Saturn Retrograde in Aquarius - Time to Reform & Restructure Values

It’s about a significant transit of the year - that is Saturn getting retro on 30th June @ 25° in Purvabhadrapada.

Saturn will be stationary direct in Shatatara nak @ 18° on 16th Nov.

When Saturn is retrograde in Aquarius, the typical energies of Saturn, such as discipline, structure, our social responsibility, duties, or any restrictions of life, will be revisited.

Saturn's other chief significations, like health, career, our deeds, the masses, the poor, and old people, will also be re-evaluated.

This period is ideal for reassessing the effectiveness and fairness of our social systems, with a focus on reforming the old.

Now there is a need to reflect on our responsibilities and personal discipline, especially in areas related to our health, career, elders in our life, or any social obligations.

We can manage with innovative ways, teamwork, and progressive thinking.

This retro Saturn has a tight aspect on Aries and Mars placed there - then Leo and Scorpio sign.

Interestingly, Saturn has eyes on its both rival’s zone… Sun and Mars’s sign and even on Mars.

It’s something tough or challenging that Saturn wants to achieve here with this retro which has everyone’s interest.

This time may test our patience. Expect conflict of interest and power struggle.

Issues related to law and order, elders in life or authority, and our responsibility may come to the forefront.

There might be a need to balance our power… by respecting the established rules and structures.

We can be evaluated, reviewed, and analyzed on what we did in the past one year. Expect the results in the same proportion.

Normally direct Saturn gives external impact. It gives challenges or obstacles in our task, in a way, it increases our patience, endurance and helps us to be strong.

But with retro transit, the impact can be felt more internally… that can help us reflect on our past actions, and review everything deeply.

It’s an opportunity to seriously look closely if we are on the right path….

Saturn will be slower than normal but strong while in retrogression as Saturn will be close to Earth, so, its power to do good or bad will be greater.

There can be problems, only if…we don’t fulfill our responsibilities with honesty…

And this time we have dignified Saturn in its own sign…Aquarius, the 11th sign of the natural zodiac, sign of desire fulfillment.

The stationary time of 10-12 days and the degree of Saturn …25° and 18° are very important to note.

Check, if you have planets placed at this degree with + or - 1°… then expect a major shift in that area during this time.

This is the time of realization… of what needs our review and corrections.

It’s like you stop, have pause and think about what you missed or left behind in a hurry earlier.

Saturn’s focus is now behind, on some pending work related to Shatatara Nak.

The aim is clear to give a final touch to that work, which was started when the last Saturn visited Shatatara, in March and April 2024 around this 18°

Saturn moves slowly... causing delay, frustration, restriction, and anxiety because of that.

Saturn is all that we generally don't like, so it is said to give us sorrow, and grief.

Saturn is getting stationary direct in Shatatara @ 18° where Rahu - lord of Shatatara is in Saturn’s U Bhadrapad. ?

So, we have the nakshatra exchange of Saturn and Rahu in October and November this year.

This can lead to a strong push for social reforms and restructuring at a collective level. Mars will also be retro in Dec this year, which signifies certain transformations at some level where Aquarius is placed.

Saturn’s traditional and conservative nature can conflict with Rahu’s unconventional, progressive but risk-taking tendencies.

This tension can lead to a struggle between maintaining established traditions and embracing new, innovative approaches.

Here the connection of Saturn and Rahu can indicate the need to face karmic lessons related to social responsibilities.

We may confront issues that require a balance between personal ambitions and collective welfare.

The time demands our attention and some final action on this before Saturn crosses Shatatara.

We may not have a similar opportunity to make such major changes after this for the next 30 years… so make the most of this time and do the needful.

We may see the visible results when we have a conjunction of Saturn and Rahu in Pisces in April 2025.

Embrace this period as an opportunity to align your actions with your values and contribute to everyone’s progress.

Also, Saturn in Shatatara is capable of giving cures or solutions to not only diseases but difficulties of all kinds if we use the energies well…

Rahu in Uttara Bhadrapada can bring ending and transformation.

Shatatara has the power to heal, destroy our enemies, and give unique ideas with new ways of thinking to solve the toughest issues…

Expect clear communication with confidence in our intelligence.

Saturn will bring all the needed corrections and Rahu will build that area with solid foundations…

Rahu is an agent of Saturn…so Rahu will bring fluctuations with those changes and some lasting results where Pisces is placed in our chart.

Apart from all this, retro Saturn can be best used to rebuild old connections and collaborate with groups to get things done.

Jupiter the lord of Purvabhadrapad is lord of the 2nd and 11th house for Aquarius. So ultimately there will be gains and rewards for all that you do.

There will be certainly some restrictions with regard to Aquarius placement, maybe you will be forced to work alone in that area without much support.

It’s best to believe in yourself, have stability, and push your limits.

Especially take care of your health… Retrogression is not good for health matters as you might observe repetition in your problems…

And Saturn is the prime significator of health, suffering, any kind of pain in the body, all chronic diseases, and also our longevity.

Aquarius represents lower legs and ankles. Afflicted and retro Saturn can bring back our old chronic ailment on the surface

With retro Saturn, we can deal with these issues in a different way …in Saturn’s way…

It’s time to use natural cures and put more effort in the right direction.

Aquarius signifies a fixed air element. Saturn in Aquarius can bring change in our thoughts, our fixed, at times stubborn views on life and the world…

Saturn will show us the reality and can discard those beliefs that are no longer helping us to grow in life.

Also, retro Saturn will work on collecting and merging new…. different ideas...

Let us see, individually for each ascendent, what we can expect.

Aquarius values personal freedom and individuality, while Saturn emphasizes responsibility and duty.

This retrograde phase can bring up challenges related to balancing personal independence with social responsibilities.

Check Saturn and Jupiter ruled signs - Aquarius-Capricorn, and Sagittarius-Pisces, along with Taurus where Jupiter is placed for the impact.
