@nkan This made me think of my own Saturn maturation. A similar theme - I´ve gott 7H on my Mars card and 7D on my Mercury card. At 35 I decided to give up my old life in Sweden and move to South America.
I had 7D as the EC three or four years in.a raw a couple of years after that. Which made me curious whether something similar happens in your spread, and I guess the answer is kind of yes. The 35th yearspread has AS as it´s EC, and the theme card is KD I believe. After that you have 9D on the Ecliptic two years in a raw. Also the red sevens show up in a couple of positions.

@staffan yeah 35 was a challenging year for me in many respects. The most painful aspect was suddenly losing a beloved pet. I had Ace of Spades on the EC for the year, 5 of Spades as the "year card" and 7 of Hearts on my Sun card, with my Ascendant sitting there. Ernst does say that Mars Saturn conjunction folks do have a hard time around Mars and Saturn maturations. I also fell into depression around my career and life path and would be completely unable to work, so eventually I left that line of work and closed my business. The most populated card was the 8 of Clubs - Mars Card - with Sun, Mercury, Jupiter, Ketu and 10th cusp falling in it.
36 was much easier - though I did relocate to another country, it was a smooth and happy process. All my planets were in 6 of Hearts (Mars card), 4 of Hearts (Jupiter card) and Jack of Hearts (Venus card). It was an emotionally happy, full of love and safety and taking things slow (recovering - 4 of Spades year card) year. 7 of Diamonds on the Mercury card but no planets there.
Years 36 and 37 do have 9 of Diamonds in the Ecliptic card, yes. 37 is more dynamic so far. It's a 3 of Spades year with 7 of Diamonds on my Mars card holding the Sun, Mercury and 10th cusp. And Jack of Spades as my Moon card hold Mars. My life path since I turned 36 has been all about Astrology, on the career front.
