Saturn and Jupiter act as yin and yang with their dynamics of contraction and expansion. How well do you handle this ebb and flow?
This is part of the art of living. Contraction is not "bad" and expansion "good." They are companions of polar contrast. It reminds me of what Lao Tzu's second poem implies about preferences for one side of perceived opposites, that when the preference for beauty becomes strong enough it becomes ugly. Instead these opposites should be understood as being part of one another, creating one another, not separate options to be chosen.
How well we handle the inevitable ebb and flow from Jupiter expansion to Saturn contraction is a pretty good predictor of our future happiness.
