Questions
What is a Saturn return?Saturn takes about 29.5 years to go around the zodiac. Your Saturn return is the time it comes back to the exact degree it held when you were born: first in your late twenties, again in your late fifties and once more in your late eighties.
At what age is the Saturn return?The first exact return falls between about 28 and 30, the second between about 58 and 60, the third between about 87 and 89. Because Saturn turns retrograde every year, the exact return often happens three times within about a year.
How long does a Saturn return last?The exact passes take a few days each, spread over up to a year. Many astrologers count the whole time Saturn spends in your Saturn sign, which is about two and a half years.
Who is having a Saturn return in 2026?Saturn is in Aries from February 14, 2026 to April 13, 2028. People born with Saturn in Aries are in their Saturn return in this stretch: born between April 7, 1996 and March 1, 1999 (first return, except June 9 – October 25, 1998) or between March 3, 1967 and April 29, 1969 (second return).
Do I need my birth time?Saturn moves slowly, so the date alone gives its degree closely and the dates of your return. The time and city are needed for the house: the area of life your return is about.
Is the Saturn return bad?Traditionally it is a time to take stock: to drop what no longer fits and build what you want to keep. It is a theme for a few years, not a prediction of a particular event.
