Here’s How Saturn Stationing Direct Will Change Your Life, Based On Your Zodiac Sign
Saturn in Pisces is a confusing transit. While Saturn is exalted in boundary-loving Capricorn and revolutionary Aquarius, dreamy and mystical Pisces does not do particularly well under the guardianship of a leader who likes to play by the rules.
With Saturn now direct at exactly 0° of Pisces, this summer’s AI illusions and creative restrictions are beginning to lift. We will begin to move forward with renewed artistic inspiration and faith. In true Pisces fashion, this cosmic reset will feel a little something like time travel: heading right back to the beginning of this transit cycle back in March 2023.
If you were born between 1994 and early 1996, and you’re currently undergoing your Saturn return, your experience of this transit is inevitably going to be much more transformative than your peers’. Regardless, the power of Saturn is strong enough to impact all of us. Saturn will retrograde in and out of Pisces up until 2026, so we might as well make ourselves comfortable with this energy, since it’s going to be here for a while.
Look to the house Pisces rules in your birth chart to see which area of your life will experience major change.
Aries
Saturn first entered your twelfth house of dreams, drugs, and the subconscious back in March, and you almost certainly experienced an uncharacteristic desire to self-isolate. Though the typical Aries impulse is to get out in the world and stay physically active, the upcoming three-year period is likely to be a more solitary one during which you spend more time thinking about your spiritual practices. You may find this period painful or lonely, but the reward will be great when it is over. You will grow more spiritually mature and perhaps gain divine insights—keep a dream journal by your bed and start listening to guided meditations.
Taurus
Back in March, you undoubtedly noticed a shift in your larger community and social circle, Taurus. This provided you with more opportunities to expand your knowledge and meet people who understood you at the deepest and purest level. With Saturn direct once again in your eleventh house, you are ready to jump right back into your newfound social groups and learn as much as you can. You won’t have to experience your dark night of the soul alone over the next few years, although your group of esoteric friends might be karmic and therefore unsettling in some ways. They are meant to disrupt you and force you out of your comfort zone. This is not necessarily a bad thing.
Gemini
Your career likely ground to an abrupt halt during Saturn retrograde, Gemini, even after a very promising spring. Chances are, you got an offer you couldn’t refuse, only to get waylaid by bureaucratic issues—or you had to make a choice between your public reputation and your closest relationships. Now that Saturn is direct in your tenth house, you can narrow your focus. Spend the next several years building your legacy and taking your public image more seriously. This is not the time to try out everything and see what sticks; rather, it’s the time to map out a five-year plan and commit to it. Get your Pinterest mood boards ready and start believing you can create the future you want.
Cancer
When Saturn first entered your ninth house back in March, Cancer, you likely felt the first nagging desires to expand your knowledge—be it through private religious study, travel abroad, or going back to school. If Saturn retrograde put these dreams on hold, you can now pursue them with a renewed confidence. Some of you will convert to a new practice; others will make an unexpected academic shift or choose to move abroad. Whatever your personal story might be, you can be sure that you will start seeing the world through new eyes. You will spend the next several years reckoning with how to balance your everyday responsibilities with your gripping desire for higher knowledge. You will adopt new strategies that enable you to infuse the sacred into the mundane.
Leo
Despite your reputation as the most extroverted sign, Leo, Saturn in your eighth house of darkness and taboo is encouraging you to go deeper than you might feel comfortable with. You likely made a commitment back in March to spend less time partying or casual dating, or you were forced to act more mature for the children in your family. After a brief summer fling, you’re back at square one: trying to figure out how to balance your naturally fun-loving personality with the dark and transformative energy pervading your life right now. Deaths in the family, complications involving inheritances, and paying off debts are surefire ways to make the childlike Leo grow up fast.
Virgo
When Saturn briefly transited your seventh house in the spring, Virgo, you likely had a reckoning of sorts. You developed a stronger understanding of what you truly want out of relationships, marriage, and your closest partnerships. Now that Saturn is once again direct, expect major moves to take place in this area of your life. If you’re in a relationship, expect that it will be taken to the next level within the following three years. Lots of you will end up engaged. Even if you’re single right now, you might be married by the time this transit is over in 2026. While you might be nervous to take things too fast, the maturity and wisdom that Saturn imparts during this time will give you the know-how to navigate the challenges.
Libra
Saturn moved into your sixth house back in March, Libra, but after a period of retrograde, your daily habits and work routine have felt frustratingly constrained. Fortunately, now that Saturn is direct again, you can move forward in confidence, using your natural charisma to level up in the workplace and communicate more effectively with your coworkers—even if they hold strongly different ideologies. You might have strong convictions, but you’re capable of diplomatically communicating with people who think differently than you. This is a quality worth celebrating. Even if it feels like you’re the only one pursuing peace in a warring workplace, the bonds you form with the people you see every day will only grow stronger—and you might teach others how to be more tactful, too.
Scorpio
Your fifth house of creativity, pleasure, and children first saw some changes back in March, Scorpio. Saturn put a halt on your plans—for a new project, affair, or possible pregnancy—for the summer, but now you’re back in action. You can expect to find an uncomfortable conflict between your desire for hedonism and new financial responsibilities. It might be time to put your impulse spending to rest or start enjoying more quiet Friday nights at home. This period of time will gradually push you towards greater productivity and maturity, making you recognize the value of establishing your own boundaries. You will very likely return to that passion project you started in the springtime—and yes, some of you might become parents.
Sagittarius
Since the springtime, your home life has felt increasingly restrictive, Sagittarius. You haven’t felt the freedom to be yourself or to figure out who that even is. Whether you’re buying a home for the first time, moving in with a partner, or parting ways with a roommate who has overstayed their welcome in your space and life, something about your domestic life will be irrevocably changed over the next several years as Saturn transits through your fourth house. Elderly relatives may expect more from you than you are able to give—or you might start noticing traits in yourself that you dislike in your parents. This is a time for stoic reflection on what it means to be wholly and authentically autonomous in a world largely colored by others’ perspectives of you thus far.
Capricorn
Conflicts between your siblings and members of your local community have likely made the past few months a challenge for you, Capricorn. But with Saturn once again stationing direct in your third house, you’re likely to find more constructive ways to convey your ideals. You are known for your cutthroat work ethic and not for your tact, but for the next several years, Saturn is working to make you a more considerate communicator—especially to those closest to you. You might not normally be inclined to trust your dreams as a source of divine revelation, but this is a time when you should be journaling anything that comes to you during your sleep. Your subconscious is not necessarily a frightening place.
Aquarius
It’s time to enlist the help of your larger social network, Aquarius, because you’ve got debts to pay off and a future to invest in. You might not typically concern yourself with such plebeian issues as money, but your finances will be under review while Saturn spends time in your second house for the next few years. Thankfully, your large group of friends and colleagues can broaden your world and provide you with chances for economic expansion. You will learn the hard way that sometimes, despite your dramatic humanitarian goals, reality comes before ideology. You need the resources to put your dreams into action, and more importantly, you need community. You might find this period of time especially trying, but if you hang in there, you will be rewarded for your efforts.
Pisces
When Saturn made its first brief entrance into your first house back in March, Pisces, you likely felt immediate changes to your sense of self and identity, perhaps feeling constrained by others’ expectations of you or being nagged with a persistent sense that you needed to accomplish something important in your career. You are likely to feel much more of this energy for the next several years, as the influence of Saturn permeates your material reality. Take care of your body and take time to rest; your heightened responsibilities are likely to manifest physically at this time. Take precautionary measures before burnout brings you down.
