Tonight at 10:58pm CDT Saturn leaves Capricorn and enters Aquarius where it will spend the next two to three years! Just like when it was in Capricorn, Saturn is especially comfortable here as is it one of the two signs Saturn naturally rules. Even though it is comfortable in both signs, Saturn in Aquarius will be quite different than Saturn in Capricorn.
When Saturn was in Capricorn it focused its energy on tradition, rules, and authority. Saturn in Aquarius on the other hand is more focused on being idealistic and liberated because Aquarius is an air sign. If Saturn in Capricorn was authoritarianism, Saturn in Aquarius is socialism. It wants to figure out the rules of life so it can help the group. It believes that we always have to keep the greater good in mind, and uses it’s intellectual power to that end. Aquarius wants to set high standards, and Saturn wants us to meet them.
Prioritize living in accordance with your ideals. Make sure your actions line up with your thoughts and feelings. If you’ve been one way with some people, and another way with others, or just not acting true to yourself, that is going to become increasingly difficult while Saturn is in Aquarius. Things will go much better for you if you truly live your values, consistently.
We may sink our heels in when it comes to the right thing to do. People may feel especially emboldened that they know the truth or the right way to do something. Try to avoid being a know-it-all even though I know that is a tall order during a pandemic. And maybe we’re not always going to achieve that. Life during a pandemic means we don’t have time to be patient with people who aren’t interested in the greater good. When you do have moments of frustration, focus on what you can do to contribute. We need each other more than ever.
