Saturn and the "Critical" Last Degree of Virgo First, my deepest apologies to the President for misquoting his Starting Tuesday next we'll be at the 29th and "critical" degree of As noted, collectively we experience three Saturn at the 29th degrees Many proclaim nothing new should be started with a planet traveling For whatever reason, there's a deadline quality assigned to a planet Consider that if an astrologer believes in investing and economic I am reminded of a confrontation I had about a year ago in Sedona.

remarks regarding his receipt of the Nobel Peace Prize. I should have
written in quoting him, "a call to action" instead of "a call to
arms," which is a far more peaceful statement than one including the
Mars-edged term "arms" that I applied. My apologies to the President
and my thanks to all who noted the misquote. It's great to know that
people are paying attention out there. While that may have sounded
sarcastic, it is not intended to be so. I am pleased that so many are
fastidiously following what's happening out there.
Saturn in Virgo... for the first time... uh, for the first time in
this current orbital revolution given that he's been there many times
since the beginning of time... er, it's the first of two direct
transits and one retrograde pass through the 29th degree of Virgo in
this current orbit, that is... the first of three of which two are the
same and one is different. Being precise requires so much attention.
It's wearying. Isn't it just easier to go through life unconscious,
avoiding details and getting just close enough to go Larry the Cable

eras while he traverses Virgo. The first era as noted above, lasts but
ten days. Saturn, retrograde, begins another such visitation
commencing April 7th of next year for slightly more than two weeks and
nailing down the final dirty details of this last degree passage
cycle, Saturn again trudges through the 29th row of Virgo's fields for
approximately a fortnight, commencing July 7th of 2010.
the 29th degree of a sign - a situation touted as stronger with
Saturn. That depends actually. If a person has the Moon at 29 Taurus
and Mercury at 29 Capricorn, it would be silly to pass up the grand
trine. Then there's the emotional crash prevention remedy set. Knowing
that a major effort winds down to completion, sometimes a creative
sort like an artist or a writer might actually start a new work of art
or manuscript just prior to polishing off the one in progress. The
effort here intends to circumvent a postpartum emotional downturn
related to the creative process. It seems applying a transit of the
29th degree of any planet works to support this line of thinking.
in a sign's last degree. It's like the hurried, frenzied last shopping
day before a major holiday. Or the quality appears with the claim that
if a task fails to be completed the world stops spinning (won't
happen). True, a transit through the last degree of any sign works to
wrap the energy of the planet's appearance in the specific sign with
successful accomplishment. While the thought that it is better to get
tasks completed that were started with a planet in a sign while the
planet is in that sign holds a significant level of philosophical
merit, it adds a lot of pressure. After all, when complete with one
sign, a planet migrates to the next sign, reflavoring collective
energy. If a task cannot be physically completed, Saturn - especially
in Virgo - frowns on slopping it done just to meet an agenda of
symbolic criticality. Perhaps extracting the significance of the
pressure urge assigned to the 29th degree and as astrologically
suggested, comprehending the message of this last planetary passage
before shifting gears does the trick.
Add the discerning (critical) nature of Virgo, the mundane
significance of Saturn critical agendas and the critically acclaimed
29th degree, and an unconscious charge condenses in the air. Testiness
could run amok if people failed to pay attention. Unfiltered judgments
and bias agendas might pollute the airwaves. One might be inclined to
maintain an emotionally charged position though the reality of life,
evidence of facts, consciousness or science fails to support it.
prosperity, the recent rise of the global markets delivers Pluto in
Capricorn's promise to transform the economics of the planet. If you
believe that investors are evil, Pluto in Capricorn and the transits
of this present October will bring global economic collapse, the end
of currency and desperate looting and scrounging for food in all
nations.
this time one of my tasks consisted of writing an astrological
assessment of the polling fluctuations leading up to the election. I
could not make one candidate lead or lag by my interpretations of the
planets. My desires on Earth did not compel the results I sought. At
the time of the confrontation, John McCain led in the polls. A woman
adamantly told me the polls would rise in McCain's favor and he would
win. When I suggested my view of astrology saw it differently, she
went nuts, loudly declaring that I was a pup when it comes to
understanding astrology and if I had studied with so and so as she had
done, I would be far more enlightened. I offered to wager with her
house on her convictions. On that matter, she declined.
scientific assumptions that could be derived from observation. My two
favorites: Bank clocks regulated air temperature. Whatever bank
temperatures indicated was the actual air temperature (well now they
regulate economic climates); Wind is caused by trees exercising their
branches. An astute observer will note that no wind can ever be felt
when trees are not engaged in jazzercise. A good bit of the thinking
out there right now is just like this. Facts are distorted and reality
skewed to support highly charged agendas. The really bad part of
making Mobius strips out of truth occurs when one ceases to be able to
discern promoted agenda from reality. An added hazard occurs that in
rendering comments and such via the Internet, one can render opinions
anonymously as if enjoying the protection of Pluto's helmet of
invisibility and discounting any sense of accountability. If the world
were enduring a Jupiter-Chiron-Neptune conjunction, all of this could
really be a problem. Oh. Right.

things. But if he were to Twitter, he would feel no obligation to use
all character spaces available. He'd simply lay out his solutions to
the prevailing planetary signatures.

filtered with objective observation, renders consciousness. In the
interest of impeccability, Saturn recommends striving for and
proceeding with conscientiousness and consciousness. Criticality
