Saturn and Guilt
When I do charts, I help people understand themselves. In turn, I understand myself. I have some insights into Saturn and guilt.
First of all, a Retrograde Saturn will be a much guiltier person than a non Retro Saturn. Retro Saturn makes one feel as if one is not good enough. Saturn is the stern librarian with her nose looking down, glasses perched at the end, telling you that you just stuck gum under your chair. You feel just…… well…… awful…… bad….. unworthy. We all have been there but Saturn Retro lives there.
The Retro planets are an interesting phenomenon. I have several. I have mercury Retro in Gemini. This has helped me understand Retro planets in general because one is very intimate with one’s thinking process. A Retro planet makes for a deeper person in the domain of the Retro planet. If it is Mercury, one will be a deeper thinker. If it is Venus, one will go TOO deeply into the meaning of love such that one gets frozen. Venus retro is the worst Retro. If it is Neptune, one will go deep into the domain of spirituality.If it is Chiron, one will go deep into the realm of pain. With Saturn, one will go deep into one’s own unworthiness. I have Retro Mercury,Saturn, Chiron and Neptune. I, personally, cannot speak to the other Retro planets but I can assume what they would be like. I have done charts of Venus Retro and they suffer a great deal in life. I have not paid much attention to the other Retro planets as I think they are quite rare. Write to me if you have one. Tell me how you experience it.
Back to Saturn and guilt. The Retro Saturn is a much more guilt ridden person. However, this person will not be as shallow as someone to whom self esteem came easily. I will say that is one good thing about Saturn Retro. Another good thing is that one can mature and outgrow the bad feelings of low self esteem. Saturn gets better with age. That is a blessing of Saturn.
Saturn conjunct the Asc is one of the hardest places for Saturn. We wear our self doubt for all to see. Any negative planet( or asteroid) conjunct the ASC is like having a giant pimple on your face. You wish it were on your rear end or pinching your hair.Your face just does not seem fair.
Saturn conjunct the Moon takes away essential confidence from one’s very soul.One may feel as if one does not deserve to exist. Saturn conjunct the Sun may make one afraid of male authority figures.One’s father may have been too strict.Saturn conjunct Venus makes one feel one has to be perfect to be worthy of love. Saturn conjunct Mars makes one doubt one’s actions. Saturn conjunct Pluto makes one afraid to be a wild,primal tiger and settle for a pussycat( with a great deal of passive aggressive anger resulting) This is known to be a cruelty aspect. One can’t push one’s primal passions down with no consequences, so it does make sense.
Saturn conjunct any planet or asteroid makes one obsessive to express that asteroid. It, also, seems to make the person very guilty in the domain of the asteroid or planet. Saturn conj Eros would make one obsessive about sexuality. Saturn conjunct Echo would make one obsessive about having one’s voice. Saturn conjunct Pluto would make one obsessive about one’s primal passions such as lust and rage. Saturn conjunct Mars will make one obsessive about meeting one’s drives. On it goes with Saturn. This has been my experience in doing charts and my personal experience.
