Saturn Stone

Posted on by

Ammonite

Fossil, Paleozoic Marine Arthropod

A stone with similarities to snails speaks of the slow passing of time and the architecture of the ages.  It is a stone of stability and protection.  Ammonite transmutes negativity into smooth flowing energy, encouraging relaxation.

Ammonite encourages circular breathing, making it an excellent stone ally during childbirth.  It enhances survival instincts and alleviates depression, good for bones and teeth.  Recommended for construction workers, those building structural foundations.

Vibrates to the number 9.

I chose this one for Fire on the 12th.

Mudjekeewis, Spirit keeper of the West (element Fire) is Father of all the Winds, he provides homes for the Thunder Beings.

His energy is strong in twilight time and in autumn.

Soapstone, cedar, gifts of adulthood, maturity, using expertise and valued skills are found in the west.  The grizzly bear vibrates to the western spirit – bear is both fierce and gentle; active in summer light, and inactive / hibernating in the winter dark. 

Breathe in western energy at sunset to help you walk the path of balance and cultivate awareness and acceptance of the worlds of light and dark; of life and death. 

Twilight is the magick hour when movement between worlds is possible.
Twilight is spiritual, creative, energetic and attractive.

Breath, relax your body, lightly focus your mind on your goal . . .let the spirit energy of the West rise to meet you on your path . . .

::::::::::::::::::::
To estimate the number of minutes until sunset:

1. Stretch out both arms in front of you.
2. Place one hand above the other with the little finger of one hand on the horizon.
3. Count the fingers (not thumbs) needed to block the sky between horizon and Sun.
4. Multiply the number of fingers by 15.

Out in the Woods

“What we are doing to the forests of the world is but a mirror reflection of what we are doing to ourselves and to one another.”
Mahatma Gandhi

Asteroid Wood 1660
Wilderness, woods, preservation of it – pop it into your chart, see what you get.

My Wood is in Virgo trine Moon in Toro, square Sag Mars, quintile Scorp Neptune.  When I was very young the woodlands behind my home were razed. I cried the livelong day – so hard my head about popped off, I was totally freaked, pleading for them to stop.  I feel the same to this day about forests.  Cap rising, multi Virgo, Moon in Toro exalted, I’m very earthy.

John Muir, founder of The Sierra Club actively helped to preserve the Yosemite Valley, Sequoia National Park and other wilderness areas. He has been called the “Father of the National Parks,” and is considered one of the patron saints of twentieth-century American environmental activity.  John had asteroid Wood in Virgo opposite Moon and Venus in Pisces (writing of love of land, serenity found); trine Mercury; square Chiron.  John wrote extensively of forests and nature he experienced firsthand, including The Mountains of California.

In 1916 the National Park Service was founded by US President Woodrow Wilson.
Woodrow had Wood in Scorpio sextile Mercury in Capricorn (sign into law); square Venus/Mars exact conjunct in Aquarius; opposite Uranus in Taurus and trine Neptune in Pisces.

Julia Butterfly Hill spent 738 days living in the thousand-year old Redwood forest tree (she affectionately named ‘Luna’). She wrote of her tree-sitting experience in her book, The Legacy of Luna. Julia has Wood in Pisces (inspired healing) square Saturn in Gemini (writing), sextile Capricorn Venus and Toro Mars (earthy !). Wood square Saturn also indicates the fact that what she thought would be at most a three week stint turned into a two year tree sit.

More tree sitters here and here.

Dominic Monaghan (Merry, Lord of the Rings) is a passionate nature lover, has been active in the planting of trees, cacti, pod-seeds of mature hedge-row bushes – he also owns a small forest in India. Dom has asteroid Wood exact conjunct Venus in Aquarius.  He’s a bohemian Sag, happily doing the travel critter thing – you can see him soon in Wild Things with Dominic Monaghan.

May the Forest be with You

Moon in Aquarius

Venus into Sagittarius
10:38pm CST, USA
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

The Doctor.
I loOove the Doctor.  
A quirky humanitarian (Aquarius) time traveler, saving life forms, indeed – entire worlds across time and space. (Sun rules not only heroes, but also the heart – and the Doc has two; Sagittarius rules long distance travel)

He is a brilliant combo of clever geek and cheeky party crasher – game for fun, yet deadly serious when any life form is threatened.  The Doctor is packing a wealth of experience and knowledge garnered across time and space over many lifetimes, many  regenerations.

His wits are his weapon.  He refuses all firearms – only using his sonic screwdriver, ‘which does not kill, wound or maim’, and the help of loyal friends travelling with him.

Interesting bit written into the plotlines over and over again – he sometimes goes a bit Gung Ho, suffers from a God Complex and needs a stiff shot of Saturn reality check from his mates to set him straight.  The brilliant, clever Doctor also needs the help of friends.

Good friends are ruled by Venus and Aquarius.
 Moon is in eccentric Aquarius, and soon, Venus will enter Sagittarius where she will meet up with Mercury, trine Uranus in Aries while she also squares Neptune and Chiron In Pisces.  So heads UP, I’m gonna talk about LoOove baby !

Venus needs friends.
The Doctor needs his mates to pull him back from over zealous, self-righteous anger and the edge of wrath.  He needs his friends to help him SEE, to help him widen his circle of perspective.

Yesterday in comments I mentioned the planetary heart grid.  I actually think there are multiples of grids connecting us through ALL our energetic points, ie: Vishudda (throat) chakras via speech/ mass comms, the Muladhara (root) chakras via collective instincts, etc… you get the idea.

The electromagnetics of the heart are connected into the electromagnetics of the earth, the electromagnetics of all life forms on the planet.  We feel the electromagnetic connection between all life, everywhere, through the beat of our hearts.
FYI: by everywhere, I mean across time, off planet and beyond . . .

When I asked ‘how wide is your circle ?’, I was aiming to get you (and me) – thinking.
AtomBodyTownStateNationContinentHemisphere
PlanetSolarSystemGalaxyUniverseMultiverse

Who or what do you let into your circle ?
Into your heart ?
This is the glyph for Sun.  Sun rules the heart, the number
ONE.
What I am saying is we are ALL IN THE SAME CIRCLE.

I am in yours, you are in mine.  We are in a soul contract, all earthkind HERE and NOW are working together to LEARN and GROW.  In fact, everything everywhere is in one big ginormous contract, to be honest.  We need each other – each and every one – we are in a global symbiotic relationship.  I almost wrote symbionic, which oddly enough, is a true mistake. Working together, we are better, stronger, faster.

CO – EXIST

Venus needs friends.

Venus needs friends to pull her back from the edge, to lift her up and give her love and compassion in order for her to gain equilibrium and peace of mind.  All life on this planet is both capable of loving and in need of love – those that are seemingly devoid of love need it the most, for how else will they heal if not through love ?
Hate does not heal – love heals.
We are all in the same circle.
::::::::::::::::::::::
Fire signs are the courageous leaders of the zodiac, people often turn to them for answers in troubled times.  Those with strong Jupiter or Sagittarius energy are also sought for answers, for they SEE farther, they are the sign of higher mind.

I got news for you, we don’t have all the answers either.  I asked the whole world for an answer one sunny afternoon a coon’s age ago . . .and got a plethora of answers, all from different eyes, but the Same Heart Place.

Ultimately there is only ONE answer.
Love.

Venus is personal love while Neptune is her higher octave, spiritual compassion.
High qi Neptune is the light bearer for the spiritual Sun, she will raise human perceptions to the divine.
She is a LOVE of LIFE, a HEALING HOPE for ALL to THRIVE in HARMONY.
She teaches the art of letting go . . . the art of going with the flow of each moment as it unfolds.  Birth, life, death and re-birth, it is the way.  Love transcends all these stages of energy, all times, all places . . . love transcends all boundaries.

::: Let us have love and more love; a love that melts all opposition, a love that conquers all foes, a love that sweeps away all barriers, a love that aboundeth in charity, a large-heartedness, tolerance, forgiveness, and noble striving, a love that triumphs over all obstacles :::
Abdul Baha

peace be with you

Before this reading, I was thinking of how Uranus skips steps. 
Mercury gets from A to C through B; Uranus skips straight to C.

This is why Uranus KNOWS but often can’t tell you why it knows.  It’s that mysterious skipped step that throws people when Uranians shoot genius from the hip.

It defies logic; yet is simultaneously, completely logical.

It is this skipped step in space / time that I am peering into with this reading.
Intent being clarity and most benevolent outcome for all my readers.

25 Discontinuous Proportion (reversed) Dependence
Your personal patterns are presently closely interrelating and connected to the patterns of others – some of which you are unaware of.

Many factors are involved which may not SEEM relevant, but ARE relevant.  Something small and seemingly unimportant is actually THE KEY to the solution.

:::::::::::::::::::::
This Uranus in a nutshell – seeing both sides, polarities – the MICRO and the MACRO – the FINITE and the INFINITE – all present in the glimmer of a nanosecond.  
Branches within branches within branches. . .the golden mean spirals inward / outward.

4 The Circle: Continuity (spirit card, crux of the sitch)

Use what you’ve already got.  It is time to work within the boundaries you have set and nourish the growth living within them.  Tend to the patterns close to you, nourish them – the seeds that will lead to your heart’s desire are already planted and growing… now is the time to nurture your inner circle.
::::::::::::::::::::::::

ALL ONE.
How wide are your circles ?  
Being strongly Uranian, I KNOW we ARE ALL CONNECTED energetically through The Force.

I think GLOBALLY, in terms of EARTHKIND and my SPIRITUALITY is INFINITE, not caged into a ‘religion’.

That said, I choose my inner circle, be you near or far.  

Uranians can find you at any distance – your energetic signature is entirely unique.
We can intuitively connect in the blink of an eye; in the beat of a heart.

Those I LOVE – you KNOW who you are.
Near or far, you are IN.
Always.

Ravi.
Amazing musician, virtuoso sitar player, so blessed to have heard him play…

Ravi had Aries Sun trine Jupiter / Neptune conjunction in creative Leo.  Mercury conjunct Venus (Venus is exalted in Pisces) trine Moon which trines Jupiter/ Neptune.
 Life of fame – Sun trine Neptune conjunct Jupiter in Leo.

Mars in Scorpio, Pluto in Cancer and Uranus in Pisces form a grand water trine – Uranus opposite Saturn in Virgo forms the apex of a kite.  Obviously, Ravi has earned his place in history (Saturn) as a groundbreaking, visionary musical genius. (Uranus in Pisces)  Mars in Scorpio (trine Pluto) is super intense, hot to trot for deep musical transcendent experiences (esp. with North Node in Scorp as well), Uranus in Pisces blazes new trails across musical frontiers.

Ravi, interestingly had no planets in air signs – he let his music do the talking. 

Moon is also the apex of a T-square with Virgo Saturn and Uranus in Pisces.  Emotional T-square tension dissolved by tapping the wellsprings of boho creativity – writing and healing through music.
