substack #12
I don’t have any big updates, or things to show you right now, so instead I’m here say congrats to everyone who just completed their first Saturn Return*! Myself included.
This is a good time to reflect. Go grab your chart and look up what house your Saturn is in (it’s a number 1 - 12). Mine is in the 4th house of home and family. So my recent Saturn Return asked: what kind of home are you building? who are you bringing into your family? Here’s where I’ve landed:
🌱 I believe family is built on the basis of love, affection, consideration, solidarity, co-participation, protection, responsibility and mutual respect.
🌱 The family I’m building may or may not include people I'm blood related to, instead the commonality here is choice. My bio dad and I choose to work on our relationship, my maternal grandfather and I chose to bridge gaps between us, and my sister is someone who chooses me everyday even though we were born on entirely different continents to different sets of parents.
🌱 You probably won’t hear me use the word “chosen family” anymore, because to me all family is chosen family.
In my piece, Star Gayzing, I talk with eight voices from my community and my wonderful friend Sonia shares about how this idea of family has been the gay agenda for a long time.
Sooooooo, now that we’ve transitioned from Saturn in Aquarius to Saturn in Pisces, Saturn in Pisces asks us to get serious about our dreams. Here’s a little on playlist for you to start dreaming to - and for those of us in LA it’s also very moody and perfect for this weekend’s rainy vibe.
