THE SECOND SATURN RETURN IN ASTROLOGY

The second Saturn return occurs between the ages of 57-60 years of age.  It is somewhat similar to the first return period experienced at approximately 28-30 to years of age.  Most of our readers will recall a rather tumultuous period during that time of your life.  This time around, you will have matured and if you find that there are changes to make, it is suggested that you take the time needed to make some adjustments to your life.  Saturn is the instigator of change and although some of these changes may be difficult in their nature, you may want to review what is no longer working for you in your life.  Holding on to outdated people, characteristics, ways of life just tends to hinder our progress.  Although you are able to refuse the suggestions offered by Saturn at this time, you will still review your life and later on these required changes may take on a much more difficult character.  The changes will eventually be made under far more stressful conditions.

You may feel confused.  You might even feel lost and depression may set in during this time frame, but making the required changes will lead you towards self-healing from the inside out.  In turn, these changes will provide you with a much more solid foundation.   You may find that there is a lot of reviewing going on, particularly concentrated on the past 29 years or so.  This time period suggests that you will reap the rewards for your hard work and perseverance with respect to your family responsibilities and career performance.  If you have been working towards positive ends then this period will provide you with the stabilizing and grounding required as you enter into retirement.  If you have neglected your responsibilities, as Saturn is our disciplinarian and teaches us about responsibility, you may be faced with a crisis that you will have to deal with.

Do not run from your responsibilities, as duty calls and regardless of challenges that may present themselves to you, you will need to move forward and meet these hurtles and conquer them.  This is a wakeup call and Saturn delivers to you what you have earned.  Saturn will also suggest changes that solidify your future.  If changes need to be made, you should make them for the foundation is being laid for your next 29 years.

There is an ending of old ways and the rebirth of new conditions.  Although most transitions are difficult periods, you are preparing for your future and uncovering your goals in life.  Many, once completing this Saturn return period, will walk down a different path than before its occurrence.  Some discover an inner yearning for spiritual change and move in directions that facilitate such transformations. 

Look to the location of your Saturn in your Natal chart and also the house ruled by Capricorn to uncover the area of life undergoing transformation.

This is usually a trying period, but the outcome is favourable even if it takes a couple of years to materialize.  When this Saturn Return cycle has completed its course, you will be far more sure-footed than you were beforehand.  You will have a much clearer goal and the route way will be understood, as you put one foot in front of the other and begin your new cycle of life.
