the devil you know

Posted on by

Better the devil you know than the one you don’t. 

Saturn has one hell of a nasty rep.  * see horns  ^
Who wouldn’t love  restriction, responsibilities, duty, and being an olde sour pessimistic, melancholy workaholic cuss ! ! . . ?! . . . anyone ?  haha yeeeah. exactly.

I was thinking the other day this ‘devil you know business’ may as well be my anthem, code, motto whatever.  Why ?  Well, being the child of 2 Capricorn Suns, and a Cap rising myself, I have had Saturn up my nostril since. . . well, ever.

YeeHAW Not.

I have Saturn retrograde in its fall in Aries 3rd.  For non – astro folks, that translates as self (1st house) restrictions on any and all actions (Mars rules Aries) and thinking (3rd house is thinking).  Is why I go on & On & ON  about mindful thoughts and morphing the business model in the brainpan to a more happy blissful state.

Ya know, Saturn is the new sunshine and rainbows and all that jazz. 

Saturn IS actually helpful – it keeps us tethered to this planet, makes juice into concentrate, it’s the groovy trick that keeps us from flying out of the Round UP rides.

Ahem. but seriously, what got me started on this Saturn post ?
Kids in the Hall  !  !

 ::::: I AM CRUSHING YOUR HEAD ::::::

 Saturn. the Workhorse. is. on. my. Midheaven.

Dear Goddess of All Things Groovy,
Will there ever be frolick for me at the festy again ?!
Please say yes ! 
Yours truly, Gneissest Moon Evah

HA ! sorta.
Nah, just kidding, I will obviously live with Saturn, but you get my point.  Lots and lots of work, but Saturn requires it.  The rewards are great, a job well done, self- satisfaction, you know, that sittin’ on top of the world  thang.
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
I find this is an excellent time to noodle around with facing some Saturnian fears as well . . . brave ones can tell me how I do in the comments . . .  I’ll go first !

FACES of FEAR  in Fuchsia for fun

Saturn in Aries or 1st house: head trauma, accidental violence, facial scars, dentists drill, migraines, fumbling the ball or worse yet – an interception

Saturn in Taurus or 2nd house: choking, poverty, deadlines, unreliability, theft of personal objects, frenetic jazz and or opera crescendos

Saturn in Gemini or 3rd house: asphyxiation, inability to communicate, being pigeonholed or illogical, stuck in a corner with boring people who never shut up

Saturn in Cancer or the 4th: loss of family, fear of childbirth, insensitivity, confrontation, empty nest, feeling alone and hungry without cheese

Saturn in Leo or the 5th: bad love affairs, heart trouble, lack of willpower, being ignored, cowardice, loss of good looks, breaking mirrors, back burner, bad hair days

Saturn in Virgo or 6th house:  illness, being dispensable, impracticability, faulty logic, causing harm, having nothing to clean, organize or fix, crooked pictures on the wall

Saturn in Libra or 7th house: injustice, imbalance, insincerity, inequality, making decisions, filth, relationship chains, excessive body hair, mis-matched clothes

Saturn in Scorpio or 8th house: loss of power or control, shallowness, being exposed, unfulfilled desires, lack of sex or obsessing about lack of sex, milk toast

Saturn in Sagittarius or 9th house:  inability to roam far and wide, ethical crossfire, detailed work that requires finesse, intellectual joke fail, last call

Saturn in Capricorn or 10th house: career fail, breaking bones, losing teeth, coming in second place, being irresponsible, incompetence, disloyalty, taking orders, vacations

Saturn in Aquarius or 11th house: intellectual stagnation, being unoriginal or uninteresting, not knowing purpose in universe, surrender to apathy, status quo

Saturn in Pisces or 12th house: confinement, being forced into beliefs, large crowds,  too busy to daydream, spiritual constriction, lack of REM, concentration, reality

::::::::::::::::::::
Some of the Saturnian things above are in jest, but all are shades of truth. Hope you find it insightful / delightful more than frightful.   Each is a general read – not taking into account your personal natal chart and aspects, which will reveal many layers beyond the above.

My Saturn is Aries 3, so I read both Aries / 3rd house to flesh out my Saturn bones.
Follow the same template for your own aspects.

Speaking of Saturn pressing down, time flies when I work 24/8.  It is late, and Labor day  was exactly that – it is TIME to pillow crash.

peace out peeps

Lives in the lines

Posted on by

Zasu

The human body is made of crystal structures – liquid crystal structures.

We enter earth life tuned by the singing of the hemispheres – the vibrations of the celestial bodies calling to us from the heavens at our time of birth. We are complex crystal prisms shifting and drifting in a cosmic sea of harmonic resonance.

Plato stated, “Every figure, every row of numbers and every assemblage of harmonious sounds, and the accordance of the cycles of the celestial bodies and the One as an analogy for all which is manifesting itself must become exceedingly clear to him who is searching in the right manner. That of which we speak will however come to light if one strives to recognize all, while not losing sight of the One. It is then that the connecting link of the ones named will come to light.“

The path of all harmonies leads and blends into the ONE, or Tao.
:::::::::::::::

When holding a printed copy of your natal chart in your hand, it may appear static, one dimensional, limited.

This is the beauty of its simplicity.
Is the desert without life ?
Only to the casual observer.
For those who shift focus . . . life and more life.

Imagine your personal prism . . . choices that have approached you throughout your life.  How you chose to respond was your vibration, your wavelength at the time.  These choices and growth spurts are echoes of the hemispheres – for we are ONE with the cosmos.  The growth we experience through each stage of life is attended by an audience of celestial bodies.

Recognize the chakra centers ? 
Muladhara (root) increases to the higher octave Sahasrara (crown) on the right.

Think of your living crystals this way – wavelengths and vibrations.
Think of your natal chart this way as well.
Shift focus – like tweaking a lenticular image – and you will literally see another dimension to your natal map.
A higher vibration – another octave – you will hear, see new notes.
::::::::::::::::

Let me explain . . .
I have Saturn Rx in Aries 3 trine Mars in Sagittarius. 
The prominent life – long big whopper standard interps for me equal:

I have stamina (Mars) over the long haul (Saturn / time).
Absence of the father growing up. (Saturn Rx)
Reading and writing (Saturn in 3rd, learning) and expanding my spiritual horizons (Sagittarius, higher learning and spiritual) are places where I apply force (Mars).

Shift focus, and the trivial weird stuff can be seen:

Lousy typist (Saturn restricts the hand movements – 3rd rules hands).
Pretty zen unless I am behind the wheel (3rd house is commuting) and other drivers disregard obvious traffic patterns (3rd house – patterns) then I fume (Mars).
Inked (Saturn / permanent, 3rd writing) on hand.  (mystical, Sag)
Scars on hand (3rd house) from burns and stabbing. (Mars)
Prone to headaches (Saturn restriction in head), will not headbutt (talk to the hand).
:::::::::
This is why I think everyone should study astrology – it is the best personal enlightenment tool I have seen to date.  Opportunities for insights are limitless ~
:::::::::

The cool thing is the natal map can describe others who are in your circle as well.
(That’s what I was going on about in my last post – I saw someone in my aspects !)

Saturn (and Sun) rule the father. 
Here is how my Dad shows up in my chart.
(I am Saturn in Aries 3 trine Mars in Sag ::  Virgo Sun conj Uranus / Pluto)

My Dad worked (Saturn) as a purchasing agent, on the phone all the time – sales. (3rd house is communication)
He medalled in track (Mars Sag) many times.
He lived many years past the date his cancer doctor predicted he would. (Saturn trine Mars)   This is also indicated by my Sun (father, life, fame or prominent in some way) conjunct Uranus (unusual or curious) Pluto (death).
Neat freak. (Sun Virgo stellium)
:::::::::::::

Incredibly groOovy that the course written in the life map is so simple, yet infinitely complex, textured and rich like a prism refracting light into rainbows . . . yes . . ?
