Loss of pet

Stevyamda

This maybe a not so conventional topic to discuss but yesterday I made the extremely difficult decision to end the suffering of one of my longtime pets. She was a 12 yr old beagle suffering from congestive heart failure. It was an extremely difficult decision for me and I’m obviously grieving from the loss. She had been sick for over a yr and all my energy and time was devoted to her care when I wasn’t working. It’s going to be hard to adjust to life without her. I do have another dog, he’s 13 and thankfully still in perfect health, that she grew up with. I’m wondering if a natal chart can show the loss of a pet? Was there anyway to have known ahead of time when it was going to happen? I think I read somewhere Saturn transits Can bring up issues with the heart which is pretty coincidental considering I found out I have paroxysmal afib and a PFO ( patent foramen ovale) at the end of 2022 and my baby developed CHF around the same time.

I see it's been a while since this was posted, but I just wanted to ask—have you looked at any transits or progressions that might explain the timing you were wondering about? Sometimes outer planet aspects can show long-term shifts that don’t show clearly in the natal chart alone. I'd be curious how things unfolded for you since then.

I’m so sorry for your loss. It’s never easy making that decision, and the grief can be overwhelming. When I lost my own pet not too long ago, I found a lot of comfort in focusing on the little things that brought me joy, like my isopods. I had panda king isopods from https://postpods.co.uk/collections/isopods-for-sale/products/panda-king, and caring for them helped me find peace during such a tough time.
