It is important to note that when transiting Saturn is making a conjunction to the North Node it is also making an opposition to the South Node. The nodes are always 180° apart.
Saturn
while in transit and in the natal chart (unless very favorably aspected by
other natal positions) quite often speaks of challenging situations. The timing seems off when we are attempting
to move ahead with our lives. Things
seem to move too slowly, and we often have obstacles to overcome along the
way. Our objectives seem to be met with delays,
and it seems to take a lot of work and a sustained effort just to move to the
next step in our objectives.
When
transiting Saturn conjuncts our North Node (Life’s path forward) and makes an
opposition to our South Node (a past life or early situations in our life), life
will not move the way we want it to. We
might have a lot of work to do when it comes to our North Node and others seem
to stand in the way or cause us strife when we are speaking of the South Node.
The North
Node speaks directly of our path in this life and although this road is foreign
to us, we are meant to pursue it regardless.
When Saturn conjuncts the North Node, wherever we place our goals to move
towards in life is thwarted and obstacles seem to present themselves holding us
up or not allowing us to move in the intended direction. We can feel frustrated because others seem to
slow us down or stand in the way or tell us that they know better and we should
perhaps do what they say. The house
position of our North Node will define clearly what area of life is involved in
this situation.
This energy
may last as long as 6 months and if Saturn goes into retrograde, it will last
even longer, although while in retrograde we may find that there is less restriction
and things move along better. Saturn in
retrograde works much better than while it is in direct motion, unlike most of
the other planets.
Knowing how
Astrology can be applied to our lives can have a direct effect on when we move
ahead and when we decide to stand back and wait. This certainly does not mean that we are at
the mercy of fate and that Astrology will dictate as we always have freedom of
choice. We may find solace and solutions however when we understand the
workings of the universe and have an understanding of the science of Astrology.
Saturn
conjunct natal north node will certainly have created havoc with our plans for
our life’s path but it will have helped us build a solid foundation and with
the right amount of sustained effort, it helps us along the way. Saturn is the teacher of the Zodiac and can
provide great results as long as we are willing to do the work required.
