I've noticed that many people nowadays belittle the importance of Saturn, either not noticing it, or worse, being afraid of it. Most people are used to focusing on good positive energies, such as Jupiter, which brings for example good luck. But if Jupiter is about empowerment and luck, then Saturn is about order, discipline, honest work, for me Saturn is a universal principle that says that what you sow is what you reap. Most of the people I've seen expect the fruits of their success through purely spiritual work, while rejecting material work, which is a gross mistake. Perhaps most people already know this truth, but it did not occur to them to associate it with Saturn because of their fears or sterotypes. And so, here I will share my understanding of Saturn, which has brought me great benefits in my life. I warn you that I am sharing a subjective experience.
The destruction of everything superfluous & Stability
I've been drawn to Saturn for a very long time, and even despite the warnings, I had no doubts about perfroming his Square (Material one). The changes appeared on the second day, my environment changed significantly, and random people began to come into my life who helped me understand valuable truths in a not very pleasant way. I partly got rid of misconceptions, of unnecessary people, of the garbage in my life that just distracted me. Saturn's energy helped me get rid of social media and an abundance of information, no, I did not give up all this myself - as if a person were giving up smoking. I mean, I just lost the desire and craving for all this, I began to treat all these things that pulled me down indifferently. Saturn is also a master of stability, getting rid of all unnecessary things also means that new things will take the place of old harmful things in our lives. Saturn is very useful in establishing new habits on an ongoing basis, and I suspect that it can be used to get rid of many addictions, including love addictions for those who suffer from unrequited love. In my past, my spiritual practices were not constant, I did them according to my mood, based on passion. Saturn taught me that spiritual development is a matter of habit, consistency, and that Rome wasn't built in a day. Under cold gaze of Saturn I realized that spiritual practices are not matter of passion, but a trip to the gym for a lifetime.
Azazel
It is curious that despite the fact that I was making a material square, during that perioud Lord Azazel shows up, I began to understand the nature of the Gods associated with Saturn better, relevant literature and knowledge began to come into my life, it would seem that they were supposed to complement my knowledge, but it turned out that they served one simple purpose, to help me get rid of illusions. I am partly writing this post as a thank you for his help and for his guidance. He is not the God who gives simple answers, he shows the way, he shows the books that I have to study on my own, he pushes me to develop through thinking on my own, he shows me my weak sides. In my opinion, those people who want to understand the nature of Azazel better or who want to work with him will be able to do it in the best way if they start working with Saturn at the first place, because i had no interest in Azazel before! he just shows up sudennly as a fleeting desire to make his ritual of power. I delayed this moment for several days, and only after the ritual of Lord Ningishzida, i did the ritual of Azazel and he appeared to me as a voice, as the intellect of Saturn himself who gave his instructions at the same time as i felt Ningishzida as a power of kundalini inside.
Black Magic
If someone wants to use black magic, then the power of Saturn will be the best ally for these purposes. Black magic serves justice in all its forms, it restores order, destroys injustice, the energy of Saturn itself prepares the ground for Maat. Saturn can be imagined as a gardener who takes care of his garden. It destroys the noxious weed (Isfet). And he also helps to cut dried leaves from noble trees, he takes care of them in such a way that they would eventually give their harvest. All Gods love humanity, but Saturn's love can be painful, it goes through lessons. And if we imagine that the purpose of black magic is to restore order, then we will say that the "victims" of black magic are undergoing painful correction through Saturn karmic lessons. Thus, the use of black magic does not contradict the laws of Maat if it helps to correct the villains properly, correcting those who treat us unfairly. (I am not a judge, and I do not know what real justice is, because only the Gods can know whole situation for sure)
The inevitability
I noticed that there are two types of people, those who go towards Saturn and then Saturn benefits them. And those who avoid Saturn and thus suffer from it. I do not know if there is a golden middle in this matter, one way or another, Saturn does not leave anyone indifferent. In my opinion, it is better to be an ally of this great power than to be afraid of it. We know that Saturn rule over the root chakra, and that it is through it that the Kundalini serpent goes up the spine, so even in matters of spirituality, only a fool would ignore this great power that brings wisdom and understanding of many things. Anyone who recognizes Saturn/Kronos, as a great teacher, learns wisdom not in theory but in practice, and I say this as someone who has learned many painful but valuable lessons. Even now, I don't know many things, I only know that I don't know anything, but one thing I do know for sure - Saturn is hubris' worst enemy, pride in all its counterproductive manifestations. Whenever I thought I was successful at something, Saturn shows up and painfully pointed out to me the reality that I still have a lot to grow and the ceiling has not been reached.
I could talk for a long time about the greatness of Saturn, but I'll leave it to you, you can share your experience in working with Saturn. Also remember that the fact that Saturn Square turned out to be a success for me is not a call to action, the clergy have pointed out many times how dangerous Saturn Square can be. Saturn demands respect for himself, and as I have noticed, he does not tolerate hubris, but approaching Saturn from a position of fear is also a mistake, because fear in this regard can be harmful. Another important thing I need to mention about Saturn is that you should take a comprehensive approach, taking into account the position in the natal chart, astrology, every other factor you can possibly consider. Show how serious you are about your work, and then the fruits of that labor will be truly sweet—as sweet as the sleep of a farmer who has worked all day and then returned home pleasantly tired, enjoying the fruits of his labor.
So, if you have any thought about that topic, you free to share, i will read the comments with pleasure and curiosity
