EARTH’S PLAN FOR US

Even if you think astrology is hog-wash, you might want to let me run this by you.

If you survived the first 28 years of life, you’ve already had your first Saturn return. It re-visited its place in your natal chart (a 28-29 year cycle) about that time and that’s called a “Saturn Return.”  Those of you who made it to 58 have had a second Saturn Return. Me? I’m looking at a Third in 2014 when I turn 88. I welcome it.

Saturn is our heavenly parent, a Father/Mother figure, dishing out perfect justice. We get rewards for our past efforts and ready-or-not directions for what needs to be changed in the future. The first Saturn Return (at about 28) tells us that it’s time to grow up now–complete with the tools we’ll need for doing that, like a change of attitude or a new perspective. The second Return (at about 58) re-plays the tape and causes unmistakable changes in our plans for the future. It helps a lot to believe that this parent is strict, yes, but always fair.

I’d  like to propose a guess that Planet Earth is having something similar to a Saturn Return, on a far larger scale, of course. Everything, everywhere, is cyclic. From our prospective, current changes are called Global Warming. We like to take credit for causing it, which may be pretty arrogant since it implies that WE can fix it. On a larger scale, that’s pretty funny. This old Earth has survived more cycles of both cooling and warming than we could count.

Yet these radical weather changes, are serving as an amazing wake-up call for people everywhere. It looks like we do need to make some changes, to quit taking our Earth for granted as eternal and forever and to expect changes. We are finally realizing that we have nothing to lose by making an effort to respect and protect our homeland. We’re all discovering, with every piece of recyclable, that it feels really good to think “Earth first” … as if we had a choice.
