Part of Necessity Opposition Saturn
The Part of Necessity opposite Saturn brings your constraints and obligations up against authorities, elders, or hard circumstance, so the things you must endure often arrive through other people's power or refusal. The tension is between your freedom and the wall that limits it. Meet the imposed limit without bitterness and find the room that remains.
