28 Candles

I received this beautiful angel figurine from my sis for my birthday today. Yeap...exactly 28.

Some astrologers say the ages 28-30 marks the Saturn Return where it's a time of endings and beginnings. There would be major questioning about life's direction as we come to the crossroads of life. Things take a 360 degree turn - every area of life from your career, relationships, etc. Identity Crisis. Growth. Frustration.

Why does all this sound so familiar?

I think I am already on Planet Saturn even before this birthday. The Void, the Transitional Space, the Nowhere Nothingness I have been experiencing sound sort of Saturn-y. I guess the Return landed faster when I embarked on an intensive soul-seeking journey. Uncertainty just upped its ante.

Is that why I am feeling sort of melancholy today? Saturn isn't really a destination of sunshine and daffodils.

But whatever it is, today is still a milestone! Happy Happy Birthday to me anyway! :)
