MORE ON SATURN STATIONARY/RETROGRADE APRIL 6TH: SLOWING DOWN AND TRUSTING

EYE ON THE SKY: SATURN STATIONARY REVIST

Its Tuesday and getting closer to the Saturn station on April 6th and Saturn is slowing down to a crawl like a steamship getting ready to turn around in the vast ocean as it gets ready to go retrograde until August 25th.  It will stay in the 3-4 degree area of Sagittarius for a long time as it takes a long time for  slow down and reverse course and usually I find when Saturn goes retrograde and after a bit intense. The news is suddenly worried about North Korea and its nukes.   There is more anxiety in the air about everything in your life and the other retrograde planets are also slowing things down.  If you are are ruled by Saturn such as Capricorn or Aquarius rising or have Saturn Atmakaraka (planet with the highest degrees) or have your asendent in Mula Nakshatra (Sag 0-13.20), you may be feeling the energy most.  For some of you ruled by Saturn, you may feel more grounded and solid and powerful with the Saturn station.   On top of it, the  moist and wet spring weather is increasing lethargy also and if you know Ayurveda, you have to pacify the Kalpha element and avoid cheese and heavy foods as you are sluggish enough and we should write more about this.

I am finding myself cleaning closets, wanting to tear apart my office and refile everything and feeling very unsettled with a deep sense of unconscious fear that is churning.    Use this energy to make the changes you need to make to clean those old piles up and to throw out the old and prepare for a new life by hearing the call of Saturn.   If you are Capricorn rising or Aquarius Rising of this energy will seem most intense. Also if you are running a Saturn period on the 1st or 2nd levels.  Slow down and stay calm.

Go deep into the fear and recognize the illusion of it. You are safe and secure and no one or nothing can harm you. 99% of that which we fear never happens.  Remember this. You are safe and protected.

Stay on top of this wild energy the next 3 weeks by doing our yoga and meditation and drinking calming herbal teas.  Stay calm and centered.   Become Capricorn the mountain, solid, unshakable and soar high like the eagle into great freedom.  The world around you may seem to be moving too quickly  and giving you a sense of  wild emotional churning  that will explode but trust that God has a plan. Saturn governs work for everyone and it slowing down and going retrograde may create rethinking of a situation or  reworking or redoing but if you are not clear about what is happening, then it causes frustration and irritation from the delays. Get ahead of your life by planning now to get things done before Saturn slows things down.

Saturn being powerful will increase criticism and being picky so avoid being a perfectionist or you will drive yourself and others crazy.   Realize the imperfection of the changing world and accept the world and its flaws.
