Saturn goes direct!
Amen! We can’t help but say it. Saturn, the planet of challenges, discipline and restriction, has been retrograde (backward) since January 1st—and it’s been a real ass-kicker. Saturn is in Virgo, the zodiac’s helper and planner. If you’ve been struggling to stick to a routine, get a project off the ground or to keep the faith, chalk it up to Saturn retrograde. Fortunately, that cycle ended May 16th.
We call Saturn the zodaic’s “personal trainer” planet. It throws you challenges, which are designed to make you grow and mature. You may resist and complain at first—after all, your muscles are weak, and you probably lack discipline in this area. Once you surrender and do the work, the rewards are amazing (and usually permanent).With Saturn retrograde, you had to work twice as hard to get half the results.
Saturn is in Virgo until October 29—and now, in direct (forward) motion. Here’s where it will affect your sign. Whatever this area is, you’ll only succeed through good old-fashioned hard work, or by making disciplined effort. Step up to the plate!
