In Alan Leo’s three Saturn types of man, I found myself reflected in all of them (highest to lowest) (I have Saturn Rising opposed to my Sun). See what types best fits you: No.1 Shows the studious brow and the thoughtful face giving the impression of a man who reflects upon what he observes, and who is given to contemplation upon all he has learned, seeking to link his knowledge with unseen causes. This is the scientific and philosophical type…...
Question: I seem to be losing weight quite quickly recently. For a few years, I’ve always remained around 12 and a half stone, now I’m under 11 stone, and I seem to still be losing weight. Are there typical transits responsible for this kind of thing? Here is when you love Saturn and Pluto transits, especially when you want to achieve a goal or become more disciplined or get into the best shape of your life and have a drastic…...
Question: What is it about Sun-Saturn stress aspects (in particular) that resonate with such pain? One of my favorite famous examples of how Sun-Saturn (a very stressful and oppressing aspect) can manifest is Billy Corgan. Billy is the lead singer of the alt-rock group Smashing Pumpkins. Billy has attested that he suffered such intense abuse at the hand of his father that he would contemplate suicide and self-injure growing up. Sun-Saturn usually exemplifies paternal pain. Sun-Saturn in the charts of…...
As soon as this lockdown is over I’m dealing with the social anxiety that I’ve had for as long as I can remember. It is where there is intense fear in most social situations and intense fear of the judgment of others. First, however, I have to deal with my constant protector – Saturn. Some of you may think of Saturn as a great protective father sheltering you from pain. The longer it goes on, however, you start to feel…...
Question: Today I am planning to go back to the bookshelf to Linda Goodman about Capricorns. Since I am getting negative vibes from inside and out about Capricornians and Saturnians. My area of doubt begins with the very basic question: Are they perceived as less loveable? Generally, it’s difficult to appreciate their controlled nature, lack of spontaneity and their restraints, measured responses, their long, grim face touching ground level. Any thoughts? I supposed it is each to their own, but…...
With Saturn, you do well when you learn about the difference between an inner scorecard and an outer scorecard. It’s how you evaluate yourself that matters than judgment from the outside world. Others’ opinions are far less significant than you think. Others’ responses to changes in your prestige, reputation and appearance don’t influence your life, but often your Saturnian energy is too much attuned to praise or critique. A great sense of freedom is gained when you stop getting stressed…...
Sun-Saturn on the birth chart is one of the most powerful symbols of your isolation and alienation in the form of matter. It can feel like there’s nobody to turn towards, no comfort, no friendly faces of acceptance. No acknowledgment of your milestones, as if to say you are not important. You say to yourself, “Am I being too sensitive? Would this hurt anybody else or would they just say “Eff ’em..whatever.” You experience anxiety over being somehow deficient,…...
Question: My first return (Saturn is in my 7th house) brought me my husband and the most committed relationship of my life. I should say relationships, because ultimately it brought my daughter. Hooking up with him did change my life considerably, and led to parenthood which has taken up most of my Saturn cycle. It was basically joyous! However, it is a time when you complete dharma, I think, and shed your skin to become your next phase. Any thoughts?…...
Question: If Saturn is “glue”, then Saturn ought to be the “deepest” planet and thus confirming that Saturnine/Capricorn humans are as, if not more, deep as Plutionian/Scorpio humans. Any thoughts? Saturn is one of the most complex archetypes in the astrological chart, it is darkness, doom, and delayed gratification. Many of those influenced powerfully by Saturn lay like prisoners in the mythical Tartarus, locked up in chains of isolation, and feel like they are in a dark reality at the…...
How can some astrologers call Saturn malefic when it is so beautiful to look at. Its rings have always suggested there is something golden about this planet. In the article below on The Greater Malefic by Prier Wintle, he does not take the view of most modern astrologers and percieves Saturn as the main cause for the real troubles in our lives, and then proceeds to get “real” about Saturn. The founders of astrology characterized Mars as the Lesser Malefic…...
