Saturn Retrograde: The High Side Of Losing Ground

I wrote that piece when Saturn went retrograde in February.  Saturn turns direct in July. I thought it would be a good idea to check in with this since people have been having such a hard time, particularly in the last few weeks.

I wrote about how the comments Ben made to the parents of one of the girls in his class had shocked me. I shocked him back during the same conversation. The unpredictability (Uranus) is one of the things we like about each other.

“I was surprisingly upset when Annette Funicello died,” he said. “I was upset by it.”

Have you ever sat on a plane next to someone who talked your ear off?  This eclipse has that kind of flavor. I liked what eva had to say on the subject: “I see a lot of inebriated people saying way too much more than they intended.”

The Moon in Sagittarius opposes the Sun in Gemini. Both bodies square Neptune, giving us a T-square in the mutable signs. This combination does spell, “crazy talk” and a lot of it.

A man was telling me about hp he grew up being told he had a calling in life.  He was taught that he had a vocation and he believed this.  Because he believed this, he sought to discover what his calling might be. This is very different than growing up being told you should be what you want to be.

I’ve been tracking my lunar returns for many years. I’ve come to see the charts as telling my monthlong mood or emotional state. I look at my lunar return to see how it’s going be for me, month to month.

For example, I am in a private phase right now. I am not doing much “reaching out” as they say, because I am some kind of alchemical process. I can look at next month’s lunar return chart and see that I am going to be far more visible, communicative and boisterous.

My friend Ben is a Scorpio, but he has Aquarius rising with Uranus in Leo conjunct his descendent, and you just never what he’s going to do. His antics continue to surprise me and I’ve known him for three decades!

He was telling me about a girl in one of his classes, she’s a weirdo.  Try not to react to that. Just stay with me on this.

“Truth will come to light; murder cannot be hid long; a man’s son may; but, in the end, truth will out.”
- Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice, 1596

I used to think this was a reliable statement but I’ve learned otherwise.  Sometimes the truth does come out but just as often the truth is never known, at least not on this plane.

My friend, Ben is a Scorpio with his Moon in Aries.  His Sun is in the 10th house and he’s always been a leader-in-charge.

We were talking about emotional sensitivity.  He said that people sense how he feels (or how they think he feels) about them. This determines how they interact with him.

Many years ago, I coined a phrase: “Live your sun, satisfy your moon.” If you can manage these two things, you’ll be well on your way towards enjoying a fulfilling life

Your sun represents your vital life energy. It seems it would be automatically expressed, but this is not always the case. I want to cover this today.

Your sun has to do with your vocation in life. It shows how your vital life energy is best expressed.

From my newsletter (sent tomorrow):

“The Uranus Pluto square has brought traumatic upheaval to  all of our lives on some level. Saturn in Scorpio, pressures the psyche and the collective in general…”
