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. 

 

If you do not find what you are looking for on this Blog page, please visit www.holmastrology.blogspot.com/ where you will find our missing blog posts.  There are over 2,660 posts pre September, 2023.

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

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.

When is the timing right? Have no regrets because of anxiety and fear that resulted in no action.  Push through adversity and know that whatever decision you make, it was the right one, no matter how it might look in the present moment.
Timing

How do we know when the timing is right to move ahead or change direction? 

 

Are we ready for action or change? 

 

How will our action affect us? 

 

These are some of the questions we ask ourselves when we are planning.

 

We may hesitate because of our mind’s chatter, or we may hold back because of fear and anxiety.  These unfortunately can cause missed opportunities. 

 

So then, what guides us and how do we know if we should advance? 

 

Quite often we get what is referred to as “gut feeling or instinct”.  There is a part of us that knows whether or not we should do what we are about to do.  Sometimes we listen to this advice, and sometimes we ignore it.

 

This is not to say that we don’t do our due diligence.  That is the first step when we decide to move forward with a plan.

 

There will likely come a time when we look back and say to ourselves “I regret not taking that step”, or “am I ever glad that I listened to my gut instinct and worked towards my goal”. 

 

There will often be worries or concerns about actions taken, but if we sit back and never follow through, we will never know what could have been.  Fear is our greatest enemy and gut instinct is our greatest supporter.  We must learn to differentiate between the two.

 

Sometimes things just fall into place and sometimes we need to assert ourselves and work diligently towards that result we seek.  Have no regrets because of anxiety and fear that resulted in no action.  Push through adversity and know that whatever decision you make, it was the right one, no matter how it might look in the present moment. 

 

You always move in the intended direction.  What we consider a mistake is actually an experience teaching us a valuable lesson. 

 

Advice from others can assist, but ultimately, you make the final decision, so you take responsibility and the action.

 

How do we know when to act?

 

When is the timing right?

 

Now is the time to act. Don’t let fear stand in your way!

Life is a continual lesson, a continual current of change. We have gained inner strength particularly in the darkest moments.  This is a test of resilience.  A test of faith in others and ourselves.
Current of Change

There is much uncertainty in life. We really don’t know where we are headed, yet we can always hold our heads high and make our way through the currents of change presented to us daily.

 

Life moves us along with or without our approval.  We juggle our objectives and set courses for the road ahead without really knowing where that road might take us.

 

Our objectives are likely feasible and attainable, yet it is okay to reach for higher goals as the higher we aim the higher we can reach. 

 

You may question what is the purpose for striving to achieve or to pushi ahead in life. After all, life is uncertain.

 

It is human nature to need goals and objectives to strive for as it gives us tangible purpose.

 

We learn perseverance in dealing with the different climates life presents us with and need to be adaptable as we coming to terms with where life is taking us.  We find solace in those that provide support and tell us to hang on. We maneuver our way forward and we learn to listen to the advice of our inner voice and those who care about us.  We will learn to walk with our heads high through difficulties and we gain immensely through adversity.

 

There certainly will be times when life smiles at us and we must remind ourselves to relax and enjoy these times.

 

Life is a continual lesson, a continual current of change. We have gained inner strength particularly in the darkest moments.  This is a test of resilience.  A test of faith in others and ourselves. 

 

Count your blessings and acknowledge your accomplishments.  Believe in yourself.  Listen to advice and know that you are never alone. You can depend on life teaching you whatever you need to know and then moving you in the right direction, always!
