On November 4th, Saturn will leave its retrograde cycle and shift into direct motion. This happens every year, however, this year Saturn’s shift in direction heralds an incredibly potent energy spike and an extremely rare aspect pattern. There are many layers to this energetic event and it certainly signifies something big and important is shifting.
First things first, Saturn – ruler of time, tradition, hierarchy, order, structure, law, governance, karma, and linear reality itself – is making its direct motion the day before Daylight Savings ends (for many parts of the world). Just consider the synchronicity of that for a moment. Saturn is shifting direction just as we are literally setting our clocks back. This is what’s happening on a literal level and the symbolic, spiritual and energetic levels are even more profound.
Saturn will be at 0 degrees, 31 seconds of Pisces as it moves direct. The number zero is a highly significant number, especially since we’re talking about Saturn and especially with it being in the sign of Pisces. Zero is the number of endings and beginnings, loops, circles, nothingness and wholeness and it serves as an amplifier in numerology. As well, zero is associated with The Fool in the tarot – he who stands on the precipice, outside of time itself, gazing downward at the 3D realm where his journey begins. The Fool is our soul as it moves through the many learning archetypes of experiential reality. He must leave the higher spiritual realms and descend upon the earth (linear reality) in order to gain wisdom and evolve. Saturn is the much obliging, strict teacher who creates the paradigms, limitations, and parameters of that reality in order to test The Fool’s integrity, discipline and perseverance.
Pisces, among other things, represents multidimensionality. It is the last sign of the zodiac, ruled by Neptune, and naturally governs the 12th house. It represents the culmination of all experiences accrued through the preceding 11 houses which coalesce into an amalgamation that is consciousness itself. It is the morphogenetic resonance, the unified field, the entire whole of reality. Pisces is where the carefully cultivated ego is dissolved so that the wave can, once again, rejoin the ocean. The individual undergoing the Pisces experience will either experience fear at the loss of ego and structured reality, resisting the pull to return to Source; or they will experience faith as they surrender to the process of dissolution and trust in the flow of consciousness. Pisces is symbolized by two fish swimming in opposite directions, yet tied together – each symbolizing the dualistic desire inherent in each of us to both be of/in the world and to return to Source. Yet, both fish are held in the water (consciousness), whether they realize it or not.
Am I waxing a bit poetic here? Forgive me, but it can be difficult to describe exactly what is occurring at the time of Saturn turning direct as the energies are paradoxical. Saturn, ruler of time, steps forward into his active energy while standing in the zero point of multidimensional awareness. The way this energy is utilized belongs to each individual’s free will choice – yet will also be determined by their existing level of awareness.
Let me see if I can break this down more simply: at the time Saturn turns direct, we will see the manifestation of two paths created from the recent eclipse cycle. Saturn does, after all, symbolize crystallization into form. Two stories will be presented at this time. One story involves being stuck in the circle, the cycle of loops in time, repeating old karma, giving up one’s personal authority, discipline, and responsibility for self-governance and turning them over to external authorities. Déjà vu, anyone? Those who choose this path will be returning to where they have already been before and they will experience the negative expressions of Saturn – depression, melancholy, fear, pessimism, negative karma, stagnation, limitation, pressure, rules, rigidity, hampered growth, and over-concern with public image.
The other story is quite different. For those who choose to stand in their sovereignty and recognize that they create their reality, the loop becomes a spiral; they will move through this multidimensional portal into a higher timeline. They will recognize (consciously or not) that this zero point portal represents infinite potential and possibility and they will utilize their own vibration, visualization, and manifestation power to shift their timeline into one of service, unconditional love, higher heart power, integrity, discipline, stamina, commitment to higher ideals, and personal responsibility and authority. These people will recognize that although in this lower density reality it often takes effort and consistency to manifest one’s desires, they hold the absolute power and creativity to do just that. They will utilize this portal to initiate enormous, positive changes and shift into the future.
It is important at this time to recognize our current emotional vibration. There has been some really intense emotional release occurring with the recent lunar eclipse (which is still present, still unfolding) and if we are not careful to integrate these emotions and surrender to the process of transformation, we run the risk of shifting into a lower vibrational resonance – which will impact the “direction we go” at the time of this energy spike during Saturn’s change. At the same time, if our intention is to flow with these changes, we can trust that our own guidance system will lead us where we need to go, rather than slipping into the paranoia that sometimes accompanies negative Saturn expression.
Part of the reason the energy at this time is so significant and powerful is due to a certain aspect pattern which will occur the day Saturn goes direct. For those not in the know, aspect patterns are when a series of specific angles are formed between different planets at the same time, thus creating a pattern or shape. In an astrology chart, we can see this pattern by drawing lines between the planets. On November 4th, we will have an extremely rare grand sextile – or Star of David – aspect pattern. This looks like a large hexagon and occurs when six different planets all form 60 degree angles (also known as sextiles) to one another. Within the hexagon shape, there are two sets of three planets also forming grand trines to each other (which looks like a giant triangle), with each triangle being inverted atop other. In other words, this shows up as a large Star of David or Merkaba star shape in the chart.
Again, this is a very unique aspect pattern that doesn’t occur just everyday. There are so many dynamics/components that have to come together to make it happen, so that in itself is significant. When you add in the fact that Saturn turns direct this same day (Saturn is not part of the aspect pattern either), that it’s occurring one week after a lunar eclipse, and that it’s happening just before Daylight Savings ends, this is very big energy we’re talking about here. Hence, a timeline shift.
If you’ve looked into the quantum structure (aka timelines) at all, you know that each of us, individually, shifts timelines constantly. You’re doing it right now, moment-to-moment-to-moment-to-moment, instantaneously. So it’s not rare for a single person to be moving timelines. What makes this date significant is it indicates a global timeline shift. It takes much more accumulated energy for an entire population to shift timelines. I do believe this is the bifurcation that has been so often discussed in spiritual circles. This is something we’ve been seeing since 2020, so the “split” is not new, per say; however, I think what makes this event different is it is creating a more marked separation between the two groups. It’s like for the past three years a cell has been attempting to divide. We’ve been feeling that pressure and witnessing the start of separation, but now, as this portal opens, we’re going to see the actual manifestation of two distinct cells.
However, to make things more complicated, we’re also talking about quantum reality here, so when there is the creation of two separate realities, we’re actually talking about three. As Marina Jacobi often explains in her quantum manifestation series, “1 + 1 = 3” in the quantum world. So as two distinct and separate realities are created and coexist in the same spacetime, there is actually a third reality created as well. I do believe this is what’s known as the “trifurcation.” This is the time we’re moving into now.
For those who are interested, the Star of David aspect pattern (which is also a synchronistic pattern when you consider current world events) will involve the following planets: Uranus at 21 degrees of Taurus will sextile the Moon at 26 degrees of Cancer, which will sextile Venus at 25 degrees of Virgo, which will sextile Mercury/Ceres at 20 degrees of Scorpio, which will sextile Pluto at 28 degrees of Capricorn, which will sextile Neptune at 25 degrees of Pisces, which finally sextiles Uranus in Taurus, thus completing the hexagon. As well, Uranus, Venus and Pluto will form a grand earth trine while Mercury/Ceres, the Moon and Neptune will form a grand water trine. Again, we have these elemental themes of water and earth going on – emotions/the soul and the natural world/manifestation. This same day, Saturn will be conjunct Mary Magdalena in Aquarius and will square Uranus in Taurus; and Jupiter in Taurus will oppose the Sun and Mars (also conjunct each other) in Scorpio. Now repeat all that back to me! Just kidding.
This is really big energy, folks. The grand sextile affords us the opportunity to both build something new as well as adapt to incoming changes (including changes in values). A grand sextile in itself doesn’t necessarily implore us to make these changes though – since all the sextiles are linked to form a complete circle, it “closes the energy loop” making it flow much easier. This may sound nice on the surface, but we actually need those more challenging or dynamic aspects in order to motivate or pressure us to initiate action on the inspiration and ideas which come through the sextiles.
However, on November 4th, due to the two grand trines (Star of David/Merkaba pattern) and their positions, it inherently creates three sets of oppositions within the aspect pattern. On top of that, we have the Jupiter/Sun/Mars opposition previously mentioned as well as Saturn squaring Uranus. These more dynamic aspects occurring simultaneous to the harmonious ones are what assist us in actually implementing the changes that we’re being called toward now.
With that being said, be aware that during this time, there can be feelings of betrayal or some kind of profound disappointment. This is particularly true in regards to any kind of individual, system or hierarchy that we’ve given authority to, relied upon or in which we’ve placed our trust. We may feel intense feelings of loss, grief or abandonment around this time. However, it’s important to realize that these circumstances and resulting emotions are surfacing in order to initiate us into the higher expressions of Saturn in Pisces. We are meant to be our own authority figures. We are meant to cultivate our own spiritual discipline, to tap into our own inner reserves of spiritual stamina, faith, and knowing. There is no place for gurus in this world anymore, so if you’ve handed your spiritual growth over to anyone outside of you these past three years, now may be the time when they suddenly “show their true colors” or disappoint you in some way. This can lead to disillusionment (Pisces), but again, this is a necessary experience to have as it will force you back upon yourself. Only you hold the reigns to direct your spiritual path. Only you can discern what is truth and what resonates within you. You do not need acknowledgment, guidance, validation or approval from anyone besides yourself.
There are many, many voices expressing themselves through the truth and spiritual movements. This is a wonderful thing and many of us can utilize these voices and perceptions to help tap into our own inner guidance system to find direction through synchronicity and inner resonance. However, there’s a big difference between hearing what someone else discusses as a resonance of your internal compass and relying on someone else to tell you what’s true and where you’re headed. This is one of the big lessons of Saturn transiting through Pisces now, and as it moves direct at zero degrees, these lessons become highlighted. There is no shame in the epiphany that comes from recognizing you’ve allowed yourself to be misled. Use it as a catalyst to launch you into your own power, knowing and self-directed path.
Lastly, I want to mention that on this day and through this timeline shift, there is a very strong current of energy related to justice, legal matters, and the law. In particular there is an emphasis on natural law (or Universal Law) as well as protecting the innocent. As we collectively shift into a higher timeline, we naturally align with Universal Law and harmony. Saturn is very much related to law, justice and order, and in its highest expression, it upholds these systems with the highest integrity and dedication.
There are those who have deliberately used Saturn’s inversion to control our reality and oppress those they consider their inferiors. However, Saturn is the Lord of Karma, and coupled with the energies of the bifurcation – particularly the masses of individuals who now carry the vibration of sovereignty, truth, justice vindication and integrity – those who have abused the natural order will come to face the karmic recoil of their actions. What goes around does, indeed, come back around again. What worked for them in the past no longer does as the balance of new energies forbids this from happening. This is the dissolution of the old world. The old system of “justice” is crumbling as the new system is reborn in its place. These energies are very strong at the time of Saturn turning direct, so we may see some big changes in these areas of our lives – both personally and on the world’s stage.
I send you all so many blessings at this time and wish for you to step into your higher path, shifting into the higher timeline and your new earth mission and destiny. May you stand in your sovereignty holding the knowing that you have the power to manifest whatever you desire that aligns with your heart. May you be rooted securely in yourself and your own guidance, standing strong with discipline, sincerity, truth and confidence so you may build upon your soul’s mission and higher purpose. Much love to you all!
