Saturn in Capricorn — a lesson in duty and the summit

Saturn in Capricorn — in its own domicile: here it is strong, strict and builds for the long run. Saturn stays in a sign for about two and a half years, and peers share the sign — Saturn's house will say more about the person.

What it means

Responsibility is taken on early and seriously; goals — career, status, a business of your own — are reached over years. With age, life only becomes more stable.

The flip side is harshness toward yourself, trouble resting and enjoying yourself without a reason; early adulthood.

Not about you if responsibility is a burden to you and career goals do not interest you.

How to check it on yourself

Check it against your past — write your answer down before you look at the chart.

  1. If you have Saturn in Capricorn

    What should match. Remember when your first serious responsibility came — work, the family's money, caring for someone. It happened before you were twenty.

    When it’s not about you. Your first serious responsibility came after twenty-five — then this is not about you.
