Saturn Transiting Your Sun or Natal Saturn

Saturn transiting Libra 2009-2012 was a very emotionally & mentally challenging time for me. Research led me to realize that Saturn's return to our natal Saturn sign is a pretty big deal. Crap.. (I'm natal Saturn Sagittarius)
Thoughts? Especially from people who've had recent Saturn returns to your Sun OR Saturn sign.
Life events bother me always.
So I have no special memories of my Saturn return.
At least nothing worse than any other Saturn transits.
well, I found and lost my best match in love throughout the years of Saturn return.
Maybe that?
But right at the 17?? for conjunction there's no bad special memory which haunts me.
At the same time in those years the chinese horoscope was on my side. Sheep and Monkey are often good to me. I lost my love at the year of Rooster which happened while last 7 degrees of Saturn return. It was very painful for months. Until year of Dog saved my life.
I've still got a few more years to go, since my Saturn is in Aries
Nobody wants to talk Saturn butter with me?
saturn in Sagittarius time.
they said it's time to get REAL.
Work hard, less dream time bullshit or something like that.

I'm a Cap (Saturn is my ruling planet) with a Saturn in Sag in House VIII.
No idea if that is a good thing or a bad thing.
I like that this year is supposed to bring me some sudden financial improvements but other than that it looks pretty boring.

I have to deal transit Saturn Scorpio since it hit my sun (& possible jupiter leo or saturn aqua) that I even went to psychiatrist.


I started seeing a talk therapist as well during Saturn in Libra (my Sun,) was very successful in dealing with some old mental baggage.

Are you basing this on it transiting your Sun? Because Saturn return to your natal Saturn affects differently.. That's what I'd like to understand more about.

I have had a difficult time since Saturn entered Libra in 2009. Life has been extremely difficult for libras since then. Apparently there are two eclipse this year that is going to affect Libras and we also have to deal with the pluto/Uranus issues. I don't know why this is happening to us Libras. I honestly don't know when things will get better.


no not all libras.
maybe it's just the INDIVIDUAL.

because in real life, our Pisces uncle is married to a double Libra woman who is ambitious and kind, and they have a very good marriage. They are having their anniversary soon.
and then there's my sister who is married to one and they have a harmonious marriage.
the ones i know in real life don't seem to have a hard time.
Maybe it's just in your area, or the ones who know astrology. It's weird. Maybe by knowing astrology so much,
the IDEALISM makes it too impossible and too hard.
Plus, you get alot of people who are turned off by the description of libra, which is, what i read from naysayers who hate astrology that astrology is cousin to racism.
There is some truth to it.
but if you dont let other people's voices and negativity get you down, you shall be allright.
You have to be STRONG.
the exalted signs usually don't have this problem even knowing astrology. because they are gifted with the power of exaltations and dignified, but with libra, being exalted in Saturn, the worry will KILL you if you don't just let it go. and let things flow, and just don't allow the negativity to kill you.
oh and plus, Always be a good person. Good morals and strength will find you.

Don't answer this TigerCap, clearly you don't mean Sun, lol. I wasnt paying attention to your name. My silly..
My first saturn return is coming to an end sometime in half a year or so.
Well you don't wanna listen to how difficult it was. Basically the result is that I feel I've become an adult. My view of the world has changed and my life direction has changed by 180degrees. The path I had been following before vanished and I decided to choose something different and started from the scratch. I can say I feel happy and at peace now.
Yes, Saturn transiting my Scorpio sun was a very challenging time for me as well. I did notice a marked difference when Saturn entered into Scorpio about 4 months into 2012. It was life changing and very unstable.
Saturn return is when old man Saturn knocks on your door, barges in if you don't open it, and starts questioning you to see if you are where you're supposed to be. You had a purpose before you started this life. Your soul wanted you to do something here, and Saturn will want you to pay your dues. It isn't uncommon for people to go through major life transformations during this period, from job changes to marriage and children. Many have referenced the "mid-life crisis" with this transit. Although it isn't all bad, as Saturn can also give you the clarity to work harder. Recently, a coworker of mine said: "After you hit 30, your life goes on fast-forward. Before then, you think you have all the time in the world."
A lot of people have said they feel fear around this time. Maybe even a sense of impending doom. The truth is, you may feel it or you may not depending on your planets and how sensitive they are to Saturn's transit. Some have noted that Taurus or Libra ascendants may not fare as harshly, but who knows. I have my Saturn in Sagg as well, and with the occasional bumps and scrapes, I have felt happier than I was for a long time since the start of 2015. Scorp Saturn transit was a rough one for me.
I think the most important thing to note about your Saturn is the house it's sitting in. That will be what your life lesson revolves around. Most important to look at are the planets with harsh placements to Saturn- Notably squares.
