Sorry, a little Greek humour there, since Saturday is Cronus, The Time God's, Day and all. Saturn aka Cronus created his own misfortune by being so anal-retentive and controlling after hearing his son, Zeus, would be born and grow up to overthrow him. Now granted overthrowing someone is entirely impossible and unnecessary unless they are in fact truly ruling something. Cronus wanted to be and stay in charge FOREVER, but Zeus aka Jupiter the planet of luck, good fortune and opportunity, was not eaten along with his other siblings, (yeah that's how Saturn aka Cronus was preventing their births by literally swallowing his children….ewww) due to Rhea, his wife and Zeus' mother, being sick of his shit, Rhea gave him a stone covered in swaddling instead of Zeus (yeah Saturn isn't exactly the brightest planet in the heavens, sure is pretty, but not that smart) and thus Zeus' fate as an appetizer was avoided and he did indeed come to rule the Heavens and overthrow his father Saturn aka Cronus as the prophecy foretold.

So what can we learn from this? If it happens it happens, often times all the plotting and planning in the world cannot prevent what must come to pass, the most we can do is be prepared when all our efforts are for naught, oh and stop trying to control everything and for gods sakes DON'T EAT YOUR CHILDREN! (I'm looking at you Leos and Leo Risings and Capricorn Suns and Capricorn Risings, you watch your steps too).
Card of the Day:
The High Priestess
(From the Modern Goddess Tarot Deck)
Now here's a card that Saturn should have listened to, if he'd followed his intuition (I know it sounds counter-intuitive that a man would have working intuition but hey, it happens) he would have realized that Zeus was meant to lead. The High Priestess is the source of all energy, she stands at the gate between the spiritual world and the physical world and thus represents the most streamlined part of ourselves that simply knows without question, without doubt, without reason. She just knows. Today with the Moon in Sagittarius (the sign that Zeus aka Jupiter rules) we are reminded that the key and the door to embracing our own success and happiness is in us all along we just need to use the key and find the door to unlock it. The High Priestess reminds us that what we feel is what lasts, what we said is forgotten, what we did is in the past but what stays with us immortally is our FEELINGS. So listen to your feelings, your intuition and honour what your spirit already knows but may have forgotten. Sit with yourself, meditate, listen to Chakra Frequencies, listen to the sounds of the waves and birds take a walk in nature where you can and reconnect with yourself and those watching over you. You may be surprised the delights you will find.
