Saturn in Aquarius

A shift of importance has happened in the cosmos, which is that Saturn has entered Aquarius. It hasn't been in Aquarius since the beginning of 1994. Some of us haven't seen it here for awhile, some not at all. For some not since they were born (like me, hello Saturn Return!) Saturn will be giving us a peek into what it's like in Aquarius, but it will retrograde back into Capricorn in July though the 1st half of December. Then later in December it will be there to stay till March 2023. 

Saturn has been in it's ruling sign of Capricorn. A very serious, structured, practical placement. Saturn there went through a lot. It met up with Pluto in January, something that hadn't happened for 500 years. This was all about old structures falling away. Traditions falling away and building the new. I totally believe what we're currently going through is part of this. Saturn will need to revisit some of this later on. A check up, so to speak to see how that's all doing. Now Saturn in Aquarius is starting to show us a new way. Aquarius is out of the box energy. It's futuristic. It's free. It's time to step into a new way of doing things. New structures. The future is now. Saturn in Capricorn was restricted and we could have felt that in some aspect of our lives, but we are being shown that we need to have a new way of doing things. The old ways were restrictive and need to go. Saturn and Aquarius are an interesting combo because it's about structure, yet freedom. Structures that promote greater freedom. Typical control and structure won't work well anymore. This is a placement where we may not like being told what to do. This is a placement that asks us what kind of structures are the best for humanity, for everyone, the community, the planet etc. Aquarius is about caring for it all. Our structures will have to take this into account now. We're building new structures that are more supportive. 

People are not quite sure when the Age of Aquarius starts, but we are around it at least. If it's not already here, we're entering it. Basically that will be a new 2,000 year cycle. It means that in the spring (in the northern hemisphere) the Sun when it enters Aries will align with the constellation of Aquarius. It's hard to tell whether it's in Pisces still or Aquarius now, but regardless of this Saturn in Aquarius is helping us usher in this new age. This age that's about equality and caring for everyone. The age of technology as well. Yet it can also be emotionally detached, so we must look out for that. This time period of social distancing is so funny cause it's so Saturn in Aquarius. We're connecting to each other more in a way using technology, but we're detached. Now this works during this virus, but I would be really careful of getting too detached overall though now. Everyone talks about the benefits of the Age of Aquarius without talking about how detached we could all get from each other however. 

Saturn actually was the original ruler of Aquarius, so it is a strong placement, but when Uranus was discovered, it became the ruler of Aquarius. Think of Uranus as an important part of this transit. Shakeups, change and chaos are an important part of restructuring right now. Uranus will be Taurus for the whole of Saturn's transit through Aquarius. Taurus represents a stable foundation and with this transit all of our foundations are being shaken up. Some things especially changing can be finances, food, agriculture and the earth. These changes may be part of this new structure with Uranus in Taurus ruling Saturn in Aquarius. 

~It's exciting to see Saturn entering a new sign and this one looks promising in these current times. Let's see how it all plays out! ~
