Discipline gives way to freedom. Becoming emotionally invested in what we want allows for true devotion to fuel us. Allow your care to chart your course.

This week, Saturn stations retrograde (on June 29th) in Pisces, asking us to review and renew the commitments we made to ourselves in March 2023. Notice how far you’ve come, and what your emotional investment has allowed you to cultivate in your life.

It’s okay to fall off the horse. The experience that comes with it shows us what we really care about, and why we decided to get on the horse in the first place. Take this as good, important data, and reassess where you’re at NOW.

We’re always changing, and devotion does its work on us in the process. It’s a necessary part of the process to renew our commitments, in NEW ways. To figure out our “WHY”, now, knowing that it’s likely changed since we first set off on this new phase of growth. Reflect on where you were at in March 2023, and allow it to be a point of reference for the renewal process now.

Saturn will be retrograde until November, so there’s no rush. We get to spend this next season rearranging the contents of our life to be in deeper alignment with the new course we’re charting. Come November, we’ll be well on our way to carving new pathways through which to channel our devotion.

The New Moon in Cancer on Friday July 5th offers a moment of emotional cleansing, to clear away some of the residue that’s built up from life being lived. Take it as an opportunity to reset, to check in with the truth of your inner experience and access CARE. For self, first and foremost.
