Saturn enters Scorpio: The Truth Transforms

Saturn enters Scorpio

4:34pm EDT

05 October

Everyone’s Scorpio slice of life is about to get intense to say the least, but if you have done your soul’s homework up til now, what blessings The Eagle can bring you will be connecting you to soar far more than you could ever imagine. As Mars has just prepared the stage here since 23 August- as our Messenger Mercury simultaneously arrives along with our Karmic Adjustor dear old Saturn- not only is this a most interesting time, but an exciting one.

Those who love to be responsible to the depths of life, the mysterious, the esoteric, allowing regeneration and change, embracing death and rebirth- will find themselves relishing in the next couple of years. This most certainly is a passage of truth. As Saturn enters Sagittarius in a couple more years, it will have come out and those who hate the truth, will be the ones who live in the lower energy of the Scorpion’s sting. Those that choose to embody The Eagle, will see their higher self rise to levels never imagined before- that will emerge from the depths of the unknown.

Allow your free-will to choose to not subscribe to the typical “gloom and doom” astrology forecast when it comes to Saturn. Yes, times ahead are gonna shake things up a bit, but some of the most marvelous times in history amongst such energies promise to produce some equally marvelous results when you know how to handle it all in response and not the react. Our response to the mysterious truth that exists within Scorpio is what is required now.

Scorpio energy is so precious but it cannot -above any other sign in the Zodiac- be abused, for the ill power that results is tormented beyond belief. When the presence of such a planet as Saturn is here, the accountability to this area of the life should not be ignored. It will be natural to see the slowing down of energies here, so that the patience pace of Saturn can help you learn from whatever experiences are meant to shape and mold the life into the stability that it is meant to grow into. Resistance to this, as they say is all the more futile. You’ve got to LISTEN to Saturn and be SILENT as you would hearing sound advice from a Father or authority figure.

As any individual will witness on a personal level what slow process of change Saturn will present while visiting with The Eagle- the collective will equally see this to be a time of profound transformation, regeneration and change. As Saturn transits through Scorpio, this simultaneously occurs as our already ongoing Uranus Pluto Square Dance plays out into 2015. Saturn -even though he will move forward into Sagittarius in early 2015, due to his Retrograde- will not officially be done with Scorpio completely for another 28 years until the summertime of 2015.

What becomes another point of interest to mention is how Saturn and Pluto’s current transits within Scorpio and Capricorn are playing out in this time in history.  There is a reversal in their journeys, as Saturn, who governs Capricorn, is in the very sign that Pluto -currently in Capricorn- governs of Scorpio. Saturn and Pluto are our most karmic planets within our planetary sky. As they both now mirror one another in the two most karmic signs on our Zodiac Wheel- well, let’s just repeat as we did in the beginning of this blog post, how very very interesting and exciting times we are most certainly amongst in history.

One of the two times we see these two planets give and take with one another will be as Pisces comes to pass in 2013. On 08 March 2013, Saturn Retrograde in Scorpio will sextile Pluto in Capricorn at the 11th degree. Even though a sextile is typically a pleasing energy, the 11 here denotes the Chaldeans innate knowing of the duality of this master number representing ‘A Lion Muzzled –A Clenched Fist.’  This will unfold an incredibly sensitive time as not only will this degree point ask for a emotional response verses reaction, but the concentration of other planetary energy in Pisces at this time unfolds a empathic calling that will start the true message of what humanity is meant to begin within it’s adaptations to seek understanding on immense levels. The presence of two will stand, and some how, a co-operative force not easily met, beckons to be heard.

Looking ahead to 21 September 2013, we see another sextile as Saturn in Scorpio and Pluto in Capricorn touch at 09 degrees above us all. Down here below, this will unfold in the last moments of Virgo at 29 degrees requesting ‘Grace Under Pressure‘ before Autumn 2013 arrives. At the 09 degree, there will be quite a shift in energy as a penetrating energy promises to unfold conclusions, finalizations and endings to how things are progressing. Conflict and aggressive action are on high alert to occur, but it will be the ultimate response of courage that will win any battle that may present itself to be fought.  Old traditions will be asked to responsibly transform and regenerate for long-term success and survival, making sure what you are seemingly comfortable with will not exactly remain the same. And don’t forget about Uranus always just a slightly squaring off this whole deal over in Aries- who will without question, make sure the realms of the rebellious and unexpected will continue to originate from The Ram. While we really have no idea how it will exactly be told, a whole new chapter of Huxley’s ‘A Brave New World’ will be written.

So ARE YOU READY FOR CHANGE Dear Stars? This time in our Zodiac lesson, it is best you raise your hand with a solid YES! For those -as Saturn in Scorpio patiently unfolds- willing to adapt and understand what death and rebirth truly means in life, will be the victors. Those choosing stagnation and closing their mind to the movement about to begin, will not be amongst those that find the glory in the years to come.

Where will you see Saturn’s affects call upon you the most? We have, as always, a little quick guide for you to be in the know of how and where to expect a slower, more responsible pace within this area of the life throughout 2015. Remember if you know your Rising Sign, read for that as well, but make sure you are in the know of the mathematical accuracy of your chart by consulting a professional astrologer. 



Aries: “I TRANSFORM” Transformations/Sexuality/Wealth 



Taurus: “I RELATE” Partnerships/Marriage/Balance with Others



Gemini: “I SERVE” Health/Being of Service/Employees/Pets



Cancer: “I CREATE” Creativity/Children/Love Affairs 



Leo: “I NURTURE” Home/Family/Emotions/Environments



Virgo: “I COMMUNICATE” Thinking/Mentality/Communications 



Libra: “I HAVE” Values/Earning Power/Possessions 



Scorpio: “I AM” Approaches/Mask to the World/Motivations 



Sagittarius: “I PROCESS” Inner Psyche/Clearing of the Past 



Capricorn: “I SOCIALIZE” Innovations/Friendships/Organizations 



Aquarius: “I STRUCTURE” Career/Public Life/Opportunities  



Pisces: “I BELIEVE” Philosophies/Foreign Travel/Education 

As Saturn will journey with Scorpio throughout December 2014, and then once more revisits here in the Summer of 2015, you’ll undeniably notice a slower pace coming from this piece of the Zodiac Pie. By honoring this request- true stability, wisdom and learning from the experience is all part of what unfolds. Collectively, striving to develop more emotional control, power of investigation, self-discipline, and independence lets in the forgiving spirit that is part of this period of intense transformation as the search for truth prevails in our earth’s history.


May You ‘Fly Like An Eagle’ Dear Stars til you’re FREE! 
The Truth: It sets you up to do just that!
Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’
Into the future

I want to fly like an eagle
To the sea
Fly like an eagle
Let my spirit carry me
I want to fly like an eagle
Till I’m free
Oh, Lord, through the revolution

Feed the babies
Who don’t have enough to eat
Shoe the children
With no shoes on their feet
House the people
Livin’ in the street
Oh, oh, there’s a solution

I want to fly like an eagle
To the sea
Fly like an eagle
Let my spirit carry me
I want to fly like an eagle
Till I’m free
Fly through the revolution

Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’
Into the future

I want to fly like an eagle
To the sea
Fly like an eagle
Let my spirit carry me
I want to fly like an eagle
Till I’m free
Fly through the revolution

Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’
Into the future

Saturn Retrograde in Libra, 2012

Settling Up With Saturn

07 February to 25 June 2012

Our planet of karmic justice takes his last reflective journey within The Scales, where he has officially been requesting responsibility since July 2010. Almost completing his passage through Libra, at the 29th degree, Saturn has decided it’s time for some necessary retreat.

Now, unlike our inner planets, an outer planet’s retrograde such as Saturn is not a complete chaotic change up show that someone like Mercury displays for the collective to experience when he takes a backwards trip. Saturn, being much further out in orbit, will be taking his time to exhibit the lessons he would like us all to pay a little closer attention to. If we comply- we will learn an exorbitant amount from them.

Look back to your life, to the time surrounding 04 November 2011. This is the place -where if we look at the approach period like any Mercury Retrograde- that Saturn began giving you clues about what he now wishes for you to take some necessary time through the end of June to ponder here, and ponder patiently, mind you, as he always prefers.

The clues are within the piece of your Zodiac Pie that span from 22 to 29 degrees Libra. If you have your natal chart, look to any planets place here, or ones placed elsewhere in the chart that make any particular aspects to these degree points. All planetary “chat” will be part of what Saturn wishes to relate through its’ last reflective journey in Libra for another 28 years.

Depending upon your unique mathematical star map, you may notice this years’ Saturn Retrograde will differ from the last in 2011, which spanned from 17 degrees to 10 degrees Libra over 25 January to 12 June. However -from the collective perspective- how Libra simply relates to your personal sun sign can still grant plenty of insight as to where you can best receive the gifts of what this passage has to offer.

Gifts? Some of you are probably laughing to think that Saturn grants us any gifts, being well known as the planet of restriction, hardship and troubled times. Granted, our karmic adjustor certainly is the planet that will cast lessons for us to learn. But these truly, only come into our realities when we do not choose to listen to his wisdom.

Saturn is much like a father, in where, if you do not do what he says, you’ll pay the price in some way shape or form, and typically rather handsomely through some punishment or discipline. If we can look at Saturn as the planet who honestly tells us where our ultimate responsibility must be adhered to, we will always reap rewards of stability. For most, stability is a gift that is sought all throughout our lives, yet most are not willing to be patient enough to wait for it.

As we exist in the most fast paced world in human history, the lessons of Saturn seem to catch up with souls all the easier in our modern society, in part, because no one is taught how to slow down. You’ll discover, by taking a closer look at your natal chart- the slice of life where Saturn is placed is one where you have always had to work just a little harder, and take on the energy here with pure wisdom to achieve positive outcomes. Slacking off and irresponsibility are truly frowned upon by Saturn, who just decides to interject more challenges until one figures out, this is not the way here.

So too, when looking to where the Karmic Adjustor is currently transiting in your life, will these same energies of hard work apply. This doesn’t mean life has to be terrible in whatever area of life he is within. By taking on a slowed down approach, true patience, and owning up to responsibility here- what real rewards can be reaped! Saturn makes anyone genuinely earn what comes to them through diligent ambition and effort, he does not just hand it over on a silver platter.

So, listen carefully to your Father Saturn. He is asking for you to apply some true “spiritual elbow grease” and take up with reflection, so that as he finishes up his karmic duties in Libra, you can move forward with all the wisdom in the world under your belt. From the collective perspective, you’ll probably agree since July 2010, you are working overtime here and have seen a slowing down as he currently asks for a mature attitude to unfold.

Aries: 7th House of Partnerships/Marriage

Taurus: 6th House of Health/Being of Service/Pets

Gemini: 5th House of Creativity/Children

Cancer: 4th House of Home/Family/Environment

Leo: 3rd House of Thinking/Mentality/Communications

Virgo: 2nd House of Values/Earning Power

Libra: 1st House of First Impressions/Approaches/Mask to the World

Scorpio: 12th House of Inner Work/Subconscious Process

Sagittarius: 11th House of Friendships/Groups/Hopes/Wishes

Capricorn: 10th House of Career/Public Life

Aquarius: 9th House of Higher Learning/Beliefs/Foreign Travel

Pisces: 8th House of Wealth/Sexuality/Core Transformations

Remember, if you know your natal chart, check out the house that 22 to 29 deg Libra falls, and discover further details about where you are able to reap rewards by tuning into Saturn’s request for patience, learning through experience and embracing the slower pace life is meant to have here for this planetary pass.

As the tortoise innately knew over the hare, “slow and steady wins the race.” Be kind and listen to the quiet pace that Saturn wishes for you to recognize and deeply understand as your soul continues on in its’ karmic journey here to evolve.
