Everything must change…Nothing stays the same…
Have you heard these words before? They are words to a song and if these words are not familiar to you, it doesn’t matter, you can just look at life and know this is the theme right now…Nothing stays the same.
CHANGE is life and it is happening everywhere, in ways we never imagined.
From an astrological view, let’s check in with our old buddy Saturn and see what’s up in the next couple of days.
Saturn is truly our buddy – our stabilizer for structures and systems, inside our body and our environment.
Since September 7, 2007, Saturn entered the Element of Earth through the sign of Virgo, whose planetary “ruler” is Mercury.
What does all of this mean?
- The Element of Earth is the foundation for Life…represented by our Home planet Earth.
- Virgo is the energy of health, healing, service, animals and the details of daily life – our physical world/body and daily order.
- Mercury is the “messenger of the Gods” – the bridge between the Universe and the frontal lobe of our brain that is dependent on memory and understanding.
When Mercury goes retrograde, we get all frustrated because communication seems disrupted, appointment fall through, we can’t remember details etc. That is because retrograde Mercury is bridging with our intuition and the frontal lobe of our brain and ordinary thinking seems to be on pause.
So for 2 years, collectively we have been experiencing some or all of the above in different ways in our lives.
Two more days, on October 29,2009, and something will change.
Saturn leaves the Earth sign of Virgo and enters the Air sign of Libra. This will not be happening again for 30 years.
Remember, Saturn is about systems and structures and stabilizes our foundation for renewal…this means consciousness, intentions, focus, belief systems, choices, behavior and action as well.
For 2 years, this energy has been focused in our cognitive minds where we have been making so many decisions based on so many changes that feel like a tsunami of consciousness in our daily lives.
We needed to make new choices and create new structures to be prepared for Saturn to enter Libra and receive Venus for the next 3 years.
Does this mean we can actually “get out of our heads” for a while and “into our hearts”? Yes, as a matter of fact, from October 30, 2009 to October 6, 2012, Saturn will be in Libra, the first time in 30 years.
By Element alone, this change makes a difference. All Elements - Fire, Earth and Water are dependent on Air; thus all life on earth in in relationship to Air.
- Without Air/breath there is no life: More Air, means more life.
- Libra is devoted to beauty, order, balance, harmony and justice in relating - on every level of life. This is the energy of the true Peace Keeper.
- Venus represents the arts, beauty, creativity, love and compassion.
Mercury is about choices, decisions and action. (Masculine principle)
Venus is about receiving – intuition, love, and creativity. (Feminine Principle)
As a collective, we have the opportunity to consciously create balance inside and out between our masculine/feminine principle. This balance is essential if we are to survive because it is a basic foundation of sustainable living. It is about being able to breath in and breath out…the balance for all life.
So ask yourself:
- How prepared am I to allow life to become more gracious? Less stressful?
- Am I open to receive more love in my life? More creativity? More possibility and potential?
- Do I really want to live peacefully? With myself? My partner? My Children? My family? My community? My nation? My Global Family?
- Am I willing to release the conflict between my head and heart?
- Will I allow my health and happiness to be renewed through forgiveness and compassion?
- Can I compliment rather than criticize and complain about others and myself?
- Do I believe in loving and being loved?
And the list will continue, as we receive more breath and become more alive in all areas of our life.
Life is very different now than 30 years ago when Saturn was in Libra. You and I and our daily thoughts, choices and action will determine the sustainability of the next 30 years for our children and ourselves.
Will you choose Love? The power of Venus is with you 24/7 for the next 3 years to practice this as a lifestyle.
Blessings in your choices and actions,
Kay
