Of all the planetary combinations, the Saturn-Neptune complex is especially profound and many-sided. As a transiting influence, whether individual or collective, it can bring decidedly challenging periods— psychologically, spiritually, physically—and yet it can also bring forth great depth of understanding and singularly admirable nobility. So too with its natal aspects, the same themes can shape the life journey.
With the present world transit of the Saturn-Neptune conjunction, we have entered into a time whose general qualities can be immediately recognized as related to previous Saturn-Neptune alignments. Yet each such period is shaped not only by its historical context and what has transpired since earlier alignments in the cycle, but also by the level of awareness and moral engagement we bring to it.
Drawing on history, biographies of major cultural figures, and illustrations from music and the other arts, Richard Tarnas will do a deep dive into the mysteries of the Saturn-Neptune cosmos.
