Saturn Leaps Up Out of Pisces & Splashes Down On the Fiery Beaches of Aries!
Thirty years ago, Saturn, planet of time, discipline, and structure, splashed into the ocean of Pisces and found itself in the deep waters with Neptune, Lord of refinement, religion, visions and absolutely no boundaries. In other words, Saturn almost drowned! But now Saturn has risen up out of those deep Piscean waters and splashed itself on the beaches of fiery Aries! From water to fire – it can be a rather steamy situation ‘til Saturn finds its way in the new element of fire. So what does it mean for Saturn to be in Aries?
On Saturday, May 24, Saturn crossed the threshold of Aries. Saturn is structures, Aries is all things new. Saturn in Aries initiates new structures, new disciplines, rules and realities for humanity. This begins a new 30-year cycle of time, with the fires of Aries assisting Saturn in its new task – bring forth new structures that unfold the new Aquarian era.
So, both Saturn and Aries are calling all thinkers, initiators, entrepreneurs, dreamers, disciples and visionaries to step forward and begin the “new work” of the “new Aquarian era”– the new culture and civilization, the Golden Age.
Saturn (structure) will catch up with Neptune (dreamtime) and a newer refinement will take place on Earth, resonating with the sound of community. This is a collective change, and this year brings to humanity changes never seen or experienced for centuries.
Saturn will be in Aries for 2½ years (May 24, 2025 – April 14, 2028, including retrogrades back into Pisces). Aries is the wild one of the zodiac. Saturn in Aries attempts to tame Aries, calling for a maturation, a sense of responsibility (needed to help create the new culture and civilization of Aquarius).
Saturn asks us to commit to our dreams (Pisces), to have patience (Aries fire is very impatient) and to choose to complete our tasks (Aries is unable to complete tasks, giving them to Taurus instead).
We are to have the courage to persist, have focused goals, and anchor our aspirations into that which is tangible. In other words, our previous self-identity will change, we become adults, assume long-term responsibility and realize an inner spiritual strength. The time has come! And so… Saturn in Aries will focus on…
ARIES: Identity. In the next several years you’ll break from the past and all things (people, ideas, beliefs, fears) that have hindered freedom, self-identity, creativity and self-expression. You trusted others to have your interests at heart. However, you found this had its limits. An awakening is occurring, informing you to be strong and make decisions about and for yourself, and to change your image to that of being a success. A spiritual person in the world success!
TAURUS: Inner worlds. Things unaware of and habitual come to consciousness to be pondered upon and then released. All things private will be reviewed, especially beliefs about religion, spirituality and helping others. You will recognize how you feel when behind the scenes instead of being front and center initiating world realities. Anything secret, already somewhat exposed, may have more light shed upon it. Nothing’s private anymore because it’s the past. And that needs shaking up through interesting coincidences that occur.
GEMINI: Groups. Your circle of friends (groups that surround, accept and love you), listen intently to your carefully gathered information. They begin to study what you are teaching for they are devoted to knowing the new world religion and creating all things new. However, a review beforehand is necessary so that the successes of the past can provide a foundation for what is yet to come forth. This is based on visioning, needs, and the requirements of the Aquarian Age. What are they?
CANCER: The World. There’s a feeling of deja vu, or karma and of knowing a new world is quickly approaching. There’s a review occurring with your communication and career, how you as a leader relate to friends and co-workers. You want to be free of the past. However the past hasn’t revealed all of its secrets yet. More of your talents along with how to approach your work in the world with a dedicated and fully conscious sense of serving need more self-discovery. When you appear, everyone’s liberated. Why would that be?
LEO: Truth & Travel. Will you be traveling unexpectedly? Perhaps travel is already thought about and planned. Know something unexpected will occur providing you with a sense of freedom, liberation from difficult feelings, past beliefs, and that ongoing sense of limitation. Notice as you think differently, those you meet are also different. Tradition is cast to the winds as you begin to cherish and welcome the unconventional. It’s time to study something (unusual) that sets you upon a new path of endeavor.
VIRGO: Sharing. It’s practical, useful and sensible at this time to tend to money and resources with extra care as something could occur that’s unexpected (again?) especially with shared resources. Keep up with all legal deadlines and matters – taxes, loans, debt. If not taken care of, pleasure and ease could be limited and expenditures multiply. Something experimental and unusual will take place. Expect this and maintain balance each day through intentional goodwill, which leads to harmony and right relations.
LIBRA: Relationships. If interactions or relationships seem confusing or difficult, you may simply walk away thinking the situation too hard to bear. Cooperation is needed now, and patience in order to understand what actions are appropriate and how to respond when everything feels limiting. Explore ways with those you love that bring about wonder instead of sameness and boredom. Explore the impossible, impractical, the unattainable and the unachievable. The outcome will be fascinating and interesting.
SCORPIO: Daily life. The habitual, regular, normal, consistent, orderly and routine in daily life, all work and relationships unexpectedly change. Anything confining will be liberated, including people, places, things, ideas and beliefs, especially what creates separations and blocks love in your life. You might feel restless, and so a new rhythm will be sought. Alternative methods of healing – laser light, energetic medicine, homeopathy, acupuncture become useful. Eventually only the unconventional (read holistic) will make sense.
SAGITTARIUS: Creativity. More and more you find yourself thinking original and unconventional thoughts, seeking creative tasks, actions, art, interactions and out of the ordinary activities. And actually these begin to describe who you are becoming. They provide you with liberty, expansion and freedom of expression. It would be good to tell close friends and family that you’re moving into an unusual, original, perhaps eccentric period of creativeness. It’s also a time of seeking more fun and play. Unusual attractions occur, too.
CAPRICORN: Home. You’ll return to an earlier interest, work, theme concerning family and home seeing how your history and early life interface with and influence your present. Don’t be surprised if home life is somehow disrupted, if time speeds up and slows down (like the tides), if routines keep changing, if decisions are quickly called for while patience dwindles. Hold all these things within a heart-felt spirit of understanding that there’s no more normal, anywhere, with anything. For all of us, this is preparation.
AQUARIUS: Communication. You think about neighborhoods from long ago to better understand that time in your life. Being in touch, reaching out in communication with friends, are part of a focus of care in your life now. When you reach out and make contact love is released. You look for and find new thinking, new realities, ideas, fields of study, new concepts that expose the future. Seeking new routines, you might dress, think, relate and express yourself differently. A new life-pattern comes forth. Read Billy and the Giant Adventure by Jamie Oliver
PISCES: Values. You are awakening to the fact that you are of great value, something not realized before to such depth. As your thoughts of self as valuable grow and are cultivated, all that you do value will change. I have found that without a sense of self-confidence firmly established, there is less forward movement because the self doesn’t know what to choose or how to take action. This will change too. Always ask if your choice and actions are practical and for the good. Begin each day with the Will to Good, the Will to Love.
