How to manifest with the final Saturn Uranus trine - part 1 & 2

One of the most important things that we can learn is the power of thought and intention. Nothing exists without it first existing as a thought and nothing can transform from a thought into reality without committed intention. From this starting point, the only thing left to ensure that thought moves to action and then into concrete materialization as reality (as we know and experience it) is the cooperation of the environment (or the Cosmos or the Divine or whatever you want to call it.

Just like plants have preferred seasons and soils where they thrive and move from seed of potential into dynamic, blooming plant with all of itself to offer - as humans, we must follow the natural law of cycles and seasons in the Divine or Celestial order if we want to see our efforts come to fruition easily and bountifully.

The classic and constantly perpetuated misunderstanding of Celestial or Cosmic seasons is when Mercury goes "retrograde". (It does not actually move backward. It slows down while our speed remains constant and therefore, we begin to pass the planet Mercury making it appear to be going backward while we go forward). The unanimous cry of astrology enthusiasts everywhere is "Warning! Danger ahead! Don't sign anything! Don't make new plans! Don't meet new people! Don't, don't, don't and be prepared for everything you own to break down at the least convenient time!"

Given that Mercury is retrograde for approximately 3 weeks, this is literally the most nearly paralyzing astrological phenomenon we can experience if we listen to these folks and take it literally. After all, it probably won't even be safe to leave the house lest you drop your keys outside somewhere, get stranded because you can't get back in your car only to finally return home and find that everything you own has been stolen from you by the person who found your keys while your cat looks at you with a contemptible lack of regret for not doing something, anything to stop the crime.

Luckily, it isn't that dire. When Mercury is retrograde, we might become more aware of things going haywire and our schedule is more likely to become an unraveling tangle of yarn at the drop of the hat because no one else seems to be able to stay on top of their schedules but all of these things have more to do with the demands of Mercury at this time, which is slow down, pay attention and go back over familiar ground and make sure you eliminated any points of confusion or unnecessary weaknesses possible. In terms of Mercury ruled things like contracts and agreements, hiding things like undesirable clauses in contracts and deliberate obfuscation of facts and intentions work better under the retrograde. For folks who are trying to AVOID exactly those problems, waiting for Mercury to move in a natural speed in a forward moving appearance is your best bet. Even if both parties are completely on the table with what their intentions and agreements are, the Mercury retrograde period ensures that the little things like checking the weather patterns before beginning a long trip so you know what to prepare for are more likely to be missed or misunderstood causing unexpected problems when Mercury goes "direct" again. The Devil is in the details and Mercury is a devilish bastard when retrograde....

But we aren't talking about Mercury right now.

We are talking about the final Saturn-Uranus trine that has been the vexation of many of us for a while now. This trine that has allowed folks to go too far, too fast and too zealously in their ... ahem... enthusiasms is finally coming to a close. It has served its evolutionary purpose for us (allowing things to become so inflamed and consuming that it had no choice but to come to a critical mass point where folks finally had to pay attention, take a meaning position in terms of their principles and do something other than pay lip service. I like to say that we have passed that test, even if it doesn't seem like it to some folks. The boil on the skin of humanity has been pricked and now, it is draining so it can dry out and become a thing of the past. Healing is never a clean, neat, pleasant process. Ask anyone who has ever done wound care.





And in this final trine aspect it makes before it changes signs, there is some metaphysical magic or divine seasonal timing that is there for us to use more productively and with focus if we choose it.

Saturn represents the pillars and constraints that make up reality as we know it. When you collapse, condense and fold together all possible quantum realities and snap grid everything into place into one point of focus, you have to put limitations on everything else from appearing simultaneously or you have no boundaries or divisions. And without boundaries or divisions, you have no distinctions and no measurements. And without distinctions or measurements, what you have is a constantly changing, amorphous blob of possibility or miasma depending on your feelings at the time.

In order for us to experience something singularly and distinct from all other possibilities that are occurring simultaneously, we must have a focus and a commitment to this moment and experience of something. Still don't understand? Try tasting something while smelling something very strong or unpleasant. Can you still taste it? Is the taste clear or now complicated or contaminated? Try focusing on your breathing and meditating with 3 other people talking to you and touching you at the same time. Can you find your still point? Are you constantly being snapped out of your zen moment by the distracting or unexpected stimuli?

Now, try going somewhere silent. Find a piece of music or fruit. Listen to the music or eat the fruit. Pay attention with singular focus on what you are doing. Notice how everything seems even more intense and vibrant... and immediate.

This is the nature of reality as our mind perceives it. Where our attention goes, our experience of it increases and becomes more real and substantial. Saturn loves real and substantial. After all, without it we would all be trying to live in sand castles that we keep rebuilding every few hours.

So we have been going through the Saturn-Uranus trine for a while and now Saturn is about to leave and take its genius for materialization with it. Saturn materializes what Neptune envisions, after all. (Together, these two are the greatest conjurers or the most self sabotaging handicaps in the Universe. Whatever they do together, it is all the way to Heaven or all the way to Hell on the most well built and inspired staircase of materialization you could ever imagine.)

But right now, as we speak - we are under the final trine. NOW is the time to take everything we have sorted out and struggled with in terms of what motivates us, sets us on spiritual fire, gives us life and passion to move mountains with, all those answers we have been searching out since this aspect began in 2016... now is the time to put it to paper. To marry our inspiration to our intention and to make a commitment to manifesting it in the long term. Saturn will not give us immediate results for many things because it is a "long haul" planet and if you are committed to something, you are also committed for the long haul so there is such thing as impatience. Sitting down now and physically writing it out and mapping it as if it had already come into existence by jumping forward in the quantum time line and experiencing the future in our minds where time lines only exist to organize information - and being grateful that we have brought these things into existence because gratitude shows that we have confidence and KNOW that the materialization process is taking place.... this is what is required to make the magic work.




The challenge is the mind mapping so when we examine what we want - at all times in our life but especially now - it is important that we examine what is underneath it. It is never the external things that we really want as much as the feelings it gives us. The things that it represents to us that we find with the acquisition of X, Y or Z. We write down what we want in the material form only because it gives us a symbol for the subconscious mind to work with. It is easier to navigate by a sign that is clearly marked "annual salary of 100,000 per year" than it is to navigate by a less clear sign that simply says "make more money". How much more money? One penny is more money. So is a winning lottery ticket worth a few dollars. When we talk about what we want, we should be clear about what we mean and what it will do for us.

Another example is that it is easier to pull in the love of our life when the navigating symbol is "We spend our Sunday mornings together in simple silence doing our own thing. The presence of each other and the occasional chit-chat between us has a depth of passion that goes beyond words" than it is to navigate by a sign that says "tall, attractive, smart, slender, wealthy". You can have all those qualities in a person who is completely abusive to you, small animals or people in general. You can have all those qualities in someone who is so shallow that you are never allowed to gain weight, age or have one bad day when you just aren't a supermodel for other people to envy.

Its not about the stuff or acquiring things or people. it is what these things represent to us and how they will make us feel or improve our lives. If you manifest a Mercedes-Benz 20 years from now because you were specific about owning this car, is that the same thing as manifesting an electric car with hover capacity instead at a time when gasoline may well be $45 dollars per gallon and people use MB's as planters for flowers in their backyard? It isn't about the "thing" as much as it is using the thing to navigate by to find the feeling or value that it represents, even if it comes in a package completely different from the original thing you were using a point marker on your psychic map.

If you find this is all a bit much work to do right now, have no fear. There will be other aspects later to work with although they won't be identical aspects. Seasons and cycles after all. On planet Earth, we have 4 seasons. In the celestial heavens, we have dozens upon dozens of seasons all appearing as planetary combinations and each favoring very specific things that will thrive during them.

If this is too much work for you to do right now, it is entirely possible that this is not important enough for you to make a long term commitment to yet. We should be as honest with ourselves about that as we are about everything else if we want more from life. This little exercise is the easy part. After this, comes the actual work of putting things into motion one step at a time and one day at a time until the building is finally erected and that is going to take real commitment, and effort.

Sand castles are easy. You can build one in 10 minutes and lose all your effort in less than two of them.

Dreams made into reality, on the other hand are time consuming and required sustained effort. Those castles don't go up overnight but once completed, they stand as a monument to what is possible and an inspiration to everyone for years or decades afterwards.

First the thought. Then the intention. And then action in time with the celestial seasons that will ensure an easy planting and a thriving bloom for our efforts later.

The time is now.

Go plan something great.

And start doing something about it.
