Saturn & Centaur

The zodiacal symbol of Sagittarius is a half-human/ half-horse with a bow and arrow. The symbol is graphic representing an integrated bony spine and nervous system; the joining of horse and human.

This integrated horse-human is symbolic of a great healing between the mind, body and emotions. The healing balances human intellect with animal intuition; the psychic self and Divine connection.

 

Sagittarius is the indicator of:

The centaur, four legs rooted deep into the earth knows desire and seeks fulfillment. With bow and arrow ready, he senses the target, strains the bow releasing the arrow.

 

Once the arrow is released, so are apparent strategies and control. Only the journey remains as the centaur moves over the rich ground of earthy desires. The arrow and the target are forgotten as magic, the senses and serendipity take over.

 

While the Sagittarian tendency to wonder is magical and can be at times positive, it is not a recipe for the completion of hard tasks or for getting at the truth. For justice to be fully served under hard aspects, the truth-keeper Saturn is required.

 

Saturn, the great planet of truth, hard-work and karma enters into sidereal Sagittarius on October 26, 2017. Saturn refocuses the Sagittarius tendency to go off point; grounding tangibles while in this visionary sign.
