After what seems like forever, Saturn Retrograde is finally ending when Saturn turns direct in Capricorn on September 29, 2020. Consider this transit an absolute relief—that is, if you’ve put in the work required to reap your rewards. Saturn rules over order, structure, rewards, and punishments (kinky, I know), and in Capricorn, it helps propel us toward our future.

Don’t fret if you don’t have your act completely together just yet—Saturn will stay in Capricorn until December 17, which means you have plenty of time to catch up! Capricorn rewards those who are willing to work. Put your head down, get to it, and begin visualizing your masterpiece.

Aries

Saturn moves direct in your house of legacy and career, symbolizing the beginning of significant, long-term changes when it comes to how others perceive you. If you’ve been expecting a promotion or wanted to change your “title” in some way, now is the time. Stay open to opportunity, and don’t rush into anything you’re not ready for.

Taurus

Have you been thinking about getting away to somewhere drastically new, Taurus? As Saturn turns direct in your house of long-distance travel and higher learning, changes are calling for you. Make a home in academia or set off to reinvent yourself in a new city or country. You might be surprised how a change sets off the spark you need to advance your dreams!

Gemini

Are you ready to let yourself be vulnerable, Gemini? After months of putting in long hours and committing yourself to certain causes, it’s time for you to begin the process of turning from a caterpillar to a butterfly! Keep an open mind and an optimistic heart, especially when it comes to intimacy (wink, wink).

Cancer

You’ve spent enough time reevaluating and reflecting on your relationships, Cancer! Time to switch gears and make some permanent decisions about how you’d like to move forward. Don’t get too stuck in your own head, follow your instincts, and make your move!

Leo

Organize your life, Leo! Saturn moving direct might make you feel exhausted, but you have to figure out how to push forward! Make time for mindfulness meditation and physical exercises. Taking care of yourself today will reward you tomorrow!

Virgo

Your creative energy is beginning to overflow—good for you, Virgo! You’re bringing a new type of order to your passion projects, and even the way you go about having fun (yes, Virgos do that!) is seeing major changes. Keep your dreams alive, Virgo, and it will change your life for the better!

Libra

A lot of major changes are about to awaken within your home and family life. A possible move may even be approaching. But don’t be afraid, Libra! Remember that sometimes changes need to happen. Your ability to remain flexible and focus on yourself will turn this into a prosperous time.

Scorpio

You’ve been working to figure out exactly the right way to express yourself. And your efforts are paying off. Take some time to talk to your siblings or chosen family, and they’ll help you understand how and why you communicate the way you do.

Sagittarius

Just when you thought you knew yourself, the world reminds you that you’re always growing! Saturn direct has you learning some hard lessons about yourself, but don’t fret! Focus on keeping an open mind and welcome your new POV and values.

Capricorn

You’ve been growing and changing for a significant time now—seriously, all these planets in Capricorn won’t leave you alone! Trust that all these challenges and changes are for the best, Cap—just make sure you don’t slack off! Work hard, but try to embrace some sense of work-life balance too.

Aquarius

You’re noticing the world around you changing and honestly, that can feel really intense! Dig yourself out of the dark place and give yourself the opportunity to enjoy the moment. Seriously, pessimism can only get you so far.

Pisces

You’ve got to ~shine~, Pisces, even if you’re struggling to let yourself do so. You might be feeling stagnant, sluggish, or even lazy. There’s nothing wrong taking some me-time, but don’t get too comfortable!
