\""Saturn<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Saturn was retrograde in Capricorn on July 1, 2020 through September 28, 2020 and is now direct in Capricorn until it shifts into Aquarius on December 16, 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A planetary retrograde indicates a time for reflection while a planet stationing direct indicates a time to take action again. What did you reevaluate during this past Saturn retrograde? Remember, Saturn is an outer planet meaning, unlike the personal planets, it has a major effect on society and structures. As a society, we\u2019ve been reevaluating our leaders, laws, and the general ways in which the collective functions. Some of us have realized it isn\u2019t \u201cliberty and justice for all\u201d; so now what?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saturn and Time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sadly, I don’t know what to do right now. I’m not an expert. I’m just a regular old citizen with empathy and deep thinking skills. So I’m going to use those skills to dissect one of the deepest topics possible, the topic of time and how that relates to the planet Saturn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As much as Saturn rules structure and boundaries, Saturn is also the ruler of time. We all know, we could die tomorrow, in 7 days, or in 5 minutes. We get to choose what we do with the time we have. With Saturn retrograde in Capricorn and a global pandemic, many of us have reevaluated what we want to do with our limited time. Together as a society, we see that the world is hurting, this pandemic is killing us and the ones we love, and that our leaders don’t really care about us. When we can’t control our surroundings, we need to look at what we can do individually with our time. Saturn asks us – what is the end goal? Is life just a series of goals that constantly evolve and carry us from day to day? Or is there one main thing we can focus our time on? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saturn Direct in Capricorn<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you’ve been challenging the system lately, don\u2019t stop. Always question the corruption you see in your day to day life, but also remember that the end goal for massive societal changes will often shift and adapt over time. Capricorn’s planetary ruler is Saturn, meaning this zodiac sign and planet share a lot in common. Unfortunately, one thing they share is strict structure and a general disinterest in adapting and changing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Personally, with Saturn direct in Capricorn (in my first house), I feel like I’m struggling to pick one cause to fight for. I see chaos all around, but realistically I can’t fix everything. Saturn direct in Capricorn shows that these societal systems were built TOUGH and it takes patience, a narrow approach, and individual responsibility to effect change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, we can\u2019t fix the whole political system overnight. We can\u2019t clean up the streets, get everyone food and shelter, and make the fighting go away. It takes time. Sometimes all we can do is pick one or two causes that mean something to us, and do the best we can to support them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
