Deliberate Offering Saturn Retrograde July 13th – Nov 27th
At nearly 8° of Pisces, Saturn’s retrograde session will last for the next 4.5 months. Saturn will behave as if it were in Aquarius while occupying Pisces, giving significant results from these two places through the end of November. Pay attention to these two houses in your chart, it will be like you have two active Saturns. A time to make your life a living prayer in action.
Aquarius—Saturn’s office, where he likes to get down to business, and the natural 12th house of Pisces is where the lord of karma wants to clear the slate. His retrogression in Pisces: reevaluating karmic ties, hidden fears, and emotional entanglements, to see beyond illusion and break entanglements. What debts we owe before we can pass, this includes practical ones, such as financial expenses.
Saturn sits at the center of all the water signs, the heart of the matter, our inner oceans of introspection, humility, duty, and devotion. The strength he brings is to look deeply at what we bond to and what we are bound by.
At the start of his retrograde, Saturn falls in the Vishnu portion of the Navamsha, trying to bring balance, stabilisation, and hold things together, a mix of responsibility and duty thrown in with a few tricky curveballs. By the fall, he will be in the area of the Navamsha governed by Brahma (creation and scandals) to be revealed.
The house his retrogression and the nakshatras it activates in your chart are the areas of life that become a major focus, a need to reorient and move faster in decision-making and action. This period may feel like you are running a marathon. The lord of time, in his retrograde motion, gives the “get your **** together” activation.
A key takeaway is to act deliberately, to understand your actions, and be aware of what you are getting into, what you are bonded too and where you are bound. Look and act with HONESTY – CLARITY – HUMILITY. Saturn in Pisces does not permit escape or skipping steps. This is a blessing of his transit.
For those in Shani dasha, have Shani nakshatras (Pushya, Anuradha, Uttara Bhadrapada), retrograde Saturn in their natal chart, planets between 7°–1°. Will experience it the this transit the most.
Shani continues his aspect on the signs of Aries, Virgo, and Scorpio, with a little more gravity over the next few months. Check if you have planets there, especially the Moon. Saturn will seek out maturity from you in these areas.
Remedies for Shani include lighting a diya lamp (ghee or sesame oil) and chanting Shani Gayatri, or Om Sham Shanaishcharaya Namah. Serving the underprivileged, worshipping Lord Hanuman, offering donations, and feeding the crows. Gemstones are not in the shastra.
At the start and end of his retrograde cycle, we may feel more tired and more tense. So listen deeply, give respect to Lord Shani, and welcome his lesson.
