Dear all,
I would like to understand more about this aspect when Moon and Saturn make square at first quarter phase.
If details are OK, Moon is in Aquarius and Saturn is in Scorpio.
Every info. about this question is welcome !
Thank you !
Hi Melita,
The entire chart must be addressed, starting with the Pluto paradigm. One aspect such as a Moon/Saturn phase in Aquarius and Scorpio in this regard does not fit all.
However, Deva Green and I are doing a series on Moon/Saturn Phases called Your Inner and Outer World. Our next show is on the Crescent phase Moon/Saturn using chart examples on Saturday, March 28 and we will be talking about 1st quarter phase and using chart examples on Saturday, April 25, on EA Zoom. You will also be able to access these webinars on YouTube following. I realize it is a long wait but here is some info in the meantime.
1st Qtr Square
Dane Rudhyar called this phase a crisis in action.・This is quite true because this key evolutionary gate correlates to the need to establish and make real the new evolutionary patterns reflected in the original impulse in the New phase. The fear of failure and of sliding back into old patterns is now very intense. These fears create a crisis in which the Soul will attempt to try on many hats, so to speak, in an effort to discover just what hat most perfectly reflects the new patterns. These different hats reflect different directions and different ways of being that are highly individualistic. Which hat is it becomes the essence of the crisis.
Within the First Quarter phase, there are four aspects that correlate to specific phases of development, as follows:
90ï½° First Quarter Square: The individual meaning of the new evolutionary purpose now must be given a new form to operate through in order to be fully actualized or established within the individual. The specific nature of the form is relative to the specific nature of the planets that are aspected in this way. For example, if Mercury is square Pluto the new form would involve a new system of intellectual organization and the resulting opinions. The new form would evolve by analysis of the intrinsic weaknesses or deficiencies in prevailing intellectual systems or bodies of knowledge. This analysis would produce the new intellectual insights.
If the planet was Venus, then new forms of relationship or new ways of being in relationship would have to occur. Creative tension is produced through the process of moving forward with this new form versus the compulsive temptation to slide back into old patterns of behavior. This creative tension also manifests itself because the Soul may not yet know how to actualize or establish the new form. The resulting tension or confrontation is usually seen as the individual against him or herself, against society, or against all that constitutes the past. From an evolutionary standpoint, this new form or mode must be actualized or established before the individual can move on.
THE MOON AND SATURN
These correlate to your ability to integrate your ego, your personal identity, who you are within the context of the social systems and/or culture, Saturn, in which you find yourself. The ability to establish your own authority within the authority of the culture. Earlier, it is the social conditioning of family. Heritage, consensus values, lifestyles, beliefs, social class and sociological context - all these shape one's identity. This archetype perpetuates the status quo, the mainstream.
Peace,
Kristin
Dear Kristin,
I look forward to hearing from you and Deva more about it !
Many thanks,
Melita
