I have some memory of learning about the seven-year cycles of our lives, but I cannot remember the context. Honestly, I think it was from a hairdresser when discussing the changes in hair texture every seven years, but I have no facts to back that up.
Regardless, I am noticing huge changes in me and my life every seven years. Now that I’m 35, I’ve been through five cycles of seven years, and looking back on those five, they are distinctly different. This past week I had three major life events happen, one bad and two great following it. Some would say the stars are aligning, which is what reminded me of this seven-year cycle. After a quick Google search, I found a Well + Good article explaining further into the astrological shift that explains this concept.

To summarize, Uranus and Saturn are mainly associated with this seven-year cycle of change.
Uranus: "It's about really getting to the bottom of changing things around when things are too stagnant. Whenever Uranus shifts signs, it really takes things to a huge octave of change."
Saturn: “It wants us to grow and evolve into our most authentic selves and nudges us to step into that with a big dose of tough love.”
Honestly, my last seven years have been filled with a lot of pain and disappointment, and with huge growth along the way. I’ve been asking for a break and working towards being better. Today, it feels like it might all be leading to the next seven-year cycle with Uranus and Saturn aligning in a way that might push my life trajectory into more love and light.
