SATURN RETROGRADE AND THE LESSONS WE LEARN
Hi everyone,
This has been a tough past four weeks for me personally and I guess for many others of you as well. Not only were many forced to learn how to cope with a minimum wage due to shortage of work in relation to the pandemic, but also now trying to hop onto any opportunity to make money to create a better future.
I will only cover in this post my personal observation and understanding of the effects of Saturn going retrograde for humanity at large, not for each individual Zodiac Sign. I do believe that there a certain lessons and upgrades for humanity happening on a bigger scale and that’s what I want to talk about.
So just that you are aware.
Since May 23rd 2021, according to Vedic Astrology, Saturn returned to the Zodiac Sign of Capricorn and is considered retrograde. Saturn occupies the Nakshatra Sravana.(very small part of a Zodiac Sign also known as Moon house).
For your understanding, Sravana is linked to Lord Vishnu and represented by an ear. This means, your intuition will be heightened due to listening intensely to your inner voice and act accordingly.
It also brings out truth about people you are dealing with, given you are willing to listen to what they have to say.
Good or bad for you, it will be made very clear.
Saturn is the planet of Karma, linked to government, waste, old age, time, discipline, seriousness and ambition. If this powerful planet goes retrograde, we should look into our own self discipline, how we are managing our daily lives and what we want to achieve in the future.
It’s also putting any visible development on a hold- the development is mostly on the inside until it has ripened like a fruit and ready to be presented.
If you experiencing set backs and a loss of enthusiasm, turn inwards and get back in touch with yourself to figure out what needs to be done right in front of you.
Another really important task for everyone is, to get rid of anything and yes, anyone that no longer belongs into your life.
Meaning: sell, give away and sort out your clothes you no longer need and want, get rid of material stuff just sitting around and catching dust, but meaning nothing to you.
In regards of people, it might happen, that you are meeting new people or dealing with old friends and acquaintances on a new level.
What does it mean?
Let´s say, you meet someone new. You develop a certain level of trust and you guys are talking. Perhaps you also do some fun stuff together. At some point, there are things said which make you feel slightly uncomfortable and you are just noticing them as odd.
You are giving them another chance because you believe that people deserve second chances.
Now, something else happens and you realize you have to set up boundaries because this person seems to not hesitate at all to walk all over you.
Saturn comes into play, helping you now, to put into practice what you have learned during the past year. Are you ready to stand up for yourself fully or will you tolerate another disappointment?
There have been really tough lessons lately and I want to share a deep insight with you because it is very likely that Saturn retrograde will touch on each and every topic you „should“ have learned to deal with in your best interest.
Please do not ever again in your life ask anybody to why they chose to make you uncomfortable or do anything that hurt you.They are fully responsible for their choices and actions, as you are for yours. No excuses.
You have to be drawing a line immediately, cutting out fearlessly. Anything and anyone that doesn´t serve you, does not deserve a second chance, nor the benefit of a doubt.
How is a draining behavior ever going to serve you in any shape or form? Ask this question if you are faced with adversity against yourself.
This is a tough lesson I had to learn in my life and I am strictly following it.
My inner circle is "pro" me and not doing anything to hurt, harm or ridicule me. This must be the top priority in everyone's life because your level of tolerance towards others defines what you teach them about how you are allowing to be treated.
And if you do not show the world what you are willing to take and what you refuse to accept, people will shamelessly be taking advantage of your kind soul.
Every act that could be a mere misunderstanding should be closely observed. Is it really just a misunderstanding, then we can talk about it and put it out of the way. But if the same thing happens again, despite you previously mentioned it as something that bothers you, it is already a pattern and shows you clearly somebody’s true intentions towards you.
There is no glory in trying to please someone just because you want to see the good in them, when In reality they could not care less about pleasing you.
The Zodiac sign of Capricorn does link Saturn to government and authorities. You might have to stand up for yourself once and for all. If you feel like you are being taken advantage of, make it clear, that this is not going to happen any longer.
Do not be afraid of facing any adversity. If you are not allowed to have a voice, you are in the wrong environment. Of course it not advised to just run off but you can always find another job while you are working for your present company.
We all have to learn now to draw a line and not tolerate any sort of disrespecting behavior towards ourselves and to grow deeper into our personalities.
Saturn rewards any work we are willing to perform on ourselves and helps us in this way to move forward and reaching our goals because we are growing.
This Saturn retrograde period will go on until October 11th 2021 and it is a promising time to sort yourself out, bringing a new level of awareness and ambition into your life.
With lots of love for humanity,
Padminy Astrology
