Chapter 8. Saturn in Your Chart

Astrologically speaking, the planet Saturn is the force of discipline. Saturn defines your duties, responsibilities and the structure of your life. Saturn also represents the heavy hand of authority, fear, inhibitions, constrictions, restrictions, reservations, anxiety and limits imposed. It is a symbol for the force of gravity. Words like "must" and "can't" relate to Saturn.

Hard work and perseverance are also saturnian concepts and that's not all bad. "The mills of the gods grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly fine." Saturn represents mastery, seasoned professionalism, efficiency, consolidation and dependability. This Khronos, Odin, "star of limiting the place" also represents daddy, and Jehovah complexes. Below is described your "saturnian" self Al Gore.

DRAMATIC DECISIONS

You can be held back until you find and master appropriate outlets where you can get personal recognition and respect. You have to pay some dues and work at self expression. It is your task to stay focused and maintain some creative control and yet remain flexible. You will get better results if you work to enjoy life, and cultivate a sense of humor, than if you succumb to the urge to be dictatorial and dogmatic.

Be realistic, if you feel unloved and have excess problems with your children, then you need to be less autocratic, power driven and egotistic. You can know it all or you can be loved. Speculative investment and gambling are probably not for you unless there are contrary messages in other sections of this reading, then you can work very hard to become a seasoned professional.

TIP: No one will love you more than you love yourself. No one will respect you more than you respect yourself. Get in front of the mirror every day and repeat "I love myself." Do it with the spirit of a child.

Work to keep your back strong and in shape. Protect your heart. Find out about the "miracle" coenzyme Q10 and the antioxidant nutrient, pycnogenol.

You can even learn to access secret or occult powers. You can become a great force for far reaching and long lasting change.

TIP: To increase stability accept uncertainty.

Chapter 8A. Chiron in Your Chart

Discovered in 1977, Chiron is a relative newcomer to astrology. Named after the half-brother of the Greek god Zeus, Chiron is a comet from outside our solar system, according to the latest scientific findings. In Greek mythology, Chiron was tutored by the Sun and the Moon (Apollo and Artemis) and, in turn, taught the offspring of other gods.

Chiron taught special skills such as astrology, philosophy, ethics, music, medicine, horseback riding, and weaponry. These skills where thought necessary for gods, and humans, to achieve their destinies. The position of Chiron in your birth chart denotes what and where you may teach or be taught. It is also where you can be healed and how you can heal others.

A Centaur, who is part human, and part horse, Chiron is a half-breed. His higher self sometimes struggles with his own animal nature. What follows is a description of the "chironic" side of your character.

INTENSE MENTORING

To become more sexy, you need to become more of a maverick. Rearrange your concept of intimacy. Do it ruthlessly. Open new doorways to the intrigue and close encounters of the intimate kind. Do it totally, and absolutely. Imagine for a moment that you're Mr. Spock of Star Trek fame, Yoda the Jedi Knight or Helen Keller mentoring the blind, then give some sagacious thought to the awesome power of righteous orgasms.
