SATURN IS COMING TO COLLECT: Saturn Rx
What commitments in your life need to shift?
Saturn is currently gearing up to go retrograde (stationed) which brings pressure and intensity, especially with this malefic planet of strain, restriction, and limitation..
If recently you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, experiencing restrictions, delays, loss, questioning yourself or your goals/ambitions, or met with resistance — Saturn stationed might be why.
Saturn will station retrograde in 19° Pisces on 6/29 until it turns direct on 11/15 in 12° Pisces.
This is most significant for those with placements between 12-19° in mutable signs (Pisces, Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius)
The ringed planet Saturn holds dominion over commitments, karma, boundaries, structure, discipline, limitations and the passage of time. Pisces, a mutable water sign, signifies sensitivity, spirituality, and the depths of the subconscious. It embodies the realm where boundaries blur and emotions flow freely.
When Saturn, the stern taskmaster, turns retrograde in the ethereal waters of Pisces, the sign traditionally ruled by expansive Jupiter, major shifts happen..
On a collective level, Saturn in Pisces has been illuminating and challenging aspects such as our dreams and imagination, our capacity for compassion, emotional + energetic boundaries, and our illusions.
During the Retrograde period, especially for those with placements between 12-19° in mutable signs — Saturn is urging you to reflect, reconsider & recommit.
Reflection prompts:
•Where do you need to establish firmer emotional and energetic boundaries?
• Where, what, or who do you need to stop investing your energy in?
•How can you ground your dreams in practical reality?
•Which illusions are preventing you from seeing the truth of your situation?
•What aspects of your spiritual practice require reevaluation or adjustment?
•What commitments in your life need to shift?
As Jupiter and Saturn in Pisces approach their square (exact August 19), this period could bring about tension, a shift in your pursuit of your hopes and goals, and separation from people + circumstances that are no longer serving you…
Remember there’s power in the pivot and to choose opportunities that broaden your horizons & release you from what previously held you back.
Look to the houses in your chart ruled by Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces to understand where this energy starting to build as Saturn is currently stationed preparing to go Rx and which areas will be influenced by Saturn Rx (6/29 - 11/15).
Saturn will primarily form the following aspects during its Rx motion:
1. Conjunction: Saturn will conjunct any planets or points between 12-19° in Pisces. This indicates a time of intensified Saturnian influence, highlighting reflection and reconsideration of responsibilities, commitments, and the need for discipline and maturity in the area of life represented by the planet or point being conjoined. Individuals may feel a stronger sense of duty or may face challenges that require perseverance and patience.
2. Opposition: Saturn will oppose any planets or points between 12-19° in Virgo. This aspect creates tension and challenges between Saturnian themes (such as structure, discipline) and the qualities associated with Virgo (practicality, detail orientation, service). There may be a need to find balance between work and health, or between responsibilities and personal routines, during this period, prompting reflection and reconsideration of how to manage these conflicting energies.
3. Square: Saturn will square any planets or points between 12-19° in Gemini and Sagittarius. This aspect indicates obstacles and conflicts that need to be addressed through effort and persistence. In Gemini, challenges may arise in communication, learning, or decision-making processes, requiring reflection and reconsideration of how to approach these areas more effectively. In Sagittarius, tensions related to belief systems, travel plans, or educational pursuits may prompt individuals to reconsider their goals and strategies.
