EYE ON THE SKY:  TOO MUCH SATURN

Saturn is weak in transit until early October at least  being very close to Ketu and one of the by-products is depression.  Whenever the moon goes through Saturn or Ketu-owned nakshatras which 6/27 times a month, it will be triggered and other planets going through Saturn or Ketu nakshatras will trigger in now.  The Sun is in Pusyha owed by Saturn and will be there until August 2nd and Venus goes into a Saturn owned nakshatra, Pushya, July 26-August 5th and Mercury goes back into that constellation, August 9-18th and even Mars goes into Ketu’s nakshatra on August 9-30th so you can see that many days, the planets are connected to Saturn or Ketu through the nakshatras and it can stir up a lot of depression and why bother energy. Moreover, Mars in Cancer does not have a lot of energy to fight and be disciplined and do things that are good to combat the energy and then we fall into bad habits.    Dismiss suicidal tendencies and talk out your problems with professionals and avoid being isolated.

The astrology is heavier now as we move into September  and we are going to have to stay disciplined with exercise, yoga and diet or we will suffer more.  Find ways to combat depression by doing more exercise, meditation, positive self-talk, yoga. The tree pose in yoga  will help bring in more solar energy into the crown chakra and even a simple touching the toes exercise will stimulate the solar plexus which may be a bit imploded by this transit so it digestion may be sluggish and stomach fire or weak agni

Avoid staying alone and get out with people which stimulates the Libra energy and that will help any isolation and depression.  There are herbal formulas for depression like St Johns Wart and numerous Bach Flower remedies and these may be needed but just getting out and being with people can help most.  Seek help from a professional if it gets severe.   Have to get out and exercise and move, take a motorcycle ride in the wind to stimulate the air element.  Avoid heavy foods like cheeses that clog the live and weigh down system and drink more raw juices and eat more salads to increase prana in the system..

Here are some reminders.  So much suffering can be short-circuited if we are disciplined:

So how do we deal with difficult transits and what can we do when karma comes back and either we or those around us are suffering?
1) This is a time to be disciplined about your meditation practice and yoga and other spiritual practices because these lighten the burden and give us more strength to deal with everything. The tendency is to skip that which is good for us when we are challenged but that’s like taking off a winter coat when its below zero.   Hanuman Chalisa (on You Tube) can give your courage and energy to increase the Mars energy and overcome Saturn. 

2) Donate time and money to help those in need. This is one way to address karma and by getting out of our own stuff, we feel better and move through our own karma.  On Saturdays donate to the poor and homeless and to orphanages and to the blind.

3) Be disciplined with diet and exercise. The tendency is to use food to cover up difficult emotions or skip exercise because we feel tired or lazy. So much illness (6th house) can be overcome if we are disciplined doing what is good for us. Avoid addictive behaviors and non-life-supporting actions especially now. The tendency is to what to escape but usually this leads to more difficult problems quickly.

4) Spend time with spiritual knowledge, attend spiritual gatherings and hang around with positive people at this time. Avoid violent TV and film and ranting TV moderators.

5) Do transformational healing work to move through these energies and uncover why these patterns are up and how you can heal them.

6) Know this will all pass and that the planets are puppeteers pulling their strings and if we understand what is happening, we do not have to buy into it and beat ourselves up.  It seems more difficult with Saturn retrograde until Sept. 18th as Saturn’s energy is stronger and finally Saturn and Ketu separate enough by 3 degrees or more as we move into the 2nd week of October and so things will lighten up.
