“[Saturn] rules profound sciences, and the science of laws and seeking out the causes and roots of things and their effects, and speaking of wonders and understanding deep and secret qualities… When he is in good disposition and in his exaltation, however, he signifies purity, length of life, exaltation, joy, honour, wealth, inheritance, and the transmission of inheritances to sons and nephews.” – Picatrix, translated by John Michael Greer and Christopher Warnock
This election is for Saturn dignified in Aquarius and a dark (or eld of) the Moon. The traditional lore suggests a waning moon is beneficial for such things as invisibility, for reducing the influence of a thing, for malefic magic, or – if we think of the moon as old instead of waning – good for prolonging the effect of things or for long life.
