Saturn, the grim reaper, rules responsibilities, restrictions and
limitations you are apt to encounter, and the lessons you must
learn in life. He does not deny or diminish imagination,
inspiration, spirituality, or good fortune, but he does demand that
these things be given structure and meaning.
The karmic lessons we have come to experience and overcome in
this lifetime are expressed by Saturn. He spends around two and a
half years in each sign, taking about twenty-nine years on his
journey through all the signs. Each twenty-nine years naturally
presents us with the challenge to rise to new levels of awareness,
or face the consequences of having failed to gain the wisdom
required so to do.
