Hope you’re ready, bc one of the most important astrological events of 2021 is about to begin. It’s a little (big) something called “Saturn square Uranus,” meaning these two planets are forming a 90-degree angle (a big deal in astrology).
This transit occurs three (!!!) times in 2021: February 17, June 14, and December 24. Think of February 17 as the first chapter in the “story” of these squares—the effects will continue all. year. long. Keep your eyes and ears open!
To get an idea of what to expect, we have to go back in time about 20 years. From 1999 to 2001, Saturn (in Taurus) and Uranus (in Aquarius) squared off. This time around, Saturn is in Aquarius and Uranus is in Taurus.
On a global level, past Saturn and Uranus squares have been associated with falls of governments such as the U.S.S.R. and economic changes like the Great Depression. Back in 1999-2001, the internet started changing the way we connect with the world, as well as how we do business and make money.
Fast forward to 2021. As the first square occurs, we’ll begin to see more of a reliance on the internet to help us make money and investment, but the way we connect will have to be regulated.
On an individual level, this will be a time of great change and personal growth, which we may not be ready for. You might find yourself feeling rebellious, pushing against the status quo (just don’t be surprise if it pushes back). This tension is needed as we break free from everything that’s been holding us back. You got this!
