Saturn Turns Direct

Transiting Saturn has been retrograde (in apparent backward motion) since June 17, and will finally station direct (0° Pisces 31') on November 4 at 12:07 am. PDT (7:07 GMT).

Once Saturn begins to move forward- the capacity to achieve our long term goals, and manifest our dreams, visions, and ideals- may slowly but steadily improve- with plenty of hard work, focus, and discipline. Saturn is associated with responsibilities- and our ability to respond to the challenges that naturally arise in life- while the Saturn archetypal principle informs the process of maturation, which continues to end of our days.

The October 8-9 Mars-Pluto Square

On October 8-9, the square between Mars (28 Libra) and Pluto (28 Capricorn) intensifies power dynamics, and indicates the possible release of explosive, or titanic energies. Particularly, as Pluto is about to station direct on October 10-11, after a retrograde period that began on May 1, 2023.

The meme that keeps on giving.
