Saturn Retrograde: The Promise and Blessing of JOY!
*
May 23 at 5:19 a.m. EDT, Saturn turns retrograde in Aquarius, the visionary, the sign of rational thinking and humanitarianism! It's a time to slow down, think and reflect on our goals, priorities and commitments. How are we doing in relation to the promises we made to others and to ourselves? Saturn retrograde asks us to take responsibility for our own lives. Saturn is known for discipline, hard work, groundedness, and being a strict teacher, trying to bring out the best in us, reminding us that things happen for us, not to us. Love is always trying to lead us, to guide us, to show us the way.
*
It's time to look at where we are, where we've been and how our actions led us here, taking responsibility for where we are right now. We have the power to bring out the best in ourselves, in others and in our world. Working together with our Higher Power, angels and guides, Saturn will give us the courage and discipline to do this and to make any changes that we feel are necessary. Today let's ask, "How can we best serve the highest good of all?"
*
And so I asked Spirit, "What does Saturn Retrograde in Aquarius want us to know for our highest good?" and was gifted with...
37 - Joy
*
This marks a time for celebration, for this portends the joyous completion of a project, the attainment of a goal, or the end of a long and arduous journey. When you're thirsty, this marker promises that you'll find a well; when you're cold, a blanket; when you're hungry, nourishment.
*
Joy also has another aspect, for not only does it celebrate receiving blessings from the fruits of actual labor, but it's also about the sharing of it. Joy celebrates itself - it's very essence radiates beauty and well-being.
*
Like the spring sun breaking through after a long and gloomy winter, joy reminds us to be grateful for all the gifts of life. Joy bestows the blessings of happiness. You truly have reason to smile when this marker appears on your path.

What a beautiful blessing and promise! And for some, it may come as a surprise, especially when Saturn has the reputation of being a Task-Master. Saturn, the planet of life lessons, is working closely with our angels and spirit guides, and will bring events and experiences into our lives that will force us to take a closer look. Loss, disappointment or hardship may become our teachers, showing us what we need to let go of or change. Transformation is never easy just ask any caterpillar. It's time to trust in the loving beneficence of our Higher Power. Our time as a caterpillar has expired. Our wings are ready to fly. And that is the Joy, the promise, and the blessing of Saturn. May we be open to the treasure in the challenges!
