On December 23rd at 11:33am EST, Saturn moves into Sagittarius where it will be until December 2017 (brief retrograde back to Scorpio next summer).
How will it influence your chart? Take a look at your natal chart and see what house Saturn is transiting.
Saturn in the 1st
house: You may get quiet and reserved. You may have
insecurities come up that suggest you are ‘not good enough’. Why you believe it? God knows I don’t know. But what is more
important as those insecurities come up you will have opportunities to dig in and
fix situations. You can come out of
this transit even better and stronger than when it starts. And the skills you learn for the next two
years will serve you the rest of your life.
Remember you will not have this aspect again for 29 years. Make the most of it.
Saturn in 2nd You are careful about your money. You may feel blue that you don’t have
enough. You could question how you spent
your money in the past. Again, what is
important is to make practical changes now so that by the time this transit is
over you feel like you have good stewardship over your money and
possessions. You will also learn that money and things don’t
buy happiness or friendship or love. But that does not mean you should not want
some practical solid things in your life.
Saturn in 3rd: You are focused on your writing and
research. You could go inward and be
less social. You pull back from
siblings and neighbors. You are unsure of your communication skills. But you have the ability to be very
focused. You can come of out this will
more skills to talk about what is important for you and not waste your oxygen
on the frivolous. By the end of this
transit, you learn how to have real, solid connections with others and not just
shallow interactions.
Saturn in the 4th
house. Family responsibilities seems
great. Anything around moms feels
hard. Watch what you eat. Food can irritate stomach etc. If you have a home that feels too big, you
will want to downsize. If you have a
house that is just ‘off’ you will want to unload it and start over again. If your emotions have dictated your life too
much don’t be surprised if you pull back your emotions. By the time this transit is over you will be
shocked by how you harness your emotions and feelings. You may surprise yourself how little you cry
over stuff.
Saturn in the 5th. You feel like you are in a creative
desert. You feel unloved. You feel like there is no romance in your
life. Where can you get practical on
all these subjects? How can you get
practical about your creativity? Is
there a hands on class you need to take?
Do you need to reach out to someone who knows how to access creativity? Do they have practical tips for you? Do
you just need to do stuff daily bit by bit to find your creativity and
passion? If you are feeling unloved then
ask yourself—“How can I love myself?”
What can you do seriously that takes care of you? If you are in a loveless relationship, is it
time to cut your losses? Is it time to
find a good therapist? Is it time to go
to a 12-step meeting. Get practical
about your love, passion and creativity.
By the time this transit is over you will have renewed sense of loving
self.
Saturn in 6th: Where do you need new skills at work? What
is going on with your body? What is
going on with your diet? What do your
daily habits look like? Are they helping
you? What is your health about? Is your work a drain? Why is that your daily job? What practical moves do you need to make to
get a new job? And how the hell do you
manage your time? Do you piss it away by
being disorganized? By the end of this
cycle you will have a new understanding on what it looks like to manage your
resources daily.
Saturn in 7th
house: Are your relationships more work
than you want? Who is not pulling their weight? Have you been phoning in relationships and
now it is coming back to hurt you? Where
do you need to be more responsible in relationships? What kind of discipline do you need to
bring to relationships? If you can clean up your side of the street
how does it impact your partnerships?
If you have been alone for years perhaps this transit will bring in
someone serious. If you have been in a
relationship but have felt alone in that relationship you may assess that you
can no longer live that way and will seek a change. Or perhaps you and your partner will
actually work at a business together.
Saturn in the 8th
house: Your soul is about to go through
an evolution. Deep fears around
commitment will be challenged. Issues
around taxes and debt will be pronounced.
Death and rebirth are compelling issues. What parts of your life need to die and be
reborn? What roles have you
outgrown? Your intuition will be
high. Work with fate to ask for divine
timing so that you can make important changes. Sex and sensual interests can go cold but
sometimes you may just need to make time for both. If it is important to you find a way to
make the time. By the time this transit
is over you will have a new commitment to shared resources.
Saturn in the 9th: There could be frustration around
travel. Perhaps you want to travel and
can’t for various reasons. Or perhaps
you have not traveled very much in your life and now you make it a
priority. It could take a lot of
discipline and hard work to get that trip in your future. Also, you could be asked for your opinion on
various situations and you may sound like a bigot. Is that how you want to be perceived? Or do
you not care? You get serious about
your writing. Where you feel insecure
about your education? Perhaps you will put yourself out there
despite your perceived “lacking” pedigree.
By the time you end this cycle you will have a better understanding
about your opinions and how they do or do not serve you.
Saturn in 10th: Your career is paramount. You feel insecure that you are not out there
in the world. Are you too small? Why?
How long have you been hiding?
Why? It is no longer a
comfortable spot to be some anonymous person in some anonymous world. You look at your world and want to be apart
of it in a significant way. It will take
hard work and discipline but you relish the opportunity to be
self-reliant. You get a lot of jobs
done.
Saturn in 11th
house: You are asked to look at your
friends. Do you have any? Do you still groove with the older friends
whom you have had for years? Where are
you stepping up for groups? Are you
willing to be there for the group and not have personal recognition? Do you
feel abandoned by groups and friends? Is
it time for new circles? How does new
technology work in your life? How do the
groups of people who surround you support your own objectives? Are you in sync? Is it time for new support?
Saturn in the 12th
house: Fears that can’t be explained may
come up. Insecurities you never have had
previously start to emerge. Unresolved
father issues come up. Therapy will be
of considerable help. Doing work out of
the public eye will help. Charity work
is a salve. Healing hurts in this lifetime
and past life times are ready to be tackled.
No matter how stressful life get resist the urge to be a victim. At the very least lump issues as “karmic burn
off” and move on. Get practical about
your faith. Learn the power of prayer.
