Saturn retrograde until 24/8/17 It is often said that planets become more emphasised when they are retrograde ie appear to be going backwards from the perspective of us here on Earth. Personally, I find that simply terrifying when it comes to…
April 5th, 2017: Patience Required
- Mars in Taurus trine Pluto in Capricorn: 19 degrees
- Saturn stations Rx in Sagittarius: 27 degrees
Conscious, deliberate actions (Mars) harmonize with unconscious impulses and power (Pluto). The result is tremendous will that flows naturally. You can uncover something valuable, or make gradual progress. Taurus grounds Capricorn’s ambition in the present, and Capricorn prods Taurus forward.
But don’t expect quick or showy results. Earth signs (especially Taurus) move slowly. And Saturn Rx (ruler of Capricorn) will intensify responsibilities, delay goals, or call for a reassessment of the rules. Any progress you make may feel incremental, or useless. Don’t get discouraged – you’re doing something real, although the final results may not be apparent for some time. Saturn will station direct on August 25th (21 degrees Sagittarius) and Mars will conjoin the Leo North Node on August 27th (at 24 degrees). Actions will be aligned with attention-grabbing progress, and it will be obvious (Leo).
Until then, it’s a time of patience and steady action. You can push past a block, and it should happen naturally. Yes, even with Saturn Rx. Overcoming that block may be part of the review process. Trust that your efforts are making a difference.
Note that Saturn stations Rx on the evening of April 5th or morning of April 6th, depending on your time zone.

Hitting A Wall
A lot of people are hitting a wall right now. I was talking to a friend who has a lot of Capricorn in her chart. We have this in common. “You’re not going to win every hand,” I said, recalling … Read More…

A Cosmic Blink Directed Toward America!

Perhaps you can enlarge the image and read a few notes?

Repairing Broken Fences | Saturn Retrograde, Mercury Retrograde
Saturn retrograde. We’re temporarily stepping away from what has normally held us up; in order to get a better evaluation of the time and energy it has required of us. As we begin to shift back a bit, we’ll be able to get a much broader view of all that’s been built – which we’ve […]
