Quincunx Saturn — Neptune
(Transit. Saturn → Natal Neptune)
Avesalom Podvodny. Aspects
Quincunx of Saturn: A person who lacks inner freedom does not have the moral right to demand civil rights. This aspect creates dissatisfaction with ordinary earthly means of deepening in the spheres of the planet, no matter how deeply one penetrates them, and the same applies to the processing of its principle in the inner world. Here, a person needs to hear the cosmic sound and see the otherworldly depth, to which they have abilities. At a low level, a person does not realize all this, and in them, the quincunx of Saturn manifests in minor annoyances and restrictions in the spheres of the planet associated with their focus on ordinary earthly methods of working through relevant issues and an inability to view them from a cosmic perspective. Although subconsciously, the burden will be quite heavy.
In general, this aspect creates dissatisfaction with earthly wisdom in the spheres of the planet and a desire to comprehend the cosmic. Sometimes a person may feel that they have glimpsed it, but initially, their visions are distorted by typical distortions, since cosmic laws can only be comprehended through conscious and subconscious detachment from geocentric positions and the predominant social views that hold a person firmly, especially in serious matters. Therefore, there may be poorly understood leaps from cosmic attitudes, which are attractive to the subconscious but suspicious, to earthly and established ones, which are reliable but unsatisfactory. As a result, the problem is suppressed, leaving a general vague feeling of dissatisfaction, or, especially in the case of a debilitated quincunx, stress arises. Working through this is difficult but leads to cosmic wisdom, the vision of karma, and the ability to harmoniously weave cosmic karma into earthly life.
Quincunx of Neptune: It is not necessary to be good; it is enough to be honest and attentive. This aspect brings the influence of cosmic love into the spheres of the planet, which a person at a low level often perceives negatively. Modern civilization is such that even earthly forces pushing a person toward evolutionary development are often perceived as evil, and conscious spiritual development is usually undertaken by those who have hit a dead end in all other areas. Therefore, the high vibrations of the Cosmos in the spheres of the planet mean for a person either incomprehensible changes in consciousness (transcendent meditations) or life turns that are difficult to understand without a “half-liter” of insight. The latter, however, lowers the level of cosmic meditation to an earthly, understandable, and even almost ecstatic one.
In the case of a debilitated Neptune in the spheres of the planet, irrational feelings of cosmic guilt may arise, usually suppressed, as well as internal conflict due to the discrepancy between ideas about cosmic and earthly grace, mercy, and compassion. The Cosmos is more interested in the evolution of the spirit, while people are primarily limited to the physical, etheric, and astral bodies, and happily ignore the laws of karma altogether. To overcome the contradiction between earthly and cosmic Neptunian influences, a person must learn to see karma, adopt a cosmic point of view, and only then try to align earthly karma with higher influences. To do this, they must first rid themselves of constant minor lies and self-deception in the spheres of the planet, which they mask as harmless. Cosmic love does not so much alleviate suffering as it shortens it, directing it along more constructive paths for the person.
