<\/dt>\nFigurative and perhaps even literal water will define the means by which the Sun and Saturn correspond on Thursday, because both Scorpio and Pisces are water signs.<\/p>\n
Some systems of ancient natural science considered water, along with fire, earth and air, to be elements that combined to constitute everything else. Tropical astrology still uses the same four elements to both distinguish and correlate the 12 signs of the zodiac.<\/p>\n
Among the most meaningful correlations is between signs that share the same element as part of their identity. Because four divides into 12 evenly three times, there are three signs corresponding to water (Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces). The same is true for fire (Aries, Leo and Sagittarius), earth (Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn) and air (Gemini, Libra and Aquarius).<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
On a zodiac circle any three signs that have the same element in common are distributed evenly, 120 degrees apart, forming the points of an equilateral triangle. That’s how we get the word “trine” to describe any aspect represented by two or more objects in the same degree of different signs that share the same element.<\/p>\n
A separation of 120 degrees on a circle is quite a distance. Yet, with the possible exception of a conjunction (which is two or more objects sharing the same degree of the same sign), trine aspects are considered the ultimate connection. Such is the powerful role elements play in astrology.<\/p>\n
Trines symbolically conduct the energies of widely separated objects or points through the medium of a common element. It works much like how electricity is effectively conducted through metal wires from where it is generated to where you are now.<\/p>\n
What the Sun conducts through any trine aspect is its correspondence with illumination and connection with consciousness, an interpretation as natural and intuitive as being awake during the day.<\/p>\n
Flowing from the watery and mutable realm of Pisces, the conveyance of solar consciousness takes on a cumulative and passionate nature invested with a predisposition towards change, which is one way of describing the power of intent.<\/p>\n
Intention alone, even as powerful as it is, seldom results in definitive or lasting change by itself. Practically speaking, both sharp definition and durability require some sort of structure, which is where Saturn comes in.<\/p>\n
Saturn, unlike the Sun, moves slowly through both the zodiac and the sky. Hence, while the Sun is known for the light it sheds over the course of a day, Saturn is most often remembered for the structure, form and order it leaves over years — a predilection reinforced by its current regression through the fixed waters of Scorpio.<\/p>\n
Connecting deeply felt but all-too-often ephemeral intent with fervently deliberative pedantic preferences is thus one thing Thursday’s trine from the Sun to Saturn implies. The Sun, just as it does in your everyday life, has the potential to motivate. Saturn, in turn, has the potential to extend motivation into discernible results. But like all of astrology’s events, potentials can only be realized through you.<\/p>\n
In order to make the most of Thursday’s potential then, contemplate your most heartfelt intentions now, and select what you would most like to manifest into reality. Then over the next few days channel your passions toward an objective. If you do it well enough, the objective itself will become a passion that will last more than a day and result in more than a feeling. It’s worth a try, and at the very least, your endeavor will give you a taste of what it means for your intent to be connected with the structure of the cosmos.<\/p>\n
