What Does Retrograde Mean?

A planet is retrograde when it appears to move backwards across the cosmos from our perspective on Earth. We mostly hear about retrograde in relation to Mercury which occurs three times a year and last for roughly three weeks each time. Generally speaking, retrograde are times of REsearchREviewREvisionREconsideration, and REevaluation relating to the urges or energies of the planet in question. 

Saturn Retrograde in Aquarius 

May 23rd 2021 to October 10th, 2021 

Saturn Retrograde begins in 13° Aquarius. Saturn is the planet that seeks out structure and stability. He is all about discipline and order. With Saturn in Retrograde you can expect delays in any effort to grow on your part --- or the part of others for that matter. Such delays teach us patience and gives us the opportunity to review any changes we would like to make. This is a good time to review our long-term goals for the future and any plans we may have for success and achievement. Trying to move forward now can actually make us fall behind. 

Saturn Retrograde & You

Saturn Retrograde brings the opportunity for us to redefinerestructure, or reorganize some area of our life in some way. The house where Aquarius falls in your natal, or birth, chart is the area of life where these opportunities and lessons will be presented to you. When Saturn stations direct again, it is time to apply what your learned to your life.

Example 

Saturn Retrograde in Aquarius and the 4th House 

In my chart, I have Saturn Retrograde in Aquarius and the 4th house can be difficult. Aquarius represents the future and the unknown, while the 4th house is related to the past and your roots. For the person with Saturn Retrograde in Aquarius and the 4th house, you may find yourself torn between the future and the past. Before you can move forwards, you may need to revisit your past, your family, and your roots to build up your foundation. 

Saturn Retrograde is also making a square, hard aspect, to my natal Mars. Under this aspect, you can experiences blockages that result in bouts of anger. You may feel like other people are trying to stop you from doing something and so you lash out and make things worse for yourself. 

How will Saturn Retrograde manifest for you?
