From July 13 to November 28, Saturn is retrograde — moving through Aries and Pisces — and this isn’t light energy. It’s deep, karmic, and absolutely necessary.
This isn’t the kind of retrograde that causes a few tech glitches. This is the retrograde that shows you what you’ve outgrown, what needs boundaries, and where you’re still trying to skip the soul work.

🌊 Saturn in Pisces (Currently): Emotional Responsibility
In Pisces, Saturn challenges you to take accountability for:
Your spiritual discipline
Your boundaries around emotional energy
Your avoidance patterns (do you escape through fantasy, people-pleasing, or over-giving?)
Saturn here is like a spiritual drill sergeant. You’re not allowed to just vibe through your healing anymore — you’re being asked to show up, consistently, for your soul work.
🔥 Saturn in Aries (Later in the Retrograde): Identity and Independence
As Saturn moves back into Aries, the focus shifts to:
Your identity and how you assert it
Your willpower, discipline, and follow-through
Lessons around anger, action, and courage
This portion of the retrograde may feel like a reality check around who you thought you’d be by now… and who you’re actually becoming.
⚖️ What Saturn Retrograde Brings Up
🧱 Accountability: Where are you blaming others instead of taking responsibility?
⏳ Patience: Saturn moves slowly for a reason. You’re building foundations, not quick fixes.
🪨 Boundaries: Are you being too rigid — or too passive? Saturn wants balance.
🧘♀️ Soul Work: This is the time to revisit your healing habits, spiritual structure, or energetic maintenance.
💡 Saturn Asks You To…
Review your long-term plans
Create boundaries that honor your energy, not just protect it
Recommit to your inner work, especially the boring parts
Be brutally honest with yourself: Am I truly showing up for my own growth?
🪞Journal Prompts
Where am I still expecting results without doing the work?
What boundaries am I afraid to set — and why?
What structure or spiritual habit do I need to return to?
What lesson keeps repeating itself in my life?
🛠️ Saturn = Work Before Reward
Saturn doesn’t give handouts. It gives you lessons — then the reward.
During this retrograde, things might feel like they’re moving slowly or falling apart. But Saturn isn’t destroying you — it’s refining you. Helping you build something real, stable, and lasting.
This is where your soul matures.
🧘♀️ Final Thoughts
Saturn Retrograde is a sacred audit. It’s not glamorous — but it is necessary.
This is the season to stop making excuses, stop ghosting your goals, and stop abandoning yourself when things get hard.
You are being forged into something stronger.
