SOCIAL CONDITIONING

We are taught throughout our life, but especially at an early age, how to behave.  We learn primarily from our parents or primary care givers and gain more insight as we begin to mature into ourselves, which takes a lifetime.  We learn how to adapt to life’s situations often taught through experience.  We learn how to manage or overcome adversity.  We learn about love and affection, hopefully beginning at an early age with our parents and once we have learned to love ourselves, we learn how to share our love with those around us.

Social conditioning

We become conditioned to react or respond depending on our upbringing and self-study.

We can be dictated to by our peers and others.  We may sometimes wonder if we are just puppets interacting the way we should without our consent.  Are we supposed to behave this way or that way, or is this just what we have become accustomed to doing? 

We may follow advice but, in many cases, the best advice comes from within, that little voice within which we all hear but not often listen to.

We are not suggesting that we fight the advice we are given, but as adults, we should now be in a state of knowing of what is right and wrong. We can make up our own minds without the chatter from others.  Authority figures are not always right, but they are worth listening to if they are teaching from experience.  Many have had years of experience and can guide us in the appropriate direction.  Ultimately, however, the final decision is ours personally.

Do we follow along blindly or make our own decisions?

If we fall, we can always get back on our feet and learn from the experience.  These are the greatest life lessons.

In reality, we walk our own road, follow our own personal path, make our own decisions regardless of what other people have pushed on us. It is always up to us to make that final decision if we have the maturity to stop and question.

Life is the learning tool that we all share. We do not walk this road alone, although as mentioned, we walk our own road.  We should listen and then contemplate our own decisions (eliminating reaction) no matter what our social conditioning.  Follow your hearts and the advice that echoes within. 

Enjoy the passage, learn from life and all its teachings, share your knowledge with those that want to listen and live the life that suits your journey.

SATURN SEXTILE NATAL MIDHEAVEN

As transiting Saturn moves through the Zodiac, it challenges us, it teaches us valuable life lessons and then tests us.  Things may not move along as you might want them to, taking longer to reach goals or to get action.

Transiting Saturn Sextile Natal Midheaven

With transiting Saturn sextile natal MC (Midheaven or Medium Coeli), the energies and lessons are often directly related to your career, your life’s status, your goals and aspirations.

Although the Sextile (a 60° aspect) is considered a favorable aspect, it still requires work because of Saturn’s connection, and it requires dedication and continued effort from you.  You must be reliable, steady, structured in your approach, although the working environment or your career might be subject to some challenging conditions.  This may affect your status in life as some individuals will find this energy difficult; and because of this, it can put strain on any partnerships that have been formed, especially with the spouse.

There may be setbacks with goals until Saturn is outside its influence on your MC, (which is approximately 4° separating).  Saturn is often at its peak when it has passed the natal position which in this case will be your MC by 2°.  No other planet has this delayed effect, and other planets will be at their peak when direct.

With Saturn sextile natal Midheaven, there is a potential opportunity although it will take more work than might be expected. Keep an open mind, with a positive attitude, and over time things can work out favorably. You must make this happen, however, as it will not happen by itself.  Persistence, patience, learning lessons of significance and perseverance are necessary to make this work in your favor. 

Do not give up even though things seem not to be working the way you want them to work. Over time, the results will prove to be beneficial to you in some manner.  A positive perspective is a requirement.

LEADERSHIP

Leadership

What makes for good leadership? 

Are personality, looks, education, experience, and/or respect important qualities for a leader?

The qualities of a leader are varying in importance by each person you ask. Two repeated qualities are “reliability”, and “honesty”. 

We need to count on our leaders, in whatever role they play, to provide us with truth and to stand by their commitments under all conditions. 

We do not necessarily have to like a leader’s personality although it certainly helps. 

In my opinion, any leader should have compassion, be understanding, have patience and listen to advice.  An open mind allows for growth.

Are Looks and styles important?  They shouldn’t be.

Does a leader need to be respected and admired?  Admiration is not required but respect is crucial.

Are there many leaders that fit this criteria? 

There are varying levels of leadership. It is hard to generalize an answer. There are those that rise to the top and receive respect which they have earned through their actions.  Those respected leaders have the good of those they lead in mind whatever the leading role may be.

Are you a leader of a family team, work team, social group, provincial/state, or more? How are your leadership abilities?

A good leader listens before making decisions to ensure the best outcome for all involved. Their decisions can have profound effects.  What does good leadership mean to you?
