Guest guest Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 This is a very good question. What is stress? It is also a very good SATURN question! Because Saturn's the 'sign' or symbolism of stress or balance! In other words Saturn is that part of Astrology that tells us if we're stressed or getting stressed! So, it's probably a good idea to reflect on stress and how it can be 'seen'! Hans Selye, a Montreal, Canadian Medical Doctor ....first coined the " stress " concept. Acutally he said there are 2 kinds of stress. Something called u-stress which just means life and living and the negative kind he called dis-stress to mean that which was harmful. Stress technically means any experience. Every experience causes the human nervous system to experience it. When we're fresh and full of energy we experience something and it doesn't leave an impression or a negative stress. But, if we're tired or imbalanced, then the experience causes an impresion that isn't immediately eliminated by the rest at night! This unrealize impression then, is technically what stress is! It's extemely important that we understand 'stress' because the build up of stress is the #1 cause of ill-health and disease and early premature death. Stress is also the #1 thing that aggravates Saturn. Because Saturn represents 'Balance' then when stress starts building up, imbalance soon follows. All Saturn problems in life; then get worse, as the build up of stress and fatigure continue. Memory suffers, tiredness results.... doing the 'wrong' thing at the wrong time happens often.... laziness or lethary too are due to the Saturn build up of stress... impatience....is definitely due to aggravated Saturn.... All manners of physical, emotional and mental dysfunction happens due to the build up of stress, and all manners of dis-ease and then, disease happen. The " cure " is an equal amount of rest! The body eliminates tiredness, fatigue and stress through it's resting periods. We rest at night for the whole next day! However, if we don't have a deep enough rest, or the stress has already gotten in there, then the rest of the daily cylce may not be enough. Anyone ever wake up, not completely refreshed!!!? Beware! This is due to stress! This is indicative of stress having gotten in there, and is in fact, one of the most important of Saturn's signs....'stress'! The " Solution " ? To find a deeper rest. For every stress in the body whether caused by single stresful events or due to the accumulation of stressful experiences; the ultimate solution is a deep enough rest! Imagine that all your stresses come with a volume tag. Some are #1 stresses, due to too much light during the day, or too much activity. The very moment we begin to rest, those light stresses begin to come out. But, some of our stresses are more like a 3, 4, or 5! Anything we experienced in the past that laid a deeper stress will stay in the nervous system at that present level until a complimentary level of 3, 4 or 5 of rest is gained! This is why a number of modern day doctors are becoming interested in Meditation, because meditation is the only thing that has been found to be able to give a deep enough level of rest to the body and mind. As a result over 600 scientific studies have been done on meditation over the last 35 years. In addition, many of them had to do with the improved health and physical improvement due to continual meditation. Some studies have even determined for each year of accumulated, regular meditation, the ageing process begins to reverse! Those who are meditaitng, for each 5 yeras, they begin to go back 2 or 3 biological years! Ever hear of biological vs. chronological ageing? Chronological agein of course means the exact # of years since birth. Biological agein is that standard of health or disease which is related to the ageing process. So, standsards of dysfunction have now been determined, respiratory rate, stess response, heart condition; all are able to determine someone's biological age! People who mediate are found growing in the ability to not only get rid of the build up of stress, but they begin to even reverse their ageing process! Very great news in the field of health, for sure! I like trying to explain stress in terms of Saturn becuase Saturn represents the tendency to push too hard, to not appreciate the importance of rest, and to accumulate stress. However, for those who are born with a good Saturn or learn about rest and rejuvenation, Stress and all the signs of Saturn stress can be relieved! Fun talking with you all today.
