Saturn conjunct Neptune
The current Saturn/Neptune conjunction is where dreams and reality collide. Saturn is all about structure and form, responsibility, respect and authority. Neptune on the other hand is boundless and tends to blur the lines between what is real and what is imagined.
This Saturn and Neptune combination can be ambiguous. It can either provide structure and form to ideals and the imagination OR make it really difficult to find focus and direction. Generally, it creates a somewhat pessimistic mood where we fear the worst but hope for the best.
With Saturn/Neptune in Aries it can give rise to authoritarianism where the self-serving interests of a few create an environment of confusion, deceit and mistrust.
For the individual, Saturn/Neptune in Aries brings with it restraint and sacrifice. Your own priorities will now become secondary to the needs of another. Saturn takes its time in bringing about change so the inevitability of the situation you’re now faced with will come as no surprise. You will have to deal with it as best you can knowing that your time, freedom and flexibility will be impeded as a result. Whether the sacrifice is made willingly, reluctantly or dutifully it’s important to be realistic about how much you can commit and seek help if needed. Feelings of frustration and resentment can arise through overwhelm and exhaustion if you overextend yourself to unrealistic levels. This situation does not have to be a huge burden if managed well.
In Cosmobiology the Saturn/Neptune midpoint represents the health axis and undermining circumstances. It’s therefore important to look after yourself as best you can so that your own health doesn’t suffer. You also don’t want other areas of your life falling apart through neglect or inattention.
This can be a difficult transit to work through, and its influence will be around until the middle of next year. Be patient and put some strong boundaries in place. You will get through to the other side.
