrologically, you’re experiencing a Saturn return right now. The Saturn return always brings with it thoughts about what has been accomplished, what needs to be accomplished, goals, responsibilities, and an increase in maturity. (For most people, anyway - for me it did nothing). Saturn is very prominent in your chart, close to your midheaven, and its influence gives you a lot of ‘weightiness’ in your life. You likely have a job or career that takes a lot of time, attention and responsibility. But a lot of positive 4th and 5th house activity show a potential for building a strong home and caring for children.
During a Saturn return, its very natural to be thinking about such issues, but at your age, there is still time for these decisions. Don’t rush into having children.
After this recent break-up, you need time for yourself (The Hermit). Though it sounds like children have been a consideration for some time, make sure that right now, having a baby isn’t just a way to fill the void left by the end of your relationship. From your reading, it looks as though there are financial conflicts to work out, perhaps left over from your broken relationship (5 of Disks in 2nd house), and that your work schedule is exceptionally busy, demanding, and swift-moving (8 of wands in 10th house). Some of your friendships have also been strained by the breakup, their loyalties conflicted. (7 of Swords in 3rd House). These are all things that will take time to iron out.
But there are lots of good things going on too. An opportunity to increase your learning (6 of Swords in the 9th house) and advance your career. The Chariot in the 8th house means your spiritual life is picking up speed, carrying you down the path you set your foot on long ago. Its unstoppable, so flow with it and see where it takes you. And your outcome card is the Sun, and all the joy, warmth and wealth that comes with it, so the future is looking very bright.
Right now the idea of a child scares you (5 of Wands in 5th house), and is causing internal conflict. Listen to that fear. You don’t necessarily need to be in a relationship to have a baby, but right now, your heart is rebelling against your thoughts. Wait until your heart and mind agree. You’ll be ready for kids sooner than you think, but I don’t think you’re ready just yet.
