The square aspect–roughly
ninety degrees–is an aspect that causes conflict and creates tensions.
Many astrologers note
that the qualities of the square aspect shares very much in common with the
archetype of Saturn–limitations, frustrations, tension, and forcible engagement
in concrete, noticeable terms. Thus, this alignment imposes a double dose
of the restrictive and confining elements seen in Saturn upon the Uranian
impulse toward freedom and liberation.
On all levels–materially,
psychologically, socially, politically–this configuration has the equivalent
tension of a giant beach ball submerged well below the surface of the ocean.
For the majority of the time, this tension is kept in taught, albeit strained,
equilibrium. However, at certain points, the Saturnian restriction is so great
as to force the beach ball to implode. The converse is true as well. The upward
pressure of the beach ball–represented by Uranus–will escape the downward
pressure and rise with great force to the surface.
These moments when the
dynamic tension between Saturn and Uranus is suddenly and forcibly undone–if
only momentarily–is most obviously seen on a material level. This Saturn-square-Uranus
energy is most easily observed in sudden catastrophes, explosions, crushing
collisions, mishaps, and the freak, one-in-a-million accident.
No summer season is without
its high number of accidents and tragedies. Given the increasing reliance
upon technology, the increasing world population, and–for many–the increasing
disposable income for travel and leisure, there is bound to be an increasing
number of fatalities and accidents due to mechanical and technological breakdown.
