Sabian Symbols: Keys to Unlock the Puzzle
Mercury begins his journey with Saturn by his side. The Sabian Symbol is: “During a silent hour, a person receives a new inspiration which can change his/her life.” The meaning of this symbol is to take time out to go into your inner quiet. The gods are directing you to quiet the noise of the outer world. In these quiet moments, the gods will gift you the inspiration that will shift your life.
Saturn is your Master Guide and appears as “A train entering a tunnel”. These two images create a very interesting story. Saturn is the energy that enters into the unknown, a dark tunnel. So it is with your inner mastery that you enter into the unknown element of this Mercury Retrograde. Go into your experience without any preconceived notions. Saturn reminds you to stay vigilant and not get distracted from your journey to remove obstacles in your present life. As you uncover the obstacles, do the work to remove them, you will shift what is possible in your future life.
