As we mentioned back in 2007, the Saturn in Virgo years promised interesting times indeed, especially for the nation of Iran. That’s because Iran’s Islamic Republic was born in 1979 — when Saturn was last in Virgo. Well, kiddies, can you figure out what that means? Iran is having its very first Saturn Return, and going through some major growing pains. Expect major upheaval in the months ahead, especially this coming fall. Will the Islamic Republic hold? In 1979 the opposition didn’t have the Internet to bring their point of view to the rest of the world. Now they do.
With Saturn and Uranus in opposition, Barack Obama ushered in the “Yes We Can” revolution. Perhaps the Iranian youth can use this energy for similar purposes. It will be exact again in September, so watch this space for developments. If you were born in 1978 or 1979, you totally understand what they’re feeling — an overwhelming need for change in a world grown stagnant and oppressive. You don’t just want change, you NEED it, and you need it now. If you don’t address the stirrings of your soul right now, you’ll likely repress them for another 29.5 years. Listen to your inner calling and live life the way you were meant to.
