The Weight

Today, Saturn's weight precisely opposed my Sun at 16° Leo. I thought, "What if I have completely failed at every ambition I have ever had?" This work is an expression of the stern presence of Saturn, compressing and turning myself inward into interrogation of my ideals, work ethic, and planning. Saturn says, "How can I take you seriously when you don't take your own desire seriously?" He is not flippant nor jovial and his arrival is an opportunity to take stock and gird myself to the earth and ground.
