It’s just a couple more days until Saturn finally bids Sagittarius adieu and heads into Capricorn; a sign it hasn’t occupied since the late 1980’s. The Ringed One enters the sign of the Goat on December 19th at 11:49pm ET, and from the moment it does so we may begin to sense a palpable tick-toc, tick-toc effect keeping perfectly measured time somewhere in our lives. This particular astrological placement is incredibly time-conscious and no other cosmic influence can make us more aware of the apparent lack thereof; whether we’re talking hours in the day or years of our life. Everybody’s “biological clock” starts ticking louder than normal under this energy regardless of the specific milestone being used for measurement (marriage, babies, career achievement, a particular age, retirement, etc).
Rather than allow this to inspire anxiety, dread, or fear, it becomes a matter of how we might best manage the increased sense the grains of the hourglass are slipping through our fingers. For this reason conserving our time and effort becomes crucial during the next two and a half years while Saturn resides here; we are very aware that it is a finite resource so it becomes more important to guard it and stop squandering it on situations or people unlikely to yield the results we hope for. Sorting our priorities in a hierarchical fashion is the way to go so we allocate the most effort and hours into that which matters most to us, because we are quite likely to experience significant time crunches throughout this astro-passage. Frugality is chic when Saturn resides in Capricorn and prudent conservation of time and effort now pays off later. We especially do not waste time on childish things now, like drama, or on things that aren’t going to get us where we want to go in life such as dead-end jobs or relationships, and on people who never seem to learn from their mistakes or who won’t grow up. Saturn in Capricorn is all about learning who and what we have time for and – more importantly – don’t. Maturity, sobriety, having a 5-year plan and/or generally having one’s shit together becomes the name of the game during this transit.
