REFUSE TO COMPROMISE

Once you have done your due diligence, follow through with commitment and refuse to compromise.  As the saying goes, “Stick to One’s Guns”! 

 

We often make resolutions at the beginning of a New Year but few of us actually carry through.  We make a decision, but something comes along, and it just seems too difficult to continue, or we get sidetracked.

 

There are many excuses from “It’s too hard”, “I will surly fail”, “It’s not how I hoped it would be”, “it doesn’t really matter”, “I don’t have a problem”, and the list goes on and on.  More often than not, there are roadblocks to success, but most of these roadblocks stem from our mind. Our mind manufactures the excuse, and we follow blindly.

 

The resolution (or call it whatever you like) must be attainable, and you have to weigh this out in the planning process. You push yourself in the beginning but when the going gets tough, you give up. Is this laziness?

 

In reality, you hold yourself back by accepting the mind’s excuses (better known as empty chatter). Make a real commitment to your goals and take one step at a time.  It is not a race, it is a journey.

 

If your mind gives you an excuse to quit, ask it why? If it gives one of its ridiculous excuses, counter that excuse with a positive reason to continue. You are NOT your mind!

 

The old say goes, “nothing worth having comes easy”.  For every thought that stands in the way, there is a positive thought that helps you to achieve what you set out to do. 

 

Do not give up. Believe in yourself! Remind yourself to do your best. If you stumble, get right back up and step forward again. Why would you want to stay down?

 

After the first success, reaching the next goal will come a little easier because you will now have more confidence.  Refuse to compromise.  Stick to your guns. You’ve got this!

TRANSITING SATURN SQUARE NATAL NORTH NODE

This is a challenging position because not only is Saturn making a Square to the North Node, it is also making a Square to the South Node.  The area of life affected by Saturn will depend on the house placement of your North and South Node in the natal Astrology chart. Also, you should check which house Saturn is transiting through as well as Natal Saturn’s position and the aspects to it. This will give you all the information you need when it comes to deciphering what this time might produce. 

 

If, by chance, you have Transiting Saturn also in Opposition to a another planet in your natal chart,  you now have a Grand Cross which is far more difficult than just the Squares to the Nodes. We will look at the Grand Cross at a later date.  It should be noted that a Square is most definitely a difficult aspect, but because of its intensity, it also provides enough energy to push you to work your way through the adversity.  Challenges within the chart are put in place for us to overcome and in turn gain insight and valuable information and experience.

 

The Nodes are often tied to our path ahead, the road to follow (North Node) and what we have brought with us to make this task easier (South Node).  These nodes can also represent important people that help us along the way, when activated through transits and progressions.  Saturn has to do with challenges and life lessons. Often, we find obstacles in our way of progress, and we must find our solutions to these adversity.

 

Saturn is known as the task maker and is in place to help you or hinder you in progress, but it does, through its life’s lessons, provide you with more stamina and perseverance to stay on course. 

 

Again, the North Node is tied to our path ahead and the goals we have in place to achieve, and Saturn will now make you work for these objectives. As a result, the time during this aspect will most definitely require your attention and attentiveness.  There will be stumbling blocks along the way and stress as well especially if you resist the lesson at hand, but with the right attitude and a disciplined effort, you can achieve much from this transit’s influence.

 

With Saturn square natal North Node, you will feel stifled, but with the right approach, Saturn offers stability and structure that can stand the test of time. This is certainly a challenging time, but you can achieve the goals of your life’s path.

NEPTUNE TRINE MIDHEAVEN

When Transiting Neptune makes a Trine to our Natal Midheaven, it often opens the door to our visionary goals and aspirations. The mystic is often part of the process, that is for those so inclined.  Those individuals that have musical or creative potential will find that these abilities are now enhanced.

 

The MC or Midheaven has to do with our career as well as our goals and ambitions. When Transiting Neptune comes into contact by Trine aspect to our MC our dreams just might come true. Sometimes these things just fall into our lap. Other times, it takes a push from us to make things happen. Under the energies of this aspect, the potential is often in place for you to advance on some level.

 

Your status in life may blossom due to objectives that are now available (which prior to this time were just a dream).  Perhaps recognition for your creative abilities will materialize and those in authorities may now recognize your contributions. For those that have musical or acting abilities, the time that you are under the influence of this aspect may be the time to advance your cause. Again, this is the time to obtain recognition. You will have to take into consideration the natal aspects to the MC as well as any transits in place to get the full story, however.

 

There is something magical about what is unfolding but make sure you are seeing things as they truly are and that it is not just wishful thinking. Neptune, in a challenging position in the birth chart, can make things a little uncertain or obtuse. Ask your superiors what they think about your goals. You likely can get some good advice from clearheaded individuals not being influenced by this aspect. Advance with some caution if your birth chart and the ongoing transits make that suggestion.  Clarity can be an issue.

 

If you happen to have a Grand Water Trine attached to this position or at a later date when Neptune moves into Aries (when writing this information) creating a Grand Fire Trine, you can spring into action with the Fire Trine or find intuitive inspiration with the Water Trine.  This is a time where the energies flow easily and you can take advantage of what is in place for you. Push things into action and see what takes shape!

SATURN TRINE NATAL MIDHEAVEN

We will focus on Transiting Saturn trine the Natal Midheaven (MC) in a chart.

 

Saturn, even in trine to another planet or angle, still suggests some challenges although this is usually indicative of hard work and being disciplined in your endeavor.  The outcome, however, offered up by the trine is usually more positive, bringing with it more staying power and the construction of a solid foundation for what you are trying to accomplish.

 

When we are speaking of the MC or Midheaven in Astrology, this is often linked to career, goals, aspirations and life status.  In many cases, when a positive influence is connected to the MC, you often get recognition for your efforts.  In some cases, this can lead to being published, especially if the ninth house is also part of the profile or being noticed by the public.  Much will depend on the enterprise that we are speaking about.

 

If this is your career we are talking about, you may find that your superiors have now come to the realization that you are important to their success, and you may now receive some acknowledgement for your efforts.  If this is your own business, although hard work and potential slow progress might be indicated, the outcome looks promising especially if other indicators are telling the same story in your chart.  Don’t forget you need at least three aspects in the chart pointing in the same direction for something to manifest and become noticed.  Without this, the opportunity may slip by with only minor notice or effect.

 

If this has to do with life status and the seventh house or fifth house to a lessor degree are also part of the profile, perhaps you are now ready to move a relationship to the next level.  Marriage is possible and an elevated status may come because of this.  Now there are two of you making your mark in the world in your own way. 

 

If Pluto is also crossing the Ascendant or making a positive aspect, this may assist in what unfolds or if Pluto is being challenged, perhaps some ego intervention or power struggles might be indicated.  Much depends on the whole picture.

 

For those with a good Astrological understanding, I would like to emphasize that because of the delaying effects of Saturn, you must give your MC position a 2° orb after it is direct for this positioning to have an impact in your chart. For example, if you have your MC at 23°Libra when Saturn makes its trine, it will have to be 2° past being direct so at 25° either Aquarius or Gemini.  You may have some minor impact around the direct degree but 2° after is usually when the impact is the strongest.  If you have other indicators in your chart, this degree may be slightly off.  An example of this might be using the same delineation of 23° Libra as your MC and transiting Pluto was at the 23° and Transiting Uranus was also at the 23°.  I use Uranus because it is often a timer in Astrology.

TRANSITING SATURN SQUARE MIDHEAVEN

Currently (January 2024) Transiting Saturn is in early degrees of Pisces.  If you have your MC (Midheaven) in the Gemini or Sagittarius depending on the degree of your MC, you will be experiencing this square in your birth chart.  Saturn does not move into Aries on a permanent basis until February, 2026, so you will be under this influence at some point during Saturn’s stay in Pisces.

 

Pisces is a gentle, peace-loving sign and thrives on service on some level.  Pisces is spiritual and religious in many cases and is a strong believer in the unseen. It goes with the flow and avoids conflicts of any kind.  It is the dreamer of the Zodiac and many with strong emphasis of this sign in their charts are the visionaries, the mystics, and the escapists of the Zodiac.  The escapist characteristics stem from the want for peace and tranquility. Many with a strong Pisces’ influence can use drugs or alcohol to escape, at least temporarily, from some of the harsher realities of life.  Of course, you will have to review the whole chart to see if this holds true.

 

Saturn on the other hand has to do with reality and security and the stabilization of activities often related to securing structure that has a lasting potential.  Saturn is also associated with challenges, stumbling blocks, tedious obligations to get the job done and reliability.  Saturn often indicates hard work and discipline and is known as the teacher of the Zodiac. Saturn pushes us to move out of complacency and urges us to stand strong again the pressures of life.

 

When Saturn makes the challenging square aspect to our Midheaven, this often suggests that there are obstacles in the way.  Hard work is indicated, and setbacks are often part of the picture.  This can lead to concern and worry about where life is taking us, especially connected to our career, our goals, aspirations and our status in life.  Recognition may not come easily, and work can be disrupted or even challenged to such a degree that changes must be made.  There are no shortcuts, and you will not find the road easy.

 

If, however, you decide to challenge the situation and work towards building a solid foundation that appears to be falling apart, the rewards for hard work and diligence can be great.  Saturn insists that you work for a result even if you can’t see the end game in the near future.  Sturdiness and stability are often built into what you have committed yourself to accomplish.  You will learn patience, perseverance and gain inner strength even if you fall short of your endeavors as long as you keep working towards an end result.

 

It likely will not be an easy road and much will depend on the natal potential and how Saturn is aspected along with the other transiting aspects.  Stay the course and work your way through adversity and remain true to your ambitions.  Do not get caught up in any negativity that might befall you and stay strong and focused.
