It is also an apt description of Saturnian energy, and
wherever Saturn is in your chart by house and sign, that is where you must put
forth this effort.
For it is this planet (as well as where Capricorn falls in
your chart placement) where you develop your discipleship.
Without that discipleship/discipline, you cannot attain the rewards and
perspicacity, wisdom of Saturn that eventually brings FREEDOM.
The beginning of this year, started with a line up in this
sign, the planets all taking us mountain climbing and when you add the planet Pluto,
the ruler of the ‘underground’ and of course, known by his other name, Hades
the far more ominous sounding of the two, and then imagining literally the
gates of Hades opening up the icy cliffs and exposing all the detritus, as well
as the wealth that the earth holds (Ploutos is also the Greek word for wealth
and the root of the word, Plutocracy)as shared in the 2013 blog here: https://arcoftheancients.blogspot.com/2013/02/pluto-in-capricorn-evolution-of-world.html

Saturn rules GOVERNMENT.
What has been exposed is just how many and how much, people
do not trust the government. A lot of
corporate money has been INVESTED in making sure people don’t trust the government,
because privatization is on the schedule, but in many ways will lose out with
Saturn and Jupiter’s Great Conjunction in Aquarius.
Those are some biblical examples of Ploutos, which I though fitting since this has been a year of biblical proportions, including ending the year with the Star of Bethlehem that the Magi followed over 2000 years ago.
You see, the Book of Light is much deeper than most people
ever go, and then miss out on so much ILLUMINATION of the MYSTERY’S.
Saturn and Pluto together can be MAGNIFIED FEAR which can cause DEEP DEPRESSION. It can have a lot to do with measuring ones WORTH as their achievements on the top of the mountain/peak or CROWNING doesn’t add up to their hopes, dreams and ambitions (Saturn/Capricorn/10th house rules ambitions).
You can also reach your goals only to discover they are not
as fulfilling as you thought they would be.
It is at this point, that some people can fall into despair, others turn
inward and do some deeper reflection, and still others turn their focus on new
goals. None of this is either/or. It obviously can be, it doesn’t take too much
delving into historical figures to see this play out.
A clear example of this is when men turn a certain age
(Uranus opposition or Saturn return) and buy a sports car and want a new
younger woman.
It does not help that the Western Mind is obsessed with
celebrity and fame.
I point out that fame, in and of itself is not bad, but it
can be very difficult to handle that energy, power and RESPONSIBILITY which is
also a key word for Saturn. These men
(and yes, some women too) have set themselves up to ‘live the American Dream’
and can feel as though they have fallen short or feel cheated out of that ‘promise’,
which of course, is the opposite of the deeper gifts Saturn and life can bring.
Saturn rules structure, your home, business, bones, teeth,
and knees of the body.
Pluto rules the Mob, other people’s money, insurance and
inheritance, and the reproductive organs, sex and secrets or what is hidden. (like
a virus)
Can you see how bringing these two together and then adding
the Great Magnifier, Jupiter to the mix might bring to yourself, to society?
Which brings me to the full moon in Cancer on Tuesday,
December 29th at 10:28PM, when the moon stands across from the sun
at 8*53’ Cancer and the sun is at 8*53’ Capricorn, and both ILLUMINATE THAT
ENERGY.
Cancer the Mother, ruler of the 4th house, the moon,
which is also symbolic of people, can be missing her children right now, for
all those mothers who didn’t get their dose of family during the holidays. It can feel like the ‘empty nest syndrome’
for some mothers and fathers.
Even during facetime, or skyping/zooming whichever new Aquarian medium that is used,
parents and mothers in particular watching their children enjoy the holidays,
can still feel left out and unnecessary.
Here is a really wonderful article on loneliness, closeness
and emptiness:
Microsoft Word - 07-OnEmptinessandClosenessII
(cflarchives.org)
~By THOMAS F. FOGARTY, M.D.
“... Consequently, everyone is at least a little lonely,
feels that he is inadequate, a failure — in a word, feels some emptiness. It is
important to realize and acknowledge this natural incompleteness. The myth that
completeness exists, the desperate search for it, leads people to attempt the
impossible. If one learns to accept incompleteness, to define the fifth
dimension of self, then he will engage in the possible. One cannot have
complete emotional tranquility, do everything intellectually. If one tries to
fill the fifth dimension of self, he can do it only by the unfulfilled
expectation for it, by wishful thinking, by fantasy. When not acknowledged,
people fill it in by drugs, sex, alcohol, money, attempts to accumulate self
from others, conflict, helplessness, mysticism, causes, power seeking, phony
types of religion, activities, etc. It leads to an unreal picture of life
governed by what should be fairness, righteousness, what people ought to do,
doing good — a dream.” ~excerpt
You can see just by that one paragraph; how many deep
emotions are being triggered by the planetary
aspects. In the sense that we are COLLECTIVELY going through this
time TOGETHER, we are not alone in the EXPERIENCE OR FEELINGS OR EVEN FEARS.
This flies in such controversy to so much of what is taught,
and many believe that are not complete spiritual truths, now known as ‘spiritual
bypassing’.
That also triggers many people, who REACT WITHOUT REASON OR
CONSIDERATION. They wear that false
spirituality like a cloak that they hope will protect them from what lies
hidden in the depths of their own psyche or past.
This in part, is why so many truly great teachers of wisdom and spirituality,
like St. John of the Cross who I brought up in previous posts. His bittersweet poem now known as, ‘The Dark
Night Of The Soul’ is just such a treatise.
How many were ‘following all the signs’ only to find
themselves feeling abandoned? Where did
those signs go?
And a sign was given, The Star of Bethlehem on December 21st.
They lit up the early dusk canopy and filled many telescopes with their lens trained on these two planets, Saturn and Jupiter coming closer together than they have in hundreds of years.
And, as I have stated, we are now in the MIDDLE of the Great
USA Fire Eclipse.
The middle obviously means we are not out of this, but like
the Solstice that happened on the very same day, the daylight will start to
increase, however we still have long dark nights to get through.
St John in traversing his own dark night, came to the
realization that GRACE is necessary.
That without GRACE there is not REDEMPTION.
I am also reminded of the ‘terrible angels’ in this moment,
which can be so fulfilling an experience, whether it is angels coming through
the dimensions to help you, or earth angels who appear on your road, when you
need them.
It can also portend the NEED for such angels, healers or
teachers on your path.
The saying’ ‘when the student is ready the teacher appears’
is very true.
But as anyone who has experienced the journey of learning
different healing modalities can attest (Like Reiki) you can go through your
own healing process and even crisis. I
have joked in the past, that this is in part the meaning of the sign in
cartoons and fables at the entry to the forest that say: ‘Turn back now!!!’
This year has not been for the faint of heart.
And so, this is a gentle reminder to all of you, to be
gentle with yourselves and others, as much as possible.
Yes, we have climbed mountains and overcome obstacles, but
just as someone can feel an ‘emptiness’ after attaining a goal they worked so
hard to achieve, the saying: ‘the higher they climb the farther they fall’ is
also appropriate.
Here, I am shown a Glacier.
What we see is the beautiful peaks, but what lies below the surface, is
far greater, and as in the case of the ‘Titanic’, far more dangerous and even
deadly.
Interesting that name, Titanic. The planets that Jupiter/Zeus releases when
he meets up with his father Cronus/Saturn are called: ‘The Titans’.
Poseidon/Neptune and Pluto/Hades being two of them.
In this full moon in Cancer, it can be emotionally
overwhelming. So let the tears flow if
there is sadness or sorrow now leaking from the vase that is so full.
You don’t have to feel ashamed or broken, but HUMAN.
The fifth verse from St. John:
In an obscure night
Fevered with love's anxiety
(O hapless, happy plight!)
I went, none seeing me
Forth from my house, where all things quiet be...
Do you see the comparison that is so lucid, to the time we are now all living?
Safe distancing, quarantining, isolating?
The thing about Aquarians, they can seem ‘unhuman’ at times, like a computer themselves, or the first android model, they rationalize so much, that they can APPEAR to not have feelings. That is not true of course, they are often just compartmentalizing to deal with events, or conversely completely NOT DEALING WITH REALITY AT ALL. As if they are just above this, it can be maddening for those around them that don’t view life through that lens.
They just use that mental AIR and decide it is not WORTH IT.
(The square to Aquarius in the FIXED CROSS, is Taurus the Bull, who is all
about ‘VALUE AND WHAT IT IS WORTH’.
The sun and moon form a T-Square, (Tau Cross) to Chiron the
Wounded Healer who is at 5* Aries. This
puts the pressure on that healing to take place. Be forewarned that trying to avoid this will make
the new moon on January 13th far more excruciating, since the sun
and moon will meet up with lord Hades who will be only 1 degree and 1 day away.
For some, it can seem as if they never can reach their goals
or as stated previously, unfulfilled.
Futile.
A lot of buried pain and fear being unearthed and exposed.
Another bi-product of spiritual bypassing, people not facing
their own inner demons or worse, pretending they don’t’ have any and are perfect,
this is someone who is even more terrified than those who actually deal with
them and acknowledge the shadow self.
All psychologists learn this lesson early on in their studies.
Pluto/the 8th house rules psychology.
Neptune/Poseidon at 18* PIsces is also still squaring the head and tail of the
dragon, the north node at 19* Gemini (Castor and Pollux) and the South Node at
19* Sagittarius, disgorging all that he has digested, the past and activating
ancient karmic lives, which may come visiting like the Ghost of Christmas Past.
Neptune dissolves this hardening square, making it somewhat
elusive but also softening the sharper
edges, so it can be dangerous but not always
so lethal.
This also brings the appearance of the Vaccines being produced now.
And yet, as we see from what you’ve read, many will still
have a lot of fear regarding this issue.
Uranus is getting ready to station direct on January 13th
just before the new moon when he is at 6* Taurus and Mars has saddled up
alongside of him at 3* Taurus, so this is going to be another powerful day, all
leading up to the Inauguration on January 20th.
What can we do?
Get one thing out at a time, try to focus on what is immediately in front of you, and break it down into a digestible, manageable process. Unpack one difficult memory from your past and sit with it, comfort yourself and realize NOONE IS PERFECT. Even if you don’t think you did your best, know that you did the best you were capable of at the time. Unresolved issues that can hold you hostage to the past, also can create a barrier to the present. Saturn wants to solve things and bring things to an end/peak experience and lesson.
Sitting in the darkness with another can be profoundly
disturbing and can provoke the need to ‘solve’ the issue, so someone (friend,
relative, etc.) is no longer in pain.
Sometimes that is just not possible and all someone really needs is for
someone to come and sit with them in that darkness. Not to resolve an issue or make it all
better.
When people have serious unresolved issues and trauma from
the past, they can tend to want to skip over your issues too. Put that pain away, let’s put on a happy
face.
The real gift to another, is simply to WITNESS THEM. To see them in their darkness, that shadow
and still want to be with them, WITHOUT making them better to help YOU feel
more comfortable.
You tell them you accept them AND their darkness. Their dark past, their wounds, or whatever
painful episode they may be enduring in the present moment. Wisdom tells us we cannot fix everything.
And so, being able to be PRESENT to someone, is the GIFT all
by itself.
Take a bath, a shower, smudge yourself, cleanse your aura
during and/or after you have experienced any resurfacing of your own issues or
another’s, because that can drudge up your past too.
Take a bit of salt and put that in your hand with a bit of water, wipe this
over your head and shoulders, down your arms.
Wash your hands up to your elbow’s like a surgeon.
Do a foot soak. Of
course, ArcAncient’s salts will be of optimal assistance for just this purpose.
So too, Light Spirits Mister, Sleep Angel, Stress Relief,
Breathing Easy, Inner Glow, Courage and even Sensual Healing. The moon blend is always helpful for that and
the following moon, mother is guiding us always.
If you don’t have any of those, then use plain salt and mix
that with Epsom Salt.
Go out and find some Pine Trees and inhale that scent
deeply. Feel that power and strength that
comes from the Evergreen!
Light candles or light up the corners of your house/room.
This is in large part, why we bring out coloured lights and
decorate this time of the year.
Then kindly reassure yourself, you have gotten through tough
times in the past and you will get through this too, even if you don’t feel
that hope now. That is okay too. If you need to reach out to someone, please
do.
Be careful who you reach out to, they may be going through their
own difficult patch (Yes, even the most trusted and stalwart among us) or they
just may not be capable or the right person to reach out to. Comfort yourself.
Especially leading up to this powerful full moon and then
BEFORE THE NEW MOON.
Make yourself a nice cup of tea. Watch a good movie. Draw, paint, find your Neptunian release! Take a nap and journal your dreams.
This is the pressure that forms DIAMONDS.
Do some small project, even if it is to organize a drawer or
even a part of a drawer. Change the
sheets on your bed. Even that, can be effort
enough for some, if they are undergoing a hard time/depression.
BREATHE.
Take good care of yourself.
If you can manage, reach out to others and assist someone in need.
Sit back, feel the power of the mountain and her majesty, and all you’ve managed to get through, until
YOU ARE THE MOUNTAIN HERSELF.
And as my own guru taught me many years ago, see and witness
what frightens you, and say: ‘Now I have seen you, and now you can go away’.
The light is on its way. Hang in there.
