Practical affections. Sweet dreams. The peace of psychic protection.

I’ve noticed that with Saturn in Pisces, I have more trouble sleeping. Even so, with Venus repeatedly touching the cold rings of this mighty gas giant, my dreams remain saccharine (mostly). Venus in other words, takes the edge off of what would otherwise be an unpleasant experience. She fades the harsh edges, blurring the boundaries between good and bad, positive and negative.

There remains an alternative quality to this transit however. Where Venus dulls the sharp blade of Saturn, Saturn awakens the shadow aspects of Venus. What remains to be confronted? How can we deepen our capacity for love? Can we make peace with the fact that our paths may not always be filled with peace?

The way to expand, to protect, is not by dwelling in the realm of the eternally positive. You must confront the things you seek to avoid, not for the sake of wholeness, but for the sake of the journey.

& Mercury Direct

Clarifying desires. Breaking free from imagined bonds. The way forward.

Authenticity resides in the now. It’s the process of unravelling how we feel and what we feel in the present moment. It allows us to move forever onwards, towards our purpose and our destiny. The appeal resides in its ability to guide us; we are sold the idea that authenticity will concretely show us where we are supposed to go.

Of course in reality, things prove to be more difficult than they appear on the surface. Often (to me anyways) authenticity feels less like riding a steady wave, and more like getting caught in a whirling current. You have to fight hard to get back to the shore, battling sand and sea to make it out alive. Perhaps there’s even a moment where you’re content to drift off to sea. There’s a mild bliss to the idea of forever wandering the ocean depths, lost in a chorus of wandering souls.

To finally break free from the grip of the sea feels like a truly radical act. It is a radical act. It is also a simultaneous commitment to continue to break free each and every time someone tries to shame you or persuade you from being anything but yourself.

Continue to be radical. Continue to be committed.
