Saturn is the dedicated ruling
planet of Capricorn, and is recognized as the
planet of determination! It has also been referred
to as the planet of Karma, when our actions determine
our destiny! Saturn's influence is all about
learning from our past, and educating the present
for
a better future. There are no easy ways to learn
either, as Saturn demands commitment and hard
work from us in order to achieve our ambitions!
Saturn expects nothing short of absolute discipline and dedication, no matter how high we may
aim or how big a task we may set!
Saturn urges us to accept as much responsibility
as we can handle and succeed. We should not expect
any favors from Saturn's influence either. Hold
ups, frustrations, and overcoming difficulties
along the way to success are all part of the
procedure. Saturn wants us to learn remember,
and the best way to learn is sometimes the hardest
way! Saturn prompts us to find alternatives to
our old habits, so we can become wiser and
benefit all!
Saturn's energy is masculine,
and much like the structure of the ringed planet,
it represents structure in our lives! Its influence
signifies a conservative and careful approach
to situations wherever possible. Just as it urges
us to take on challenges, it also recognizes
that we will have no choice but to overcome many
forms of hardship. In essence, we are tested
to beat tough times and endure bad luck along
with any associated depression. Only then can
we achieve our ambitions, through perseverance
and new ways of solution based thought. The management
of our time and planning is very important to
Saturn!
Saturn ensures we receive the recognition we deserve for our ability to stand so strong in the face of adversity. Wisdom comes with age and it also makes for a great reward! It is also an even better gift to pass onto others! Saturn allows us to assume a more authoritative role in life. Saturn is the second of the four gaseous giant planets, and is about 80 times the size of Earth. It is so far away, that it takes 29.5 earth years to orbit The Sun, and remains in each astrology sign for 2.5 years at a time. When Saturn returns to a sign, it signifies a major event in a life!
