Saturn Return in Pisces in each house 2023-2026

Saturn Return in Pisces in each house 2023-2026

(Sat in Pis dates 1935-1937; 1964-1967; 1994-1996; 2023-2026)

for those who have Saturn in Pisces in their natal chart, their Saturn Return is in progress or upcoming.

Saturn entered Pisces on March 7, 2023, since that time, we have been dealing with many feelings of the collective unconscious brought about by hardness, trying to teach us something, but everything is so difficult to be seen in a practical way, which ends up turning into pain, rather than quick learning and practicality.

This is because Pisces is not a sign of practical life, it is sign of the unconscious, of contact, of feeling; that is why, on Saturn, we have difficulties in understanding what needs to be done in order for us to evolve, to mature.

There are many lessons... but the focus of this post is not to talk about collective issues, but the individual issues that the natives of Saturn in Pisces are going through in their SATURN RETURN. at another time I will speak of the impacts on other beings, who do not have Saturn in Pisces in the natal chart, but have Pisces on planets/asteroids, or at least on the cusp of some house, if it is not intercepted.

let's go?

Saturn Return

marks a significant moment in people's lives, it's the moment when Saturn's energy, in an archetypal way, is brought to our life with great intensity, so that we REMEMBER. While in other years you have been experiencing other Saturns, in other signs, here, you come home.

And it's the moment when you are led to reflect on what you did during those 23-24 years, what happened, if something has changed; if you matured, if you learned something about your difficulties, that is, about what you already had to deal with inside.

Saturn is the planet of discipline, planting, watering, harvesting, learning, it represents structures, ethics, order.

On the natal chart, Saturn will mean the importance of learning something that is DIRECTLY connected to the sign and house we have there. It's not a mere fatality, no wonder. The natal chart represents our soul lessons, what we have, what we don't have, it represents who we are. Therefore, as I explained on another post here, the natal chart is not a mere record of your birth, which happened to happen that day. The day you were born is extremely special and matters a lot for understanding YOURSELF.

Soon, your sign and house in which Saturn is found in the natal chart will represent the biggest core of your difficulties.

Saturn in Pisces is the difficulty of putting Piscean issues into practice. It is the need to mature with Pisces, to mature like Pisceans.

Lessons:

- Empathy - Recognize your true essence - Appreciation of vulnerabilities, yours and others - Recognize and appreciate the sensibility - Look deeper, deeper and deeper into the different situations of life - Learning to look at what is deepest in yourself, your personality - Acceptance of your unconscious - Greater contact with your creative and fluid expression - Release more, control less - Less attachment to practical life and routines, and development of greater inner contact

Things a natal Saturn in Pisces needs to transform:

- Escapisms of any kind - Poor processing of your emotions - Fear of opening up to others, for leading or being led to believe that there is no value in opening up - Constant isolation that does not bear good fruit - Hiding your true vulnerabilities - Feeling unworthy, especially unworthy of help - Understand why you feel so inadequate and lost, without a true place in the world - Why would spirituality and/or inner contact be useless to you?

Before we start, I would like to explain that Saturn is the planet that brings us the most learning precisely because it is the planet most connected to the meaning of our life on Earth.

Life is primarily about evolving, growing, learning, and if it is about that, and Saturn talks about it, when he appears, he is not shy, he makes noise.

Saturnian experiences never go unnoticed. On the contrary, they always leave marks. If we are all here to learn, the difference will be in how we learn. If the lessons are quite evident from the natal chart, the difference will be whether we learn them through acceptance, active participation, or through escape, and sometimes, through pain - which we end up indirectly generating by not taking responsibility for what we do. We need to evolve.

Saturn Return in Pisces in 1st house: this Saturn Return primarily represents learning the Pisces experience, but in a healthy, harmonious way, especially in your individual experiences, you-you. this Saturn Return touches your experiences with self-esteem again, it's a moment when you find yourself reflecting MUCH more on what you've done in these last few years to assume who you are. Saturn in Pisces in the 1st house in the natal chart represents a fear, a block about assuming who you really are to others, in a deep way. you have probably lived/live pruning your more creative, sensitive sides, your more introspective side, you can be rigid with yourself in these aspects, as well as in others Pisces aspects. now is the time to review what has been done so far to assume the truth of who you are, to unlock fears and blockages in relation to acting, showing yourself and living in a more creative, sensitive, open, intuitive way. another issue that is being revisited/revised at the moment is how much you don't work on your self-esteem in a profound way, it may be that you live on autopilot, in an automatic cycle in which you don't realize yourself, don't understand who you are deeply, just live in a way more automatic. Saturn is making you reflect on this, within your reality.

Saturn Return in Pisces in 2nd house: The Saturn Return in Pisces in the 2nd house brings up life's lessons about how much you can have practical difficulties with stability, comfort, self-worth, personal values. Saturn in Pisces in the 2nd house translates someone who has difficulties with money, a sense of self-worth, everything that involves something earthly and practical brings confusion and difficulties to the person. it may also reflect a person with difficulty in empathy, altruism in relation to personal possessions. with this Saturn Return, we have the return of the greater lesson of self-worth, learning to value yourself more deeply, not seeing material things just for what they are, seeing the meanings that lie behind possessions, of the money. it is important to develop a more stable view of yourself and life.

Saturn Return in Pisces in 3rd house: Those with Saturn in Pisces in the 3rd house have difficulties communicating in a deeper, more creative, and sometimes even empathetic way, depending on the person we are talking about. there may be a block in the way of expressing yourself. internal, creative, deep issues can’t flow through speech and other forms of communication. the lesson that the Saturn Return brings is in the sense of making you review which actions contribute to increasing this difficulty in communicating in an empathetic, open, creative, sensitive way. the Return can also make you realize what generates this, or even the effects of a little Piscean communication. It is possible that in this Saturn Return you also understand the value of seeking more Piscean learning and exchanges, with more creativity, openness, empathy, altruism, connections.

Saturn Return in Pisces in 4th house: This Saturn Return is all about revisiting your inner blocks, especially in terms of emotions and inner life. how disconnected and blocked have you been from your emotional issues? how is your relationship with your home (physical and abstract home)? are you more connected to practical life, routine, practically living on autopilot, without realizing the real motivations of your feelings? it's a Return that makes you face a lot everything that involves emotions, family, home, roots, past, interior life.

Saturn Return in Pisces in 5th house: this Saturn Return brings important lessons in the area of Creativity, Ego, Empathy as a personality trait, Love, Affective expressions. Saturn in Pisces in the 5th house of the natal chart means a lot of difficulty for a native with creativity and expression of what involves Pisces in his individuality. 5th house is ego, expression, art, creation. much of what involves creating, expressing, is connected to the 5th house. as Pisces is also a sign of creations, especially abstract creations (music, for example), a person with this placement has blocks with light, loose expressions. everything seems to be very hard, serious, closed, without lightness, creativity, without color. it is necessary to learn to integrate / develop Piscean characteristics in your personality, in order to have a more fluid life, without so much control, methodism, excessive practicality that, in the end, can be generating cycles of being overly self-demand, perfectionism and even self-punishment. this Saturn Return increases the importance of you working on empathy for yourself, the one that is also embedded in the Ego and that is transmitted to others, because it is something that you already know from the inside. in love, the Return of Saturn in Pisces in the 5th house represents learning to give more voice to sensitivity, and especially to understanding how your unconscious and your past impact your current affective expression. find yourself.

Saturn Return in Pisces in 6th house: Those with this natal placement have difficulties putting Pisces into practice. therefore, expect reflections on: the routine life, your organization, habits, which may be lacking in Piscean gestures and actions. all these things will come to the fore with more intensity. it may be that the person has immense difficulty including relaxation and self-care practices in their daily lives. natives may have difficulty disconnecting from things, often living full of stress, psychosomatizing what they think, what they deal with, due to the difficulty of integrating Pisces into their routine and daily life. Pisces wants and knows the importance of disintegrate, clean, connect, let go, release, escape. Saturn in Pisces in 6th house represents big difficulties with this. we’re talking about a person who needs to take a lot more care of mental health and how much the unconscious affect the physical body. don't sacrifice yourself.

Saturn Return in Pisces in 7th house: the Saturn Return in Pisces through the 7th house marks a great learning experience that involves sacrifice in relationships, sensitivity and empathy in relationships, how much you face yourself in your relationships, how much you require yourself or is required. considering that you have this placement in your natal chart, it is something that will touch you much more, after all, it reflects who you are. this moment bring a lot of inner sensitivity, a lot of revisiting things from the past, however, it can be difficult to practice. Is there balance between giving and receiving? do you demand more and give less? do you give too much, and receive less? how is the balance within your relationships - [which are not restricted to love, ok]? it is also a time to review your openness to truly connect with those around you, without fears of being vulnerable. they are lessons for your life.

Saturn Return in Pisces in 8th house: a Saturn Return deeply connected to spirituality and invisible issues - from you, like your personal unconscious, your mind, your inner issues, or something much bigger. you naturally have an issue with truly opening yourself up to the unknown, by the way, I'm glad you're here reading this and I honor and value your choice. thank you for the opportunity. for you, it's hard to trust the unknown, it's like a breath of uncertainty that you'd rather not hang on to. however, Saturn has been trying to make you review and revisit this, understanding that spirituality, mind, personal unconscious, everything that is dense, deep, unknown, none of this will generate the feeling of being controlled if we are open to FEEL. the biggest lesson of this placement involves control... controlling emotions, experiences, sensations. especially the unknown experiences. issues of difficulty with intimacy may increase during this period. recognize your depth and give voice to it.

Saturn Return in Pisces in 9th house: Saturn Return that touches a lot on your beliefs and faith system. faith even in humanity, in existence. it will be a time to revisit your internal difficulty of trusting, letting go, believing. you may be a person with difficulty connecting with bigger things, who tend to want proof, to understand everything mentally. and probably you believe that this is the best way. but probably it frustrates you, mentally drains you. because is not just about rational mind. we can also experience connection, feel, believe and let go. it's a time to deeply review your belief system, your values, life philosophies, and revisit what you've been doing these 23-24 years in order to mature in this difficulty.

Saturn Return in Pisces in 10th house: this Saturn Return meansreview empathy and expression of your sensitivity/vulnerability in the social arena, in professional life, career. it is a Saturn Return that is also all about finding yourself and understanding your life path. it is a time to finally accept that your sensitivity, creativity, empathy, and everything that involves Pisces, needs to be integrated in a balanced way in your career and professional life. it is necessary to understand that having sensitivity and assuming it to the world does not make anyone weak, quite the contrary, it is a true strength that needs to be used in favor of larger, social issues, or for individual issues that are still relevant, for example, follow and achieve your life path.

Saturn Return in Pisces in 11th house: moment when Saturn returns to make you review your fears of being vulnerable in groups, as well as review your sensitivity issues with the collective. Is your vulnerability experienced collectively? if not, why are you afraid to open up to others? Does your mind point you to any reason for that? Do you struggle with empathy and sensitivity to social issues? or, on the other hand, are you extremely sensitive to others, but hide that face, for fear of criticism, judgment? all these points will be much more touched at this moment, when Saturn returns to bring the revisitation of what still affects you and stops you from experiencing a lighter and more fluid life in society.

Saturn Return in Pisces in 12th house: this Saturn Return is deeply related to learning to integrate Pisces energy into your life. those with Saturn in Pisces in 12th house are always running away from facing themselves, but the things that need to be faced, on the other hand, keep coming up. they come again and again – by the way, in quite abstract ways. this Saturn Return involves learning to CONNECT, let go, trust, stop trying to understand everything through the mental, logical, rational way. and understanding that the more you escape, the more the things that still need to be transformed will be felt in incomprehensible, abstract ways. take care of your mental health, connect with yourself. accept your personality. accept your vulnerability.

reading for the collective #5

hi! i’ve taken a few weeks off and i’m back with a little offering.

it’s august, and you can feel the season slowly starting to change in my neck of the woods. i’m excited!

i’m also in a moment of transition, like i’m sure a lot of people are! it’s the end of summer, the beginning of school. i’m starting a new job this week! i’m hoping you all are enjoying any free time in the sun to recharge and celebrate yourselves.

on to the reading! our cards for this week are the 2 of Swords from the Smith Rider Waite, and drifting from the Roots & Wings oracle. if you enjoyed this reading, please consider donating to my kofi page here. i’m saving up to take a tarot class!

Sometimes life can feel like one big jumble. What’s happening? What’s next? What can you do in the meantime? Drifting gives us the option of doing nothing. Give yourself permission to be without a plan. This isn’t a forever solution— eventually you will feel guided to pick back up a project or discover something new. II of Swords also brings up feelings of hyper-vigilance and indecision. you may feel stuck. But the summer sun is outside, and we work better when refreshed. This pause gives you time to think: is this what you really want? and if it is, is this the best way to achieve it? i’ve found answers to my worst creative blocks during little walks and moments of rest.

thanks for reading this week!  please take what resonates and leave what doesn’t. also, i have a few more free readings to get to— those should be out in the next week or so! if you have any questions, let me know. <3

Energy Update: Leo new moon, August 2021

We are deep in the dark moon energy - this is your cosmic reminder to breathe. There's a lot going on energy-wise and tensions are high and being further flamed by our strengthening Sun-Moon-Mercury conjunction in Leo. If red flags and long nights is your thing, this weekend may be a lot of fun. Leos, as we all know, are the OG Kings and Queens of the horoscope - when the Sun and the Moon conjunct in Leo, egos are where it's at. No shade here - very few people get anywhere in life without a healthy ego. Each sign has its place and Leos is in the limelight. Celebrate where you shine this weekend - every single one of us has Leo somewhere in our charts - you can look at any planets you have in Leo or even what house Leo resides in your chart to see what influence Leo has over your personality. Flaunt it - you've earned it. Maybe don't flaunt it if you haven't earned it though? Do you see how easy it is to get swept up in Leo new moon energy? No astrological event happens in a vacuum. We still have a lot of other shit going on, and it's a doozy. Our Saturn-Uranus square is nothing new but it is picking up our new moon stellium energy through a square to Uranus and an opposition to Saturn. We may see an even bigger uptick in the ego-driven stories and me-first attitudes that have been cropping up for a while over the next week or two. We are being forced to confront the ways that our personal actions affect other people (Sun in Leo opposed Saturn in Aquarius) - both in our personal lives and on a world scale. Additionally, Venus in Virgo is making a strong opposition to retrograde Neptune in Pisces and a square to retrograde Pluto in Capricorn. Watch out for illusions and trickery - all that glitters is not gold and you likely do not have all of the information. Beware of false stories - especially ones that paint you as the great hero or the helpless victim. People are out of patience and there's fire in the air. Lie low, watch what you say, and don't paint a target on your back if you're not looking for a fight. (If you are, you're sure to find one, and good luck!) I get that if it's really your shit - if your life is really in it - then you can't step out of it but for the rest of us, this is your cosmic reminder that you don't need to be in it. That it is okay to tap out for a day or two and recover. Just breathe. Talk to your favorite people. Cook a meal. Go swimming, or hike, or garden. Do something entirely for yourself - something that soothes you, or inspires you, or makes you infinitely happy. And let your others do something too, even if it's not something with you. Even if something that they need to do just for themselves. That's our big flex this weekend - and the deepest form of Leo universal heart energy. Let's all - just for one day - let everybody - including ourselves - just be - ourselves. Do you like my work? Please consider supporting my writing by Buying Me a KoFi.

The Sun. Art by Emily Kay Holloway, from Doodle Tarot.

Having walked all night, the Fool and Spot were thankful to finally see the Sun rise on the horizon! They came upon a picket fence, with so many happy flowers popped up on the other side. The smile beamed down at them with the most joyous smile as a beautiful rainbow appeared above. The Fool laughed with happiness as a baby on a horse came trotting up to them, giggling with delight. The baby waved a flag to show the Fool that their journey was a success and nearing to the end! The Fool celebrated, knowing that they would find their purpose soon!

#ok i love this #tarot

[piptalkstarot]

thanks to everyone who asked me for a free reading! i’m finishing working on those, and am hoping to open up again in the next few months. i want to start practicing longer spreads, and an email format instead of sending through tumblr. if you have any opinions about that, let me know. my ideas are in the very beginning stages.

i also want to start paying more attention to my ko-fi page. do you use ko-fi? do you have a page or any services? you can see my (very) new page here.

i’m thinking of adding 1 card pulls to my page for a $1, specifically for back to school/transition into fall questions. i would have 2 separate listings, one for tarot and one for oracle cards. again, let me know what you think!

I've been thinking about how people are able to manifest huge things without even knowing about either the law of assumption or the law of attraction. It simply goes to show that you don't have to do a bunch of crazy techniques in order to achieve these dreams and goals of yours. All you need is to believe in the outcome and simply live in that feeling that it will come.

A lot of people who don't know about the law of assumption focus all their energy on their physical actions, which makes it often take much longer and require some setbacks and failures in order to eventually achieve their goal. Their use of persistence and the belief in their own abilities, however, is the real reason that they are able to manifest their goals.

However, if you change your self-concept and core beliefs about the workings of the universe, massive and incredible things can happen for you SO much quicker. Instead of it taking decades for your business to succeed, it takes a month. Instead of being no contact with your sp for years, you are able to rekindle the relationship in a few days. It all depends on your own beliefs and how quickly you are able to believe in your own power to change your life instantaneously.

Keep persisting!

reading for the collective #4

hi all! 

i recently moved closer to my family and i’m very excited to see everyone on a regular basis, but the driving + all the socializing has left me really drained. i hope that you’re having fun and making time for rest this summer.

this week i’m using my badger tarot deck (the seller is no longer on etsy sadly) and the roots & wings oracle. our cards are Justice and Balance.

These are 2 wonderful cards to pull together. They make us interrogate ourselves and what we really want out of life. In the Justice card, there is a hound dog searching, with other animals watching in the background. It’s asking us to define our truth and our morals. The balance card is a body shape with roots below, connected to them, and birds above. It reminds us we are apart of the world. It also represents that balance is different for every person.

How we start cultivating these things:

What are ways we can perform actionable change within ourselves, our homes and our communities at large?

We all have to unlearn behaviors and thought patterns. Recently, I’ve been thinking a lot about call ins (also known as call outs) and how they often get reacted to very negatively. Being called in is not a judgement put down upon you. It’s an opportunity to apologize, listen, and modify your behavior. i truly believe that we need to practice and prepare for a call in so we can sat aside those initial ego reactions and better ourselves. if you’re not sure where to start, look up different reactions to call outs. what are the differences between ones deemed positive and negative? check your gut reactions to some of these and then go from there.

Fighting nihilism. This one can be really, really difficult. I’ve gone through the “this doesn’t fucking” matter phase in lots of ways, but right now my focus is on climate change. how can we live everyday, doing our little tasks, while the world literally burns? It’s a lot. i also feel like a lot of the personal things we can do to help mean nothing when compared to what corporations could do. Some people make huge changes to their life in order to live in a more sustainable way. I think that’s amazing! I also don’t think everyone is capable of that. in my life, I try to focus on the small things I can do to help. I use my reusable bags to the best of my ability, i grow herbs so I don’t have to buy the ones in plastic, and try to eat less meat. I also keep up my witchcraft practice so I have that to turn to when I feel nothing matters. what you do may be different. just remember we are apart of the ecosystem, which means we should care. Balance also comes in to play here! Don’t forget to have fun. Enjoy a sunset, eat ice cream, go hike. These joys can help push away those feelings of helplessness. 

thank you for reading this week! I try to keep these shorter, so of course this doesn’t represent my full feelings on this card. i wanted to give that warning bc there was a LOT of points i deleted or reworded. i feel guided to leave you with what’s above. please take what resonates and leave what doesn’t. if you have any questions, let me know! i’m still providing free 3 card readings so let me know if you’re interested.

Stay safe and have a great week ahead! <3

Hello! I hope you’ve had a good week despite all that’s going on in the world. The New Moon was at it’s peak on Friday (though tonight it’ll still be dark!). I started a few new things in my magical practice, and started sewing. a lot. More than I ever have since I got my sewing machine. I made 1 thing by myself and it looks terrible, and 2 things following patterns that look pretty good!! I’m really happy sewing so I’m hoping to ride that wave.

Reader, I hope that you’re finding moments of joy.

This week we have a 3 card spread, plus our oracle card, celebrating the new moon.

Our cards (please know i shuffled in between pulling each one) are the Knight of Cups, King of Swords, and Knight of Pentacles. Our oracle card is Father.

Knight of Cups and your darkness

Emotions can feel scary. Your “dark” emotions can have many causes. What if we stopped being ashamed of these feelings? We don’t have to like them but we can come to accept them, and keep working on them. This card asks you how you plan on doing that work. Maybe you tap into shadow work, meditating and channeling on your behavior and it’s possible causes. Maybe you call your therapist or talk with a friend. This Knight shows us the work is possible— we can sweeten whatever’s in the cup. Or we can drink it down, bitter and dark, and accept that part of us.

King of Swords and your light

Are your boundaries strong right now? Do you feel like you're being walked all over, that your wishes aren’t being met? This card reminds you that you don’t always have to fake happy or “love and light.” That is doesn’t make you a bad person to ask for what you want. Think about where your boundaries need to be stronger. And then think about your own behavior— the king can be cutting and so can we. Are there any areas where you’ve felt extra pressure lately, or times where you’ve been angry out of nowhere? Reflecting on these behaviors can help us create plans for next time. 

Knight of Pentacles and your dark and light in tandem

What would it mean to have all the parts of you working together? Darkness and light do not need to be bad and good. We are all made of things we love, things we aren’t proud of, things we want to work on, and things that make us different. The Knight of Pentacles is a reminder to not lose light of ourselves, whatever it is we want to be. It doesn’t have to be a huge, life changing goal. Do you want to make a quiche? Do you want to read a book on your porch, or learn how to change your oil? Little things can change our lives. We can all learn something new, no matter how old we are. I’m still refining what I want  my life to be like. I’m still trying new things, even though sometimes it is very scary. We all can. The Knight wants us to work for whatever life we want— past what capitalism or social media makes us think we want.

Father: This card has a picture of a stag. This doesn’t have to be your father. All of these cards can be read to be figures in your life— these are traditionally considered men. You see that I’ve chosen here not to do that kind of reading. The card is a part of the Father. Think of this card like Father nature— the father is the stag, or the trees outside, or the mountain that stands full because that’s what it’s meant to do. I’m pulling here from Lindsay Mack’s definition of the emperor because I feel this card represents those same feelings. It’s telling us that we too can take up space. Please remember that for this week’s reading: you belong here.

I hope these words resonate with you! Please take what you need and leave what you don’t. If you have any questions let me know! And feel free to give me feedback— these are cards I often struggle to read, so having 3 of them make up a whole reading was a funny way to force me to feel them out. That’s why I love the tarot!

Stay safe and have a great week!<3
