Saturn Merges with Neptune at the Aries Point of No Return
from Heal My Cosmos Podcast · host Jenilee Dowling
This is a serious check-in for the collective but since each of us make up the collective this is a serious call to check in with ourselves as well. We contribute to collective healing when we do our own healing. So many people look outside of themselves at the collective and have a lot to say about what needs to change but since we are a part of the collective as individuals- our biggest place of power to change the collective is to focus on our own individual healing. The nature of the check-in we are all being called into on February 20th goes like this: Saturn in Aries: Accepts that it’s go-time for a new chapter and is checking in on what it is you want to initiate next and assessing it’s ability to endure the long-term steady work necessary to ensure success. Concerns: Aries can start strong and burn out quickly. Saturn is wanting to teach Aries how to conserve his energy for the long-haul. Self-Reflection for Saturn in Aries: How can I make space to be bold and excited about what I am building next while also not burning out before I even start? How can I make myself proud by not doing too much too soon? Neptune in Aries: Accepts that it is no longer in it’s home-sign of Pisces and that the focus is starting a new chapter instead of ending a final chapter. For Neptune, the focus is still on dissolving what is not in alignment with your higher self, and in Aries it also extends to your physical body with a focus on your blood and your head. Concerns: Aries wants to act first think later. Neptune is wanting to teach Aries how to be led down the path of least resistance instead of charging ahead before taking the time to tune into higher guidance. Self-Reflection for Neptune in Aries: Where in my life do I feel impulsive? Can I take a step back to tune-into my higher self before moving forward? What is my body saying it needs now in order to sustain this change of pace? The conjunction or the merging of these two outer planets will have potent ripple effects in the collective and our personal lives as well. Since outer planets move so slowly the effects will be stretched out over the next few years and at that point we will have a more comprehensive understanding of the potency of this conjunction. It’s less about what is changing and happening this week and more about the intentionality we meet this week with. We must do our part to merge with these two planets that are merging. We have to consciously put our energy into the conjunction like we are planting a seed for our dream to grow. Saturn and Neptune in Aries are the perfect combination of energies to help us build our dreams from the ground up we just have to be clear with ourselves about what seed we are planting and be willing to take tangible steps to water the plant. In Astrology there are always many complex factors at play but since Astrology is ruled by Aquarius we can trust that there is a certain genius at play at all times in order to support the evolution process. For instance, during the Saturn-Neptune conjunction at zero degrees of Aries we also have the moon at 12 degrees of Aries adding a more personal jolt of raw emotional knowingness for each of us to sit with and feel into during the conjunction. The moon represents the public so there may be more unsolicited opinions from the peanut gallery around us on things that feel personal. The other astrology genius at play here during the conjunction is we still have 3 planets in Pisces plus the north node in Pisces which points at our highest collective potential at this time. That North Node is still in a conjunction with Venus in Pisces while Mercury in Pisces is preparing to go retrograde next week on the 25th and the Sun has just entered Pisces on the 18th. The genius part of this is we have this monumental conjunction at the zero point of Aries screaming new beginning as well as a stellium of Pisces planets giving us the gentle reminder that we must not step back into old patterns as comfortable as they may be. The retrograde period will be a time where we will get to witness ourselves and others be messy in this process of trying hard to move forward while falling down and having to get back up and start again. This is genius because we are human. We need the transitions. We are not built to leap into new chapters without subconsciously opening the door to the past. We need trial and error. We need grace. We must give it to ourselves because we are worthy of it and bonus it also sets an example for others to see that we get to give ourselves grace in this monumentous times of change.
