Well, the world up until this point, has revered the word. With Uranus in Pisces and Neptune in Aquarius until 2012, there is a move to spiritualize science and codify spirituality. Basically, the distinctions are becoming blurred as we understand that facts and truth are not the same thing.

Yes, Saturn is going to represent what the status quo thinks is important and in this culture, true, speaking English or marketspeak, has been important up until now.
Hopefully that will change.

But of course, communication comes in all forms.

Because you were born at lunchtime, your Saturn does actually fall in the third house of communication, elementary school, early childhood so you are “classically” representing the Saturn in Gemini/3rd House archetype.
Saturn in the third can reference “learning disabilities”, dyslexia in our standardized school system which does not allow for any individuality or flying off the charts in either direction.

Also your Saturn connects to Pluto (power, control, abuse) in the 7th House of partners. Whenever you had difficulty speaking, you were damaged by others.
(You will always have Pluto in the 7th House, btw, so you need to learn how to pull in people who change/influence you in a positive way, rather than a destructive way). You will probably get more clarity around this in the next year actually.

Saturn holds a lot of sway in your chart as it rules three houses in your chart (for some of us, it is two). Growing up you would have felt ostracized in groups, not part of the zeitgeist, and dissed for being yourself. (11th, 12th and 1st house of self).

Good news here is that Saturn ruling these houses has made you the person that you are. You were “forced” to find another way. Your art is a healthy expression of how to use your 11th house of groups, vision, the future, humanitarian ideals and the 12th house (spirituality, inspiration from Source,
collective unconscious) and 1st house of identity (you’re Aquarius rising).

Neptune and Jupiter (planets of creativity and spirituality) are at the top of your chart so that is what the world sees. (Yet, it’s possible as a younger person, you may have been perceived as a space cadet). Did your father “disappear” around the age of 5?
Anyway, art and inspiration (and teaching) are your destiny.

Your feeling of awakeness or awareness of a new consciousness speaks to your Sagittarius Moon on the Galactic Center, the so-called center of the universe. People who have points there are meant to be channels and yes, communicators, of the new universal consciousness that is pervading our planet. (Pluto was on that point all through 2007 so I would imagine a difficult heartbreak or emotional loss).

I do think 2012 will bring in a major shift. While I know there is much focus on it because of the Mayan Calendar and Nostradamus, I certainly don’t think the world will end, but rather the world as we know it (thankfully) will end. I think there will be an energy/consciousness shift and those that can’t make the shift will leave the planet in some form or another.
Astrology supports this with many transits, one of which will be Uranus (planet of awakening, shock and awe) moving into Aries, beginning a new era around freedom and independence, a new world so to speak.

Lastly, some schools of astrological thought look to Saturn as karma. We may have misused or not used this function properly in past lifetimes. Saturn in Gemini in this context could say you were a very eloquent speaker, teacher, salesperson who could talk anyone into anything. There may have been a missing moral component and tendency to deception or being deceived (by family members).
This is not to “blame the victim” but for us to get that we have been on all sides of the story, played all different levels of the game and the current lifetime is the opportunity to bring balance to this function. (I don’t mind thinking I might have been an asshole in other lives because it allows me to have compassion for letting so many into my life this time around!) Just a thought and in your case, a feeling resonance could confirm if this were at all a possibility.

Anyway, good luck in the New Year. Last tidbit, with Jupiter going into your first house in April, it’s one of the best years to meet people and be seen. You can make contacts easily because you are wearing magical fairydust and people see you in your best light. For you, this will last until FEbruary 2011, a very long but productive time to build upon. All the best!

I always felt stupid, well, basically because even as a child my communication was different. I stuttered and couldn’t pronounce words - and my mind goes so fast that…it just doesn’t come out right. Even till this day it takes a lot to speak clearly. But being frustrated with communicating, speech and English in general, I basically said fuck you to anything English - and just concentrated on my art.

I never thought of myself as a writer - and probably never will. But I have a deep boiling urge to express - and in art, there are no rules. One let’s their inner energy, their soul, speak. I’m off the cuff like that.

Some how, between where my “soul” speaks and it coming out my mouth….the translation is lost. And this world, America, bases intelligence on the person’s ability of English.

My perception…or feelings, is based on how I’ve been treated.

I do understand there is a thing about free will…so I get the “in a way it isn’t truth”. We are presented with facts of energy and how the outcome could play out, and at least 2 choices…

You take care as well..

ps,
But I do have a question. I go through these cycles of looking inward…spiritual. Well. I know the winter solstice of 2012 is the alignment of the Earth, Sun ,and the center of our galaxy, and a marking of a new calender period in Earth. And we are entering the 5th known time period/cycle according to that calender.

I just have always felt like I was waiting…and the closer we get, the more awake I feel. I guess I was just wondering if you have anything to say on that?

If you want to find out more about where your Saturn is (what house) and what areas of life it will influence, I need your birth date, TIME and location of birth. And if you prefer that this information remain private, please feel free to write me at patricekamins@mac.com and I will get back to you.

So rovermom, your supposed insecurities about your ideas would not have to pervade your entire existence but could show up in certain areas of life, such as work or with siblings. Depends on the location in the chart.

And remember, in a way, it isn’t the truth (i.e. you’re NOT stupid) but that might be your perception of yourself.

Take care!

“Yet, her Saturn in Taurus may be in the 12th House which might explain her desire to work on spiritual manifestation as opposed to monetary issues. If this were hypothetically true and she has a Gemini Ascendent, then her Capricorn/Saturn ruled houses would be her 4th and/or 5th houses. By doing her Saturn (Saturn in Taurus, deciding what you value), she would improve the quality of life in her home (4th House) and love relationships and/or creative projects (5th House).”

You are right on. I do have the desire to work on spiritual manifestations over monetary issues. I want to work on things that I value the most. And its funny that you mention improving the quality of life in my home. I haven’t felt grounded since I moved to Chicago 16 months ago and part of it is because I haven’t made my apartment my home. Its just an empty apartment with the bare necessities. I need a real home. (That’s where the creative project would come in.) I am in desperate need for romance so I want to work on putting myself out there and learn to date. I also need to make an effort to meet people and make new friends.

Thanks for the input and the “therapy session.” It is most appreciated. I am looking forward to this year.

Wishing you and the VP gang a wonderful New Year!

Peace,
Angie

My exact DOB is August 20, 1969 born at 4:20 PM.
I find horoscopes, astrology and sextrology so interesting. Can you recommend any literature for this novice?

I have felt that this is the year for more enlightenment and rebirths of sorts. Money matters just get in the way so I don’t like to focus on that. But you have to do what you have to do in order to have peace of mind and balance. I’m working on that.

Thank you!

Peace,
Angie

Woo Hoo! Saturn in Taurus in the house!

Wishing you a Divine 2009, as well.

Peace,
