Holm Astrology has been creating "Astrology" and "Food For Thought" posts for over 10 years.  Wix has taken over the Vista Print websites and as a result of the migration of our information, a large portion of our blog posts are currently lost. 

 

We realize our Astrology posts are vital to our students.

We apologize for the inconvenience but it is worth the jump over to our blogspot.


In the recent past, we posted information transiting Saturn in Opposition to Natal Uranus. Here’s a link for your convenience. 




There are no half measures about what is taking hold under this aspect but stay strong and persevere. This too will pass, and a new life situation is materializing as we work our way through some of the life lessons that are being presented. Remember, Saturn is the teacher but also the disciplinarian.  Saturn Opposition natal Pluto present hard times and events often out of our hands. Let go of what was, and prepare for what’s to come which, over time, will prove to be necessary.
Saturn Opposition Natal Pluto

Today, we will focus on transiting Saturn’s Opposition Natal Pluto and will use Pluto in Libra as our example. This would affect Gen X and some early Millennials (1971 to 1984).  Pluto did slip back into Virgo and ahead into Scorpio temporarily during this time frame, however.  Check the ephemeris to confirm if your Pluto is in Libra. 

 

The energy of Uranus often brings sudden and unexpected changes into our lives.  Pluto is similar but, in most cases, it is not so sudden in its nature, and the changes it brings are not unexpected.  Pluto often depicts a complete and total change, while Uranus suggests a change is needed but the change brought on by Uranus do not have to be a total change as it is with Pluto.  Pluto is much more dynamic in its expression and often creates turmoil and chaos while initiating the change that is required.  Change either by Uranus or Pluto is always requirement.

 

Pluto’s influence is often out of our hands, and we will need to learn to go with the flow rather than fight what is taking place in our lives.  With Saturn as part of the picture, Pluto says that what once was must now be in the rearview mirror. Change will take place no matter how much we fight the process. 

 

Rarely will Pluto let things lie, unless the changes that are coming into force correlate on some level with what is already in place.  This is extremely rare and when Pluto is active, we must learn to adapt. It is important to acknowledge that this new path is not only necessary, but also mandatory.

 

If we use the same houses as examples as we did in our Saturn Opposition Natal Uranus post (Transiting Saturn in the first house and Natal Pluto in the seventh), we can expect almost with certainty that the relationship is not working as it is now.  In many cases, the recent struggles that are being experienced especially if Saturn is sitting on or just into the first house (meaning that Pluto is near the seventh house cusp), the challenge although certainly involving you is set in motion by the partner or someone related or impacted by the partner.  This is not to say that the relationship is destroyed, but it is most certainly in turmoil, and the issues need to be addressed.  Work needs to be done in an impactful manner.  Watch for disagreements and arguments, and in some cases violence.  The energies of Pluto are being impacted by Saturn, which can be quite destructive and painful to the ego.

 

There are no half measures about what is taking hold under this aspect but stay strong and persevere. This too will pass, and a new life situation is materializing as we work our way through some of the life lessons that are being presented. Remember, Saturn is the teacher but also the disciplinarian.  Saturn Opposition natal Pluto present hard times and events often out of our hands. Let go of what was, and prepare for what’s to come which, over time, will prove to be necessary.

Jupiter, while in transit moving through each sign (which takes about one year), will at some point make a Sextile to your Natal Saturn.  The natal aspects to Saturn in the birth chart will have great importance with this placement.  If Natal Saturn is poorly aspected, this placement of Jupiter will not be as simple a lesson as it would be if Saturn were well aspected natally.

 

Saturn in the birth chart speaks directly of the area of life that is challenged in some way.  Even a well-aspected Natal Saturn still represents an area of concern, and hard work is often indicated.  Some struggles can be anticipated but with certainty and a positive attitude things can work well for you if you apply yourself in whatever direction is required.  Saturn is the teacher/the disciplinarian of the zodiac and suggests that we need to work for our rewards in life.

 

Transiting Jupiter tends to bring easy flow and opportunities when it touches our natal planetary positions and angles.  Natal Jupiter’s position is an area of growth and opportunity.  You must integrate the natal potential with all transiting aspects but particularly when dealing with Saturn and Jupiter together.  Jupiter expands and builds potential, while Saturn restricts and delays the opportunities at hand, creating some structural obstacles that need to be rectified and worked through.  Structures often refer to our attitude and beliefs as well as challenges found within the environment itself.

 

Sextiles are similar to Trines in that they can help with situations, bring opportunities and add to the overall picture in a favorable manner.  The difference is that we must engage ourselves to reap rewards with Sextiles although sometimes things may just fall into our lap. This may happen if Saturn were well aspected in the Natal chart or if there were other indicators within the aspects through transiting planets moving through the natal chart.  It is always suggested, however, with a Sextile that we participate in the process to achieve the best possible results.

 


Jupiter sextile natal Saturn offers an opportunity to overcome barriers or learn life lessons created by Saturn more easily if you put forth a little effort or do a little planning. Don’t waste the opportunity when this aspect unfolds in your chart.

With Jupiter sextile Natal Saturn, Jupiter might offer a change if it is required at the time, but Saturn will resist and put obstacles in the way so that it is not an easy route to follow.  With Jupiter, however, we have the opportunity to rise above Saturn’s restrictions and formulate a plan that moves us forward in our evolutionary journey. 

 

The houses involved in your chart will tell the story of the areas of life involved and the other aspects taking hold at the same time will either assist or hinder the situation.  If the sextile between Jupiter and Saturn is the only aspect in place, the energies may not be that recognizable or may not cause much disruption.

 

Remember, Astrology always provides information on the overall picture of what is unfolding in your life at the moment.

 

In summary, Jupiter sextile natal Saturn offers an opportunity to overcome barriers or learn life lessons created by Saturn more easily if you put forth a little effort or do a little planning. Don’t waste the opportunity when this aspect unfolds in your chart.

Saturn, by definition, often speaks of challenging conditions, tasks at hand, lessons to learn, discipline, creating organization and building a strong foundation. 

 

As Saturn transits through the houses, especially when it connects with the planets or the cusp of each house, it is often felt as an integrating energy that asks us to pay attention and often requires additional work.  Saturn’s influence is not something that should be ignored and is felt especially when it conjuncts a planet or angle in our birth chart.

 

Saturn, at its most powerful, often interacts when it is 2° past being direct because of its delayed effects.  However, you will likely feel Saturn’s approach long before it reaches this critical degree of influence.  Therefore, we can prepare for its influence, but it is highly suggested that you not anticipate its action as negativity can result. 

 

Saturn is the teacher of the Zodiac, and this is what it will do.  Its action sparks our attention and when transiting Saturn is in square to itself in the birth chart (which is what we are focused on in this article) our attentiveness will be enhanced.

 

Saturn asks us to work hard towards our objectives and not to miss any steps along the way.  It will teach us patience and diligence. If we do the work that is required, its energies can help build solid foundations that stand the test of time.  The structures that can be built can withstand almost any interaction because they are built from structure and lessons that are likely difficult and do not need repeating.

 

Much will depend on the houses involved in the equation.  The house where Saturn transits often produce tension or lessons and the house where Saturn natally resides helps in assisting with the dilemma.  Squares indicate struggle, but the difficulty is irritating enough that it forces us into action to formulate a plan to alleviate the irritation. Natal Saturn and its natal positioning in the birth chart will provide you with more information and information on potential difficulty or greater ease for transition due to its aspects.

 

When Saturn in transit forms a square with natal Saturn, it initiates a significant phase of teaching and learning. While Saturn symbolizes hardship, it also fosters resilience & inner strength. Individuals may not realize the depths of their fortitude until Saturn compels them to face such lessons. Indeed, Saturn is the ultimate teacher.
Saturn Square Natal Saturn

When transiting Saturn squares natal Saturn, there will be a teaching/learning phase.  You will work your way through what Saturn’s energies are pushing at you and become more equipped to handle situations in the future.  Difficulties are represented by Saturn, but Saturn also builds resilience and integrates strength.  Many may not even realize they have this strength until Saturn forces the lesson on them.  Saturn truly is the teacher.
