Saturn will turn retrograde in Sagittarius on March 14th, 2015. He’ll return to Scorpio the second half of June through the first half of September. Scorpio and the other fixed signs (Taurus, Leo & Aquarius) read this and groan. However, I see this as an opportunity.

Saturn only transits a sign every 28.5 years. If you keep this in mind, you can see this is your last chance to get a grip on Scorpio-themed problems and set yourself up for close to three decades.

Scorpio-themed problems are not boring, that’s for sure. We’re talking about overcoming fear of death, gaining control of your pathology, taking responsibility for your shadow, learning to work with you subconscious and/or your “gut”.

We’re talking about learning to manage your energy of all kinds. Learn to exchange energy, and to not be a drain on others or allow them to drain you. Learn about power struggles and come to terms with the fact there is evil in the world.

Advanced students can learn to transform the negative into something magical, the same way flowers grow from manure. I don’t think of this is concerning. It’s like you’re going to class, hey! May as well try to learn something. I just can’t see suffering and learning nothing. I don’t we’re designed that way.

In whatever case, I feel this period will be significant. It’s the reason I did not have a workshop on Saturn in Sagittarius. I felt it would be premature. It makes a lot more sense to focus on Saturn in Sagittarius once we’re in it and not looking back.

If you want to get the most out of this period, review you copy of my Saturn in Scorpio workshop. If you don’t have one and it’s not out of reach of your budget, I would really consider investing. What you’ll learn from it is priceless, never mind the pain you’ll be spared.

Is there anyone (besides me), looking forward to Saturn’s last gasp in Scorpio?
