Saturn or lead represents the first rupture of the prima materia, the initial expression of manifesting consciousness. This we can discern by looking at its esoteric symbol, a cross mounted atop a lunar crescent.
...with our hypnotic gaze pointed into the mercurial flow of inward study (Mercury Retro), another layer of sensitivity settles softly on our naked flesh; The Warrior has come home to rest. It's time to share some stories....
Join me for an exploration of this potent Full Moon in Capricorn. We will talk about its influence, its aspects, and also the stars related to this day in the cosmos. I also will talk about , entertaining all the various views people have towards this stellar messenger. What do the Hopi say about it? How about the Maya? Or what about NASA......?.....and me?
....my eyes are an Oceanic reflection of my wildest dreams.....

As I write, the moOn is at 6 degrees Virgo, just minutes away from trining currently reflective and cathartic Pluto in Capricorn (who is also retrograde). My Ascendant is 6 degrees Virgo. And so, I feel this to be a jolly good moment to write about the entangled state we find ourselves in.
What sign are you? Is it what you think? Do you disagree? Is Astrology a tool for esoteric idiots? (maybe). If you are curious about these questions, then don't rely on typical sun-sign Astrology to give you the answers. I couldn't really think of the easiest way to organize and explain what I embarked on, but I figured I would try it out this way.
So what does it mean to have a planet in each sign? The interactions are so complex, and one can not just think in terms of positive or negative relationship. One must instead consider the elements, energies, and qualities that the planets possess; and analyze if the influence they exert is pure or tainted.
In natal charts and individual horoscopes the 5 slow moving planets are considered to be of lesser importance for determining traits because there is not as much variance to observe in those close to the same age.
I thought it was about time for a little astro-narcissism...
Since discovering astrology, I've found that perhaps one of the most sensitive configurations of my natal chart that has implicitly correlated to a particularly strong part of my experience is the relationship created by the placement of the Sun, Mercury, and Saturn.
