Discussing the current Saturn/Neptune Quincunx - The mystic meets the sceptic

"Sir Isaac Newton’s Third Law of Motion states: “For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction”. This statement can also be said to represent the Law of Karma. Symbolically speaking, we can say that the manifested universe is ruled by Libra: what you sow, you shall reap. This is as true from our moment to moment reality as it is from lifetime to lifetime. Karma is not limited to the affairs of the Twelfth House as many astrological writers and thinkers would have us believe.

'Many contemporary astrologers today mostly agree with the concept that the outer planets affect them in both their birth chart and by transits to sensitive points in the birth chart. However, it is my opinion that this cannot be so. The reason behind my thinking is quite simple. Who among the many readers of this page can readily fly an airliner? Or control a multinational organization? Successfully lead an army of soldiers into battle? The point is these feats are possible but unless you have had the training and experience the probability of simply doing so is beyond your reach.'

"It all began in 1936; my brother Armand writes an article for the review "Consolation" in which he improvises an explanation of the Front Populaire in France, using the opposition of Saturn and Neptune at this time.

"As prominent as Pluto in Capricorn is as the center of the Cardinal Climax involving Saturn and Uranus, so too is Saturn important as the one planet making an exact opposition to Uranus and square to Pluto in 2009-2010. Saturn is not only strong because it alone makes these exact hard aspects to the other two planets over the next two years, but also because it rules Capricorn, and thus disposes Pluto. Therefore an understanding of the dynamics of Saturn is necessary in order to get an accurate picture of what lies ahead for the world, both politically and economically, in 2009-2010.
