Saturn in Transit and GROWTH? Yes, Discover the Key in Each of the 12 Houses

Saturn takes approximately 29.5 years to make a full turn around the zodiac, so every 7 years it will make conjunctions, squares or oppositions to important planets and points in our birth chart. Although often feared for its reputation as a "malefic" planet, Saturn transits are actually our most powerful allies for growth and maturity. How, then, can we turn these transits into golden opportunities for advancement and personal fulfillment?

Let's not fall into the trap

Saturn's trap is pessimism and fear. We must NEVER let them defeat us. Here are some ideas to always keep in mind so as not to lose perspective when we experience a Saturn transit:

1. At the beginning of the transition, it seems like our life slows down. Frustrations, setbacks, projects that don't turn out the way we wanted, scarcity—of love, money, understanding, energy, etc.

2. Then, it becomes necessary to face reality and become aware of what is, instead of what we would like.

3. Time to make decisions: Saturn transits often push us to make better use of our resources and be more conservative with them.

4. Hard work. This is probably the most characteristic step of Saturn transits. If we really put in the effort – and without taking shortcuts – success is practically guaranteed. Not immediately, because with Saturn nothing is, but that doesn't mean that our perseverance will bear fruit.

It is crucial to engrave these ideas deeply in our minds, so that when we face the challenges of Saturn, we can remember them and avoid falling into the trap of pessimism.

Okay, now that we've memorized this part, let's get to the impressive side of Saturn.

Saturn the Benign

Saturn is none other than the guardian of the idyllic Golden Age described by Hesiod. In those mythical days, mankind enjoyed an existence free of hardship and conflict; the earth offered its fruits generously, ensuring well-being and peace. This parallel is no coincidence: it assures us that Saturn's influence is an opportunity to sow and work towards our own personal Golden Age, where the fruits of our labour can flourish abundantly and permanently.

Let's now see how to maximize the transit of Saturn in each house of your birth chart to build your own Golden Age:

House 1

This transit begins with Saturn crossing our ascendant, an important moment in our lives as it asks us to be accountable to ourselves regarding what we have and have not manifested in the last 29.5 years (being the intersection of earth and sky, the ascendant is related to manifestation on the physical plane).

If we have not prepared ourselves properly for this moment in our lives, this transit will let us know through plans falling apart or some kind of loss. Let us remember that we can always, always do something about it during Saturn transits; and that the sooner we take responsibility, the sooner this bitter experience will end and we can move on to the positive phase of this transit.

Because the 1st house is associated with the physical body, it is not uncommon for us to have to face some health problem and the consequent loss of vital energy that this brings us. This, with the purpose of making us aware of our limits on a physical level and realizing that the passage of time is not in vain. If we work with what we have, we will be able to achieve our goals. It is more than what As we would like things to be, this transit will help us have an infinitely more solid and mature sense of who we are and how we stand in the world. On a very positive note, Saturn contracts everything it touches, so this is an excellent period to lose weight if we need to.

Tips for Saturn Transiting your 1st House:

1. Adopt a Healthy Routine: This is the perfect time to implement a balanced exercise and eating routine. Saturn asks you for discipline; use it to improve your physical well-being.

   

2. Recognize Your Limits: Learn to listen to your body and accept your physical limits. Don't push yourself beyond what you can give, and find a balance between activity and rest.

3. Honest Self-Assessment: Use this period for a deep self-assessment. Who are you and what do you want to be? Saturn is pushing you to define yourself in a more mature and responsible way.

4. Planning and Organization: If you have an idea for a new business or project, it's time to plan meticulously. Structure your plans with realism and patience.

5. Patience: Understand that results will not be immediate. Saturn teaches over time, so patience is not only a virtue, but a necessity.

Positive Outcomes at the End of This Transit:

- Strengthening of Character: At the end of the transit, you will be able to notice a stronger and more resilient version of yourself, with a clear identity and purpose.

- Improved Physical Health: Adopting healthy habits can lead to significant improvements in your physical health and vitality.

- Success in Long-Term Projects: Projects initiated with the discipline of Saturn have the potential to blossom into tangible success, especially if handled with patience and perseverance. Surely a project you start during this transit will mature within 7 years when Saturn squares your ascendant. However, it is highly likely that you will begin to see the first results of your work when Saturn is moving through the last degrees of your 1st house.

- Maturity and Responsibility: This transit teaches you to be more responsible and mature, especially in how you present yourself to the world and handle your personal affairs. If you were seeking a position of leadership and/or authority, this transit increases your chances of obtaining it.

- Recognizing Your Limits: You will learn to work within your capabilities, which can lead to a more balanced and less stressful life.

House 2

Saturn's transit through this sector of our birth chart tells us that it is time to crystallize our self-esteem, sense of worthiness and finances. It is common that at the beginning of this transit we experience setbacks or disappointments regarding our income, creating a feeling of instability and insecurity that we must work on.

While with Saturn transiting here we can be practically terrified of not making ends meet, this is not likely to happen if we work hard and strive to establish a new sense of financial stability. These can be 2 years where we begin new ways of making money, although to see results we will have to face all kinds of insecurities regarding our talents and ability to support ourselves.

This is a cycle to develop a more conservative outlook on money, making it an excellent period to save for a long-term goal. If we work on the weakest links in our self-esteem, this transit can lead to a much greater sense of security in our abilities and finances than before.

Tips for Saturn Transiting your 2nd House:

1. Financial Reassessment: This transit is a call to review your finances and adopt a more structured and responsible approach to money management. It's time to create a budget and stick to it.

2. Long-Term Investment: Consider investing in safe, long-term options. Saturn favors patience and foresight, so think about your financial future.

3. Cultivate Your Talents: Saturn in the 2nd house encourages you to work hard on developing and improving your skills. Those talents you hone now can become sources of stable income.

4. Minimalism: Take a minimalist approach to your possessions. This transit will teach you the value of the essential over the superfluous, helping you find satisfaction in what really matters.

5. Self-esteem and values: This transit challenges you to align your resources and efforts with your true values. Strengthen your self-esteem by recognizing your worth beyond your material possessions.

Positive Outcomes at the End of This Transit:

- Financial Stability: By taking responsible and disciplined steps, you can establish a solid foundation for your future financial security.

- Personal Growth: This transit offers you the opportunity to grow personally by evaluating what you truly value and aligning your life with those values.

- Recognition of Internal Resources: Saturn will teach you to recognize and appreciate your own resources, both material and internal, fostering a sense of self-worth and confidence.

- Skill Development: By focusing on developing your talents, you can find new ways to generate income or improve your job position.

- Simplifying Life: Adopting a more minimalist approach will not only free you from unnecessary burdens, but will also allow you to more fully enjoy the simple joys of life.

House 3

This transit can start with a mental state of worry and pessimism. This is because the 3rd house is related to our mental panorama, our ideas and what we communicate. Also the information we share in the small communications of everyday life.

So, the purpose of this transit is to look inward and strengthen our way of communicating and absorbing information. If we have been feeling like we are not smart enough or capable enough to learn something new, during this cycle we will have to confront that self-censorship mentality. This can be a time when we cut off communications that seem superfluous to us and immerse ourselves in learning about what truly represents us.

Our relationship with siblings can be subject to stress; we may feel that they are limiting us. While this may be true, we should also consider whether their behavior is a reflection of how we treat ourselves.

Tips for Saturn Transiting your 3rd House:

1. Cultivate Conscious Communication: Use this period to improve your way of communicating. Practice active listening and make sure your words truly reflect your thoughts and feelings.

2. Focused Study and Learning: Saturn asks you to delve deeper into areas of study or interests that you are passionate about. This is the ideal time for formal courses or self-learning on topics that contribute to your personal and professional growth.

3. Review Close Relationships: This is a good time to evaluate your relationships with siblings and neighbors. Work on strengthening those bonds or setting healthy boundaries where necessary.

4. Minimize Distractions: Saturn in the 3rd house encourages you to reduce distractions and mental noise. Limit your time on social media and focus on information that enriches you.

5. Practice Patience: Learn to be patient with your learning and communication process. Some lessons may take time to be absorbed and applied effectively.

Positive Outcomes at the End of This Transit:

- Improved Communication Skills: By the end of the transit, you may find that you express yourself more clearly and confidently, both in writing and speaking.

- Expansion of Knowledge: Your dedication to study and learning can result in a vast expansion of your knowledge, opening up new opportunities for your development.

- Stronger Relationships: By consciously working on your close relationships, you can enjoy deeper, more meaningful bonds with siblings and neighbors.

- Increased Focus and Concentration: The ability to concentrate on what really matters can increase significantly, allowing you to accomplish more in less time.

- Mental Resilience: This transit will teach you to be resilient in the face of mental and emotional challenges, strengthening your ability to handle stress and pressure.

House 4

Saturn's entry into the 4th house begins with a conjunction to the Imum Coeli (IC), the second angle after the ascendant. Any transit of Saturn to the angles will be an important event in life, in the sense that it helps us restructure the foundations of who we are, where we come from, how we relate to each other, and where we are going.

The IC represents our deepest roots on an emotional, genealogical and past level. Saturn's transit here implies the beginning of a two-year period in which we must work on our inner world, our sense of belonging to our roots, our relationship with our home and our family. This transit can bring about some kind of situation on a domestic level in which the way the family members relate to each other changes noticeably. For example: our father —recently widowed— begins to live in our home. Or we have our first child.

Either way, because this is such an internal house, it is common that we don't see any external results in our lives that reflect the hard work we are doing. This can be extremely frustrating at first, but if we think about the implicit lesson that this brings, it makes perfect sense: solidifying our identity on an emotional level, and obtaining a sense of security and support that does not depend on something external.

With this transit we can make great strides in our mental health and the way we live our emotional needs. To do this we will have to review - and to a certain extent cut off - our relationship with the past, spend time alone and restructure our domestic life. Because this is such an internal transit, moving is not usually the answer to what we are working on. In fact, with Saturn here, it is likely that instead of moving we will prefer to conserve energy and not go looking for the unknown.

Tips for Saturn Transiting your 4th House:

1. Explore Your Roots: Take time to understand your past and your family roots. This is a great time to research your family tree or reflect on the family traditions that have shaped you.

2. Strengthen Your Personal Space: Make your home a haven that reflects your true needs and sense of security. Consider rearranging or redecorating to make your space more welcoming and representative of who you are now.

3. Work on Your Emotional Health: Take advantage of this transit to focus on your emotional well-being. Therapy or meditation can be valuable tools to process repressed emotions or to improve your relationship with your family.

4. Accept Family Changes: Stay open to changes within your family dynamics that may arise during this time. Find ways to adapt and support your loved ones while keeping your own needs in mind.

5. Find Support Within: Develop a solid emotional foundation that is not dependent on external factors. This is the time to cultivate a sense of inner peace and security.

Positive Outcomes at the End of This Transit:

- Renewed Family Connection: This transit gives you the opportunity to heal old wounds and family resentments, allowing you to establish more authentic and open relationships with your loved ones.

- Emotional Openness: As you work on your emotional health and confront the past, you develop greater emotional openness, which facilitates more sincere communication with both yourself and others.

- Releasing Past Burdens: Saturn challenges you to review and finally let go of unresolved issues from your upbringing and past. This process frees you from emotional burdens that have held you back, paving the way for a lighter, brighter future.

- Internal Security: By digging deeper into your roots and better understanding your past, you build a foundation of internal security that does not depend on external factors, allowing you to face the future with confidence.

- A Home That Is a True Sanctuary: By restructuring your home environment and your relationship with your family, you create a home that truly serves as your personal sanctuary, a place where you can recharge and feel completely at peace.

House 5

When Saturn transits this house, we often feel a little ignored by our surroundings at first. We might also feel that our desire to have fun and our enthusiasm in general diminishes considerably.

This is the house of creative expression, how comfortable we are with our purpose and our talents, and how we use them to feel fulfilled.

So, the purpose of this transit is to ask ourselves that perhaps life is not just about being productive and functional and having our basic needs met. These are two years to go beyond that, and if we have creativity that we are wasting out of fear or insecurity, now is the time to let it out (note that creativity does not necessarily mean venturing into the arts). At the end of this transit, the goal is to have a solid vision of what makes us unique, and to love and appreciate ourselves so that we can share that spark with others —and not depend on flattery and/or applause to feel good about ourselves—.

Tips for Saturn Transiting your 5th House:

1. Foster Your Creativity: Take advantage of this transit to rediscover or reinvent your creative side. Seek out activities that allow you to express yourself authentically, whether through writing, painting, programming, or any other activity that resonates with you.

2. Redefine the Concept of Fun: Find new ways to enjoy and have fun that may be more introspective or meaningful. It may be the perfect time to develop a hobby you've always wanted to explore.

3. Connect with Your Passions: Reflect on what you are truly passionate about and how you can integrate it more into your life. This is a time to deeply connect with your true desires and how they align with your purpose.

4. Developing Authenticity: Work on feeling comfortable showing your true self, without needing to seek external approval. Authenticity is key during this transit.

5. Patience and Perseverance with Creative Projects: Projects started now may require more time and effort, but the satisfaction they will provide upon completion will be worth it. Be patient and stay focused.

Positive Outcomes at the End of This Transit:

- Creative Self-Discovery: By the end of the transit, you will likely have discovered or delved into a form of creative expression that is genuinely your own and rewarding.

- Greater Confidence in Your Uniqueness: You will learn to value yourself for your talents and what makes you unique, strengthening your self-esteem and confidence.

- More Authentic Relationships: By being true to yourself, you will attract people who value your true essence, improving the quality of your personal relationships.

- New Hobbies or Pastimes: Exploring new interests can open you up to enriching communities and experiences that you might not have otherwise discovered.

- Detachment from External Validation: You will achieve significant personal growth by freeing yourself from the need for external approval, finding satisfaction in your own validation and in the creative process itself.

House 6

With Saturn transiting here, we might feel like 24 hours a day are not enough. This is because the 6th house is associated with daily work, our routines, and our health. So, when we feel that time is scarce, we need to learn to be more organized and functional than before, and to make the most of every minute we have. This includes having a routine that keeps us healthy (getting regular medical checkups, exercising, having good sleep hygiene).

However, it is not uncommon for us to experience some health problems during this transit. Most of the time it is not a major problem, but one that can be solved by making the necessary adjustments in our lifestyle.

Tips for Saturn Transiting your 6th House:

1. Optimize Your Time: Make friends with agendas and to-do lists to better organize your day-to-day life. Prioritize activities and learn to say no to things that don't contribute to your goals.

2. Health First: Schedule regular medical checkups and pay attention to your body's signals. Integrate healthy habits into your daily routine, such as a balanced diet and regular exercise.

3. Work Efficiency: Look for ways to be more efficient at your work tasks. This may involve learning new skills, delegating, or streamlining processes.

4. Work-Life Balance: Set clear boundaries between work and your personal life to avoid burnout. Quality sleep is just as important as productivity.

5. Willpower and Discipline: Perseverance and discipline will be your best allies. Saturn will reward you for hard work and perseverance, although don't expect immediate results.

Positive Outcomes at the End of This Transit:

- Improved Health and Wellbeing: By adopting a healthier lifestyle, you will notice significant improvements in your health and energy levels.

- Increased Productivity: You will learn to manage your time and energy effectively, increasing your productivity without sacrificing your well-being.

- Development of Healthy Habits: Healthy habits acquired during this transit can become an integral part of your life, offering you long-term benefits.

- Job Satisfaction: By improving your efficiency at work and learning to balance your responsibilities, you can find greater satisfaction in what you do.

- Mental and Physical Strength: This transit prepares you to face challenges with greater resilience, both mentally and physically, equipping you with the tools necessary to manage stress more effectively.

House 7

Saturn's transit through this house begins with a conjunction to its beginning, the Descendant. As this is an angle —as is the Ascendant, Imum Coeli and Midheaven— it represents an important period in our lives in which we must give a new structure to the way we relate to each other; become aware of everything that is fragile and needs to be strengthened or left behind.

When Saturn transits conjunct the Descendant, it is common for us to make a significant commitment to someone else (a business deal, a marriage, etc.).

But unlike feeling like our long-awaited dream is finally coming true, this is a period of dealing with reality as it is—and that involves a lot of work and shattering of fantasies.

As Saturn moves through our 7th house, we will be driven to test our meaningful relationships with others. Remember that transits of this planet require us to make a sustained effort over time in order to see results, so we may feel that during the two years of this transit we worked very hard to make our relationships work.

Thus, with respect to significant relationships, we will reap results in exact proportion to the effort we have invested, so if during this transit we do not take responsibility for having more balanced, solid and committed relationships, they are likely to break up (hence the reputation this transit has for causing divorces - the truth of the matter is that it only shows us the reality that we ourselves have created with our previous actions).

If we commit to taking responsibility and not projecting the cause of our problems onto others, we can end up with solid relationships at the end of this transit that resonate with this newfound maturity we have gained. For people who are single and have done the necessary work, this could mean starting a new relationship.

Tips for Saturn Passing through your 7th House:

1. Commitment and Realism: Approach your relationships with a realistic commitment. Recognize that the success of a relationship depends on both your efforts and those of your partner.

2. Teamwork: Encourage teamwork in your relationships. This transit encourages you to build a solid foundation of cooperation and mutual understanding.

3. Clear Communication: Open and honest communication is key. Address problems constructively and actively listen to your partner or business partners.

4. Review Expectations: Examine and adjust your expectations about relationships. Not all romantic dreams are achievable; focus on what is truly important.

5. Self-responsibility: Recognize your role in the dynamics of your relationships. Avoid blaming others for difficulties and work on your personal growth.

Positive Outcomes at the End of This Transit:

- Stronger Relationships: Relationships that survive and grow stronger during this transit are based on solid foundations of mutual respect and teamwork.

- Relational Maturity: You will gain a more mature understanding of what it means to be in a committed, balanced, and realistic relationship.

- Clarity in Relationships: This transit helps you see your relationships as they are, allowing you to make informed decisions about who you want to be with.

- New Beginnings: For those who have been alone and have done the necessary work, this transit can mark the beginning of a meaningful and mature relationship.

- Emotional Independence: You will learn not to depend completely on relationships for your happiness and satisfaction, cultivating greater emotional independence.

House 8

Saturn's transit through this house is associated with becoming aware of things that we don't usually think about regularly, for example remembering that our life on this earth has an end; or accepting that we have a compulsive side that needs to be in control. It is possible that during this transit we will have to work hard to be able to open ourselves emotionally to other people (mainly our partner). This could include therapy.

It is common during this period of our lives to have frustrations regarding our emotional vulnerability, sexuality, relationship with death and unhealthy attachments. Of course, these frustrations serve the purpose of making visible what we need to resolve and mature.

Tips for Saturn Transiting your 8th House:

1. Face Reality: This is a time to face those realities of life that we often prefer to ignore, such as death and our own compulsions or dependencies. Accepting these truths can be liberating.

2. Vulnerability Work: Encourage yourself to open up emotionally, even if it takes effort. Seeking professional help, such as therapy, can be especially beneficial for working on your vulnerabilities and codependencies.

3. Set Healthy Boundaries: The 8th house deals with issues of control and power. Learn to set healthy boundaries in your relationships to avoid loss of power or codependency situations.

4. Exploring Sexuality: Reflect on your sexuality and relationship with pleasure. Saturn invites you to mature and understand these areas of your life in a deeper and more responsible way.

5. Managing Shared Resources: Focus on managing shared resources, such as inheritances, debts, or joint investments, in a mature and responsible manner. This transit teaches you the importance of transparency and honesty in these areas.

Positive Outcomes at the End of This Transit:

- Greater Emotional Openness: At the end of the transit, you may find yourself more open and emotionally connected with others, having worked on your fears and vulnerabilities.

- Deeper Relationships: Relationships, especially intimate ones, can be significantly strengthened as you work on honesty and mutual acceptance.

- Understanding Death and Transformation: This transit can teach you to see death and transformation not as endings, but as natural and necessary parts of the cycle of life.

- Healing from Dependencies and Compulsions: Confronting your dependencies or compulsive behaviors can lead to greater freedom and control over your life.

- Efficient Management of Shared Resources: You will learn to manage shared resources more effectively, which can result in greater financial and emotional stability.

House 9

This transit implies a crisis of faith (not necessarily religious). Beliefs and ideals that we previously considered immovable no longer make sense, so this period could imply a search, either internally or externally. It is likely that our optimism will be greatly diminished at the beginning of this transit, or that we will become aware that it is time to commit to a line of study (do a master's degree, study what we have always wanted even though it requires an effort and facing several fears).

If, on the other hand, we are studying something that does not resonate with our principles, this is usually a transit that helps us abandon that path and invest the necessary energy in something that does strengthen our passion for life and optimism.

At the end of this transit, if we have done the necessary work, we will have a much more solid philosophy of life, ideals and vision; and a strengthened and much more mature sense of optimism and faith.

Tips for Saturn Transiting your 9th House:

1. Reassessment of Beliefs: Use this time to reflect deeply on your beliefs and ideals. What is truly important to you? This is a time to let go of what no longer serves you and commit to what truly resonates with your being.

2. Commitment to Learning: If you have been putting off your education or want to delve deeper into a field of study, now is the time to take action. Consider this transit an opportunity to make a serious commitment to learning.

3. Travel with Purpose: If circumstances permit, the travel you take during this time could have a profound impact on your understanding of the world and your beliefs. Choose destinations that challenge you and expand your perspective.

4. Spiritual Exploration: Engage in spiritual or philosophical practices that help you build a stronger foundation for your faith and worldview.

5. Patience and Perseverance: Saturn teaches you that growth and deep understanding take time. Remain patient and persevere in your quest for knowledge and wisdom.

Positive Outcomes at the End of This Transit:

- A Strengthened Philosophy of Life: You will emerge from this transit with a stronger philosophy of life and a system of beliefs that are more aligned with your true self.

- Spiritual and Intellectual Growth: Deepening your studies or spiritual practices will lead you to remarkable intellectual and spiritual growth.

- Realistic Optimism: You will learn to balance optimism with reality, resulting in a strengthened faith that is both mature and resilient.

- Enriching Cultural Connections: Cross-cultural travel or study during this time can enrich your life in unexpected ways, offering you new perspectives and connections.

- Clarity of Purpose: By the end of the transit, you will have a clearer understanding of your direction in life, your long-term goals, and how to achieve them.

House 10

Saturn's transit through this angular house is usually felt quite strongly once it makes a conjunction to its beginning, the Midheaven.

The 10th house is related to our status, professional ambitions, social role and reputation. The transiting conjunction of Saturn to the Midheaven has the function of giving us a reality check regarding our ambitions, so if we have been trying to advance in an unstructured and/or unserious way, this could be a time when we experience a drop in our reputation or directly in our job.

The 10th house is a very visible house, so everything that happens to us (for better or worse) during this transit is likely to be widely known by those around us. Thus, if in previous years we have made an effort to develop an upright behavior, it is possible that this transit means a promotion at a professional level, an improvement in our status or recognition.

In any case, it is important that if we find ourselves in situations of greater responsibility and leadership during this transition, we learn not to hold back, to lose our fear of success and even to be a role model for other people.

Without a doubt, the transit of Saturn through the 10th house can bring us the disappointment of knowing that the promotion at work, higher income level, person we have married, etc. does not guarantee us that internal dignity and poise (or happiness either) that we must have to successfully navigate the affairs of the 10th house and be able to guide others.

By the end of this 2-year cycle, we will hopefully have learned to be clear about where we stand in relation to our social role and reputation, and that our ambitions are related to our sense of internal authority rather than waiting for authority to come to us from something external.

Tips for Saturn Transiting your 10th House:

1. Career Self-Assessment: Take a serious look at your career and ambitions. Are you on the right path toward your long-term goals? Saturn invites you to align your ambitions with your true values ​​and capabilities.

2. Build Your Reputation: This is the time to work hard and prove your worth. Take responsibility with integrity and professionalism to build a solid reputation in your field.

3. Take Leadership: If leadership opportunities present themselves, take them seriously. This transit can be a test of your ability to lead and guide others with wisdom and responsibility.

4. Patience and Persistence: Understand that career advancement is a slow process. Stay patient and persist in your efforts, even when the results are not immediate.

5. Reassess Your Definition of Success: Consider what success means to you and how this aligns with your personal happiness and satisfaction. Saturn challenges you to find inner dignity and authority beyond external recognition.

Positive Outcomes at the End of This Transit:

- Strengthening your Professional Role: You will end this transit with a clearer and more solid understanding of your position and role in the professional field.

- Recognition and Advancement: Serious and continued efforts can result in significant advancements in your career, including promotions, recognition, or the opportunity to lead important projects.

- Alignment with Authentic Values: You will learn to value success and reputation not only for external recognition, but as an expression of your true authority and internal values.

- Leadership Development: The ability to guide others will be strengthened, allowing you to be a more effective and respected leader.

- Resilience and Maturity: You will emerge from this transit with greater resilience in the face of professional challenges and a maturity that will prepare you to face future challenges with dignity and confidence.

House 11

Saturn's transit through this house pushes us to restructure our long-term goals, that is, where we are going in life. This inevitably affects our friendships and associations, since we tend to relate to people who aim towards goals similar to ours.

Thus, with Saturn transiting here, it is possible that friendships that we consider to be superficial or unsatisfactory may end. The friendships that remain will require a more committed and mature attitude from us, in tune with the teachings of this planet. If we integrate these lessons, during these two years we could forge relationships with solid foundations, and that will project themselves into the long term.

Tips for Saturn Transiting your 11th House:

1. Reassess Friendships: Use this time to evaluate the quality of your relationships and friendships. Do they support your long-term goals? Saturn invites you to cultivate more meaningful and lasting relationships.

2. Setting Long-Term Goals: This is an excellent period to clarify and restructure your future objectives. Make sure your goals are aligned with your true desires and values.

3. Commitment to Communities: Get more deeply involved in groups or communities that reflect your authentic interests and values. It may be time to take on a more active or leadership role.

4. Quality over Quantity: Prioritize quality of connections over quantity. Saturn teaches you the value of deep, lasting friendships rather than a broad, superficial social network.

5. Openness to New Relationships: Be open to forming new relationships with individuals or groups that inspire you to grow. These connections can be instrumental in clarifying what you want your future achievements to be.

Positive Outcomes at the End of This Transit:

- Strong and Lasting Friendships: If you do the necessary work, you will end this transit with deeper and more meaningful relationships, based on mutual respect and support for your long-term goals.

- Clarity in Life Goals: You will have a clearer understanding of where you want to direct your life, with well-defined goals aligned with your purpose.

- Integration into Meaningful Communities: You will be able to be part of communities or groups that provide you with a sense of belonging and support in your ambitions.

- Maturity in Social Relationships: You will learn the value of reciprocity and commitment in your interactions, taking your connections to a more mature level.

- Renewed Direction and Purpose: This transit leaves you with a renewed sense of direction and purpose, losing your fear of the future because you have taken responsibility.

House 12

This is a transition that is experienced mainly on an internal level, but that does not mean it will be any less important. Questions such as what is the meaning of life, why suffering exists, what is truly transcendent for us and/or what has caused us to limit ourselves are frequent during this transition.

As this is the last house of the birth chart, this transit marks the end of a cycle in which we must delve into our unhealed emotional wounds, and into our attitudes of self-limitation and/or self-sabotage. In general, we do not initiate many things under this transit, but rather direct our energy toward finishing and repairing.

Tips for Saturn Transiting your 12th House:

1. Deep Introspection: Take time for personal reflection and meditation. This transit invites you to explore your deepest, most hidden inner dimensions.

2. Healing Past Wounds: Take advantage of this period to work on healing emotional wounds and overcoming self-imposed limitations. Consider therapy or spiritual practices as healing tools.

3. Review Self-Sabotaging Attitudes: Identify and work on changing patterns of behavior that have limited you. This is a time to get rid of habits that do not serve you.

4. Preparing for a New Cycle: As Saturn approaches your Ascendant, prepare to begin a new life cycle. Reflect on what you want to take with you and what you need to leave behind.

5. Encounter with Solitude: Do not fear isolation or loneliness during this transit. Use them as an opportunity to connect with yourself and your true needs and desires.

Positive Outcomes at the End of This Transit:

- Release of Past Burdens: You will emerge from this transit feeling lighter, having released emotional burdens and destructive patterns.

- Greater Clarity and Understanding of Yourself: You will gain a deeper understanding of yourself, your hidden motivations and your true needs.

- Spiritual Strengthening: You will be able to experience significant spiritual growth, finding meaning and purpose in life beyond material limitations.

- Ready for a New Beginning: As this transit ends, you will be in a stronger position to begin a new chapter in your life with clarity, purpose, and renewed self-confidence.

- Improved Personal Relationships: By freeing yourself from self-sabotage patterns and emotional wounds, you will be better equipped to form healthier and more meaningful relationships.

This transit ends with the conjunction of Saturn to our Ascendant, which puts the focus on our individuality and how we go about life.
