INFORMATION FOR ALL THE SIGNS
This is a huge month astrologically as The Planet Of Tedious Hard Work And Facts You Didn’t Want Shoved Up Your Nose – aka Saturn – finally changes signs. For one thing this give a break to Aries and Librans. For another it now supports Cancerians, Virgos, Capricorns and Pisceans. For Scorpios and Taureans, it has to be said, you are in the direct line of Saturn’s fire. More in a minute about why this can be a good thing, despite what you have probably read! And if you’re name isn’t on any of those lists, don’t panic. Sometimes it’s better to go unnoticed by Saturn!
Saturn is the planet who is also known as The Lord of Karma. What we reap, we shall sow. He’s the menacing planet who reminds us to be good unless we want coal in our Christmas stocking. He’s the mean head teacher who raps our knuckles. He’s the planet who grimly reminds us that we don’t have forever.
So as you can imagine, he is not the most fun you can have. He’s reality, hard facts and lessons. He’s also the planet who says “Get real”. It’s thanks to Saturn that we learn our lessons and our lives improve. When he’s tough, he’s very, very tough. And when he’s nice? He’s useful.
Saturn, for example, is the planet who commits. That doesn’t sound very exciting but what is a marriage or a business arrangement or a friendship without a bit of commitment. He’s the planet who helps us to stay strong and to see how hard work can lead to security and stability. Again, that doesn’t sound very exciting and in all truth, Saturn is the least barrel of laughs planet of all.
But Saturn is rock solid and he does keep his promises. He is moving into Scorpio this month which means he’s affecting us all in a very different way to the way he’s been affecting us for the past three years. Here’s how…
SATURN NEWS for your sign…
How’s your love life? Saturn is now in your love zone for a while. Yes, Saturn is the one of the more-difficult-to-deal-with planets, but he teaches lessons and lessons are what helps us to evolve, no? But let’s also be astro-frank. Does your relationship feel turgid, confining, restrictive or controlling? If you can answer yes to any of these, Saturn moving into your opposite sign could easily see that relationship off. If that’s the case, you might be scared to let go of the relationship, even though you know it’s for the best. On the one hand, clinging on won’t help matters, while on the other, it ain’t over til it’s over. But Saturn isn’t just a big demolishing machine. If your relationship is strong and good, his presence in your solar love zone could be what you need to make a commitment to your beloved, because Saturn is all about doing the distance. He is also responsibilities and now as he goes across the part of your skies which is opposite your Sun, you may feel you are being asked to grow up. Is that a bad thing? Of course, staying young and carefree has its place, but Saturn asks us to at least allow the adult part of us some quality time most days. He sometimes will throw obstacles and hurdles in our way. These come in the form of challenges, self-doubt or fear. For many of you this year, that will be about issues in your love life. If you feel that there’s not enough love to go around, hang in there. If you’re in a relationship that is being tested, think cooly and logically, but not coldly. What you are creating now could be something enduring and strong. Saturn won’t teach you lessons you don’t need to learn and the problems he causes will highlight flaws that need to be given some attention. He can, and sometimes does, cause people to be a little inhibited though, so guard against that. This is a good time to tap into your drive to succeed, so don’t sequester yourself away more than you need to.
MEANWHILE SEXY MARS IS CHANGING SIGNS, MOVING INTO SADGE… Here’s what you can expect, as of October 7.
Sex. Passion. Intimacy. Cash. What you are not allowed to do. All these are the domains of the 8th house. Now you have super busy Mars in there, stirring up these areas of your life. Having Mars in the 8th house can do wonders for your sex life – certainly your libido should be higher. However, Mars is also an argumentative so and so and in this part of your chart, he can cause arguments about sex or with your partner (or ex) about cash. Best advice – enjoy the heat of Mars in your sex zone. Promise yourself not to argue about cash.
FINALLY, A MYSTICAL MESSAGE FOR YOU – I drew a Goddess Card for each sign. If you’re reading this, you need this message! Your message is: “Your independence is a foundation for your strength and success!”
