Saturn Retrograde What You Need to Know to Prepare

OK Kids,

In case Mercury Retrograde wasn't enough for you, now we are in Saturn Retrograde. That gives us a both Jupiter and Saturn in Retrograde at the same time.

Yipee! (could you tell I was being totally sarcastic there?)

Saturn goes retrograde on the 18th - Saturn is the great task master whom some refer to as the Lord of Karma. Saturn is the teacher that holds you back after class to make sure you get the lesson fully learned. I know ... fun right.

When Saturn is in Retrograde motion its a time when karma is served. So basically, Saturn retrograde is a like a double decker karma sandwich, which may or may not be hard to digest.

Remember darling, Karma is only a form of energy. Like Saturn, Karma is bonded to time, Past, present, and future blend into one continuum. Karma is inherently well intended, it is not about crime and punishment, it is about insuring balance and the fulfillment of your souls growth through the lessons you came here to learn.

While Saturn is in retro-motion, the karma you will likely experience will relate to how careful and mindful you have been. The lessons of Saturn retrograde 2018 will take you to task for your thoughts and words and how you have shared them with others around you.

It is also worth noting that Saturn retrograde 2018 will be especially challenging if you have a past that's littered with teasing or being verbally abusive to people. Melancholy thoughts, bad news or loneliness could have a negative effect on your mental wellness. When Saturn stations direct in September 2018 you can use this energy to replace negative unproductive thoughts with positive ones that will help to unblock your energy.

If you allow it, This could be a significant period of positive transformation in your life.

Just an F.Y.I. Saturn goes retrograde in transit a little over every twelve months, lasting about 4½ months.... yaaaaay... or not. While Saturn is in Retrograde you will likely experience it is a time of limitation, worry and fear. Just remember my dear, even when things seem as though they aren't getting any better; this is only TEMPORARY.

During the months when Saturn was entering into the retrograde zone, you would have probably had to face some less than fun issues involving your obligations and responsibilities relating to people who depend on you and in your career.

Saturn retrograde asks you to allot some extra time to take inventory of all the important details and make sure everything in order before you proceed.

I have a feeling you could be challenged or tested in in the next little while in order to make sure you are ready to take on the extra responsibility and ascend to a higher level of responsibility. The lessons you learn are likely to be hard but they will be unbelievably valued later on. On the flip side of this fun little coin, you may need to make sure feelings of sadness or shyness haven't gotten out of control. If they have, then Saturn retrograde will offer you an opportunity to acknowledge any problems you are having and begin the healing process.

By the time Saturn stations direct, it is my hope that you are able come to terms with the any limiting issues and be ready for the next phase of your life. Do your best to invest in focusing your attention to details and remember that Saturn loves it when you play by the rules.

That's all for now my love.
