Saturn 
Ahhh Saturn. Liz greene's famous book on Saturn is called "Saturn: A new Look at an old Devil". Yup it's true Saturn
gets a bum rap and for good reason - he makes everything so darn hard! Saturn is the karmic teacher and when we are under
his influence we must learn our life lessons. He will show us our limitations and our fears. But when we are willing
to do the work it takes (Saturn loves hard work) he can also show us how to get past that which holds us back and then bring
us into mastery of those very same issues.
When Saturn is affecting your life he makes everything happen s-l-o-w-l-y.
Well he needs to do that because he also makes everything real/concrete. Creating structures simply takes time, so it's not
necessarily a bad thing. He can really be a blessing when you are trying to get things established in the 3rd dimension.
Saturn has been retrograde since the end of December. His direct station could be beneficial if you've been
dealing with any particular issues or situations that began around that time. And if so, after the 16th of this month you'll
finally begin to get things moving again.

Jupiter, Chiron and Neptune.. Oh my!
 But the end of May is when the fun really happens. We have a line-up of Jupiter, Chiron and Neptune all
at 27 degrees of Aquarius!
Not only are these planets hitting each other, But there forces will be even more exaggerated
due to the fact that during this line-up Neptune and Chiron will both station retrograde. And then Jupiter will do the same
only two weeks later. Those of us who have key planets or angles in the last degrees of Aquarius in our birth charts
should be in for some interesting stuff at that time. This line-up can be a great combination for spiritual festivities as
Jupiter has to do with the god force, Neptune relates to higher spirituality and Chiron with mentoring or healing. But
negatively this could come out as chaos, confusion, deception as Jupiter can expand on Neptune's elusive/deceptive qualities
while Chiron brings our wounded feelings to the surface.
