John Lennon...Saturn in Taurus in 2nd. House.     6 views

Taurus is an Earth Sign, which implies a practical and material outlook. The nature is to take time, to plant a seed and watch it grow until the flower is ready to be plucked. In this way, the urge to gain is a gradual process, to put money in the bank and watch the interest grow.
However, with Saturn seated in the 2nd. House of Taurus, this intensifies the urge to be materially and emotionally secure, to fear the idea of poverty so that one has to go cap in hand and beg. In this way, one with Saturn in Taurus might become miserly or collective, hugging possessions tight to the chest in fear of being robbed.

It has to be understood that another name for Saturn is ‘Old Father Time’, pictured as an old man with a scythe and so, with Saturn in Taurus, it is easy to understand that one with this combination in their Birth Chart would be born with a psychological fear of being old and in poverty.
It can be claimed that one with Saturn in Taurus sees possessions as one’s psychological ‘Power-Point’, that having more than the next makes one superior. Many business people have Saturn in Taurus.

Over time, one has to learn to deal with finances and possessions, to relax and evolve so that possessions are not the ‘Be-all’ and ‘End-all’ of life, to be comfortable with what one has.

John Lennon, of Beatles fame, had been born with Saturn in Taurus in his Birth Chart and would have hated the thought of growing up in poverty. The idea of making money through his career was the driving point and he was lucky enough to have been financially helped by his family to gain the instruments he needed.
Had he been born without such financial help then his youth would have been far more difficult. He certainly understood the nature of finance and of the ‘Haves’ and the ‘Have-Nots’. One remembers his words to an audience at a concert, when he shouted… “Those at the back in the cheap seats, clap your hands. Those in the front, just rattle your jewelry!”
Once he had amassed his millions, the fear of poverty relaxed and he then set himself apart from the world of the rich and the famous, his wealth and reputation put to bed.

Tomorrow will see Mick Jagger with Saturn in Gemini.
