I know, I know, you’ll probably scream n’ cry that your little world won’t let you go.
\n— Jimi Hendrix<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Saturn the mentor dons Scorpio robes at 4:34 pm EDT tomorrow, encouraging your continued education. Instructively, the Ring Master will ingress the school of fixed waters scarcely ten hours after Mercury’s archetype of mind leads the way. The rare and unusual concurrence of the fastest and slowest visible planets will be as if to say that when your inner student is ready the teacher of experience will follow.<\/p>\n

The image of Saturn as a stern teacher is outdated. Rather, it is for you to master the energy that Robert Hand has described as “each of us teaching ourselves about what we really are.” The first lesson is how you should embrace every experience: each one ultimately becomes part of who and what you are. To resist or reject experience, especially that which is new or challenging, is to program or structure an uncomfortable existence. That is working against Saturn and, ultimately, yourself.\u00a0<\/p>\n

To welcome what comes to you is to affirm and accept what you will become. That is working with Saturn. Fortunately, the process, like Saturn’s motion, is gradual and deliberate. It is a process punctuated by periodic graduation to a new level of experience. The graduations often correspond to when Saturn transitions from one sign to another every two and and a half years. Mercury’s impending and unusual reconnaissance of Scorpio will represent your opportunity to begin Saturn’s next transition both mindfully and reflectively. That’s because Mercury will enter Scorpio twice over the next two months.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mercury will first enter Scorpio in direct motion at 6:35 am EDT tomorrow. Following its ingress to the realm ruled by Mars and Pluto, the innermost planet will function as if to preview the ground Saturn will cultivate until 2015. As if in sympathy with Saturn’s slow motion, Mercury will gradually decelerate on its way to an eventual retrograde station in Sagittarius.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mercury’s deceleration will mean that your mind will have an unusually long time, 24 days, to survey Saturn’s new curriculum and release any attachment to the long Libra chapter now closing. Yet, that period of three weeks and three days will not afford any time for you to tarry. There will be the important business of being done with what is done, so that you can make mental room for a momentous re-entry.<\/p>\n

As if in reflection, Mercury will re-enter Scorpio’s back door in retrograde motion on Nov. 14, and remain in the house until 2012’s Capricorn Solstice is nigh. It will be an auspicious return, cloaked by an occultation of the Moon. That will be a time to think about what you have been thinking about. It will be a second, and final, chance to turn away from the results of Saturn’s Libra tenure and move on to bravely becoming what you will not want to turn away from two years hence. <\/p>\n

With Mercury’s retrograde return, you will get a second, and final, chance to enhance the quality of your matriculation through Saturn’s Scorpio run by validating, integrating and becoming the experience you already have under your belt.<\/p>\n

You are experienced. Your experience prepares you to graduate from where you are and move on to further lessons. Of that, there is no doubt. While you may be justified in doubting a great many things, please do not devalue your life by doubting what has gotten you this far. If it was ever important to advance your learning before, then it is important now.<\/p>\n

Yes, the lessons you were first sent here to learn are, and will always be, with you. That initial level of education, however, is now small in comparison to the experience you have brought on to and built into yourself. It’s your life now. Every two and a half years, Saturn opens the door into a new classroom. For this time only, Mercury will hand you notes on the way in. All you have to do is take your experience through the door and continue to accept your own teachings.<\/p>\n
