1.57 RULING PLANET: SATURN

Though Saturn is generally regarded as unfavorable, its intellectual qualities can prove a valuable influence in most planetary combinations. Faults are usually intensified by Saturn; hence other planetary influences must be stressed to counteract them.

 

In Aries, Saturn with Mars gives Arians a petulant, impulsive disposition that hampers their best efforts. Efforts to think things out hampers the natural foresight of this sign and may lead to unwise speculations.

 

In Taurus, Saturn with Venus adds intellectuality to a pleasure-loving nature, but may increase the stubborn disposition of this sign. This can result in extremes of self-gratification.

 

In Gemini, Saturn and Mercury can develop the mentality of Gemini to the point of real genius. This is harmful when such inventive talent is diverted to unscrupulous purposes as is too often the case. This can be a very dangerous combination.

 

In Cancer, Saturn combines with the Moon, which is seldom helpful to this sign. Restlessness, uncertainty, and moodiness are accentuated and need other planetary influences to temper them.

 

In Leo, Saturn combines with the Sun to give wisdom to idealism, but often retards the exuberance of this sign, producing periods of gloom and dissatisfaction.

 

In Virgo, Saturn combines with Mercury to turn the analytical ability of Virgo into skeptical channels. People under such influence become argumentative, applying their knowledge to useless and sometimes base purposes. Here, again, other influences are needed.

 

In Libra, Saturn with Venus can hamper the good judgment of this sign, often turning sympathy to jealousy. Much effort is needed to counteract this.

 

In Scorpio, Saturn and Mars are sometimes helpful to this sign, giving wisdom to courage, adding intellectuality to drive. Any gloom or cynicism may bring out the faults of Scorpio, in the form of greed and self-will.

 

In Sagittarius, Saturn curbs the zeal of Jupiter, adding a scholarly touch to the varied energy of this sign.

 

In Capricorn, the influence of Saturn is doubled, adding to the practical foresight of this sign. Defeatism, in its turn, is more evident. Other planetary influences can be used to activate the high qualities of this sign.

 

In Aquarius, the double influence of Saturn accentuates the intellectual and humanitarian qualities of this sign, but they can build a double-thick shell as well. High aim, good associations, are a “must” with this type.

 

In Pisces, Saturn provides Jupiter with the needed intellectuality to produce a strong philosophy in persons of this sign. They can usually tide over disappointments, and if they can shake off morbid moods, this combination should bring them fame as well as popularity.
