Saturn is the planet of “what I fear.” It rules the gamut of anxiety from arachnophobia to the inescapable dread that all things must end. We often accuse Saturn of bringing misfortune, which it does, but those misfortunes pale in comparison to the great lengths we will go in order to distance ourselves from anything that hints at misery. Saturn isn’t responsible for the hardening of hearts, the finger pointing, and the vilifying of the less fortunate. People are. On November 18th the Sun will make its last aspect to Saturn in Capricorn. This is the time to ask yourself: where are you with your fear? Are you in charge of it or has it taken charge of you? One never masters one’s fears. It’s psychologically impossible, but you can certainly make peace with them. Fear is a chronic condition that everything on this planet experiences from spiders to CEOs. It’s something we all share which is actually a good reason for drawing close rather than pulling away.
