Has Britney Seen the Light?

As faithful readers and devoted Britney Spears fans may recall, I recently recommended the recitation of a mantra and the meditation exercise of visualizing Britney surrounded by healing white light as a manifestation of support and encouragement for our beloved BritBrit. {Full story}

Now it looks as if Britney may have actually received this white light. Despite her attempt to evince a basic grasp of sarcasm in this video clip, I cannot help but choose to believe that her reference to white light -- mocking though it may sound -- suggests that this energetic manifestation may have actually, um, manifested.

Retrograde Saturn is approaching a station, which certainly describes Britney's contrarian attitude toward the lessons she's learned lately (i.e. "My management totally knew what they were doing when they sent me to rehab!" Um, Britney?... Yes, actually, they did.). Along with Saturn turning direct on Thursday, Tuesday's New Moon opposing Britney's natal Saturn-Pluto conjunction suggests that a fresh start is at hand. Britney can definitely turn this beat around if she works at it.

In the meantime, keep that white light coming!
