Why do I need the exact time I was born?

Often I am asked, "Why do you need the exact time I was born?"

It's like directions to a place...knowing the right day is like knowing the right neighborhood...knowing the hour, gets you to the street, and knowing the right minute and second gets you to the specific address...

This means knowing the date and place of your birth can open the storystrology book; and give broad hints as to what your unfolding story is going to be about but when you want to know about specifics like love, money, health or family the storystrologer needs to go to that particular chapter. To do this the time of your birth is important.

When you take that first breath your cells imprint with the energy of that moment. As C J Jung said, "We are born at a certain hour, at a certain place, and, just like the wine of a certain vintage, we carry the quality of that year and the season within us. That is what astrology claims, nothing more, nothing less"

That 'C' word ...the Reality Police ... and Partnership

Commitment

That ‘C’ word. The realization that commitment brings responsible action.

When we make a choice we are saying YES to something.  

By making this choice we are saying that this is important and we want this ‘something’ in our life. It is worthy of our attention.  We harness our energy and focus.

What have you recently committed to doing?

How are you doing with your  ‘commitment’?

For a train to function effectively, it needs tracks or railway lines.  This is Saturn energy. The trick is to make sure that the tracks, the inner ‘shoulds’, rules and laws, are in sync with what we value. If we neglect to create tracks or rules that build the kind of world we want, we may unconsciously adopt ‘other people’s ‘ rules or society’s rules. This is when we may feel weighed down and limited with responsibility and judgment.

What do your commitments say about what you value?

This archetype in storystrology is Saturn, also known as ‘The Reality Police’. (See the collage of Saturn above for extra description)

Our

‘Inner Reality Police’ can keep us on target; can give us the energy to end that which has run its course and no longer serves us; can remind us what happened when we previously tried a similar thing – this is why Saturn is also associated with time and wisdom.

What is your relationship with Saturn?

How are you reaping the rewards for what you have sown, and nourished through concentrated effort and dedication?
