Saturn Turns Retrograde
Every step is taken in faith & I know today as Saturn turns retrograde many of us would be questioning ours. But it’s purpose is to push us to go in harder. It’s not about dissuading us to back off. But rather in this moment of self judgement we are pushed to commit versus waiver. Sometimes commitments and convictions come through pain — real economic or physical pains.
As Saturn going retrograde at 25º15’ Aquarius squares Mercury in Taurus going direct at 26º05’ its like the individual care clashes with the welfare of the many. Like our individual value and self worth is minimised by a law, an authority, a rule, a blockage, a lock we seem to have no key of. Its the definition of our mind hitting a wall. I won’t sugar coat it cause I know many of us are feeling it — its depressing. Business, economy, communication, our minds — all represented by Mercury feel it. Each one feels lonely in their individual concern yet each one of us has it. Feeling lonely in a collective problem is another kind of lonely.
In this moment, I am here to remind you that imperfections in your individual paths are right now inflated. It’s such a time when you are seeing the half empty more than the half full. Like a strict parent — it shows us the worst possible outcome and replays it in loop in our mind as it scares us to into doing something about before its late. Your fears expanded are your natural instincts keeping you safe and in this world of this world.
Don’t diminish your vision or cower cause its not perfect as you imagined yet. Saturn retrograde is the period when structurally we take out those imperfections one by one — from now to 22 Oct. Diligently. But yes it first scares us shit into seeing those imperfections — and thats what the current moment is.
(P.S. I am in Asia. Its way past my bed time. I couldn’t sleep. I had to write this cause I guess someone needs to read it. We all have to do what we have to do as we belong to the collective despite our individual cares & comfort. Saturn in Aquarius always brings collective together by compressing the air — whether its through launch of World Wide Web in last transit or the current events we are all going through together. Its stitching us tighter together yet taking our breath away. No I didn’t watch Top Gun, but heard its good. My point is if you are fighting a just collective cause — know its the time for it and you have a role to play in it — but yes with Taurus being squared right now — you would feel that your participation in a cause is compromising your individual well being. May be its pushing you to decide whether you want to have a life or a legacy. I cant decide for you, I can’t even decide for me but yes I can tell you with Saturn its sometimes not even a choice — its part of our duties of this life — people call it karma — Capricorns call it just dharma or work or life.)
Much Love,
