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.

During our lives, we will go through huge trends of what we consider ups and downs.  There are no avoiding life’s obstacles, and at other times the easy flow is certainly a part of our ongoing experience. 

 

We must find ways to safely conquer harsh lessons learned from experience and to take advantage of what life is offering.

 

We learn to bend and adjust to life’s situations, or we become victims of circumstance. 

 

We also need to know when it is right to move ahead with our objectives and when to wait for the appropriate energy to come our way.

 

Experience will teach us when to be rubber and when to be steel. We will also learn that adversity and hard times are our greatest teachers.  When life runs smoothly, we learn to go with the flow and to be appreciative of what life provides.  It is always in our hands as to how we maneuver through life. Attitude is the key to any life situation.
Rubber and Steel

We can and should become like rubber bending when we need to, or we become like steel unable to or unwilling to adjust when adjustment is necessary. 

 

We can learn that life will be much easier to handle when we go with the flow and at the same time stand up and fight when it is called for it.  There is a time when we need to remain steadfast in our approach and be like steel, and there is a time when we need to adjust to life’s situations and bend like rubber.  The challenge is knowing which one to be, rubber or steel, at the moment to obtain the best results.

 

Experience will teach us when to be rubber and when to be steel. We will also learn that adversity and hard times are our greatest teachers.  When life runs smoothly, we learn to go with the flow and to be appreciative of what life provides.  It is always in our hands as to how we maneuver through life.

We are ready for change on some level, or change would not have presented itself.  Have faith in the process and know when to hold on and when to let go. You WILL go where you need to go.
When to Hold On and When to Let Go

Every now and again we seem to come to a turning point in our lives and need to make choices. Do we continue on the path we are on, or do we move ahead in a new and often unknown direction.  We know that these decisions should not be taken lightly if the consequences can be life changing.

 

The choices we make at these crossroads can have profound impacts on our lives and sometimes the decisions can make us feel rather uncomfortable, yet on some level we have been guided to these crossroads in life.

 

We can wabble back and forth and after much deliberation, we make a decision.  We don’t know what the future holds regardless of whether we make a change or not. This can be frightening.  We venture forth nonetheless because the time is right and likely change is needed.

 

Although we do not know where life will now take us, there is something within us that confirms we are on the right path. We always go where we are meant to go, so we have to have some faith in the process and our journey. 

 

These crossroads may not come often, which is a blessing in many cases, and although we are uncertain as to where that might lead us, destiny’s gate is now open. 

 

We are ready for change on some level, or change would not have presented itself. 

 

Have faith in the process and know when to hold on and when to let go. You WILL go where you need to go.

It is important to note that when transiting Saturn is making a conjunction to the North Node it is also making an opposition to the South Node.  The nodes are always 180° apart. 

 

Saturn while in transit and in the natal chart (unless very favorably aspected by other natal positions) quite often speaks of challenging situations.  The timing seems off when we are attempting to move ahead with our lives.  Things seem to move too slowly, and we often have obstacles to overcome along the way.  Our objectives seem to be met with delays, and it seems to take a lot of work and a sustained effort just to move to the next step in our objectives.

 

Saturn in the natal chart often describes an area we need to work on.  There are difficulties with our conversations or the way we communicate (3rd house), we find it challenging when it comes to relationships and they are often held up in some manner or delayed (7th house), our friendships or hopes and dreams and our association with groups seem to require a lot of work (11th house), etc.  This is the natal positioning but is also representative to where transiting Saturn is located while moving through the natal chart.

 

Saturn conjunct natal north node will certainly have created havoc with our plans for our life’s path but it will have helped us build a solid foundation and with the right amount of sustained effort, it helps us along the way.  Saturn is the teacher of the Zodiac and can provide great results as long as we are willing to do the work required.
Saturn Conjunct Natal North Node

When transiting Saturn conjuncts our North Node (Life’s path forward) and makes an opposition to our South Node (a past life or early situations in our life), life will not move the way we want it to.  We might have a lot of work to do when it comes to our North Node and others seem to stand in the way or cause us strife when we are speaking of the South Node.

 

The North Node speaks directly of our path in this life and although this road is foreign to us, we are meant to pursue it regardless.  When Saturn conjuncts the North Node, wherever we place our goals to move towards in life is thwarted and obstacles seem to present themselves holding us up or not allowing us to move in the intended direction.  We can feel frustrated because others seem to slow us down or stand in the way or tell us that they know better and we should perhaps do what they say.  The house position of our North Node will define clearly what area of life is involved in this situation.

 

This energy may last as long as 6 months and if Saturn goes into retrograde, it will last even longer, although while in retrograde we may find that there is less restriction and things move along better.  Saturn in retrograde works much better than while it is in direct motion, unlike most of the other planets. 

 

Knowing how Astrology can be applied to our lives can have a direct effect on when we move ahead and when we decide to stand back and wait.  This certainly does not mean that we are at the mercy of fate and that Astrology will dictate as we always have freedom of choice. We may find solace and solutions however when we understand the workings of the universe and have an understanding of the science of Astrology.

 

Saturn conjunct natal north node will certainly have created havoc with our plans for our life’s path but it will have helped us build a solid foundation and with the right amount of sustained effort, it helps us along the way.  Saturn is the teacher of the Zodiac and can provide great results as long as we are willing to do the work required.
