For those of you just tuning in, Saturn is about to move from Virgo into Libra. There are about a thousand-million posts on this site about the situation. Seriously, I just tried to find one to link to. Too many.
But my point: I want to take up a collection to help fund Saturn’s earlier shift into Libra. It will currently be in about 28 hours from now. And no, thank you Saturn, I do NOT want to go and precisely measure that so as to be more precise and poised in my delivery of astrological information. I want to somehow fund Saturn to get into Libra NOW. Even go haunt orbit in a different galaxy. They say a cool new one was just discovered. I personally would trust travel information from N.A.S.A & so you’d think Saturn would find it fab!
Because right now, it’s like Saturn lingers in the last degrees of Virgo like a should-go-on hols anal-compulsive type stays on at the office, hanging out just to straighten piles of papers on the desk, write guilting narking-off notes and hack into peeps personal shit to see if they are slacking off or not.
For the next 28-ish hours, the Saturn-Virgo vibe intensifies…Go already! What will it take? How much $$$? Or is this the sort of complicated operation that needs to be measured in wheelbarrows of gold delivered to the crossroads at 3.10 am? Or SOULS?! Saturn please don’t creep me out and start on the mortality thing. I am onto the taxes I swear. Let’s leave it there for now.
Saturn Vision is strange. People seem strangely really old or ultra young. And not old in a good way: Decrepit, bodies like wind-gnarled old fig trees on some oceanic cliff, struggling up the road in black robes OR really YOUNG as in caramel limbed leaping about with youthful joy and boundless hope. Rich – as in driving past laughing in convertibles or Poor to the extent of squabbling over five cents in the gutter. This is how Saturn makes you think.
The Inner Voice Of Saturn in Virgo Goes Something Like This:
Stop Whinging, it’s so immature…Well, you wouldn’t feel so “stressed” if you were more organised and stuck to your goals…You are not working that hard, have you ever measured the hours you spend doing actual WORK?…I think you will find a lot of it is non-essential activity…You are confusing the stress from your organisational failures with the stress you might feel if you put in a more solid performance…No, I am not counting the gym as non-essential activity although, why you bother when you undo all the good work with your weak and unruly approach to nutrition is beyond me…Nonsense. It is a simple matter of self-control…No, you need to develop it. To work on it. Which would take a work ethic….
Dear Saturn,
We are Virgo-ing out here. We get it. Don’t bother with that shitty looking skirting board. We are already initiating a regular skirting board check to ensure that the all important border between the floors and the wall is not ignored again. Yes, the memo about how skirting board stains left untreated can lead to the floor detaching from the walls and the whole house sinking into hell WAS received. Thank you. And I even dreamed about it. Thank you for that extra reminder. Sometimes I forget that you are a Deity.
Enjoy Libra and please click through to the NASA link above to check out that HOT new galaxy…

You have written all my feelings & thoughts above.
Sooo true, all of it!
Right at this minute i have a Libran friend guitar player, practising next to me.
Beautiful music. -
I am a little creeped out about how accurate that voice is…only you might need to add the ‘be faster, go harder, do better/more…’
Feel a little like this:

Yes, learnt a lot from Saturn in Virgo, but, God, will be so glad when it goes into Libra!
-
LOL mystic your Inner Voice of Saturn in Virgo is so spot-on. Somewhere recently you wrote (daily mystic email?) that we should squeeze the goodness out of the last of this transit by listing the lessons learnt since Sept 07. Well i seem to have internalised that inner voice… (will be soooo glad to see the back of it. But it has been very useful). And I have learned that if I am following a passion, I *do* have a work ethic, and through better organisation I can avoid stress. Magic!

Do you suppose NASA might set up a shuttle service to the other galaxy?
You’d think they could come up with a better name for it than JKCS041. Must have been named by a Capricorn. Why can’t they name it Atlantis or Chocolatia or St Kilda or something?
-
i vote chocolatia! with streams of dark, milk and white chocolate traversing the planets…
is it named after the initials of the one who found it???
or do the letters stand for something?
jkcs…..just kidding cease seekingthats some serious long haul DVT….

Oh Mystic, you are a poet! At work I summarised one of Australia’s top cultural analyst’s insight into a certain issue. She was at a meeting and her words were gold.
The senior exec emailed me in response to my meeting summary and said “Just record action items”.
This left me cold.
Then my immediate boss called me into the office and said I should be less emotional at work and not take heed of the aforementioned academic’s “rantings and ravings”.
I responded, “OK. Sure. Can you just tell me what’s not emotional about the phrase ‘rantings and ravings’?”.After reading your post, Mystic, I wonder if my boss’ imperative was symptomatic of Saturn digging its heels into Virgo…..
Saturn is a great teacher when it comes to playing things by the rules. Approaching tasks with rigour. I love that about Saturn but not when it is restrictive for the sake of limitations without meaningful purpose.
Anyway, Mystic, a very helpful post…..Thank you.
-
Nice comeback.
So why did they invite an expert if they just wanted to record ‘action items’. Bollocks. Was it to give the appearance they give a shit and are doing something when they don’t and won’t?
Cynical, moi?
-
You’re not cynical Uber. You’re spot on. Keeping up appearances and all that….

Going to list those lessons and glue them to my forehead, put them on my fridge, make them a screensaver whatever it takes to learn. Feel like I’m dragging my heart behind me through these last hours like a ball and chain.
-
You trust NASA??!
-
LOL….NO !

Must say that my life is much more organized and scrubbed since Saturn nagged me constantly during Virgo to get my sh*t together. All my Vitamins are lined up in alphabetical order. Now, may I please have my diploma ?
-
You live in my head!
I cannot stand another moment! Please .. with all due respect LEAVE already!!!
So can you give us an idea of what Saturn in Libra might sound like? Something.. “Anything” to get us through this last fuqing mile of the endless S in V marathon!!
Big Love!

So spot on, you must be in my head to, only mine is “why are you sitting exusted starring at that box” get up, cook dinner, do study, help son find better job and get out in that garden and get it cleaned up!!!! you wuos!! your’ve only work 10 hours today, how can you be tired??
And i have sun cap and Virgo rising……. there are days where i could hide from both….. and nights….. more about cap in libra too please…. lighter dreams? -
You know, the first year I wasn’t aware of Saturn being in my sign. The second year I learned it and LOVED having Saturn in my sign. Could not get enough Saturn! Just wanted to work work work! Now? I have to write another essay my eyes are going to start bleeding. And I DO have to write two essays. I just don’t think it’s possible to write an essay with gauze over my eyes, Saturn. I need to relax for a little bit.
-
Mystic you ROCK! You make all this stuff so clear and REAL to me. I love your letter to Saturn, it bloody hilarious! We are so lucky to have you. Anyone who’s not an Alpha subscriber that’s reading this, seriously do yourself a favour, you wont regret it!

Love your gravatar

Thanks! It only took me like a year to figure out how to do it!

“You are confusing the stress from your organisational failures with the stress you might feel if you put in a more solid performance”
Waaaaah! How did you see inside my brain? Everything I haven’t done well enough over the past few years feels like it’s crashing down.
Thank heavens my performance review isn’t for another month (breathes into paper bag til Saturn is in Libra)
-
Well obviously for the past two years I’ve been sticking my fingers in my ears and going “I can’t hear you I can’t hear you I can’t hear you” when it comes to Saturn in Virgo … so he helpfully sent me a bunch of his underlings in the form of a plethora of Virgos to assist me. Awwwww
-
Saturn’s minions….
-
yes but they’re so nice I find it impossible to ignore them *sigh*

Saturn has been hovering over my pluto and uranus these last couple of months. Really horrible. I had a standup argument with someone over family matters the other day and I still have no idea whether I was setting boundaries or overreacting to perceived intrusion. No idea whatsoever. I hope saturn and Libra can help ease the pressure.
-
Major brainwave: There’s only one good reason for being organized and planning ahead and leaving enought time and eating well and getting enough sleep/exercise/water: not because you “should” or because everyone else does or because it will make you feel not-bad or not-guilty. Because it makes you feels FANTASTIC!
-
CBA I think that it’s similar to the feeling I get when I’ve uncluttered…it’s all leaving the way clear to operate at our peak. I think when I’m embracing Saturn rather than resisting, I have more freedom…and sustainable freedom, not that fly by night fleeting moments of freedom…the good stuff, more of it more often…and yes THAT feels fantastic.

So accurate, Mystic! I finally cleaned the skirting boards last weekend. I just looked at how dirty they were and thought – “If I came in here as a stranger and saw the dirty skirting boards, I’d think the person who lived here was a slob.” So I cleaned them. Then I thought “Who the fuq judges one by their skirting boards???”
AND then Saturn walloped me in the face again yesterday. She said “If you’re to revolutionise the creative industry you’re in (or trying to be in), get your life happening, get a career happening, etc etc, you have to attack the writing project you tentatively ‘finished’ and left sitting on the edge of your desk since the beginning of Oct, and get it properly finished.” In my heart of Cap hearts, I knew it wasn’t “right.” Damn you Sat Girl!
So when my agent called to say my arvo audition was re-scheduled for today, I realised that dull, uncomfortable throbbing of a project left unattended was getting too strong. And then freakily, my writing project literally fell off my desk and at my feet.
I sat, started re-reading and within 3 pages, I wasn’t crying/ tearing my heart out/ bleeding from the mucus membranes, I was actually enjoying myself. Editing, scribbling down notes, etc etc. Ideas galore, enthusiasm returning, woo hoo!
So Saturn knew what I knew but refused to face. The skirting boards were cleaned and the only pending issue was my big fat writing project that needed maintenance. So I’m tending to it. I’m not avoiding. I’m not distracting myself as I have done all Oct. I’m going to re-write from page one and I’m going to STRUCTURE it better. Better structure, better chance of sales… or that’s the plan.
Did you hear me Saturn – RE-STRUCTURE!! Yes, that’s now my focus. I’m such a good Cap… just a tad sooky and avoiding and self-sabotaging…

“Saturn Vision is strange. People seem strangely really old or ultra young.”
Yes – a supermarket checkout mag photo editor has divined that vibe for a horrifying then-and-now cover featuring a washed-up and sun-damaged Linsday Lohan. (What else has Li Lo damaged? Could be a long list).
I like to think Saturn in it’s right location (this seems to fit) is more along the lines of this guy’s approach to work/life:
“Our ability to focus effectively on the job and priorities at hand is too often handicapped by the non-stop flood of required, but not necessarily urgent, input, decisions and actions with which we must deal. GTD teaches a simple, fundamental thought process which you can immediately apply to current work at hand, creating critical enhancements and seamless integration with your own unique personal management systems.”
He’s the IKEA / Howard’s Storage World of knowledge work.
It’s a terrific book – I highly recommend it. For some reason I can’t understand, it goes under a slightly different title in Australia – “How to get things done”. Seek it out – you can easily do without the coaching and workshops – unless you can get someone else to pay for you.

Oh my God! Mystic!!!
Please promise me you’ll never channel Pluto in any sign as accurately or frighteningly as you just channelled Saturn in Virgo.
I read that and realised my entire posture had twisted into the “Dad’s lecturing me again and I can’t say anything ‘cos he’s right” pose that I haven’t used since I was 15!!! Scary Stuff!!!!!
Maybe it’s just me being a Cap that eneabled said reaction…

Love this PC “I can’t hear you I can’t hear you I can’t hear you” when it comes to Saturn in Virgo ”
I wrote my lsit of lessons last night but none of them I have actually done anything about in 2 years!!!
They were all there revealed by a not so kindly by Virgo via a major rel breakup x 2 but I prefer the’ banging my head against a wall until it feels better theory” obviously. Duh!
Maybe Saturn in Libra will be kinder to me.-
hmmm let me know how that theory works out for ya! lol
-
-
PC its never worked but some vino dulls the pain. This minute I feel like tearing my appartment walls down with my teeth and I have double brick! Not looking forward to Libra although it will be more fluid than Virgo stl abt the Love thang whcih I am stuggling with at the momento.
Maybe MM you could have a daily scope for singles and one for couples and one for in betweens and one for the desperate souls like me.

I reckon she should just start an astro match making service and make a mint.

-
Laughing my ASS off!!
That is exactly the niterry -pickery I keep hearing…..
Fantastically hilalrious!!
