Great Force Meets A Wall. Destruction or Discipline? Mars Conjoins Saturn & the Queen of Cups-Reversed
Daily Horoscope Check-In for Wednesday, April 10, 2024
Good afternoon, friends!
Well, I don’t know about you, but this Mars/Saturn energy is kicking my ass! I feel like I am trying to swim upstream, move through molasses, run through a pool, whatever the analogy, I feel like am trying to take action and progress forward through a wall of resistance! From getting up to writing today, to getting my kids started on their studies, it just feels harder than normal. How about you? Are you feeling just a general resistance on all fronts?
According to astrologer Reinhold Ebertin in his book, The Combination of Stellar Influences, the principle of Mars and Saturn together is, “Harmful or destructive energy; inhibited or destroyed vitality,” and “The tendency to get hurt or injured, mostly destructive pernicious forms of energy” (1972). Well, that sounds so fun…*sarcastic eye roll!
What about the good things, Ebertin? There’s got to be good things, too, right? On a positive note, the conjunction of Mars and Saturn, according to Ebertin1, could possibly indicate, “Energetic people who are able to overcome the greatest difficulties,” and “Endurance and the power of resistance.” My kids sure have the last one down! They really don’t “feel” like studying right now and I wonder if it wouldn’t be better to just do the Pisces thing and focus on art all day? I mean, Mars and Saturn are in Pisces after all!
Let’s go over the transits of the day and see where this conjunction falls in relationship to everything else to try to understand the whole picture and then we’ll ask the Tarot for guidance.
