Saturn effect

paradoxx

Venus oppose Saturn

Venus is a reflection of how we appreciate things, Saturn is most definetly long-term cause and effect. This opposition, happening Sunday and monday, 21 and 22nd of Jan 2007, lets us appreciate how far things have come, and how we can keep them going. New endevours have on the other hand, been viewed as cost-detrimental. New lifestyle presentations appear as something grand, but are really a rehash of something else that had already appeared before. the older lifestyle on the other hand has reppeared and has been re-evalutated, and redefined as more valuable in the end, a venus in Aquarius effect that emphasises the traditional, and Saturn in leo effect that changes the direction of leadership.

Tarot wise, Venus is teh empress and Saturn is the world, when impacting eachother, we are stuck between a rock and hardplace, the rock is probably a diamond and the hardplace is society. A movie about diamond mining in the 3rd world (similar to Syriana in theme), starring hollywood crown jewell Leonardo DiCaprio, is coming out here soon.

Deactivating is Saturn trine to Mars, this was complimentry to mars but now Mars is pushing himself into aspectless territory, and in need of constant direction. This is not the desirable siutation for some, others it is ideal to help with authority and enhance the quality of performance. Saturn is presuring leadership right now, and keeping with the theme of things, leadership must allow the pressure to be distributed fairly, but also with time, calmness will win the day, tensness will not.

Saturn is square to Vesta, so our commitment to the status quo will be jostled just in time for vesta to shift signs, this time into sagittarius. We are seeing the change in status quo all around us, and at the same time, the status quo has taken on new values and realities that were not always seen, and perhaps only a whisper, now up front and personal and playing on the speakers.

Strange times become stranger before January ends.

Feb 10

Sun and Saturn oppose early in the morning, early early in teh monring, or late at night depending on where you are. This may make us wakeful, alert, and in general, kind of edgy towards things. This plus a quick square to the moon and Saturns energy is feeling a little unwound.

Wild fluctuations of desire will plauge us through the night, and probably in dream form assuming we cna get to sleep to dream to begin with. The people we deal with may start to get on our nerves in certain ways, and will probably show up again in the afternoon when certain people have thier own reasons to complain.

Mars and Venus are also moving into inconjuncts to Saturn, this of course creates that yod effect with Saturn as the apex and kickoff and Mars and Venus as the 'goalposts.' Relationships across the board will feel Saturn make the goal, or attempt anyway, at placing restriction between earths flanking planets. This might result in some distortion and between mars and venus, but not much else should come from it. Mercury going retrograde on teh 15th could create some communication issues that are unwelcome.

Saturn and Neptune are now in opposition, these two outer planets shape a whole month of births, While it will take time to see what the coming events produce and how it will affect this coming generation, the immediete feelings we have now will probably be varied.

Restriction placed from the past will halt some of the current endevours dead in their tracks, this will be reviewed later and probably deemed as a half-thought out project that needs to be restored to its original format.

Saturn and Jupiter are trining eachother right now, the bottom denominator is the topic at hand, but also teh reality of restrictions and expectations are at hand. Trined to both of these lightweight giants is nuclearpowerhouse sun, Thsi grand trine kicks off a lot of energy and forces everything to move ahead at a financially stable, but oddly restricted pace of movement, everyone beneifts but many aspects are held in place as the general energy acts as a beacon to many but upholds very little grace in the end, the center of activity though is association and that comes with mercury already in pisces following the waterways in both directions nets a tidy sum but again the beacon of light and reminder is needed.

see http://www.tarotforum.net/showthread.php?t=79041]Jupiter and Saturn for the Jupiter/Saturn retrograde/direct trine.

Saturns restoration to direct motion is hardly a feeling at this time, but what is happening behind the scenes is that the proximity to Virgo is starting to act up , especially since Saturn is picking up on his next retrograde to direct stationary point that will occur next year, may 2nd, 2008.

1 to 2 virgo, Saturn's energy is one that is especially strong so planetary aspects to these degrees will have to be watched out for,save money and wealth, stock up, prepare for economic hardship, and the labor sector could suffer. Saturn square to the sun is a wake up call though, tight restrictions on behaviour and teh release of belief restrictions are creating waves throughout the area. New age ideas are starting to take root in the harshest of soil and bloom like flowers on a cactus. Stranger activiites are taking place under the microscope though, and what you thought was acceptable to the world has been reduced to ashes, this is the true test of Saturn, to see what you are and what you have been in regards to what should be done and what should be respected.

Saturn is hardly a laser beam in his effects, so expect broad ranged activities to be addressed with bluntness and without tact. inconjunct to uranus there is friction between individual and independant actions and the restrictions imposed by the group, as well as the opposite-actions of the group restricted by the reality of the individual. debate and attitude will be brought up, and being dumb wont get you anywhere easy.

July 27, Venus will go retrograde at 2 Virgo, this is the degree that Saturn goes retrograde to direct next year. it is around the 27th that mars and Saturn will square to one another, which is like pushing up against a brick wall, where the mortar has yet to set, you're going to make a dent, but you might get dirty in the process.

Venus backing up into this mess will cause even more friction, the friction may have to do with fiction, and the fiction may not be the traditionally revered, but it is coming into its own, and with influence from afar, it will prosper and continue with ferocity, with any attempt to back away from it being revealed for its true intentions, benign and malicious at the same time.

Big changes loom ahead with Saturn entering Virgo in September. From all I've been reading we are on the threshold of major changes Astrologically....this seems to be the kick off.
