Transits
information, more than could be simply understood with
our mind. It may take weeks, months or years to
decipher and realize what it means to us. It is analogous
to what we read about in some of the sacred texts,
where they speak of receiving a secret scroll into the
mind: although we read it devoutly more than once, we
only understand it over time. We take in a vision, and
then bring it to mind again and again, until we have
absorbed its content—until we understand it.
Saturn's transit of the 11th house is a time when we are
fueled and fired by something coming from within our
own mind and self—an idea, thought or plan—a strong
stimulus or message of some kind; and, in this house,
that original stimulus or insight turns into a plan, some
attempt on our part of implement whatever idea is
moving us—to make it real. "For spirit must be made to
matter" is a line I wrote years ago that describes what I
am getting at here. We are inspired or driven to design a
plan to make our inner vision real—to make it matter in
our day-to-day life.
And to do that, we look everywhere around us for
help—for anyone willing to move these plans forward. In
this sense, we are very community-minded, and not that
particular about who can help, rather, we embrace all
and any means to make these dreams real. Here we are
perhaps at our most visionary or altruistic, way beyond
any selfish or personal motives; we are sincerely
making an effort to help make something happen.
