Tis the day of Saturn energy -- Happy Saturday. Saturn is known as the greater malefic. Saturn will cause blockages, delays, incite fear of lack and lack itself, Saturn is the planet of pain and (with Pluto) death and sorrow and sickness and slavery....
Oh, and organization, responsibility, hard work (and the benefits thereof), longevity, integrity of structure -- and standing the test of time.
Benevolent, no -- but without Saturn, Jupiter takes us spinning through the galaxies full of hot air and no ground to stand on.
Saturn is attributed to Binah -- She who gives form. Her number is three, the triangle being the first form, preceded only by the dot and the line. She is the Great Mother. She births all things. And once born, the ne being is subject to all that great list of terrors listed above -- hence the newborn cries.
But Saturn is here, does demand that you follow the rules or suffer the consequences, ensures that if you don't work, you don't eat and allows you the freedom Jupiter inspires only if you remember to pack a lunch.
Right now (since December 2020), Saturn is in Aquarius and will remain until March 2023. Look to the house in your chart ruled by Aquarius and you'll find Saturn hard at work making things hard. Saturn puts anything faster moving than itself to work --that includes Jupiter, Mars, Venus, Mercury, Moon and Sun.
You'll also want to check out your own natal Saturn and see what aspect transiting Saturn in Aquarius is making -- as transiting Saturn always checks in on its own status. Pay special attention if your Saturn is in one of the FIXED signs (Aquarius/Leo, Taurus/Scorpio). You'll want to take note of other planets you have in these signs, as well. They are getting Saturn's kick in the motivation at this time. Look especially for anything near 17 degrees of the fixed signs.
In the sky right now, Saturn at 17 degrees Aquarius is influencing Mercury at 13 degrees (with a 4 degree orb). Saturn always puts any nearby planet to work. This is the Bossman. He noticed Mercury has recently had a vacation and went into hibernation (retrograde) and is now leaning on the Messenger to work harder. Saturn wants Mercury to get organized, get all communication caught up, put the files in order, get rid of things that are outdated, get his taxes done, and use his grown-up voice by speaking with authority.
It's a good time to get all Mercury-related things (3rd house and 5th house -- or Gemini house and Virgo house) in order.
Don't fear Saturn, but make sure your bones are strong.
