Saturn Retro 2025: 05: Difference and Repetition

My 5th post on Saturn Retro 2025. After a few days of illness perfectly coincident to the Gravitas phase, today's the first day I stepped out of home in the evening. For a brief while. Due to weakness everything was blurry, shaky. I was woozy...


I could feel time stopping, even moving backwards. A thousand, million images of the past flashing through my mind's eyes. 20 years of recorded journaling, blogging, research of Saturn retrograde since 2005!!

πŸ‘†πŸΌπŸ‘†πŸΌ The above passage in italics was copied/ pasted from my previous post: 04
Why? Because the magnitude of songs, music, movies that bombarded me from THE PAST since past two days. Everything was in auto flashback mode. And in every singular retrograde movement, perception, lyric, melody, chord, nuance.. I found relief and healing. From the prevailing illness. From the prevailing alienation and despondency...


Just adJUST yourselves, surrender yourselves freely to the Saturn retrograde current of this time. For Shanidev/ Saturn rules over time itself. Just stay Retrograde. Retro. Voluntary backwards fall. Drown yourselves in existential RETROSPECTION. So easy to access such language specifically during Retrograde. 9th House: Saturn + Ketu conjunction in Gemini.

Through a erratic, haywire, haphazard, lifetime... the seasons of retrograde have remained constant. providing it's steady constant through variations of life. Binding it all together. In a coiling mesh of meaningless-ness, and meaning..Difference and Repetition by Deleuze finally made practical, physical, tangible sense. The sheer gravity of Gravitas clawing, and dragging the lofty metaphysical into the soiled mud of the physical. Into tangible experience. Into the ground reality far outside the academic theoretical hallways.

Theory, memory, intangible, fleeting memories condensated into mud, flesh.. The sinews of the tangible.


Today I used what's app AI, for the first to generate these images below πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌ of the The Hanged Man, card 12 of the Tarot Deck.. for my Ketu Currents blog. The 4th image, I then colour adjusted it, and added to my blog.. 




This card represents the necessary stillness, pause, retrospective mood characteristic of Annual Saturn Retrograde. I think that's enough for today πŸ™πŸΌπŸ™πŸΌπŸ™πŸΌ
