[7] Some final thoughts
Of course, what we’ve looked at here are only the key phases. Saturn makes other aspects with itself over the 29.5 year cycle and these are significant too. And this is just the cycle of Saturn to itself. Saturn also makes a cycle with respect to the other planets in the birth chart as well as to the angles. The phase of each of these cycles has to be considered in a proper, personalised evaluation of your LifeCycle of responsibility. For example, if you were born with Saturn opposite the Moon and square the Sun (a fairly challenging configuration, of course!), the rebellious phase of the Saturn / Saturn cycle at 14-15 years old also coincides with a time when Saturn conjoins the Moon and squares the Sun again, as shown in the adjoining graphic. This brings a much stronger emotional sense of personal restriction at this time, as well as reiterating the birth square of Saturn to the Sun and its associated inhibitions about being true to yurself. These can clearly affect the extent to which you feel comfortable about rebelling!
Added to this, we have to consider that all of the other LifeCycles are operating in parallel, each at their own pace, and each adding their own flavour and energy to your unfolding life. Among these, the slower moving planets have a particularly powerful influence: Uranus—LifeCycles of change,
Every period of your life thus presents possibilities over a whole spectrum of energies. It is entirely up to you how you choose to use them. Use them consciously, and they support your quest for self improvement and personal growth. If you are unaware of them, you may find that these powerful energies can seem to be taking over your life. Understanding the timing and flavour of the LifeCycles of your life is key to making conscious decisions about who you want to be and who you seek to become.
