Saturn transits to Uranus tend to have a nervous, spasmodic character. Saturn transits to natal Saturn most typically involve the bones, joints and connective tissue, and conditions such as osteoporosis watch your calcium and mineral metabolism closely. Saturn transits to Jupiter often involve the liver, and bring about shifts or challenges to the nutritive balance of the metabolism, favoring Melancholic deficiancy over Sanguine excess. Saturn transits to Mars involve both Melancholic stiffness, rigidity and obstruction, as well as Choleric irritation and inflammation anemic conditions may also develop, as well as pathological aggravations of black and yellow bile. Saturn transits to Venus also challenge the nutritive, anabolic processes of the organism, and may also affect the female organs, fertility, the menstrual cycle, or sexual response. Saturn transits to Mercury tend to afflict the nervous system with tics, neuralgias, and nervous exhaustion the respiratory function may also be constricted or weakened. If the Moon is targeted, the anabolic, vegetative and nutritive processes of the organism will be challenged, and nutritional deficiencies may develop. If the Sun is targeted, the overall vitality, immunity, netabolic heat and pepsis of the organism will be challenged. Since Saturn rules maturation and the aging process, Major Saturn transits also tend to be major turning points in the aging process. Since Saturn classically rules the two signs opposite the domiciles of the Sun and Moon, which are Capricorn and Aquarius, the vital energies of the luminaries will be greatly challenged if they are targeted by Saturn transits. This often involves the bones, joints and connective tissue, as well as the teeth. Saturn transits have a Melancholic nature and temperament, and tend to manifest Melancholic pathology. In Medical Astrology, these would typically involve things like the lunar quarters and the stations and retrograde periods of Mercury. Otherwise, the transits of the inner planets act mainly as acute trigger mechanisms to actively manifest as pathology the underlying stresses and challenges of the outer planet transits.
The transits of the faster moving inner planets are important to watch only if they are especially emphasized, dignified or sensitively placed within the natal horoscope. The transits that bring about the major events and changes in the life and health of the individual are those of the outer planets - Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. Nevertheless, they can have a healing and regenerative potential, but this potential tends to remain dormant unless actively awakened and exploited by a regime of health improvement. The soft, flowing aspects like the trine and sextile don't actively precipitate events like the hard aspect transits.
Because the hard aspects are active and dynamic in nature, transits involving them actively precipitate medical events and pathological manifestations. The transits that really count, or the ones to watch in Medical Astrology, are those involving the hard aspects, especially the conjunction, square or opposition. The transiting planet indicates the nature of the process, change or influence, and the planet being transited indicates the affected organ or physiological function. Transits occur when a transiting planet makes a significant aspect, or angular relationship, to key planets or configurations in the natal horoscope. If Uranus is making a challenging transit to the Moon, for example, one would want to prepare by doing a purification regime beforehand, to cleanse the stomach and bowels, and to be especially mindful of one's diet, while taking stomachic and carminative herbs and digestive tonics to optimize gastrointestinal function. Knowing that one is coming up in a month or two, one can prepare for it by taking herbal tonics to strengthen the nervous system. No longer is prevention limited to general hygiene, diet, nutrition and health maintenance, but can be targeted specifically at strengthening the organism against upcoming health challenges, as indicated by the transits and progressions to the natal horoscope.įor example, major Uranus transits can be very challenging and draining to the nervous system. Through prediction, Medical Astrology takes preventive medicine to a whole new level. The astrologer can tell when these health challenges will come, and what their nature will be. One distinctive virtue of Medical Astrology is its ability to predict upcoming health challenges that the individual will face through transits and pregressions to his/her natal horoscope.
