Transits
The Slow Curve
This appears true in regard to all the planets: that until
any planet has completed its first circle or cycle during
our life, we have no way to really "get it"—to understand
the nature of that planet—for we have not yet seen or
experienced (consciously or unconsciously), in this
particular life, all that it represents; however, when it
does make its circle, turning to repeat itself, and starts
going over the same part of the zodiac again, we begin
to get it. At that point, Saturn's entire orbit would
become, for instance, now a part of our personal life
experience—things are much more likely to crop up that
we have seen or experienced before. This is when we
begin to sense that we have been over this ground
before. In a very real way, once a planet completes its
cycle and begins to repeat itself, it becomes a part of
our internal life experience; in fact, in a very real sense it
IS our inner life. This is true of Saturn most of all, for
Saturn governs the form and circumstances each of us
face in our lives.
