Saturn symbolizes our collective lessons, karma, and responsibility, so the sign where Saturn is transiting through, we all face the consequences of our actions related to the themes of that sign. Pisces is the archetype of unity, faith, evolution, intuition, artistry, inner wisdom, imagination, connection, and the in-between. It’s the last sign of the zodiac, so it can also represent endings and a grand finale.
Saturn will be in Pisces March 7, 2023 until May 24, 2025 with the final squeeze from August 31, 2025, to February 13, 2026.
If you were born…
You're entering your Saturn return on March 7, 2023, but the exact "peak" of your Saturn Return depends on your birthday and the degree of your Saturn. If you're younger, your peak will be later in the 2.5 year period. Saturn returns happen to everyone three times in life, depending on how long you live, between ages 28-31, 58-61, 88-91. They're always periods of maturity, increased responsibility, and personal growth, and not usually easy.

If you're having a baby...
…between March 7, 2023, to May 24, 2025 or September 1, 2025, to February 13, 2026, your baby will have Saturn in Pisces in their natal chart. They will be dreamers, artists, and have big bohemian ideas. Nurture them to feel deeply and express their unique ideas and wise wisdom. These babies are old souls, so don't be surprised if they casually tell you about past lives when you pick them up from preschool. They'll need you to help them set boundaries so they don't deplete their energy.
