SATURN RETROGRADES IN SAGITTARIUS Saturn in Sagittarius will be retrograding on this Friday, March 2
SATURN RETROGRADES IN SAGITTARIUS Saturn in Sagittarius will be retrograding on this Friday, March 25, 2016. So what does that mean for you? It means reorganizing and experiencing that progression does not always mean rock steady forward movement. It is an invitation to reorganize those areas of your life Saturn threads. It means more focused awareness, changing life structures and it means balancing the energy to achieve and the energy just to be, without needing to achieve. The Mountain goat (Capricorn) can give a perfect analysis. Have you ever climbed a mountain before? Astrologer colleague Elsa Elsa inspired a great comparison between this Saturn retrograde and climbing a mountain. You are facing a mountain you must climb. First you look at it, scan it then you start your climb right? Making sure you have the tools and necessities in your backpack. What tools do you need for this trek and what needs to be packed? Got them? It may be water or food or a blanket necessary for surviving the climb and or for when you reach the top. You may come to a point where you realize you forgot something. If it is essential then you back track and go back to get it. But that’s not all that bad Is it? You are retrieving the necessities. Or you reach a blocked path on mountain and must blaze a different trail. No problem. Finding a safer path is better than falling down. In these cases you are Progressing Even As You Retrack. I have not climbed a huge mountain before. Only figurative ones spread throughout my life. Those I know quite well. But just the other day my son and I went hiking amongst some steep hills. We lost our way back and had to carve out our own trail to get back to the top. We ended up climbing a rather steep hill with dry leaves on the surface. Now you know dry leaves are slippery so it’s a tricky one. I have his backpack on my back and I am glad I do because it’s grounding me and keeping me in my body. He goes ahead and reaches for my hand while I grab on to a thin tree that is young and not so strong. It gets caught in my scarf I have on my head. Now I am stuck trying to release myself in the midst of climbing. But my body gives no warning signals so I am fine. After a brief struggle, I put another foot ahead of the other and grab on to another tree bark that is stronger and slightly bigger. We can do this! We can do this! I dare not look behind. I keep pulling myself up digging my feet through the dried leaves. It’s exhilarating and a thrill. I meet my strength. I touch the power of my Mars that took me there. A long exhale leaves my body as we reach the top. The Saturn in Sagittarius retrograde will slow progress down even more, Makimg us more aware of our humanly limitations and responsibilities. Saturn has been squaring my Uranus, my Pluto and my Chiron this year and my move and travels have been seriously delayed. I can wallow deeper into that sorrow or I can accept it as more time to get my whole life (re)designed and organized. I’ve been working on two publications. One is a book and the other is my YOLA Whole Life Planner & Organizer.The process began rather swiftly but soon slowed down by nature’s order. I am a Saturn girl. For the most part, I am seasoned when it comes to patience. I can handle this. The Whole Life Planner & Organizer is my way of reorganizing my life and deepening my Moon connection and developing a relationship with the planets, a way to keep track of my daily activities, document my life and plan according to the nature’s cycles. It is a powerfully daily grounding and daily self care experience. As I work on myself, I get more encouraged and excited about sharing this creative tool with others. I am working with someone in formatting and laying out my book. This is my third return and now he won’t be available to submit my work for another 2 to 3 days. He asked for an extension. I don’t freak out because it feels like the natural order of things. I am not regressing it’s a pause in progression and I know that. Saturn in Sagittarius will deeply touch those of us with Uranus and Pluto in Virgo. But keep in mind everyone will be touched, This has been the square dance for me adding Chiron to the mix. Saturn is moving towards my South Node, Mercury and Venus in my 3rd house. So I am knee deep in this Saturn slow down game. Above all I trust that Saturn is working on my behalf. I am learning to listen to his wisdom and his counsel and utilize the lessons as I move forward. Most people focus on gloom and the hardships that Saturn can bring if the work isn’t done. I like to focus on the qualities of crystallization, order, and planning. Oh my! The word PLANNING! Something I have struggled with for so long which is why I have not offered any classes or workshops and events for years. When you have a story like mine and have lived the kind of life that I have - one that flows with the go and goes with the flow; when you are ending an entire old life that turned out in ways you did not all plan, like mine, it’s pretty damn scary standing at the doorway of a new one. How do I make plans when I have zit… nada…. nothing…while I stand at ground zero. I believe I really need this Saturn (restructure, organize) in Sagittarius (faith, higher mind, fortune) retrograde period to relearn how to and actualize the PLAN of my WHOLE LIFE while integratimg all his lessons.
