*+-I’m having a Saturn transit. I need to hold a funeral. Not for a dead body but for an idea or two. Dead dreams. Saturn square the 11th House of Fondest Hopes and Dreams, as my teacher used to say. Today was an interesting day: one piece of hate mail, […]
Saturn Transit

*+-Beth cracked me up in the comments just now. Earlier today I was writing a gloomy Saturn transit post and mentioned that I’d post some cheery rainbow hug-the-crystals- blogpost later. And she was wondering where it was. Thanks for that, Beth 🙂 My hug-the-crystals post was indeed another Saturn transit […]
*+-When our lives change in big ways, we tend to lose people. At least I do. Not everyone can come along for the rest-of-our-lives ride. I remember when my mother died, I lost a close friend. She stopped coming around and that made me angry. I wrote her a note. […]
*+-I promised I was going to give you my Hug the Crystals blog post 😉 A message to help me, and others, dealing with irritating gnawing transits that make you want to gouge out your eyeballs or walk in front of a speeding #7 train. So to speak. So here’s […]
*+-Saturn through my 2nd House is kicking my ass. Saturn is fear. Saturn oppresses. Saturn blocks. I have no nice words for Saturn today. I am not very New Agey, I know. Not in the mood for that. But I’ll hug the crystals for you tomorrow, when I feel better […]
*+-On my “Letter to Readers” post, a loyal reader suggested I write about my Saturn transit since I’m in the middle of one and having trouble writing! So thank you for the suggestion. I appreciate it. I appreciate the other folks who chimed in too. The thing is… I want […]
*+-I’ve never had surgery, but recently had two “procedures” involving local anesthesia and the cutting of skin. Or “snipping” as my dermatologist said the other day. Thanks, Doc! But seriously, my doctor is expert and gentle, and I trust him, but I felt totally worn out on those cutting days. […]
*+-Saturn transits feel like someone’s turned out the light. From inside. Or maybe it’s just a another kind of light that you’re becoming. Maybe you’re a candle now or a pilot light that has to be continually re-lit because the flame keeps going. Saturn transits force you to slow down […]
*+-I think that you don’t know, can’t know, what a transit means until you live through it and then reflect. What’s your option otherwise? Books? Other people’s experience? All valid, okay. But it’s not your own. I have some earth in my chart. I like evidence. Proof. I mean, I’ll take […]
*+-Yesterday I wrote my pregnancy post which wasn’t about a REAL pregnancy but a metaphorical one. I have Saturn transiting my 2nd House and that part of the chart, for transits, is considered to be an area of darkness in a sense: a time for planning, preparing, not yet the […]
*+-I have an announcement to make. I’m pregnant. No no no, not THAT kind of pregnant. It’s a metaphor. When the transiting slow-moving planets are hanging out in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd Houses of our charts, we have to be patient. It’s not the time for expansion. It’s not the time for […]
*+-So I keep threatening to leave Facebook and I see this as a manifestation of transiting Saturn applying to my Sun, Mercury and Mars in Cancer, especially my Mercury. 2nd House to 11th house. My friendships are being affected, but more the not-in-person-Facebook-reconnection-type friendship, which is pretty 11th House if you think […]
*+-This post was written this morning while I was on the subway… Every New Yorker is familiar with these muffled announcements: “train traffic ahead,” or “red signal in front of us,” signifying a wait (hello Saturn) of an indeterminate amount. I can hear other, luckier, trains moving past us, most […]
*+-There is no way to separate the Full Moon in Capricorn from our buddy Saturn, in Libra. See, Saturn rules Capricorn, and the Moon in Capricorn squared Saturn in Libra. It was a brief transit, the Moon moves quickly, but a painful one, harsh. If all of this criss-crossing confuses you, don’t worry. The […]
*+-Saturn is finishing up his time in Libra. You know this. I know this. Saturn defines, pushes us to define. Saturn limits. Libra is relationships. Ever know a happy single Libra? Here’s today’s Saturn in Libra story and I expect these will keep coming for me until our mighty friend Saturn […]
*+-I was going to write about my Saturn transit this morning, I have the notes for it, but instead I may just post the Billie Holiday song which came to mind as I was writing. “Love for Sale.” Fits, doesn’t it? Libra is love i.e. Venus i.e relationships. The 2nd […]
