“Here it’s like part of the challenge that we’re experiencing in society is the fact that these ancestors are all trying to grab our attention and they have not yet found a good way to be really harmoniously aligned with one another. So part of what our responsibility as natives of the United States is, when we’re doing ancestor worship, to acknowledge the ancestors of everybody in the country and how we salute them, but we have to encourage all of them to do what they need to do. And part of what they need to do is to learn how to cooperate together for the benefit of everybody who is in the country.” – Dr. Robert Svoboda

If you would like to learn more about working with Saturn, please read Dr. Svoboda’s therapeutic myth, The Greatness of Saturn
“Saturn is furthest away and Saturn is slowest moving, so the influence of Saturn is felt for longer than any of the other planets. That means, whether it is for good or not so good, Saturn is going to relentlessly provide you the results of certain karmas of yours. It’s that quality of inexorable relentlessness that really makes Saturn the planet you need to pay the most attention to.” – Dr. Robert Svoboda
