Saturn Goes Direct in Aquarius
Today, Saturn, the Lord of Karma and ruler over structures, authority, roles and responsibilities goes goes direct in Aquarius after 5 months of being retrograde. This major, heavy-hitting planet embodies the military Grandfather energy; strict, hardworking, tough love, all about working hard and taking your time to perfect your craft, the authority figure, and delegator of life lessons.
While Saturn was retrograde we had to do the work within to recognize where old systems of beliefs, old patterns of behaviours, and old relationships and ideas were no longer strong enough to house the new dreams, visions, and goals, we now have. Retrograde season is a time to reflect, revisit, revise, and review our lives to cut out anything that is not helping us build towards our best selves.
Now that Saturn is going direct, we’'ll be able to take the energy and move it outward in our external lives making changes and taking actions that will destroy the old, free us from the past, and set us up to build some long term foundations we can actually build off of.
If you are hiding being an illusion of your life, an unauthentic mask of who you are, and holding onto old outdated beliefs and structures that aren't serving you, Saturn would have shown you what needs to be removed. There's a karmic element at play here where the old, present, and future parts of ourselves will be blended together, integrated for our highest good so that we may come out of this retrograde fast tracked onto our path forward with the karmic energy of the past having been cleared away, while we fully embrace the newly transformed self.
This particular shift out of retrograde is a game changer. We will see it play out on a global scale through the banking systems, government bodies, and religious communities as they fall, crumbling into a heap of old energy that isn't strong enough to weather our modern day storms. There is already evidence of this taking place on a global platform, and Saturn has a hand in it. We will see the rules and restrictions change once again challenging the current narrative and freeing us in a lot of the ways we’ve been feeling trapped.
This direct shift of energy is also very potent because Saturn is joining Pluto who just stepped out of retrograde as well, bringing all of the power and control issues to light. Pluto is triggering the darkest parts of ourselves, the not-so-good emotions surrounding obsession, guilt, fear, doubts, insecurities, and anger, so that we can use these darker emotions to transform them into light and take our power and control back from whatever source we’ve given it away to.
Together, and with the assistance of Jupiter and Mercury about to come out of their retrogrades - Saturn and Pluto will do a bit of re-organization and refinement. The focus of this disruption, all in divine order, is to focus on the roles and responsibilities we have in life, and to breakdown the restrictions we've been living under in order to truly live more freely in the new world we are creating.
Our foundations, global systems, and structures are outdated, and because we - as a collective - are no longer satisfied with the happenings in the world on the global platform, an uprising of humanity will assist in helping those structures crumble as we are ready to build new.
We are in the year of adjustments; building and refining the changes we’ve already made leaving the past behind and bringing new cycles to life. We can clearly see that the cornerstones of the existing foundation need to be restrengthened, re-supported, re-poured in order to be structurally sound.
This is Saturn, the structural engineer coming in to overlook the project, and we've received a failing grade in the past. Construction was halted to a stop and bulldozed the structure and its footings, only for us to start over and build it right from the beginning. And there's Pluto, the General Foreman of the job, irate and furious that the job is costing him money, he's insulted that his position of authority has been overruled by the engineer. This is HIS job, and HIS word goes. Jupiter going direct next week will amplify and intensify all the growth and expansion that needs to take place in order to get the project back on track. While Mercury’s retrograde has us revisiting old ideas and choices that may flip the script of our overall big picture vision.
Saturn is obsessed, trying to hold onto any inch of the job he can save, not realizing that his need to control the situation when it's in the best interest of the future population that will house this structure, preventing what will be a huge, tragic disaster, where the structure could fall, endangering people's lives, is holding up the path of moving forward. He needs to stop, put himself in time out, and realize that he is wasting precious time and energy trying to protect and save something that is beyond repair. His only option now is to harness the power of his anger and disappointment and focus on rebuilding this project properly from the ground up.
With this shift in perspective, after surrendering to the situation that cannot be changed, he pools together his resources and gets the project on track and built the way it should have been built in the first place.
Surprisingly, the project gets completed much sooner than he had anticipated because the group of workers (humanity) all got on the same page, believed in the same goal, and together, their energy accelerated them down their projected timeline leading them into the successful completion of the project. This is a perfect example of Saturn & Pluto being direct and working together, and what we can expect over the next few months will be mind blowing once we get to look back on all the progress.
The key here, is to recognize the fight you are fighting, see the reasons of why you are trying so hard to hold onto the outdated structures in your life KNOWING that they aren’t solid or strong enough to house the new dreams you are looking to build, and refocus your power and energy to embrace the change and start building new.
This cosmic alignment has been divinely orchestrated in your favour. As the world takes steps to get back to life and create new norms, we are also going through a huge DNA upgrade as we integrate what we’ve learned into our total being. Ask yourself: Do I want to go back to what normal was? Was normal working? Where do I feel angry and frustrated? What new foundations can I build for myself? What ideas am I’m refusing to let go of? And where to I need to take my power back and stand up for myself?

Saturn Retrogrades in Aquarius
Today, Saturn, the Lord of Karma and ruler over structures, authority, roles and responsibilities goes retrograde in Aquarius. Saturn’s full retrograde cycle will take place over the next 5 months ending in October. This major, heavy-hitting planet embodies the military Grandfather energy; strict, hardworking, tough love, all about working hard and taking your time to perfect your craft, the authority figure, and delegator of life lessons, is going to take us a few steps backwards in our lives so that we can destroy anything that left that we can hide behind.
If you are hiding being an illusion of your life, an unauthentic mask of who you are, and holding onto old outdated beliefs and structures that aren't serving you, Saturn will help you see what needs to be removed.

Together, and with the assistance of Mercury about to join them in retrograde - Saturn and Pluto will do a retrograde dance over the next 4.5 - 5 months causing all of our lives a bit of re-organization and refinement.

Pluto Retrogrades
Today, Pluto - the planet of power, control, obsessions, and transformation - goes retrograde in Capricorn. Pluto has been in Capricorn since 2008, creating quite a shift within us individually as well as on the global scene.
Our Government, Politics, Religion, and humanity as a collective has been breaking down the long standing structures that are no longer working for us. Capricorn rules authority and the roles and responsibilities we have, especially when in the public eye. Pluto's entrance into Capricorn has brought us some very upsetting shifts in these authoritative structures, which piece by piece are crumbling to the ground.
We need these changes. We are now living in a world that needs the right kind of structures put into place for our futures to be supported. The old paradigms are not strong enough to handle the power of the reality we are currently living in and will never survive the weight of change we are needing in our futures.
On an individual level we have been working hard to embrace the roles and responsibilities we've been given here on earth, especially where our careers are concerned. Many people have realized that they aren't in the right role and have been making huge changes to align themselves more with a career and the responsibilities that are in more in alignment with their heart and Soul.
Anytime a planet goes retrograde, the energetic influence that is normally projected and expressed outwards in our lives, then becomes focused on our inner worlds where we have an opportunity to transform the not-so-nice feelings surrounding the topics and themes of obsessions, control, and power.
Because Pluto is an outer planet, the energetic influence of it going retrograde doesn't cause chaos and mayhem like the inner planets such as Mercury does when retrograde, but instead the energy shift is very subtle as we take our attention away from the outer world and start moving within. Don't be fooled though, the energy of the outer planets going retrograde has a huge effect on us, and the intensity of the transformation is very much felt and seen.
We will have 5 months of allowing the power and influence of Pluto to dive deep within our consciousness to allow the darker emotions we have surrounding power, control, and obsessions to be raised to the surface where they can be acknowledged and transformed into something lighter. This will have you recognizing very clearly where your obsessions lie. It could be obsessive thinking, obsessive eating, obsessive habits that aren't really serving you.
You may see areas in yourself that require you to free up your control issues, or even show you where you need to exert more control and discipline in your life.
This will also be a time where you fully embrace your power. This time will show you where you've given your power away in order for you to take it back.
The key word here is transform. We aren't trying to acknowledge these issues for release, we want to transform them from a state of darkness into a state of light. We want to harness the power we put into these not-so-nice topics, and transform that power into focusing on what GOOD obsessions we can consume ourselves with.
We want to see where we try to control elements in our lives and work on releasing the compulsive need to have everything happen in a certain way. We want to transform these issues into a source of power.
Be mindful, especially this week as the shift begins. Pay attention to what themes and topics are triggered for you as the healing journey gets started. It's likely that the areas revealed to you in this first week will be what gets an overhaul in your life over the next 5 months.
As always, if you require any assistance navigating these energies, please listen to your April Forecast, listen to the weekly Energy Forecast, and/or book a session online, and I'd be more than happy to help guide you through.

Jupiter Enters Aquarius
Today, Jupiter - the planet of growth, expansion, abundance, optimism and positivity - moves out of the heavy and earthy sign of Capricorn, and moves into the airy energy of Aquarius. Jupiter spends approximately a year in each sign and spent 2020 teamed up with Saturn and Pluto to magnify the damage and destruction that was necessary to level the playing field of the old paradigm. Jupiter usually brings great positivity and optimism, but when weighted down by other heavy hitting planets like Saturn and Pluto, we really didn’t see the beauty that Jupiter is all about over this past year.
To continue this week’s season finale of the great awakening, today’s energy shift will be felt mostly in our mental planes. We move from the heavy earth energy that was mostly focused on our material and physical realm, to entering into Aquarius where we will grow past our old set of beliefs, break the barriers and limitations of our mind to expand past our current awareness and consciousness, to dive into a brand new world.
The last time Jupiter was in Aquarius was in 2009. If you can rewind to that timeframe you will notice how you were encouraged to grow and expand in that year, diving into new territory and explore a new set a beliefs. Depending on where Jupiter is transiting your birth chart, you will see a huge growth and expansion in this area of your life. Collectively we will see a huge push forward in areas of humanitarian efforts, medicine and technology, communities both big and small, and a great awareness and understanding of what we need to heal as a collective.
The energy will feel lighter and more future focused as we elevate our mental planes to a new level of intelligence, solving one problem at a time. The more important energetic shift is coming on the 21st, when Saturn - already in Aquarius - and Jupiter align with one another in the cosmos creating the great conjunction. This shifts us into a brand new cycle.
Jupiter and Saturn only meet up with one another in the cosmos every 20 years, but this event is far more significant ending a 200 year cycle in earth signs now that we attempt to balance the karmic scales of the collective and move into air territory. We have been too focused on the material and physical realm over the last 200 years. We have taken things to the extreme. Now, in air signs, these heavy hitting planets will help us to bring our divine intelligence into play to help us solve some worldly problems that have been ignored for far too long.
You should already be feeling the energy shift of these major heavy hitting planets preparing us for a brand new world. The energy will intensify as we near the 21st, and things will feel much more intense and slightly chaotic until we adapt to this new energy. Aquarius energy is ruled over by Uranus which is the planet of awakening through sudden shock and awe. We need to be prepared to fly by the seat of our pants as we enter into the new dawn of the age of Aquarius.

Saturn Enters Aquarius
Today we have a MAJOR astrology event taking place that is going to go down in history as the great shift of our times. Saturn, the great lord of karma, the ruler over structures and systems, is now moving from its place of power in Capricorn, to it’s second home in Aquarius. Saturn moved into Aquarius back in March but since then retrograded and moved back into its place of power in Capricorn.
Saturn is not a fun energy. It rules over hard work, hard life lessons, and self discipline. It represents the systems and structures we have in society and in our own personal lives. I often refer to Saturn as the military grandfather of the zodiac - very cold and rigid as he barks orders from his role of authority. Saturn and Pluto (ruler of destruction, transformation, and rebirth) are the duo responsible for the crumbling of the systems and structures we are currently experiencing and will continue to show us the hard life lessons we must overcome as we close out 2020. Jupiter - the great magnifier - has been with Saturn & Pluto this year turning up the volume on the amount of damage and destruction they’ve created.
Back in January, there was a historical astrological event between Saturn, Jupiter, and Pluto triggering the potential war talks, the divide among humanity, the riots, and of course, the corona virus. (Listen to the podcast episode here). As these heavy hitting planets have been in Capricorn (business, government, and roles of authority) for quite some time now, we are definitely seeing the results of their encounter worldwide.
Saturn, now ready to make the jump from earthy Capricorn (consumerism, material values, hierarchies) to airy Aquarius (intellect, information, collaboration) - FOR GOOD - will literally be the turning point of our history. This particular cosmic event takes place days before the Sun reaches the Galactic Center, before Jupiter joins Saturn in Aquarius, and before they team up and have the great conjunction that will shift us into a brand new age. This historic event will trigger a restructuring and a reorganization of our world. The systems and structures we’ve had in place are no longer in alignment with the vibration of the collective consciousness. We have seen traditional roles of our government, banking systems, economy, health care, politicians and celebrities crumble.
This, although extremely painful and chaotic to live through, is a much needed turn of events to revolutionize society, to focus more on the health and well being and value of human lives, animals, and nature over the capitalist idea of making a dollar. We could not continue on that path. Now, with Saturn entering into the humanitarian sign of Aquarius, we will see breakthrough take place in our medical, scientific and technology sectors to push us into a brand new age.
We must return back to basics using this energy in pioneering and innovating for the future. We had to get rid of all the old systems and structures that were more focused on consumerism and making a dollar versus taking care of life and the world around us like we are about to do.
Saturn moving into Aquarius will shift us out of our comfort zones of sticking to what is familiar even though it doesn’t feel good, and now support us is creating a world that will encourage and support humanitarian efforts. This is where the global collective comes together to unify the worlds resources and cherish the human experience above all else.
This is a time where we create a new earth. Where we keep the collective’s health and well being at the top of the list of priorities, and where we suddenly see how to put the pieces back together in a much more functional way.
We are definitely living in unprecedented times, and although things may seem a bit crazy in the world right now, it is absolutely necessary to breakdown before we break through. The chaos isn’t quite finished yet, as the major heavy hitting planets are still very much flexing their powers globally in the government and financial sectors. We will have to focus very hard on the world we would like to live in to make sure the global collective is at the right vibration for new earth to emerge.

Saturn Goes Retrograde
Today, Saturn, the Lord of Karma and ruler over structures, authority, roles and responsibilities goes retrograde in Aquarius before sneaking back into its place of power in Capricorn. Saturn’s full retrograde cycle will take place over the next 4 months ending on September 29, 2020. This major, heavy-hitting planet embodies the military Grandfather energy; strict, hardworking, tough love, all about working hard and taking your time to perfect your craft, the authority figure, and delegator of life lessons, is going to take us a few steps backwards in our lives so that we can destroy anything that left that we can hide behind.
If you are hiding being an illusion of your life, an unauthentic mask of who you are, and holding onto old outdated beliefs and structures that aren't serving you, Saturn will help you see what needs to be removed. There's a karmic element at play here where the old, present, and future parts of ourselves will be blended together, integrated for our highest good so that we may come out of this retrograde fast tracked onto our path forward with the karmic energy of the past having been cleared away, while we fully embrace the newly transformed self.
This particular retrograde is a life changer. We will see it play out on a global scale through the banking systems, government bodies, and religious communities as they fall, crumbling into a heap of old energy that isn't strong enough to weather our modern day storms. There is already evidence of this taking place on a global platform, and Saturn has a hand in it.
This retrograde is also very potent because Saturn is joining Pluto in Retrograde in Capricorn as well, bringing all of the power and control issues to light. Pluto is triggering the darkest parts of ourselves, the not-so-good emotions surrounding obsession, guilt, fear, doubts, insecurities, and anger, so that we can use these darker emotions to transform them into light.
Together, and with the assistance of both Jupiter and Venus about to join them in retrograde - Saturn and Pluto will do a retrograde dance over the next 4.5 - 5 months causing all of our lives a bit of re-organization and refinement. Because this is taking place in Capricorn (Saturn will re-enter Capricorn on July 1st), the focus of this disruption, all in divine order, is to focus on the roles and responsibilities we have in life, and to breakdown the restrictions we've been living under in order to truly live more freely in the new world we are creating.
Our foundations, global systems, and structures are outdated, and because we - as a collective - are no longer satisfied with the happenings in the world on the global platform, an uprising of humanity will assist in helping those structures crumble as we are ready to build new.
We are in the year of building, the year of creation, but there are safety and financial concerns building a new structure on a foundation that isn't strong enough to withhold the new design. With this visual, we can clearly see that the cornerstones of the existing foundation need to be restrengthened, re-supported, re-poured in order to be structurally sound.
This is Saturn, the structural engineer coming in to overlook the project, and we've received a failing grade. Construction is halted to a stop so we can bulldoze the structure and its footings, only to start over and build it right from the beginning. And there's Pluto, the General Foreman of the job, irate and furious that the job is costing him money, he's insulted that his position of authority has been overruled by the engineer. This is HIS job, and HIS word goes. Jupiter going retrograde will amplify and intensify all the growth and expansion that needs to take place in order to get the project back on track. While Venus retrograde will have us revisiting old ideas and associates to put an emphasis of the value being constructed.
Saturn is obsessed, trying to hold onto any inch of the job he can save, not realizing that his need to control the situation when it's in the best interest of the future population that will house this structure, preventing what will be a huge, tragic disaster, where the structure could fall, endangering people's lives, is holding up the path of moving forward. He needs to stop, put himself in time out, and realize that he is wasting precious time and energy trying to protect and save something that is beyond repair. His only option now is to harness the power of his anger and disappointment and focus on rebuilding this project properly from the ground up.
With this shift in perspective, after surrendering to the situation that cannot be changed, he pools together his resources and gets the project on track and built the way the engineer suggested in the first place.
Surprisingly, the project gets completed much sooner than he had anticipated because the group of workers all got on the same page, believed in the same goal, and together, their energy accelerated them down their projected timeline leading them into the successful completion of the project. This is a perfect example of Saturn, Pluto & Jupiter being retrograde in Capricorn, and what we can expect over the next few months.
The key here, is to surrender. Recognize the fight you are fighting, see the reasons of why you are trying so hard to hold onto the outdated structures in your life KNOWING that they aren’t solid or strong enough to house the new dreams you are looking to build, and refocus your power and energy to embrace the change and start building new.
This cosmic alignment has been divinely orchestrated in your favour. As the world takes steps to get back to life and create new norms, we are also going through a huge DNA upgrade as we integrate what we’ve learned into our total being. Ask yourself: Do I want to go back to what normal was? Was normal working? Where do I feel angry and frustrated? What new foundations can I build for myself? What ideas am I’m refusing to let go of? And where to I need to take my power back and stand up for myself?

Saturn Enters Aquarius
Today we have a MAJOR astrology event taking place that is going to go down in history as the great shift of our times. Saturn, the great lord of karma, the ruler over structures and systems, is now moving from its place of power in Capricorn, to it’s second home in Aquarius. Saturn is not a fun energy. It rules over hard work, hard life lessons, and self discipline. I often refer to Saturn as the military grandfather of the zodiac - very cold and rigid as he barks orders from his role of authority. Saturn and Pluto (ruler of destruction, transformation, and rebirth) are the duo responsible for the crumbling of the systems and structures we are currently experiencing and will continue to show us the hard life lessons we must overcome as we move through 2020.
Back in January, there was a historical astrological event between Saturn and Pluto triggering the potential war talks, the economic downfall, and of course, the most recent corona virus. (Listen to the podcast episode here). As these heavy hitting planets have been in Capricorn (business, government, and roles of authority) for quite some time now, we are definitely seeing the results of their encounter worldwide.
The major of the heavy hitting planets have been grouped together very tightly in the cosmos creating chaos in the world, and since Saturn reached its 29th degree of Capricorn (a crisis point) we have seen the damage and destruction of this energy spread like wild fire. Saturn moved into it’s 29th degree on the wee hours of March 10th - just after the full super moon in virgo (health/wellness/crisis) but also when mercury (the messenger of the gods ruling over the mental plane) came out of its retrograde and went direct in Aquarius.
Saturn, now ready to make the jump from earthy Capricorn (consumerism, material values, hierarchies) to airy Aquarius (intellect, information, collaboration) will literally be the turning point of our history. This particular cosmic event will trigger a restructuring and a reorganization of our world. The systems and structures we’ve had in place are no longer in alignment with the vibration of the collective consciousness. We have seen traditional roles of our government, banking systems, economy, health care, politicians and celebrities crumble.
This, although extremely painful and chaotic to live through, is a much needed turn of events to revolutionize society, to focus more on the health and well being and value of human lives, animals, and nature over the capitalist idea of making a dollar. We could not continue on that path. Now, with Saturn entering into the humanitarian sign of Aquarius, we will see breakthrough take place in our medical, scientific and technology sectors to push us into a brand new age.
We must return back to basics using this energy in pioneering and innovating for the future. We had to get rid of all the old systems and structures that were more focused on consumerism and making a dollar versus taking care of life and the world around us like we are about to do.
Saturn moving into Aquarius will shift us out of our comfort zones of sticking to what is familiar even though it doesn’t feel good, and now support us is creating a world that will encourage and support humanitarian efforts. This is where the global collective comes together to unify the worlds resources and cherish the human experience above all else.
Saturn will be moving into Aquarius for only 3 months before it will retrograde back into Capricorn. What we experience over the next 3 months will give us a good idea of what’s to come for our global community over the next 2 - 3 years. We will have amazing breakthroughs take place that will help us overcome the current global crisis and handle future events with more humane systematic controls then what we’ve currently been implementing.
This is a time where we create a new earth. Where we keep the collective’s health and well being at the top of the list of priorities, and where we suddenly see how to put the pieces back together in a much more functional way.
Once Saturn retrogrades back into Capricorn, we will see an emergence of tension to test the structures we discovered while Saturn is in Aquarius. This will help us iron out the bugs and refine the details to get fully prepared for the revolution of humanity once Saturn re-enters Aquarius in December. where it will stay for the next 2-3 years.
We are definitely living in unprecedented times, and although things may seem a bit crazy in the world right now, it is absolutely necessary to breakdown before we break through. The chaos isn’t quite finished yet, as the major heavy hitting planets are still very much flexing their powers globally in the government and financial sectors. We will have to focus very hard on the world we would like to live in to make sure the global collective is at the right vibration for new earth to emerge.

Mars vs. Pluto - A Conflict in the Cosmos
Whether you believe in and follow astrology or not, the subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) energies of the cosmos are felt within our mind, body, and souls. Today marks a very intense shift in energy created and propelled by two very forceful energetic bodies going head to head in the cosmos.
Mars (the God of War) ruling over energy, drive, passion, and aggression, goes head to head in a cosmic battle with Pluto (the God of the Underworld) ruling over our darkest parts of self, our subconscious mind, and the anger we try so hard to keep hidden. This particular energetic battle causes a great intensity that triggers the aggression and fire within.
Although this energy is direct and at its most potent influence today, you’ve likely been feeling this energy build over the last few days. Both Mars and Pluto are Scorpio’s rulers, and as we are currently in the depths of Scorpio’s emotional waters, this fire added to an already very intense emotional storm could cause a few issues in our relationships.
Mars and Pluto are rulers of the current season, but Mars is currently positioned in Libra at a crisis point in the final degrees of the sign before it leaves Libra’s energy for Scorpio. Mars in Libra is adding an aggressive narrative to our mental planes and having a hard time balancing the energies to create peace and harmony in our relationships. Pluto is rooted in Capricorn energy right now, where the power struggles of breaking free from restrictions are the hottest energy topic.
So here we are in Scorpio season working on healing our subconscious mind and pieces of our soul, with mercury retrograde, having us look back on our pasts, reviewing, reflecting, revising, the mental perspectives we’ve been having, and Mars and Pluto decide they can’t put off their aggression with one another any longer. This is adding some Libra and Capricorn energy to the watery mix of Scorpio season and we will likely see this effect our relationships greatly.
This mixture of energies can see a rise of aggression, violence, and hostility, within ourselves and others, effecting the collective on a grander scale. It’s lighter aspects can reveal great strength, huge amounts of courage, and a potent power to overcome our fears. With everything in life, there is a duality that gives us options to tap into one side of the energy over the other.
This energy is very triggering, exposing our wounds and urging us to transform into more powerful beings. By using the aggression, energy, passion, and drive within us to face our fears, accept our controlling and manipulative ways, and see where they have been creating blocks for us in moving forward, we can essentially overcome the old narrative that has created a stagnancy in our progress to advancing our consciousness. Again, being in Scorpio season and having the ability to change our subconscious programming is a blessing in disguise when we use our darkness to lead us into the light.

Saturn Goes Retrograde
Today, Saturn, the Lord of Karma and ruler over structures, authority, roles and responsibilities goes retrograde in Capricorn until September 18th, 2019. This major, heavy-hitting planet embodies the Grandfather energy; strict, hardworking, tough love, all about working hard and taking your time to perfect your craft, the authority figure, and delegator of life lessons, is going to take us a few steps backwards in our lives so that we can destroy anything that left that we can hide behind.
If you are hiding being an illusion of your life, an unauthentic mask of who you are, and holding onto old outdated beliefs and structures that aren't serving you, Saturn will help you see what needs to be removed. There's a karmic element at play here where the old, present, and future parts of ourselves will be blended together, integrated for our highest good so that we may come out of this retrograde fast tracked onto our path forward with the karmic energy of the past having been cleared away, while we fully embrace the newly transformed self.
This particular retrograde is a life changer. We will see it play out on a global scale through the banking systems, government bodies, and religious communities as they fall, crumbling into a heap of old energy that isn't strong enough to weather our modern day storms. There is already evidence of this taking place on a global platform, and Saturn has a hand in it.
This retrograde is also very potent because Saturn is joining Pluto in Retrograde in Capricorn as well, bringing all of the power and control issues to light. Pluto is triggering the darkest parts of ourselves, the not-so-good emotions surrounding obsession, guilt, fear, doubts, insecurities, and anger, so that we can use these darker emotions to transform them into light.
Together, Saturn and Pluto will do a retrograde dance over the next 4.5 - 5 months causing all of our lives a bit of re-organization and refinement. Because this is taking place in Capricorn, the focus of this disruption, all in divine order, is to focus on the roles and responsibilities we have in life, and to breakdown the restrictions we've been living under in order to truly live more freely in the new world we are creating.
Our foundations, global systems, and structures are outdated, and because we - as a collective - are no longer satisfied with the happenings in the world on the global platform, an uprising of humanity will assist in helping those structures crumble as we are ready to build new.
We are in the year of building, the year of creation, but there are safety and financial concerns building a new structure on a foundation that isn't strong enough to withhold the new design. With this visual, we can clearly see that the cornerstones of the existing foundation need to be restrengthened, re-supported, re-poured in order to be structurally sound.
This is Saturn, the structural engineer coming in to overlook the project, and we've received a failing grade. Construction is halted to a stop so we can bulldoze the structure and its footings, only to start over and build it right from the beginning. And there's Pluto, the General Foreman of the job, irate and furious that the job is costing him money, he's insulted that his position of authority has been overruled by the engineer. This is HIS job, and HIS word goes.
Now he is obsessed, trying to hold onto any inch of the job he can save, not realizing that his need to control the situation when it's in the best interest of the future population that will house this structure, preventing what will be a huge, tragic disaster, where the structure could fall, endangering people's lives, is holding up the path of moving forward. He needs to stop, put himself in time out, and realize that he is wasting precious time and energy trying to protect and save something that is beyond repair. His only option now is to harness the power of his anger and disappointment and focus on rebuilding this project properly from the ground up.
With this shift in perspective, after surrendering to the situation that cannot be changed, he pools together his resources and gets the project on track and built the way the engineer suggested in the first place.
Surprisingly, the project gets completed much sooner than he had anticipated because the group of workers all got on the same page, believed in the same goal, and together, their energy accelerated them down their projected timeline leading them into the successful completion of the project. This is a perfect example of Saturn and Pluto being retrograde in Capricorn, and what we can expect over the next few months.
The key here, is to surrender. Recognize the fight you are fighting, see the reasons of why you are trying so hard to hold onto the outdated structures in your life KNOWING that they aren’t solid or strong enough to house the new dreams you are looking to build, and refocus your power and energy to embrace the change and start building new.
As always, if you require any assistance navigating these energies, please book a session online, and I'd be more than happy to help guide you through.
Pluto Goes Retrograde
Today, Pluto - the planet of power, control, obsessions, and transformation - goes retrograde in Capricorn. Pluto has been in Capricorn since 2008, creating quite a shift within us individually as well as on the global scene.
Our Government, Politics, Religion, and humanity as a collective has been breaking down the long standing structures that are no longer working for us. Capricorn rules authority and the roles and responsibilities we have, especially when in the public eye. Pluto's entrance into Capricorn has brought us some very upsetting shifts in these authoritative structures, which piece by piece are crumbling to the ground.
We need these changes. We are now living in a world that needs the right kind of structures put into place for our futures to be supported. The old paradigms are not strong enough to handle the power of the reality we are currently living in and will never survive the weight of change we are needing in our futures.
On an individual level we have been working hard to embrace the roles and responsibilities we've been given here on earth, especially where our careers are concerned. Many people have realized that they aren't in the right role and have been making huge changes to align themselves more with a career and the responsibilities that are in more in alignment with their heart and Soul.
Anytime a planet goes retrograde, the energetic influence that is normally projected and expressed outwards in our lives, then becomes focused on our inner worlds where we have an opportunity to transform the not-so-nice feelings surrounding the topics and themes of obsessions, control, and power.
Because Pluto is an outer planet, the energetic influence of it going retrograde doesn't cause chaos and mayhem like the inner planets such as Mercury does when retrograde, but instead the energy shift is very subtle as we take our attention away from the outer world and start moving within. Don't be fooled though, the energy of the outer planets going retrograde has a huge effect on us, and the intensity of the transformation is very much felt and seen.
We will have 5 months of allowing the power and influence of Pluto to dive deep within our consciousness to allow the darker emotions we have surrounding power, control, and obsessions to be raised to the surface where they can be acknowledged and transformed into something lighter. This will have you recognizing very clearly where your obsessions lie. It could be obsessive thinking, obsessive eating, obsessive habits that aren't really serving you.
You may see areas in yourself that require you to free up your control issues, or even show you where you need to exert more control and discipline in your life.
This will also be a time where you fully embrace your power. This time will show you where you've given your power away in order for you to take it back.
The key word here is transform. We aren't trying to acknowledge these issues for release, we want to transform them from a state of darkness into a state of light. We want to harness the power we put into these not-so-nice topics, and transform that power into focusing on what GOOD obsessions we can consume ourselves with.
We want to see where we try to control elements in our lives and work on releasing the compulsive need to have everything happen in a certain way. We want to transform these issues into a source of power.
Be mindful, especially this week as the shift begins. Pay attention to what themes and topics are triggered for you as the healing journey gets started. It's likely that the areas revealed to you in this first week will be what gets an overhaul in your life over the next 5 months.
