I hear Saturn's coming in of the noon train and he'll be gunnin' for you...

While talking with a friend from Minneapolis, whose Saturn returns in September, I realised that my Saturn is coming back in just under a year. This means that I need to use this year very wisely to get things in order, because this year, things will begin to crystalise and focus. I'd rather have this be a year of structuring and progression than a year of death and destruction.

Is it wrong that I was born in and have always lived in America, yet I have an innate tendency to spell words with the British 's' instead of a 'z'? I don't mean to exclude 'z'; I feel it's a deprived letter and should be used more. Why do I do this?!

I tend to use the English U. Like Colour.

I read that Americans anglicise words as a symptom of feelings of cultural inferiority.

American culture is like a soup that has not yet developed a skin.

I'm going to pretend that meant something until people nod their heads and agree.

I have felt the same way... I grew up a poor white kid in Oklahoma, so I never had any sense of "culture" until I found out I have Romani("gypsy") blood. Talk about "culture shock"! hehehe

I have been to Saudi Arabia during my military career, and let me say this: "I don't wanna go back!"


I've seriously contemplated moving to England though...

I have a tendency to interchange using either "s" or "z" (like realised or realized). Both are correct, so I don't worry too much about it.

Memories-memories. I was pregnant during my Saturn return. Then toss in a retrograde, had my little one, so it was definitely an important time when it occured, which means like my mother and I, my daughter has Saturn in Aries too. Ouch!

How does one figure out when their Saturn return is?
