The Lightning-Struck Tower
October 1st, 2008
Have whirlwinds of change left you wanting to hide in your closet? You’re not alone! This month, the planetary powerhouses Saturn and Uranus are lining up for a once-every-45-years cosmic tug-of-war… and we are the rope! Saturn rules tradition, experience, authority and rules, while Uranus heralds progress, innovation, rebellion and change. The last time these two faced off was the mid-1960s; for the next two years we can expect a similar period of intense social questioning, reaction and change. Look out! The first of five exact oppositions falls on Election Day 2008.
This is an excellent time to break out of habits and patterns that no longer serve you. Take a breath, seek an overview of your world, and focus on the essentials. Reach out to other people; they will remind you that you’re not the only one on this crazy ride.
