Saturn and Vesta’s exact conjunction September 27th @2 degrees Capricorn
Couldn’t be more timely with former comedian and actor Bill Cosby’s conviction for sexual assault Sept. 25. Saturn is Karma. Vesta symbolizes woman’s sacred sexual energy. This is a prime time to heal. #MeToo yes I have been raped.
Vesta’s {Hestia in Greek} function as High Priestess is to focus on and tend to your sacred inner spirit-flame, your sexual passion and to keep it safe, strong and burning bright. Remember also that we are in a Universal #2 Year the Symbol of the High Priestess in the Tarot.
The Vestal Virgins meant that these women were whole and complete and belonged to no man. They were sworn to celibacy and to focus their sexual energy and use it directly for spiritual connection. The Priestesses were able to recirculate their sacred menstrual blood and were able to conceive parthenogenically as Mary did with Jesus.
I believe and remember that as a Vestal Virgin these women served as Priestesses of the Goddess before the Patriarchal meaning of Virgin as abstaining from sex. These Priestesses were disciplined { Saturn’s rulership} dedicated and devoted to their own purification of sexual energy enabled them, after years of focused work as Yogini’s to be so pure that they could perform magical healing feats by directing that sexual energy.
Saturn rules discipline
It’s a good time to create goals of all kinds and to make a business plan and to create a disciplined daily regimen for yourself. Invest your energy in creating concrete goals on all physical levels- get your body in shape, your business tools, or website, and take care of financial planning. Saturn rules maturity and ageing, think about where you want to be and the quality of life you want to have as you age. Remember your ancestors. Saturn governs reality. It’s time for a reality check to take stock of where you are at in your life in reality right now and to take responsibility for your karma.
This is a karmic reminder to reassess your career path. What is your passion and essence? Take stock of what you invest your time into with your physical body on all levels-what you eat, exercise, body care, distractions, lovers. What do you spend your time focussing on? Ask your spirit what it desires on the mental, emotional and spiritual levels.
Sexual healing form abuse
Vesta is the Goddess who guards the Sacred Flame, the spiritual focus and sacred kundalini Tantric sexual force of nature/ spirit. There is major karmic collective healing from sexual abuse which needs to be burned off now. Thousands of years of Patriarchal permission to rape and abuse women needs to be healed. Start a daily or weekly practice to tend your own sacred flame. This can be creating an altar, a meditation time, or a practice where spirit, sexuality and your physical body join in unison.
Vesta rules Tantric healing sexuality energy. You can access this energy through sacred breathwork for yourself or with a partner. I’m putting together an article you can access on how to do this.
Saturn and Vesta remain in conjunction within 9 degrees until October 24th.
This gives us a whole month to really focus on a discipline of listening to our bones. Listening to our ancestors, listening to our body. The body never lies. Let your body soul and spirit guide you into making whatever major long term- Saturn is only in his home sign of Capricorn once every 28-29 years.
Then make the physical moves and changes to align with your spiritual essence, your kundalini flame first so that you can burn brightly once again.
Check out where your natal VESTA is in your birth chart to understand what fuels your sacred flame.
I will put together a webinar next week. Stay tuned.
