We’re all going through this important Saturn transit at the same time. Saturn unrelentingly turns our necks and pushes our faces into reality. No, you can’t look away. No escape. No avoidance. No rationalizing it away.

There’s no negotiating w/ reality. Language shapes ur perception of it. Conviction gives it meaning through story + myth. But u know what reality is not by what u believe it is, not by what you name it. U know what reality is by the material consequences of ur encounter with it.

Saturn is reality. Saturn is death. The inescapable fate of the living. You try to avoid it until it’s your turn. But it makes your acquaintance many times before then.

Can you face reality?
Can you hold your words and meaning making long enough to really FEEL reality’s truth in your body?
Can you let reality change you?

Cynicism. Nihilism. Apathy. Despondency. Depression. Grief. Hopelessness.

These are all necessary paths through this current Saturn transit.

How do you know you’re having a difficult saturn transit?

You‘re repeatedly shocked into not caring about anything except the urgent + pressing reality right in front of your face. You lose your ability to dream because reality won’t let you see beyond the present circumstances.

What is the goal of hard Saturn transits?

To know in your body who and what matters. No, I mean really matters. It narrows your sphere of influence and makes you count time like money you won’t get anymore of.

“Death conjures the ceilings, walls, limits, and conceptions of an incalculable but sure end. It is the ultimate reference point for deciphering meaning and calculating the value of now.” http://Orcle.me/satcap20 

Saturn doesn’t reward or punish. It is what it is.
