When it comes to astrology, Saturn is probably one of the most feared and revered planets. It's because this planet rules things like boundaries, restrictions, discipline, and, of course, karma.
Saturn likes to put pressure on our lives. If you're one of the 4 zodiac signs most affected by Saturn in Pisces, expect to feel like you're in some kind of spiritual boot camp.
You will have grown in countless ways by the time this is over because maturation is always the result of growing pains.
Saturn leaves Aquarius and enters Pisces on March 7
Saturn will, over the course of the next three years, open our eyes to the ways in which we have allowed our imaginations and feelings to lead us astray.
If you've ever found yourself wishing you could return to a simpler time then this transit will serve as a reminder that looking back with nostalgia on an imperfect past will only cloud and blur your view of the future.
As the last sign of the zodiac wheel, Pisces is all about everything that has to do with endings, forgiveness, and progression.
When Saturn travels through this ethereal and transcendent sign, it encourages you to put some healthy distance between yourself and the events of the past so that you can start to accept what the future has in store for you.
If your Sun or Rising sign falls under one of the mutable signs, you'll feel the effects of Saturn in Pisces even more intensely. Read on to find out why:
Gemini
Are you prepared to give your career the utmost importance it has ever received? When Saturn is in Pisces, it exerts pressure on your tenth house of career.
Saturn will force you to start taking your goals more seriously and let go of pipe dreams if you are not currently embarking on a career path that means something to you.
Saturn will draw your attention to the places and ways you have made mistakes if you haven't made enough changes and your efforts have begun to wane.
Your reputation and your career will go through many ups and downs during this time, but this transit will ultimately strengthen your career in ways that it has never been strengthened before.
When your professional life seems to be going nowhere, you need to pick yourself up and refuse to accept defeat.
Virgo
In the course of the next three years, Saturn will force you to take your romantic relationships more seriously and establish clear boundaries.
Pisces is your seventh house of partnerships, allies, and enemies as well as spouses, which indicates that you are both tough and nurturing.
Saturn will point out any and all weak points in the bonds that you have formed with the people in your life.
Since Saturn is a planet that rewards consistency and commitment, its presence in your chart may indicate that you are ready to take the next step in your relationship with a friend or lover, which could mean that you are ready to get married.
Saturn is a planet that does not tolerate immaturity and bad behavior. Because of this, this planet will show you whether or not the dynamics of your relationships are healthy.
This might make things more difficult for you, as Saturn will make every effort to prevent you from wasting your time on meaningless experiences and scenarios.
You will, fortunately, come out of this experience with more confidence regarding your personal situations.
Sagittarius
Saturn in Pisces has the effect of speeding up the process of karma, which can be an unsettling and revealing experience.
As Saturn travels through your fourth house of home, family, roots, and loved ones, it will be sifting through things from your past, and your personal life.
Profound and intense truths relating to your family and the dynamics of your home will surface, compelling you to fix divisions and set boundaries that will enable you to have a healthier relationship with your family.
This transit will encourage you to take action with your life situation and work toward forging something that is even stronger. Saturn will remind you that building a house takes time.
This transit will serve as a reminder to you to engage even more deeply in your personal life. Although having a lot of money and being successful are both very important, none of those things are as important as having a home, a family, and honor.
Pisces
The one who is most affected by Saturn is of course Pisces. You may feel as though a lot of pressure is being placed on your shoulders as Saturn spends the next three years exerting its influence over your first house of identity and personality.
There are a lot of things in your life that are coming to an end, but there are even better things that are about to start.
You may be more critical of yourself as a result of Saturn's transit through your sign; however, this is only because you will suddenly begin to expect more of yourself.
Saturn will force you to recognize all that you are capable of accomplishing, and as a result, you will no longer make excuses or lower your standards.
And unless you begin to take things a little more seriously, you run the risk of settling for less than you are deserving of.
Increase your level of self-esteem and be kind to yourself, because the energy of Saturn may not be pleasant, but the reward that this planet will bring you is a much more profound.
