Saturian Keys

Every twelve years I die
Just as Saturn goes around the Sun
Every twelve years
Black Vultures circle around me

Saturn that very distance planet
pulls on the Earth energy
causing people to work harder and governments
to tighten their financial belts

Saturn that dark and underworld planet
The black horse of the apocalypse
Rides in the night and measures a wheat for a penny

One of my deaths was in 2008 and I could not walk
Saturn was in my Sun sign then
Near-death experience of me travelling down a radiating tube of light
Lead me to a Black Cube where I met Jesus who said
Go back home son
Its not your time

The next time when Saturn  was in my raising sign and on my half-birth
I saw the other side or the veil
and it was more than thin
a white transcendent cloud engulfed me everywhere I went
in unlikely places like home and Giant Food Stores

This was 12 years after my last and most recent death
But this time I thought it was the final one and that
my life was over or at least that is what the professionals told me

Every Saturian death a gift is offered
a key that can be used for this life or the next life
And that key will open a door
At the right time

Saturn was in my raising sign and on my half-birth
but my Sun sign this time was in the house of Scorpio
the phoenix that raises from the ashes

And I was re-born again in this twelfth year of my life
and in the twelfth house of Pisces and in the Aquarian Age
