Planets and stars have always fascinated human beings and this fascination is ongoing.
In ancient times, people were more oriented towards spiritual and mystical explanations of the power of the universe, while today, we strive to reach to the most distant corners of the universe by uncountable scientific theories, discoveries and our advanced technological equipment.
However, even our latest technological improvements of all sorts of devices with the main purpose of collecting data from space cannot tell us all about this universe. Some of the stars we see above are actually not even there anymore.
Can you imagine how far they are, in both space and time? Today, we can measure these distances, record sounds from distant planets and even take photos of their surface.
In ancient times, it was believed planets possess some special powers and indeed they do. Our system is an incredible place of vast spaces and mysterious energies. Approaches that are an alternative to official scientific disciplines believe these far away planets definitely affect us as human beings and not as humankind in total, but as individuals.
Astrology is one amazing discipline. Actually, it is a pseudo science, since it is not officially acknowledged as a science. Its name, though, means ‘science’ in Greek and it is structured as one. Astrology is based upon established principles, rules and methodology just as any other.
However, it does not materially explain how and why planets and all other elements of astrological analyses affect us.
An astrological analysis is a precious thing, if you are one of those who appreciate this ancient discipline and see something in it. There are different types of astrological analyses, because there are several branches of this alternative one and here we focus on natal astrology. This is what interests the most of common people and we are eager to talk about it more.
Natal astrology is personalized astrology. It is an analyses based upon your birth or natal chart. Your birth chart is a starting point of creating a personalized horoscope, so we could think of the two as one and the same.
By analyzing your chart, an astrologer actually creates and interprets your horoscope. A birth chart is like a celestial ID; it is a ‘fingerprint’ of your ‘personalized sky’.
It simply means that a birth chart is an image of the sky, frozen at the time of your birth and represented in a form of a diagram.
Now, this diagram is what we focus on. It features important elements that are believed to affect one’s personality and destiny. One of the elements are planets and today we talk about Saturn in horoscope.
Saturn and Horoscope
If we are to trust astrologers, planets play a very important role in constituting one human being as a person and determining his or hers life path. It does not literally mean planets create you as an individual, but they do have major influence over your destiny.
Planets in a birth charts create aspects that shape up your personality and give you various opportunities on disposal.
Many people wrongly believe their birth chart is something concrete and that an astrologer has to give you exact information about your future. Well, this is impossible, since you also have a role to play, not only stars and planets.
Each individual birth chart is unique, just as unique is the life of a person in reality. You can thing about your horoscope as a set of predispositions and potentials.
Let us focus on Saturn. According to astrology, five planets of our system are personal planets and it means they shape up your character and personal traits. They are the first three besides our Earth and the Sun and the Moon, which are astrologically seen as planets.
These affect one’s personal traits. Then there are social planets, which are Jupiter and Saturn.
They are the most distant ones we can see from Earth with a naked eye and the last of the classical planets known in old astrology, as it was established. The last three planets and some other heavenly bodies were added to the list lately.
Saturn is the one to affect your sense of social limitations, responsibility and structures.
Saturn is closely related to the idea of karma and many people feel uneasy about Saturn’s position, because it is traditionally associated with sanctions, punishment and boundaries. This planet orbits longer around the Sun (about twenty nine years journey), so it spends about two and a half year in one zodiac sign.
This means it, at the same time, affects not only you, but also people born in the same year as you are.
Saturn is a very important element of a personalized horoscope, because it strengthens one’s sense of responsibility, organization and duty. It also affects our self-discipline and helps one remain persistent and firm in his or hers goals and in the circumstances given.
However, Saturn is responsible for putting us in front of our greatest fears and limitations.
This planet makes us face ourselves, which is actually what people fear the most, many of us remaining unconscious of that. It makes us face our deepest fears, challenge us and puts us at trial. It is a harsh and merciless way of making one see the reality of life more clearly.
Saturn may sound to you quite cruel, but one of its purposes is to drive your maximum out of you.
Saturn helps people reach their goals, but only through rationalization of the situation.
Saturn makes you work really hard and it can be rather exhausting. Saturn makes you push your strengths to the limit of exhaustion and gives you prize only after investing a lot of effort into something. Saturn definitely brings limitations and faces us with them.
Although some astrologers characterize Saturn as a misfortunate planet that brings only hardship and boundaries, it is not true. Saturn is greatly responsible for our relations with the world around us and our perception of the world as a real place.
It also defines the way one would conquer their own limitations. All of this is important for creating balance.
