Saturn in Aries: Delay Gratification

I realize I haven’t blogged in FOREVER and I’m sick of my writing voice. I’m working on book edits. Maybe being here, with you, blogging, will free me up, will make me feel free.

Here’s what I know: the less social media you consume the better but keep reading (books!) and keep writing. Better you create videos to share than to just eat them eat them eat them. PLEASE. Don’t let Pluto in Aquarius and coming-to-a-theatre-near-you Uranus in Gemini turn you into a passive gobbler of CONTENT. Avoid overwhelm by walking, reading, writing, and post to your own channels if you want BUT DO NOT JUST SCROLL. DO NOT TURN YOUR LIFE INTO SCROLLING SCROLLING SCROLLING.

Roll call!

Uranus entering Gemini next month

IS THIS ENOUGH CHANGE FOR YOU? Also, the Nodes haven’t been in Pisces/Virgo for that long so we’re still getting the hang of it. This much change in one year. Does anyone blog anymore? Am I the only one? Let me see how I can be helpful…

There’s so much change that I expect a feeling of continual adjustment. If you know where you’re going, you’re doing it wrong so yes it’s a Hanged Man surrender kind of feeling and action. Improve your listening skills.

Saturn doesn’t just block or make us feel afraid. Saturn creates structure where there wasn’t any and if you are feral in some area of your life, then this Saturn style will… not feel good. At first. It may feel IMPOSSIBLE but we all need frames. We live in bodies. We need law and order. For example, if I eat lasagna I will get sick. We need rules.

Saturn in Aries puts a frame around the most wild part of you. You want what you want when you want it and Saturn says NO, that’s not how it’s gonna go and you find yourself getting structured and organized and maybe chastised. Does Mars (i.e. Aries) want to be chastised? Hardly. A healthy, hardy Mars/Aries will say F YOU! So it’s uncomfortable. The phrase that comes to mind? Blue balls. Delaying gratification.

Now, at the same time, Neptune is in Aries and is blurring the lines. Neptune has no boundaries. Honestly, Mars doesn’t have much of a boundary either because it’s so impulsive. So Neptune is there egging on Mars and then comes officer Saturn trying to, well, put out the fire.

Feels like the Five of Wands, doesn’t it? Will Saturn and Neptune meet in the middle or…. what??? (And then Jupiter in Cancer will make a square to the Aries planets, also egging Mars on!!!)

These two are traveling through my EIGHTH HOUSE which is psychic power among other things. It is MEDIUMSHIP among other things. Will all us Eight House Aries folk have the dead people lining up for a chat? Ancestors clamoring for a seat at the table? My suggestion is to, of course, lean in to this energy. We can’t stop it (due to Neptune) but we can structure it (Saturn).

Neptune says: I’m gonna flood you.
Saturn says: NO YOU’RE NOT
Aries (Mars) says: Hahahahahahahahahahahahah

Is this a funny transit? It might be! LOL

Chaos. The Joker. The Fool card. The trickster. Wheel of Fortune with a side of Magician. You come out on top but what a ride! You win the lottery but it gets doled out so slowly so you wait and you wait. Saturn keeps us SAFE.

MY god I’ve been doing this work for over 15 years. Seriously doing the work, as a grown up. I’ve kept it going through all the ups and downs of my own life and believe me there have been many and weathered the storms through all the trends and apps and Pluto entering Aquarius.

What will happen next? ONLY URANUS IN GEMINI KNOWS FOR SURE! Uranus in Gemini spins the big wheel. Uranus in Gemini LOVES Pluto in Aquarius and LOVES Saturn and Neptune in Aries so we have all this big beautiful harmony in the sky.

ROLL CALL! 
Your Aquarius House, your Gemini House, your Aries House is your nexus of adventure/Fool card/Wheel/Chariot. Stability is always only an illusion. Things can change on a dime. Y’all know I wrestle with staying in psychoanalytic training vs. run run run away from it all. I think to myself: Uranus is on the verge of entering Gemini. Who are we to believe we have free will? Sometimes I see these ex therapists on YouTube speculating about needing to make a choice. How can they do that work when they’ve had or want to create an on-line presence. I have no answers to the big questions except to say that EVERYTHING IS AN ENACTMENT (as a wise man said to me the other day). It’s all grist for the mill.

In closing: we got chaos. Chaos is here. Chaos is the name of the game. NEPTUNE IS IN ARIES. Are you kidding me? Neptune in fireball Aries? You will be more psychic, more funny, more wild, more adventurous, more tempestuous, more outspoken, more Marsy. We need the Saturn influence, yes, to keep us safe, but don’t let it clip your wings. That’s my advice for right now. I may have more advice later!
