Capricorn, Saturn And Compassion

Astrology in real life

saturn planet niceThis is from 2008. My husband and I were coming off years of intense difficulty, the kind you don’t even speak of.

“I wouldn’t worry about that,” I said. “We are in impossible conditions, trying to have a life. I have been in impossible conditions myself, for 9 years. The conditions were  completely impossible but I still managed to have some kind of life.”

Karma and Consequences Mild and Severe: Saturn in the Natal Chart?

November 20th, 2011 @ 9:26 am by Elsa

Ask the Collective

saturnI have a friend who is cautious because whenever he tries to shirk anything, he’s typically caught and the consequences are generally severe.

I, on the other hand, get away with almost everything.  When I am caught the consequences are what would be expected some of the time,  but frequently they are light and even more frequently they are waived all together.

Defense Against Rejection

October 7th, 2011 @ 5:04 am by Elsa

Astrology in real life

nutsy called himself  “standoffish” on the Obnoxious board post and started me thinking. Most of us have some kind of defense against rejection.  If you have Capricorn in your chart, this goes double.  In thinking about this, I realized that my defense online is very different than my defense in real life.

Relationships: Saturn, Structure And Security

September 25th, 2011 @ 7:18 pm by Satori

“Work is love made visible. And if you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of those who work with joy.”
–Khalil Gibran

SaturnSaturn contacts in synastry are relationship glue, attachments that hold it together. They also show restriction and pressure, restriction to the energy of the planet they aspect and pressure to learn and mature. Sometimes pressure will mold things into a more mature form and other times it crushes or pushes away. In any case it brings serious attention to whatever it touches.

History Repeats… 28.5 Year Saturn Cycle Update

August 26th, 2011 @ 7:08 am by Elsa

Astrology in real life

In 2009, I wrote about how I saw history repeating – The 28 1/2 Year Saturn Cycle: History Repeats – A Personal Story Of The Cold War, The Iran Hostage Crisis, Jim Jones… And Love Unending. I wondered at that time if the trend would continue and how it might be impacted by my marriage.

My husband and I could have married when we were kids. We did not and so our lives took the courses they took.  Given a second chance we did marry and I wondered what effect it would have.  Would it set up a new cycle?

Saturn Aspecting Personal Planets

May 14th, 2011 @ 6:00 pm by Satori

“A man may fulfill the object of his existence by asking a question he cannot answer, and attempting a task he cannot achieve.”
–Oliver Wendell Holmes

gavelSaturn is responsibility, slow-down, restriction, “do the right thing,” and judgement. Saturn in the houses will show where we have responsibility, but it doesn’t necessarily show how we treat that responsibility or how we feel about it. Do you have Saturn aspecting a personal planet? Do you judge yourself?

Getting Real with My Saturn Return

April 13th, 2011 @ 1:21 am by Nota

Notes from the Transit Authority

I have observed something recently (and by recently I mean over the past few months.)

I’ve been writing about my Saturn Return. Not just in my last piece here but I’ve mentioned it off and on for a while now. I have used the phrase “things are getting real.”

And each time it elicits what I consider an odd response.

Saturn Retrograde and My “Against the Grain” Revelation

April 11th, 2011 @ 8:35 pm by Nota

Notes from the Transit Authority

I had a revelation earlier today sitting in the car with my head in my purse… If I want to get anything done right now, I’m going to have to go against the grain.

WTF!?

This was a new idea to me. I’m not kidding, I’m almost 30. My life up to this point has been a epic Neptunian float along. I have gone with the flow down more dubious eddies than I can count, and conveniently forgotten a lot of them, and magically woken back up on a calm sea. All with the mantra “This is what the universe wants me to see.”

Ginsberg Had Pisces

March 16th, 2011 @ 8:00 am by Nota

Hopefully Coherent Ramblings

This was post the House on Fry St. Era. Chris and I had moved into a small brick apartment building one street over.

I befriended one of our Indian neighbors. His name was Harsh which he said meant happiness. “I know, I know, that is like the opposite of happiness, Whoa, Harsh! But I assure you, it means happiness.”

Harsh had a 10th house Leo Sun/Cancer Moon combo and was into rock climbing. He frequently tried to coerce me into joining him at the rock climbing gym

One afternoon Harsh came knocking at the door, not an unusual occurrence. But this time, instead of wanting to hang out and practice guitar, he had a question. “What do you know about poetry?”

Getting Beyond Blocks To Solve Difficult Problems

March 9th, 2011 @ 5:00 pm by Elsa

Astrology in real life

Continuing to carry on about helping people with difficult problems, I have been treated with concise instructions like this, many times in my life and nothing is more valuable.  In fact, I’ll give you a quirky example.

When I was a teenager, I wanted a credit card.  Credit was hard to get back then but I’d heard it was something  you should establish in your life, a so-called “line of credit”.

I had no co-signer. I’d been recently homeless, I had very little savings that I had scraped together by literally depositing one or two dollars at a time.  I have my original passbook, I can prove this but besides that, you see the situation here. I was a smart kid but how is that going to solve a problem like this?  I wound up asking an old man for advice.
