Neptune Square or Opposite Saturn
© 2004 Curtis Manwaring
Transiting Neptune square or opposite your natal Saturn. This is a time when the structures of your life are collapsing, and what you have come to rely upon becomes unreliable. Authority lacks certainty and the chain of command becomes labyrinthine. Most people's reaction to this is to become fearful and anxious. In fact, because Saturn represents agnoia (the lack of knowing), this transit represents one of the most primal fears of all - the fear of the unknown (Neptune represents avoidance). You are likely to feel disoriented until these changes subside.
