Fuegos post got me curious, does anyone here include the outer planets in their craft and divination? What are their purposes if so?
I personally do not, because including them just break the traditional models which seem to work for me. And they are practically fixed stars because of their massive period. I can't think of including them anything outside "aeonic magick" so to speak.
I don't partake in the usual planetary "traditions" and whatever those entail, but I do work with the Saturn Sphere and its essences as a supporting component of my path as a "Black" Elementalist.
From my experience, the Saturn Sphere and its spiritual essences are very resonant to my path as a practitioner who is immersed deeply into the Negative polarity, which isn't too surprising given Saturn's associations with darkness, death, and even the Abyss according to some sources, while the Original Intelligences of Saturn are mostly described as nightmarish beings who are the lords of Karma and Negativity above all others.
I invoke and indulge in Saturn's essences through various methods, whether it be direct activities like meditation, energy work, soul-work, and simple contemplation, or partaking in one of its material correspondences as a fervent Tobacco enthusiast (tobacco is strongly associated with Saturn, and I can say from personal experience that tobacco is a very convenient tonic quite surprisingly reminiscent of some actual invoked essences).
On the other hand, my relationship with Saturn is also used as a way to facilitate my Equipoise in regards to the Earth Element, as while its essences can certainly be deeply negative and helpful to me in that pursuit, they also work as more of a weighty, grounding negative force conducive to the Earth Element as opposed to the more purely Magnetic negative energies of the Lunar Sphere which I'm more intimately familiar with.
Thus I use this facet of Saturn as a tool to offset my strongly watery-magnetic tendencies as a Cancer ruled by the Moon and keep my Water-Earth dynamic in better balance. Being too watery-magnetic has caused me much grief in the past, but this practice prevents such issues in the future by stimulating my Earth-functioning and the corresponding faculties mentally and astrally.
In the future when my capabilities allow it, I eventually plan on getting into contact with the Original Intelligences of Saturn to dive deeper into my understanding of the Negative Polarity and the process of becoming a Negative Intelligence, as there is a strong likelihood that my path ends with becoming a secondary Intelligence of that Sphere, or at least an Intelligence of the Earth-Zone with strong Saturnine associations.
All that is far, far down the road for me though, of course.
So for now and the quite distant foreseeable future, my relationship with Saturn will maintain its modest dynamic.
