WAITING FOR GODOT AND ASTROLOGY
By Barry Rosen
Now we have a number of troublesome transits happening with the Saturn /Solar conjunction and combustion, Mars out of bounds and Mercury retrograde in Pisces and we’re transferring towards the Pisces Stellium into early April with 6 planets in Pisces.
Sure it is going to get higher and we nonetheless have exalted Venus defending us and Jupiter is now sturdy within the D9 Chart within the Most cancers part the place religious knowledge and good luck prospers.
The religious masters remind us to reside within the current and I’m all the time writing about not being victimized by the planets. I’m reminded of educating faculty literature and a really great French play that’s nonetheless fairly fashionable, Ready for Godot
Samuel Beckett’s seminal play involving two hobo-like characters ready for the arrival of Godot, an embodiment of dwelling in hope of the longer term slightly than embracing the current and the existential void is a trademark in world literature and a reminder of our plight on the planet.
The planets are colleges and academics and their transits arrange karmic circumstances in order that we are able to do it higher this time. It’s like Invoice Murray within the 1993 film, Groundhog Day. Will he study kindness and compassion this time or proceed to get up the identical grumpy outdated weatherman who treats individuals terribly? Are we going to make new and higher selections this time or repeat the identical patterns and undergo?
I usually get individuals ready for his or her subsequent huge cycle to start out. It is going to be higher when my Jupiter interval comes and once I depart Rahu. If I can simply get out of my Ketu interval, then my life will get higher. Many instances that is years down the street and the brand new cycle might not carry all that it hoped for.
There are uncommon charts and uncommon durations the place all the pieces is engaged on all cylinders. Life is slightly combined. Relationships may match in a single interval however well being and work are challenged. Life is so usually an advanced combine and you’ll see this within the Varga or divisional chart the place Jupiter interval might shine with a powerful placement within the D-10 or profession chart however relationships might not work.
The malefic planets that trigger us struggling are in the end great highschool coaches inflicting short-term ache to maneuver us on to changing into a better individual. The problem is whether or not we’re prepared to embrace our challenges and alter our lives and make troublesome choices or will we act like Didi and Gogo within the Beckett play and hold ready for the arrival of Godot that can by some means magically save our lives?
The malefic planets are our mates if we embrace their classes and that takes the braveness of a powerful Mars and the need to battle and transfer out of our struggling and just a little grace and assist from Venus and Jupiter is all the time welcome. When they don’t seem to be round, we nonetheless have to search out the vitality, readability, and braveness to maneuver out of our issues. God is there to assist if we’re prepared to take step one and alter our lives.
Extra importantly, we cannot reside our lives ready for one thing to get higher sooner or later. Now we have to make modifications within the current and be higher individuals, do the suitable factor, and never make the identical errors. The transits will repeat yearly or so to check us and see if we now have risen to the event to make new selections and create a greater life.
Sure, it’s good to have good transits however the malefics are additionally our mates they usually pressure us to study troublesome classes. Everybody fears Saturn as a result of he teaches duty, self-discipline, onerous work and endurance, and stability amid struggling. After all, we might slightly get together on a regular basis and search pleasure with Venus however in case you go on trip and meet people who find themselves rich and drink all day on the seashore, and in case you get to know them, their lives are sometimes slightly empty. Once you meet individuals who have gone by numerous Saturn occasions, they’ve nice depth and there’s something alive and contemporary and genuine about them. Struggling builds character and makes us the nice folks that we’re.
Folks usually suppose that yagyas and mantras are magic bullets that can remedy all their issues. They might help very a lot however they principally loosen the grip on our thoughts in order that we are able to take motion and transfer by our points — however we now have to take motion to create a greater life for ourselves. We nonetheless need to make these robust selections and we are able to create new good karma for the longer term by serving to others and tithing and that is important.
So embrace your Sade Sat, your Saturn interval, your Rahu, and your Mars and Ketu, and notice they’re your good mates. They’re the robust coaches in school that’s molding you right into a profitable athlete that can pay dividends down the street. Stay within the current second and revel in no matter planetary items which are there. There are all the time items and typically we now have to dig deep to see that however the items are there. Take pleasure in and see the sport on this great world and loosen the grip of struggling with yoga and meditation and good deeds and Godot might lastly arrive even in your Saturn interval. Have an amazing day!
