Saturn Square Uranus

2021 will be marked by three successive squares between transiting Saturn and Uranus: status quo faces off against the inevitability of change. Normally, this might be viewed as a good thing but what if the status quo is the way of life we once knew and the change is the imposition of technocratic Orwellian state. 

One square between the two planets has already occurred around February 17th in 7° Aquarius/Taurus. See Figure 1.

Figure 1

The next will occur around June 15th in 13° Aquarius/Taurus. See Figure 2. Transiting Ceres will also be conjunct Uranus in 14°. Given the connection of Ceres to grains and crops, this could presage sudden and unexpected crises in the food supply.

The Sabian Symbol for Aquarius 13° is a train entering a tunnel (remember in the Sabian system 0° is Sabian 1° and so 13° is Sabian 14°). Here is fuller explanation:

PHASE 314 (AQUARIUS 14°): A TRAIN ENTERING A TUNNEL.

KEYNOTE: The ability to short-cut the process of natural evolution by the exercise of will, mental skill and physical self-discipline.

In this symbol we see a condensation of what is implied in the three preceding ones. Man must be inspired by a vision of what is possible for him to achieve; he has to organise a schedule of necessary activities if the work is to be done in terms of successive moves, each requiring a specialised type of skill and strength (i.e. a hierarchy of functions); he has to find a propitious time for beginning the work. 

The end result is an acceleration of the evolutionary process, whether at the psychobiological level (that of yoga and other similar disciplines) or at the social level, i.e. the level at which, in its external aspect, civilisation proceeds.

This fourth stage symbol presents a picture of what can be achieved by a combination of social and cultural, and even personal, techniques. It implies the possibility of shortening the length of time needed for progress by cutting through obstacles and delays. The Keyword is PENETRATION. Source.

This Sabian symbol is eerily suggestive of transhumanism that does indeed seek "an acceleration of the evolutionary process". The Sabian symbol for Taurus 13° is as follows:

PHASE 44 (TAURUS 14°): ON THE BEACH, CHILDREN PLAY WHILE SHELLFISH GROPE AT THE EDGE OF THE WATER.

KEYNOTE: Returning to simpler joys for revitalisation.

This somewhat ambiguous picture suggests the way in which simultaneous activities of different natures can fill the individualising mind. The consciousness of socialised man operates at two levels, in close parallelism with what goes on in the unconscious parts of the mind (i.e. the sea). Natural urges are half conscious, half unconscious. They exist in a borderland – the wet sands still partly covered by small waves. The children play a little further away,  learning  imaginative  yet  socio-cultural games. The hardworking porter loaded with baggage should remain a little child at times and allow himself to be close to subconscious but natural urges. At least he should do so for a while until he feels surer of himself.

This symbol suggests that it is better not to attempt at once more than one can achieve through conscious and ego-driven ambition. It refers to the value, at this stage, of close contact with natural energies and simple pleasures, of a LIVE AND LET LIVE attitude. Source.

The third square will occur around December 24th in 11° Aquarius/Taurus. All squares are between the fixed signs of Aquarius and Taurus. Saturn in Aquarius is suggestive of social controls of various sorts while Taurus, with its associations with the body, is suggestive of social controls that involve the body in some way via biometrics, vaccinations etc. None of it augurs well for humanity. See Figure 3.

The Sabian symbol for Aquarius 11° is equally ominous:

PHASE 312 (AQUARIUS 12°): ON A VAST STAIRCASE STAND PEOPLE OF DIFFERENT TYPES, GRADUATED UPWARD.

KEYNOTE: The necessity of recognising differences of types and levels of development wherever human beings live and work together.

This symbol obviously refers to the ascending process of evolution of life forms and consciousness. It seems to apply especially to the fact that differences of levels exist among human beings. The ideal of equalitarianism has to be balanced by a realisation that hierarchy of levels is a fact of nature. 

Each person should be aware of the level at which he (or she) stands, even as he strives to move toward a higher one. He should look up for inspiration and examples, while helping the human beings of the next lower level to reach up. This is the great give-and-take of evolution, and it applies to sociocultural evolution as well as to the progression of biological species.

At this second stage of the sixty-third sequence we find a symbol of “ascent,” contrasting with the preceding one which implied a “descent” of spiritual forces. It warns us against sentimentally over-stressing our Western equalitarianism which essentially applies to the spiritual core of all individual persons, considered “sons of God” or spiritual monads. Every human being is potentially divine as an individual person, but THE NATURAL PROGRESSION OF STATES OF CONSCIOUSNESS is an unavoidable reality to accept at the social-mental level. Source.

The global elite would certainly embrace this symbol because its members would see themselves at the top of this staircase. It is the technocratic dream to impose this sort of ordering on humanity, so 2022 may herald an acceleration of this process. The Sabian symbol for Taurus 11° (Sabian 12°) is:

PHASE 42 (TAURUS 12°): A YOUNG COUPLE WINDOW-SHOPPING.

KEYNOTE: The fascination of the youthful ego with the products of its culture.

The woman waters flowers in her garden: this is the inward-turned attention of the mind revelling in its own flowering. But now we have a scene symbolising the outward longing of the ego, which has polarised itself and become “man-woman.” The “man” aspect is that part of the ego which craves direct participation with society and the world of other egos. Fully to participate requires a special kind of substantiation – and we are still in this third scene, the Keyword of which is “Substantiation.” Clothes, goods of various types, adornment, and working tools are needed. The consciousness surveys possibilities; they are defined by organic nature (personal abilities) and by the ambition to succeed in society.

This second stage is defined in contrast to the first. The ego becomes aware of what society has to offer. Its attention is turned outward. An interplay takes place between the individual and his culture. He is being moulded by what he sees and by prospects for growth in social prestige. It is a phase of SOCIALISATION OF DESIRES. Source.
