Anthony McPartlin returns to TV

Like many people, around the age of 42, Neptune planet of illusion squared its natal position in Ant’s chart, often coinciding with a mid-life crisis. With Neptune being a slow moving planet, this is a subtle phase that can last for some time when from the outside it might seem as if nothing unusual is going on while on the inside, Ant will have been questioning life and happiness, his beliefs and responsibilities. This along with Saturn opposing Mars in his chart will have made it so tempting for him to abandon all commitments in favour of freedom and with Jupiter also in the picture, for having some fun. Jupiter, in tense aspect, exaggerates doubts, frustrations, unhappiness and negative thought patterns. All of this along with the pressure he will have felt under at the time, will have made him more susceptible to painkiller and alcohol addiction.

Saturn will have encouraged him to address these issues but Neptune was still throwing a veil over the problem keeping Ant in the foggy realms of depression, confusion and delusion.

In 2018 Jupiter crossing Ant’s Sun in Scorpio began to encourage him to take a more positive engagement with life and life will have offered him new and more exciting possibilities helping to lift him from a negative cycle. At the same time, a Saturn/Venus link will have brought a sense of separation from the past and more specifically from what were once close and loving relationships. This resulted in challenges within his close personal and professional relationships. Looking ahead and there is greater potential for growth, happiness and success as Jupiter trines its natal position highlighting January and the summer months as bringing positive opportunity to move past restrictive factors. Life once again becomes fun, exciting and a big adventure.

Saturn’s link with Mercury between March and June will see Ant making some sensible choices and developing plans and strategies to achieve new goals but it’s important for him to take it slowly as Saturn also makes a tense link with Jupiter towards the back end of the year making for a time to back off if things start moving too quickly, to review and re-evaluate and to take a realistic assessment of anything that has grown out of control. This is when secret fears of how others might judge him will rise to the surface and there’ll be a need to manage his inner critic and work on self-acceptance and self-forgiveness.
