John's annoying me.

Saturn arrives in Aquarius, the sign of humanity, community, science, and technology. Over the next two years, until March 2023, we’re building new networks. We’re innovating with science and technology. We’re understanding the importance of equity.

Aquarius or Aquarius Rising — The self, growing up, growing older, new beginnings. After two years of retreat behind the scenes to reflect, rest, and let go of the past, Saturn’s arrival in your sign marks a new chapter. (In fact, it’s a new 29 year chapter. Let that sink in.) As a result, the next couple of years, until 2023, may be marked by personal milestones. In short, Saturn is asking you to grow up, to step into a position of authority in your life, to be the person people look to for answers. Note that Saturn may speak to health concerns or weakened vitality. It’s important to take care of your body at this time through fitness and diet. It’s not uncommon for there to be weight loss when Saturn is in your sign.

Libra or Libra Rising — Identity, persona, creativity, talent, children. Do you take yourself seriously? Do you make time for your talents and creativity? Over the next few years, until 2023, you’re prioritizing yourself. You’re also getting clearer about who you are and what makes you unique. You may also be starting a creative project or even starting a family. Regardless, it’s a time for you to have a stronger sense of who you are and, if you’ve historically, hid yourself, it’s time to step into the spotlight.

 Saturn is at the end of Capricorn. We close out a chapter that began at the start of 2018. It's been an uphill struggle, only because Saturn set a high bar. We also had to clear things out in order to build something new. Today we reflect on our work of mastery.

High five, everyone. We made it. The real countdown clock isn't for the end of 2020, but rather Saturn's time in Capricorn. Normally this would have been a three year journey of personal excellency and mastery, getting us back in alignment with our spiritual and material goal posts. But we had Pluto in Capricorn joined later by Jupiter in December 2019. Pluto showed us our spiritual blocks, the stuff we didn't want to look at. It forced us to clear space. Jupiter just supersized it.

Don't let this day pass you by if you can. Connect the dots. Look for the common thread, the common story that not only started in January 2018, but also started in 2008. What have you achieved? What have you learned? What have you built? For a refresher, read Saturn in Capricorn: Sign by Sign in the link below and note the work you did on that part of your life.

Saturn won't return to Capricorn for another 30 years.

Tomorrow Saturn arrives in Aquarius where will remain until March 2023. A new part of our life now demands our attention as well as a higher state of excellence. But this is not a completely new story. We got a preview of Saturn in Aquarius from March 21 until July 1, 2020. Learn more about Saturn in Aquarius: Building Humanity in the link below.

The last three years:

Libra or Libra Rising — Home, family, foundation, emotional connections. You’re in a new season, a new phase of life, one that is all about building a foundation for yourself. You can’t get more fundamental than home and family, the support for which everything rests on. Over the coming three years you may make a major move, plant down roots, build a home, or settle down. Capricorn is the sign that represents your roots, your ancestry, but Capricorn can feel like a hard sign, one marked by the duties and expectations of family. Make sure you are tending to what nourishes you on a deep level and allows the totality of your life to flourish.

Aquarius or Aquarius Rising — Retreat, rest, recuperation, surrender, endings. You’re at the end of a cycle, a long journey that has arced across your life. As a result you may be feeling call to pull back, to reflect, to figure out what it all means after all these years. Over the next three years your spiritual life will be a priority and you will be building a framework for how you connect to the All, the Divine, the Universal. This may bring an existential crisis, a feeling that the things that were locked down and well defined in your life are suddenly not. Saturn, your ruling planet, is pushing you to find the things in the invisible worlds, the quiet space within yourself. Just let it all go, let the cosmic tide take you where you need to go.

Aquarius and Aquarius Rising — Income, value, stability, material life. Your connection to what you own, how you make money is transforming. You need to bring more spirituality into your material life. You need to let go of and heal what you’ve been holding onto. What you think you need or what you think you value is an illusion. The seduction of the material world. Earning or using money for charitable or altruistic purposes.

December

The other big news this month is Saturn and Jupiter’s arrival in Aquarius on December 17 and 19 respectively, followed by a historic alignment on December 21. (In astrology this is called a Great Conjunction and only happens every 20 years.) It’s a time of new beginnings on a world level as well as a collective shift in focus.

A lot’s being made by other astrologers about this conjunction. True, apart from a conjunction in Libra in 1980, this conjunction in Aquarius marks a shift towards element Air — communication, connection, ideas, innovation, technology — and all the subsequent conjunctions will be in Air signs for the next two hundred years. It’s possible that we’re on the brink of a greater societal shift, one that will likely coincide with major technological breakthroughs. (We all live on Zoom right now, right?)

But we have to consider that every sign has two sides and while Aquarius will help us find our humanity and, hopefully, build new structures that are based on equity and fairness, Aquarius will also show us our inhumanity and our inequity … two halves of a whole. Then again it’s Sagittarius Season. One has to remain optimistic.

As previously mentioned, Saturn and Jupiter switch signs this month, and Saturn’s final two weeks in Capricorn is very much a consolidation of the lessons we’ve learned — lessons around accountability, hard work, structures, power, and boundaries. Did we step up to Saturn’s high bar over the past three years? Have we built something that is solid and sustainable?

When Saturn arrives in Aquarius, it’s not only a return to events from March through the end of June 2020, but a return to events from 1991 to 1994, the last time Saturn was in Aquarius. And for all of us, there’s a certain part of our life that will now need more serious attention. 

Saturn demands equity and balance. So if there’s a certain part of our lives that are out of balance and Saturn just so happens to be turning its attention to it, the next few years will be a major push to get things in order. For others, it may be a time of milestones and achievements and new ambitions. If Saturn in Capricorn was about building something physical, then Saturn in Aquarius will be about building new systems, networks, and technologies.

 "December 10 — You can't have an eclipse without the lunar nodes. And right now the lunar nodes are in the signs of Gemini and Sagittarius. Add a new or a full moon to the lunar nodes and, voila, you have an eclipse.

Here we are, just a few days from a Sagittarius New Moon that's also a solar eclipse. If new moons are new beginnings, then solar eclipses open powerful six month chapters, ones where our lives can go off in a new direction or change stories.

So we're in a liminal space at the moment. Things are moving, but not quite in focus. New characters are waiting in the wings. Others are preparing to leave. Since Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, we're questioning meaning, faith, truth. We're looking out to the world, but cannot travel. We're reexamining what we believe in. We're setting off on a new adventure.

The solar eclipse is on December 14 at 23 degrees Sagittarius."

The toll of life.

 

Lapsing through the layers, the up-filters and throw backs of mind. Remembering the un-memory, the loops and crashes of recent life.  A brain full of forgets.  Uplift  and spoken loud mantras ushering the new urge to forgive. But  deep dark circles confirm the trouble in my life.  Me interred inside a bunker without a view to the outside. I  I long for a desk and a half hidden urge to write. The solstice coming,  gently slipping in its entry with little waves of optomistic vibes  MB.
