AmandaA, that sounds pretty cool! It lessens my fear a little and replaces it with some excitement.
@turtle I don't know what age you are - I guess my age had something to do with it (22 years) - I couldn't wait for adventure and that's what I got. I also have the moon in opposition to my sun, so of course I had my share of heartbreak (a beautiful love affair that did not work out). But I wish you a fabulous adventure!
Changed my entire life. But I got the double whammy. My Sun and Moon are in opposition, so it hit both.
Moved across the country, total upheaval. Took my entire identity. All of the things that I was and all of the things that I did... gone. Moved to a place where I knew and still know ... no one really.
Gone .... Family, friends, job, house, belongings. All of it. Gone. Most of my chart is fixed so to say the change was hard ... is an understatement. If you'd told me a few years prior this would happen I never would have believed it.
I didn't even know how to get to the grocery store without GPS, at my age. And who would have thought I could or would take on this adventure at my age when most people are headed home to be as close to family as possible. Not me. If something happens, I have to figure it out. Husband and I have no one but each other.
If I could do this, anyone can. It's definitely a time for adventure and upheaval but probably in a good way.
When it crossed my Sun/Moon conjunction, I too moved across the country. Not way across the country, but far enough -700+ miles from home. I was basically thrilled about it at the time. I wanted a change more than anything. But after a while realized the grass is not necessarily greener on the other side so to speak. Soon after I moved I got the culture shock of my life. I became home sick and depressed.
It was 1996 (I had to do some searching). My sun is at the end of my 5H (equal house).
Now I’m trying to piece together my life at the time and see what sticks out.
I was living outside Cleveland in a tiny studio near my job, a job I loved, dating a guy who liked the gym and seemed to bring out more of an interest in that in me. I got my two kittens then (totally not allowed in my apartment). I’m trying to remember if that was the year I had broken up with another guy I had dated for a total of four months where two months in I saw red flags and spent the other two trying to get away from him (I had lent him money. I had to sue to get it back. A mistake I never made again) He scared the shit out of me (creepy, jealous, stalker type).
But it was a fun time overall.
