Saturn in Pisces Transit (2025-2028)

saturn in pisces (2025-2028)

Saturn stays in a sign for 2.5 years, taking about 29 years to go around the whole zodiac. Saturn’s transit shows an area of life where hurdles give us opportunities and teach us about discipline and responsibility. Saturn has been transiting Aquarius since January 2023, it now enters Pisces, where it will transit between 2025 and 2028.

The timeline of Saturn in Pisces will be different than Saturn in Aquarius, where the planet transited that sign uninterrupted between 2023 and 2025. This time around, Saturn will enter Aries around 2027, and retrograde back to finish the Pisces transit in 2028.

Saturn in Pisces transit:

29/03/2025 until 02/06/2027

19/10/2027 until 23/02/2028

Aspects wise, this is also a more eventful transit than the previous one. Here Saturn will form a conjunction with Neptune, an important transit that will influence us between 2025 and 2026. This conjunction happens every 36 years, and it signals a time of cultural and political change. I wrote a full text on the conjunction, but to shorten things, just understand that the next two years are important moments of change in the world.

Another aspect is Saturn conjunct Rahu. This aspect last happened in 2013. It promotes political and social tension in the world, which goes along with other aspects discussed. This aspect will be prominent mostly from March to May 2025, so this could be a turbulent time, with protests and tension around the world.

By nature, Saturn always tends to block and reduce the mundane matters related to the sign where it transits. In Aquarius, that deals a lot with technological innovations, science, rebels and dissidents. The downturns in the tech industry, their legal troubles around the world and the lack of innovation were all marks of the last couple of years.

As I’ve previously highlighted, this trend will be reversed with Saturn in another sign. So improvements in the technological sector are likely to come, and the overall situation of the industry will improve. Specially after May 2025, we are likely to see many improvements.

But what about Pisces? Pisces represents anything sheltered or other-worldly. Primarily, that deals a lot with monks, priests and religious figures. It also deals with artists, according to most astrologers. I however, extend this definition a little bit. Any kind of intellectual, thinker or specialist can be seen through Pisces. As these are areas that deal with a sheltered and elite position amongst men.

With Saturn in Pisces, we can see restrictions in regards to all these sectors. Religious scandals can come out now. Artists might have a hard time getting financing for their projects. Religious and artsy themes might be rejected or ignored by the masses. Similarly, intellectuals (specially those aligned with the status quo) might be rejected, and they might lose influence during this transit.

The last point goes along with the big aspects of change happening in the coming years, showing a time of great political and social changes. Intellectual voices of the present will lose influence, as we start entering a new reality.

In the movie and television sectors, we could see many changes and reductions. Staff cuts, mergers and crisis in the sector are possible. Religious scandals could similarly arise, with manipulation or deception coming out, or even things like sexual abuse scandals.

Pisces rules wise elders, so it deals with bureaucratic boards or any kind of council-like structure. Those matters might be similarly weakened or restricted in the next couple of years.

On a personal level, Saturn here will enter like a roller-coaster in our lives. First, between March and May 2025, acting so close to Rahu it might compel us into acting or taking a strong stand. A big need for change, and making a commitment, related to the Pisces house in our chart tends to come forward. For instance, Aries could want to end or abandon something, while Gemini could be making big career moves.

After May, with Rahu out of Pisces, we stop feeling that Rahu excess. It can be a shocking change, as we replace excess with Saturn’s restrictive nature. Still, Saturn’s personal transit is all about understanding and improving problem areas in our lives, areas that are weak spots needing more work and focus. Important life lessons usually come out of this process.

Below we have transit predictions for all the 12 signs, please read in accordance to your Ascendant or Moon sign:

  • Aries: The 12th house is the house of endings, this transit precedes the incoming bigger focus of Saturn coming into your sign. It is a moment of cleaning house and preparing. This is the moment to make peace with what happened, good and bad, and build yourself up towards moving on. Dealing with the aftermath of recent years, your decisions, projects and pursuits is the focus now. A trend here could be escapism, or avoiding your problems, you shouldn’t do that. The more you avoid your burdens, the more the past will come back to bite you.
  • Taurus: The 11th house deals a lot with desire, getting what you want in life. This transit comes as a paradox. On one hand, it is a time of recognition, where many of your projects from recent years could be advancing and prospering. On the other hand, you might feel empty/unsatisfied or personally restricted by the new responsibilities created by said achievement. Learning and practicing gratitude is very important here, appreciating what you conquered. Another great lesson could be replanning or rethinking your major desires in life.
  • Gemini: The 10th house puts your public life, what you present or have to show to the world, into focus. It can be a time of great opportunities and movement in your career. Increased responsibilities will tend to arise. This tends to be a very good transit.
  • Cancer: The 9th house deals with luck, philosophies, religions and hope. This transit forces you to organize your thoughts and ideas, taking charge of formulating your life rules. The main goal here is to organize your life, comprehend your perspectives and ideas, and apply them to your world. A bigger focus on religion and spiritual studies can come into play now, you might be reading more, practicing more, etc. Issues with your father could come up now, so be aware.
  • Leo: Saturn in the 8th is a double-edged sword. For one thing, with Saturn moving out of the 7th house, Leo has less blockages in his life. More recognition and prestige come out of this shift. However, the 8th is not an easy house. Trouble with taxes, insurance or investments are a possibility. Deaths in the family are another issue. A big mission with this transit is dealing with transformation, learning and embracing the change your life needs.
  • Virgo: Saturn in the 7th can deal a lot with status anxiety in life. Worries about relationships, career and stability all come into play. You might be rethinking your professional efforts, as you could be in a lull of recognition or development. Similarly, relationships can be a source of concern. For those in a relationship, you could want to change and improve things. For those single, a strong desire for partnership can arise. A big lesson here is understanding that we all have our own time. Some will meet their sweetheart in high school, others will do it at age 40. Some will strike out their career early on, others will be late bloomers. Compare yourself to yourself, not to others. Grow based on your own criteria.
  • Libra: The 6th house deals with health, enemies and complications. As such, this isn’t the prettiest of transits. You could be dealing with health issues, conflicts or arguments, issues with taxes or bureaucracies and other complications. Still, you have great disposition for improvement now. Usually, from my experience, people tend to come out of this transit either with a new health regiment or career improvements. Rethinking your health, eating better, working out more could come into play. As well as improving your professional life. This is not an easy transit, it can be very tiring and upsetting at times, but it is a necessary moment of hygiene and improvement; the troubles now all deal with things you want to change and fix.
  • Scorpio: The 5th is the house of fun, Saturn is the planet of responsibility, a mismatch of sorts. The coming years are all about toning down the fun. You might feel restricted in regards to friends, fun and enjoyment. If you have, or want to have children, this could be the time they come into your life. Similarly, it can be a time where you become very serious about a hobby or your studies, with increased dedication and focus.
  • Sagittarius: The 4th house deals with home, comfort and the foundations of life. Saturn here deals with maintaining and improving our foundations. Improving your life, reviewing decisions, creating systems are all things that come into play now. Externally, a lot could be going on with your family, specially in regards to your mother. Similarly, issues in your home could create a need to move or renovate. Internally, this transit is all about emotions and inner comfort. This transit always provides a strong grounding, as you are forced to look within your emotions and re-think a lot of your needs. Overall, this transit is a time to rebuild and make a solid foundation for your life, internally and externally.
  • Capricorn: Saturn in the 3rd favors hard work, which is a great match for Capricorn. This can be a very positive and productive period. However, this can be a time where you deal with trouble in regards to your siblings. It can also be a time where your studies get hard, and complications arise. A hard time traveling can also be in the books, with restrictions or a simple lack of travel now. A big lesson here deals with communicating better with those close to you.
  • Aquarius: Saturn in the 2nd comes as a relief of sorts, moving out of your 1st house, things get easier for you specially on a psychological level. You will feel less restricted and freer. The big lull of this transit deals with money and finances, spending responsibly and learning to manage your own resources will be a big thing in the next couple of years. Issues with family can come up now, and you might feel lacking in support. A big lesson of this transit deals with improving your self-esteem, self-worth and self-reliance.
  • Pisces: Saturn in the 1st puts the spotlight on you. It is a time of great change and great responsibility. For the younger ones, this is a time where you “grow up”, taking charge of life instead of just riding it carelessly. It is not the easiest transit, but it is an important phase of growth for you. Many challenges arise now, and you are forced to reap what you sow. Your whole life is changing now, the key thing is to understand your role in the world. You can’t control the circumstances, but you can control your own behavior.

2025 in Astrology

Summary

2025 will be a year of great change astrologically. Saturn will change signs, going into Pisces. Rahu and Ketu will change signs, going into Aquarius and Leo. Uranus will enter Taurus. All this, along with important mundane aspects like Saturn-Neptune and Uranus trine Pluto, shows a time for great change in the world. It is a very volatile moment in time.

Early 2025, in many ways, will be a rehash of many 2024 situations. Mars retrograde shows that, as the planet will transit the same degrees between August 2024 and May 2025. To a great level, the early months of the year are a lot about reliving the end of 2024.

Similarly, some issues of 2020 and 2021 will make a comeback, in a new fashion. Formerly promoted things could be shunned, formerly shunned things could be promoted. Reversals, reviews and disavows will tend to happen.

Late February and early March can be troublesome moments, with Mars turning direct and promoting conflict from a pent-up energy.

We will slowly start moving ahead. The winds of change will start being seen around March, with the Eclipses and Saturn entering Pisces. Greater change will come around May, when Rahu and Ketu change signs. Rahu and Saturn will make a very interesting inversion, each entering the sign the other one was transiting in 2024.

This inversion deals a lot with illusions and harsh reality. Rahu in Pisces, close to Neptune, promotes illusions and deception. So many matters and problems were easily kept under the rug with this influence. It was easier to lie an deceive under this influence.

In 2025, not only does this influence stops helping, but Saturn approaching Neptune will promote the opposite. It is not that the whole world will suddenly wake up and we will be forever changed. But many harsh realities will come out and be felt in the world. People will be shocked, frustrated and forced to deal with it.

Economically, in some places of the world, this will deal with crisis and issues coming out. Many woes or troubles kept under wraps will come out in 2025. Similar frustration, as denoted above, will arise. Changes in leadership around the world will be another strong factor, with the decline and possible fall of many rulers.

From late March to mid May, Saturn and Rahu will be transiting conjunct in Pisces. Saturn-Rahu is an influence that promotes protests, turmoil and agitation. So after the March eclipses, we could enter a very heated moment.

Around June, we start moving away from the past, and seeing new influences coming out. For good and bad. On the positive, the second half of 2025 can be specially great for technology. With new great advances coming out and improving our world. The summer months can be a time of protests or conflict.

In September, the second round of Eclipses will happen. The Eclipses signal a time for strong change and transformation in the world. The end of 2025 will deal a lot with change and the woes of change. On the positive, we will be moving forward with new things coming into play. Still, many will be dealing with anger, frustration and unhappiness about the transformations happening.

Overall, 2025 is a very volatile year, we are on the verge of great change in the coming years and many things are uncertain now. Learning to adapt and be flexible is a very important thing this coming year.

Context

Main Factors

Saturn conjunct Neptune

2025 has two big and important aspects happening, the main one being Saturn conjunct Neptune. Those that read all my writings are probably sick of me talking about this aspect, but it is a very important influence. It shows a new cultural cycle, moving away from the previous one started in the late 80s. Culture forms society, so this is the starting point for many changes in the world

On the political landscape, this is a strong moment of change. Any leader who entered office before 2025 will be in an uncomfortable position. They might be swapped by a rival, or even a new comer, as the moods shift away from the sentiment that lead them into power.

Saturn conjunct Neptune predictions

The quote above, from September 2024, highlights this as a time of political change with the shifting moods around the world. Obviously, the Trump election in the US is a great illustration of this, with the incumbents losing. Similarly, the fall of Assad in Syria is another example. But I expect to see similar changes going forward in other countries in the world, the moods are shifting.

Again, I don’t want to repeat my whole predictions for Saturn-Neptune here, those that want more details are advised to read them. The important thing to understand is that 2025 is a time for big cultural and societal changes.

Uranus trine Pluto

This aspect has an irregular frequency, but it last happened about 100 years ago, in the 1920s. That was when Hitler and Stalin were rising to power. The aspect puts Uranus, the planet of revolution and change; energizing Pluto, the planet of power and control. So it is an aspect about change in the world, change in leaders, change in how the world is organized. This aspect will be in effect from 2025 to 2029, marking a strong moment of change in the world.

With Uranus and Pluto in earth signs, the change incoming deals a lot with tangible things, material life, as well as the economy. Incoming economic shifts, for good and bad, will force people to deal with reality. From that, we will see major shifts and transformations.

Obviously, with this aspect spanning about half a decade, 2025 won’t have the end game of everything. Still, combined with other influences, this aspect will promote major changes and developments this year.

Jupiter square Saturn

The second big factor of the year is Jupiter square Saturn. This aspect englobed the second half of 2024, and will be with us for the first semester of 2025. It shows a turning point, or review, of the great conjunction of these two planets in 2020. As such, it deals a lot with reviewing and looking back on what happened around 2020 and 2021. Themes like the pandemic, internet censorship, and others are likely to come back into focus now.

Other factors

Aquarius and Pisces switch

An interesting pattern between 2024 and 2025 is the switch between Saturn and Rahu. 2024 had Saturn in Aquarius and Rahu in Pisces, 2025 will have Saturn in Pisces and Rahu in Aquarius. This is a very interesting change, as Saturn restricts while Rahu exalts and highlights. So Aquarius will go from zero to hero, while Pisces will do the opposite.

This will be specially prominent in regards to technology, I published on this recently. Restrictions in the industry will be lifted, and many improvements are likely to come.

But technology isn’t the only Aquarius area available. Aquarius is the sign of disruption, so anything disruptive, that transforms society, falls under this realm. Aquarius also rules radical politics, conspiracy theories, science, new discoveries/inventions. Again, with the shift, all these areas will lose their restrictions and tend to rise.

With Pisces, the opposite route will happen. It rules religion, deep faith, wise elders and/or counsellors, arts and creativity, music, photography and cinema. The high created by Rahu will leave the sign, being replaced by the restrictions of Saturn. So a downturn in those areas is possible.

Pisces rules wise elders, as we no longer live mostly in tribes, this relates to bureaucrats or boards. So these will tend to be weakened around the world.

With the arts, I expect to see mergers of movie studios and production companies. Reductions, cost cutting and more efficiency on a smaller market.

Religious scandals, specially sex-abuse scandals, are also a possibility.

Bear in mind that Saturn will remain in Pisces from 2025 to around 2028 (it will enter Aries in 2027 for a bit, retrograding back), so these restrictions and woes are possible in the next couple of years as well.

Mars Retrograde

Mars starts the year retrograde, so it will have a repetitive pattern in the first semester of 2025. It will transit in Cancer and Gemini up until June, when it will finally enter Leo, after being in the two previous signs since August 2024.

  • 26/08/2024 05:55 Mars in Gemini
  • 20/10/2024 04:52 Mars in Cancer
  • 06/12/2024 18:28 Mars retrograde 11°57’57” Cancer
  • 20/01/2025 23:35 Mars in Gemini (R)
  • 23/02/2025 21:07 Mars direct 22°48’22” Gemini
  • 02/04/2025 15:59 Mars in Cancer
  • 06/06/2025 16:42 Mars in Leo

Mars is the heat of action, it shows the moods exciting and stimulating people at a certain time. With Gemini, that deals mostly with communication and search for new ideas. With Cancer, it deals with emotion, familiarity and a desire to be nurtured. Cancer is the lowest point for Mars, showing childishness or passional/emotional action, rather than logical efforts.

The Gemini moment, between January and early April, will deal a lot with freedom of speech and movement around the world.

The Cancer moment will be a time of deep emotion, and deep irrationality, specially as Mars will oppose Pluto, adding fuel to the fire.

  • 03/11/2024 06:37 Mars opposing Pluto 05°33’34” (Cancer-Capricorn)
  • 03/01/2025 02:22 Mars opposing Pluto 06°55’45” (Cancer-Capricorn)
  • 26/04/2025 21:05 Mars opposing Pluto 09°35’38” (Cancer-Capricorn)

These oppositions can be heated moments of conflict, with protests or clashes happening. Mars in Cancer is somewhat dysfunctional, so actual practical results might be lacking after said protests. Still, they might be noticeable or troublesome.

Mars entering Leo will break the cycle, and after June we might start to see major change in the world, with Mars moving on from this Gemini and Cancer focus.

Major Planetary Shifts

  • 18/03/2025 20:11 Uranus in Taurus
  • 29/03/2025 12:15 Saturn in Pisces
  • 14/05/2025 13:07 Jupiter in Gemini
  • 18/05/2025 10:05 Rahu/Ketu enter Aquarius/Leo (until 05/12/2026)
  • 18/10/2025 10:19 Jupiter in Cancer
  • 05/12/2025 06:55 Jupiter in Gemini

The major change of 2025 is Uranus entering Taurus, where it will remain consistently until 2031. It was in Aries between 2017 and 2023, and between both signs in 2024. Now it will remain in Taurus.

The Saturn change was discussed in a section above, same as the Rahu change. On the nodes, I must add that the change is very important in regards to the Eclipses.

The Jupiter cycle, with yearly changes, is unusual and interesting this year. First, up until May we remain under the influence of Jupiter in Taurus. So early 2025 will deal a lot with economy, security and stability. The entry of Uranus in the sign indicates a time of change, where past stable or certain things will start changing. Jupiter here will highlight problem areas and things that need to be changed.

After May, we will have the main Jupiter transit of 2025, with Jupiter in Gemini. Jupiter here will favor technology, communication and expression. Specially considering the pattern of Mars, going retrograde in the same sign, this is a strong time for Gemini matters. Many changes are possible in regards to tech, media, communication and others.

Between October and December, we will have a temporary venture of Jupiter into Cancer, the sign of exaltation of the planet. Jupiter in Cancer could unearth past issues, and strengthen the search for justice about past wrongdoings and deceptions. But I tend to see this as a stronger thing in 2026, albeit we could get a small preview in 2025.
