The Return of Kronos

So.

We are on the final degrees of Saturn in Sagittarius.
In fact, you may have caught wind of the fact that the fallen Father of the Gods is currently sitting at the Galactic Center. 

The Titan Timekeeper is going out with quite a bang.

This pivotal Saturn in Sagittarius period just happens to also be my Saturn's return. 

So, everything which the Collective is going through Saturn-wise is on my plate, magnified tenfold. 

Know the story of Saturn? Otherwise known as Kronos. Youngest son of the Sky and the Earth, he was a Titan. A giant God-king of ancient, monumental power.

He ruled during the Golden Age of the Gods, after deposing his father Oaranus from his place as guardian of Gaia. There was a prophecy foretold, that his son would depose him as he had his own father. So, logically... he ate his children. One by one his partner Rhae birthed Divine children, and one by one he devoured them. Many Goddesses and many Gods he ate, in his resistance to the inevitable. Until it came to pass that one God-child survived his ravenous grasp, and freed all the consumed children from the prison of his stomach.

This is the course which Saturn plays in our lives. To some, he is considered the destroyer. To me, it is more apt to say he it the bringer of change. That said, his change comes in waves.

First, there is a clean-cut overthrow of the old ways. The path we have been on is cut off. Then there comes a period of resistance. Just as Kronos did, we hold back the inevitable, bringing a level of struggle to meet the transformation which lies before us. All runs its course, all works with the ebb and flow of nature. Saturn knows this… Even so, he resists. Until the transformation medicine of the moment has been soon pent up within, that it comes out in explosive ways.

This is what Saturn's Return is like. First the whole game changes. Then you cling to any semblance of security which you can latch on to. Then you surrender, and the floodgates open. 

Saturn in Sagittarius has been all about standing in your power and owning your truth. 
Sagittarius is a force of nature, in and of itself. He is the wisest of all teachers, the guide of all guides… He needs no one's approval. In fact, He rarely receives any affirmation from outside sources, and he follows his own path on his own authority. To do what you know in your bones to be right whether or not you have to do it alone, this is the oath of Sagittarius, the first Centaur.

This past calendar year has seen Saturn moving slowly through the sign of the Centaur. In turn, the year has seen me being shunned, cast out, rejected, and turned away by countless mentors, gurus, and teachers whom I respect deeply. This has been a pattern which I've witnessed repeated over and over during this, my first Saturn's return. I have seen it and initially, as is completely appropriate, I resisted it.

To be willing to go way, way out on a limb based solely on your own truth is fucking hard. As I moved ever more deeply into this process, I grappled for affirmation from others. For someone to tell me that I was on the right path. I watched as the people whose truth I trusted to give my story authority were whittled down to a smaller and smaller number. Until at last, I realized that I had to be willing to give up any sense of attachment to truth outside of my own.

I had to stand naked in the shift storm, and say “I don't care if I have to do it completely alone, I know in my bones that this is the path, so this is the way I'm going.”
To release all resistance to the transformation washing over me, and trust my own authority above all others.

That, Beloveds is what we all get to do.
We get to stand naked in this storm, and trust our innate knowing to guide us. We get to stand our sacred ground, even if we seem to stand completely alone. 

We get to say with unwavering certainty when questioned why we are on the path which we are on “Why? Because I said so, and I am the lifeblood of the Omniverse. That's fucking why.”

We are all in this together. 
That said, to meet this Great Remembering as the Divine Beings we are, we get to be unflinching in our faith in our own selves, and our willingness to stand alone.
Together we gain the strength to stand truly alone, as One.

Breathe into that beautiful truth for a minute.
See if it resonates.
If it does, perfect… keep it, it's yours.
If it doesn't, perfect also… throw it out, find something better. 

We are the answer to our ancestors’ prayers. 
We are a dimensional revolution.
We are the Rising.
We are love, limitless. 

Let's own that shit, shall we? 

I know I am. 

I see you. 
I feel you. 
I believe in you. 

I love you. 
Always, and in all ways. 
❤
