The Devil in the Tarot, Saturn, and the Next Two Weeks: Liberate Yourself - An End to Difficult Times

What does the Devil tarot card have to do with the next two weeks?  Everything.

XV, The Devil, Shadowscapes Tarot

The Devil is card number XV of the major arcana in the tarot - the card of lessons on the journey - the first of two cards represented by Saturn. (The other one is the final card of the major arcana representing the completion of the fool's journey - card XXI, the World.)

​The representation of this card (to the left) in the Shadowscapes tarot deck illustrates it perfectly. 

The Devil represents habits and patterns that keep us stuck and trapped in life. See how the person is actually free to move away at any time? But they don't - their own beliefs are what is actually keeping them trapped, not the Devil. The Devil simply takes advantage of this.

To free ourselves, we must change our beliefs, our thoughts, our emotions, our behaviors. We must believe differently, speak differently, and feel differently, and act differently to BE differently and experience life differently.  It starts within.

​It starts with us drawing a line, creating a boundary (boundaries, foundations, and structures are things that Saturn helps us create).

It starts with us saying "no" to some things in order to say "yes" to others. (Saturn is about our ability to say "no" too.)

It starts with us stepping into our inner authority, taking responsibility, and being disciplined about choosing what we are for and saying no to what we are not - in the long game, not in terms of immediate gratification.

Saturn when challenging can feel like restriction and limits because it is teaching us its lessons in a way that creates conflict and resistance to get us to grow into a new relationship with this energy.

In the end, Saturn will show us the way to "freedom through discipline."

Saturn is the Roman god of the harvest - it also shows us how to get a happy harvest in this 3D material world.

Saturn rules Capricorn, the sign of "achievement oriented earth." It's all about the business of getting things done in the "real" world, the material world. It's about rules of time and limits, death, limits of the biological body. Saturn rules our bones, skin, and teeth - the structure and boundary of the body. It also rules structures and boundaries in the world and in our lives.

Saturn shows us that these structures and boundaries and the rules of life can be supportive and protective to us or can feel like a prison - the choice lies in whether we are in our inner authority or not.

When we are in our inner authority, we use these to our advantage and harness their power in our lives - when we are not, it feels like something outside of us always coming down on us and like we are being controlled, like the person in the tarot card shown above.

For the next two weeks, Saturn's square to Uranus is applying, until it is exact for the third and final time this year on December 24th, Christmas Eve.  

Saturn here is in challenging aspect, and to Uranus, the planet of revelation, liberation, big change, and breakthroughs.  This is THE overarching energetic influence of 2021, with the first of these planetary standoffs occurring on February 17th, and the second on June 14th.  

These two at odds can have us feeling restriction we are really over, and as this is the finale of this series of growth aspects for this year, it is likely to be at a tipping point.

Here's the thing....

The truth of the situation right now is that we are at the end of difficult times.  (Read more about this here.)

~ This is the last outer planet square to Saturn for a while, and these have been hammering us for several years now. 

​~ For years, we have collectively been enduring nonstop karmic forced growth.  (Saturn is karma and the past, limits and boundaries, and square aspects represent energetic impasses which force us to grow to find a new way forward, to build something new.)

~ This aspect, building from December 16th and climaxing on December 24th, is the very last one.  

This means that we need to trust life and keep the faith now more than ever.  

Vibe high, and focus on what you are for, because after Christmas, we will be in entirely new energetic territory.  The laws of the energetic universe say like attracts like.  If we don't wish to recreate the past, or even our present, we have to look ahead, vibe higher, and focus on what we are for.  We have to set our vibration to match what we want in the coming weeks, months, and years, and hold it there no matter what, rather than letting whatever swirls around us dictate our energy and pull us down out of our upward spiral.  

We have to take Saturn's cue now and step into our inner authority and say "no" to what we are done with - and that means energetically not repeating the same thoughts, doubts, worries, and reactions - and keep our focus only on being in alignment with that of which we want more.  

Saturn can serve as both our jailer and liberator - it is our choice which side of this energy we stand upon.  

Now is the time to employ the concept of "freedom through discipline" to serve us and allow it to liberate us from any limiting ideas, beliefs, thoughts, habits, and/or patterns that would keep us stuck in the old and unable to step fully into the new when it begins to open to us in just a few weeks.

This is the Art of Consciously Creating Life!

Astrology | Wisdom | Empowerment

Hi, I'm Kasey.  Welcome to the Art of Consciously Creating Life!  

Yes, astrology plays a big part in my approach, but it isn't everything.

The "everything" is energy.  In this life, energy is all there is - everything is made up of energy, of frequency, of vibration, and YOU are the alchemist of your life, a powerful creatrix.  

Astrology is simply a language of energy, allowing us to read the energetic currents at play in our world to better harness and flow with them.

What's at the heart of it, of all of this, is YOU, standing at the center of your life, sovereign ruler of your realm, seated solidly upon the throne of your heart.

Hi, I'm Kasey. Click on the image above to read "My Story."

Not feeling it?  I'm here to help. 

If you are feeling tossed around and at the mercy of the waves of life rather than masterfully riding them (and having fun doing it), isn't it time to do something about it?

Work with me.
​
You have the right to a life you absolutely love, and I'm here to help you get there.

At the end of the day, energy is all there is.  Astrology is energy, your emotions are energy, your thoughts are energy, and you get exactly what you give.  The problems is, we can get pretty tangled up in this life and end up stuck in a cycle of creating what we don't want.

Ready to turn things around? I'm ready to show you how and support you every step of the way.

We'll do it together - six weeks, six one-on-one sessions, and 45 days of guidance and support focused on what you most want to shift in your life.  "Shift It" is a short, intense and compact package of coaching sessions, but long enough to create shift that will blossom into lasting change. 

Did you know it only takes 21 days of consistency to create a new habit?  That means a new habit of belief, a new thinking habit, a new energetic habit - that means with the right focus and actions, over only 21 days, you can make a small change that has a big impact in your life.  And in "Shift It", we will have over twice that length of time working together!  (I'm not just all astrology - I have a background in hypnotherapy, including how to identify and shift limiting beliefs, neuro-linguistic programming (NLP).  I understand the subconscious mind and also bring in guided meditation, energy work, and even some shamanism, not to mention my personal experience working with trauma and C-PTSD - understanding what's going on with and how to work with our biological system can be an important part of creating a lasting shift in our lives too.)

If you want things to be different, you have to do things differently, and there is no time like the present. 

The life you want is waiting for you to step up and claim it.

Imagine more satisfaction, more clarity, more confidence, the feeling of standing in your inner authority and sovereignty....  How much would this be worth to you?  How much is it costing you right now to not make a change? 

This is all possible for you and maybe in less time and with more ease than you think.  If you are ready to do things differently and get different results, work with me.  As Emerson said, make a decision, and the Universe conspires.  Simply the decision, the commitment, is a huge part of getting the momentum going in a different direction.
