SATURN IN PISCES
March 7, 2023 to May 24, 2025
August 31, 2025 to February 13, 2026
Saturn’s move into Pisces on March 7th lights up a whole new sector of your solar horoscope. This is the beginning of a three year transit of Saturn through Pisces. This article can be read alongside Saturn In Pisces: Making The Unreal Real which looks at the symbolism of the planet in authority in the star sign of make-believe and what this might mean.
As it takes Saturn approximately 29/30 years to circuit the zodiac, this is a major event. The last time Saturn was in Pisces was from May 1993 to April 1996. It may help to look back to that period in your life to get a better sense of what Saturn in Pisces may mean for you.
Saturn’s the planet of responsibility, rules and regulations, boundaries and structure. It can aid self-discipline, commitment and planning ahead. Yet, Saturn’s one of the planets linked to endings and there can be a theme of limitation or hardship wherever Saturn falls. Here’s where Saturn will be making its mark in your horoscope – read both your Sun sign and your Ascendant sign to get the full lowdown.
STAR SIGNS
PISCES: 1st house – personal goals and aims, image and profile
Pisces is your star sign and to have Saturn here is hugely significant. What are you ready to commit to? Alternatively, what do you want to bring an end? Saturn is the planet of responsibility, also hard work and effort. This could help you flex your levels of self-discipline, when you’re ready to commit whole-heartedly to a project or goal. You might be willing to step into a position of leadership. Yet, be wary of taking on too much or working overly hard. Keep close tabs on your stress levels, your attitude and prioritise well-being. Don’t allow the gloomy side of Saturn to take hold.
ARIES: 12th house – retreat, spirituality, caring for self and others
Pisces is the most hidden sector of your horoscope. Therefore, think about what you’re letting go of and where you’re ready to lose yourself, in a good way. Saturn’s move into Pisces turns your attention inwards. This is about your inner life, retreat and reflection, quiet times and solitude. You may be pulled back towards the past or be more aware of the cycle of karma as the wheel of fortune turns. This is a key period of preparation for you, whether you’re studying, researching or recharging your batteries. Keep your gaze firmly focused on your future plans.
TAURUS: 11th house – friends and groups, society, your hopes and wishes
Saturn’s move into Pisces could unlock a block or obstacle that’s been holding you back, perhaps in your career or vocation. You may have a clearer sense of where you’re heading and why. You could step up to take on a new role and what happens this month is the catalyst or trigger. Community, politics, environmental and humanitarian concerns may become more significant for you moving forwards. Pisces rules your friendships and group activities. Will you be a rock for someone close in your life? Or, will one friendship group come to an end?
GEMINI: 10th house – career and vocation, status and reputation
Pisces is your career and vocation sector, it signifies your future path. Therefore, you may be ready to step into a new role or position of responsibility. Alternatively, you may be considering retirement or your current job or role is coming to an end. Both are possible as Saturn represents authority and commitment, also endings. Sometimes, Saturn in your career sector indicates a powerful boss or authority figure in your life. A good question to ask is where it would be most meaningful and worthwhile to channel your time and energy over the next two to three years.
CANCER: 9th house – travel and study, beliefs and philosophy
Saturn moves into Pisces and the sector of your horoscope which rules travel and study, the bigger picture in life. You may be considering emigration or a move abroad. Or, perhaps you want to take a sabbatical or gain new qualifications. This could coincide with a change of plan or the realisation that one dream may not happen. Remember that Saturn rules endings as well as commitment. Therefore, perhaps you commit to a two or three year course of study or you recognise what’s not working out. Either way, it’s a good time to make key decisions.
LEO: 8th house – joint finances, all things taboo and hidden, the metaphysical realm
Saturn’s move into Pisces may teach you a lot about money and the link between money and energy. You may get involved in fundraising or charity work. Or, you take responsibility for your finances in a new way and aim to build for a secure future. Saturn prefers saving to spending and may encourage you to cut expenses and live more modestly. Alternatively, you could be stepping into a role where you’re in charge of funding or finances. This transit of Saturn through Pisces is tapping you into the metaphysical realm and discovering the riches in life that lie beyond money and material possessions.
VIRGO: 7th house – relationships and contracts
Saturn rules endings and commitment and will be moving into your relationship sector. This could go either way, depending on your personal situation. A joint venture or business partnership could come to an end. Alternatively, a personal relationship reaches a peak point and you have to decide whether you’re in or out. There’s often a ‘commit or quit’ theme with Saturn. There may be extra responsibilities around your partnerships moving forward, also the possibility of finalising a marriage or contract. Make some strategic partnership moves and consider your long-term future.
LIBRA: 6th house – work and routine, lifestyle and health
Pisces is your work and health sector and Saturn represents both endings and commitment. Therefore, a job or contract could end. Or, perhaps you land a steady job that you’re going to be in for the next couple of years. Saturn’s a responsible influence. You may decide to become a volunteer and Pisces rules employees, lodgers and pets in your horoscope, more food for thought. Regarding your health and lifestyle, now’s the time to flex your self-discipline and put new habits in place. It’s said that habits take 66 days to bed in, so start something new and make it part of your daily routine.
SCORPIO: 5th house – creativity, birth and children, love affairs, entertainment
Pisces rules romance in your horoscope and all the good things in life. On the one hand, you might find it easier to commit to a hobby or leisure activity. You may be ready to start a family, spend more time with your kids or turn a romance into a steady relationship. Wherever you find Saturn, you can be more focused as your levels of self-discipline are heightened. Yet, Saturn can represent an obstacle in your life and is one of the planets linked to endings. Therefore, it could be make-or-break time for an affair. Or, perhaps you have to make a tough decision regarding a child. Take responsibility for the ones you love.
SAGITTARIUS: 4th house – home and family, your past and where you come from
Pisces is the star sign at the base of your horoscope ruling your home and family, your past and where you come from. This may be a time when you’re thinking about putting down roots or settling somewhere. This could come as something of a shock to you as your star sign Sagittarius favours freedom. Alternatively, there could be a significant ending in your life, perhaps a break with the past. Or, you’re caught up with your parents or ancestry. You could be returning to the past in a way you hadn’t envisaged. Saturn’s linked to history, also duty & responsibility.
CAPRICORN: 3rd house – communication, siblings and your local neighbourhood
Saturn is your ruling planet and hugely significant when it changes star sign. Saturn’s moving into your communication sector. As Saturn rules commitment and discipline, you might be considering a course of study over the next few years or want to train as a teacher and pass on your wisdom. It’s a strong transit for writing, broadcasting or becoming a voice of authority. You may take on a significant role within your community or neighbourhood and Pisces rules siblings and close relatives. However, as Saturn is the planet of endings, you could decide to take a step back from a leadership position.
AQUARIUS: 2nd house – money and possessions, self-value and worth
Saturn is your traditional ruling planet and it’s a significant shift when Saturn changes star sign. Saturn moves into Pisces and your personal money sector. Therefore, it’s time to decide what you’re ready to commit to and where you’re ready to move on. These are Saturn’s themes, planning financial long-term goals, also blocking any drains on your money. Values and self-worth are under the cosmic spotlight. Ideally, it’s a time to ensure you value yourself highly so you’re paid what you deserve. At the same time, shift your financial attitude to become more of a saver than a spender.
