SARAH VARCAS from her Astro-Awakenings.co.uk shares:
“Saturn in Aquarius reminds us that even the oft-uttered refrain ‘everything is happening as it should’ doesn’t mean there’s nothing to be done but let it all unfold.
“We don’t download awakening, we cultivate it, nurture it, question those aspects of self that mitigate against it.
“And in doing so we discover that wise action in this moment can change the next.
“That by being present to the full triumph and catastrophe of the human experience we can recalibrate it and shape the course of history rather than simply be shaped by it.
“And we’re currently living at a historical crossroads of monumental proportions.
“To choose well we need to harness the power of Saturn’s journey into Aquarius to engage courageous thought and nurture fresh perspectives.
“Not to stifle debate and feed the fear of dissent.
“Black Moon Lilith and Chiron were conjunct the Sun when Saturn first entered Aquarius in March 2020...
“They affirm the healing radiance of the human spirit and the unadulterated power unleashed when we remember who we really are – divine through and through, and equally human. Of this world and all others everywhere.
“This power cannot be diminished by tyranny or lies, by manipulation or fear.
“It is unassailable. Always. And it knows the truth. We know the truth..."
We are in a time of collective and personal awakening to what has been in the shadows, oppressive and imbalanced across our implemented systems as well as our personal myopic realities.
The process of awakening can be painful, because new realities precipitate trajectory shifts.
In the process of things dismantling, disassembling, and crumbling, we can feel unstable and this is why change is often so dreaded.
But we are the changemakers of this time, and we are here at this time for a reason.
We each carry our own truth, but a universal truth is that we’re all here ultimately to learn to love.
All those who have had crossed over and come back through near-death experiences, and those who are mediums between worlds echo this truth: Life is a school of learning, and we are here to learn to love.
At this time, like Rumi said, that is our task, and not only to love but to seek to dissolve “all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.”
It is also a time to have courage and not be afraid to communicate, even as it makes us feel increasingly more vulnerable.
Vulnerability is the straight path of the heart, the direct access point.
Gemini continues to teach us that through communication we can heal our separateness and isolation.
As we’ve heard it said, the more difficult the subject, the more healing is to be gained from talking about it.
In what ways can we speak from our experience like elders, like our grandmothers and grandfathers, with compassion but with strength that illuminates another facet to be taken into account?
Like Einsten said “we cannot solve our problems with the same level of thinking that created them.”
Let’s expand our thinking and let’s get massively creative with new ways to implement change.
Imagine:
You wake up and immediately feel into the pleasure of being alive. You give gratitude in prayer and praise for another opportunity to be alive, another chance at being human. You look into the mirror and look into your own eyes, greeting the ancestors in your body who are living through you. You are the well wishes of your ancestors after all. “You are the dream your ancestors dreamed would free them” (Jana Lynne Umipig).
Imagine:
You’re in grade 11. To begin each school day, you pair up with another classmate & exchange uplifting words of affirmation. You take turns saying the following, out loud, to one another, while looking each other in the eyes:
“You are a highly creative and powerful spiritual being having a human experience. I see the divine in you. As much as you are divine, you are also of this world: chronically human, and prone to making mistakes. I honour your life, and I believe in you.”
Imagine:
It’s 2020 in a global pandemic and a young black boy kneels down at a protest to protect Black Lives in front of a line of heavily armed cops. People chant “DON’T SHOOT” repeatedly behind him. A young white girl with a backpack runs in front of him as the line of feds move forward. She uses her white body as a shield, standing big like an X, between the young black boy and the police. She looks one cop dead in the eye as he approaches her and she says: “YOU ARE POWERFUL. YOU ARE LOVED. YOU ARE DIVINE, JUST LIKE ME, JUST LIKE HIM. WHY ARE YOU CHOOSING TO YIELD YOUR POWER IN THIS WAY? DO BETTER. CHOOSE DIFFERENTLY.” The cop drops to his knees and cries.
