We apologize for the inconvenience but it is worth the jump over to our blogspot.


In the recent past, we posted information transiting Saturn in Opposition to Natal Uranus. Here’s a link for your convenience. 




There are no half measures about what is taking hold under this aspect but stay strong and persevere. This too will pass, and a new life situation is materializing as we work our way through some of the life lessons that are being presented. Remember, Saturn is the teacher but also the disciplinarian.  Saturn Opposition natal Pluto present hard times and events often out of our hands. Let go of what was, and prepare for what’s to come which, over time, will prove to be necessary.
Saturn Opposition Natal Pluto

Today, we will focus on transiting Saturn’s Opposition Natal Pluto and will use Pluto in Libra as our example. This would affect Gen X and some early Millennials (1971 to 1984).  Pluto did slip back into Virgo and ahead into Scorpio temporarily during this time frame, however.  Check the ephemeris to confirm if your Pluto is in Libra. 

 

The energy of Uranus often brings sudden and unexpected changes into our lives.  Pluto is similar but, in most cases, it is not so sudden in its nature, and the changes it brings are not unexpected.  Pluto often depicts a complete and total change, while Uranus suggests a change is needed but the change brought on by Uranus do not have to be a total change as it is with Pluto.  Pluto is much more dynamic in its expression and often creates turmoil and chaos while initiating the change that is required.  Change either by Uranus or Pluto is always requirement.

 

Pluto’s influence is often out of our hands, and we will need to learn to go with the flow rather than fight what is taking place in our lives.  With Saturn as part of the picture, Pluto says that what once was must now be in the rearview mirror. Change will take place no matter how much we fight the process. 

 

Rarely will Pluto let things lie, unless the changes that are coming into force correlate on some level with what is already in place.  This is extremely rare and when Pluto is active, we must learn to adapt. It is important to acknowledge that this new path is not only necessary, but also mandatory.

 

If we use the same houses as examples as we did in our Saturn Opposition Natal Uranus post (Transiting Saturn in the first house and Natal Pluto in the seventh), we can expect almost with certainty that the relationship is not working as it is now.  In many cases, the recent struggles that are being experienced especially if Saturn is sitting on or just into the first house (meaning that Pluto is near the seventh house cusp), the challenge although certainly involving you is set in motion by the partner or someone related or impacted by the partner.  This is not to say that the relationship is destroyed, but it is most certainly in turmoil, and the issues need to be addressed.  Work needs to be done in an impactful manner.  Watch for disagreements and arguments, and in some cases violence.  The energies of Pluto are being impacted by Saturn, which can be quite destructive and painful to the ego.

 

There are no half measures about what is taking hold under this aspect but stay strong and persevere. This too will pass, and a new life situation is materializing as we work our way through some of the life lessons that are being presented. Remember, Saturn is the teacher but also the disciplinarian.  Saturn Opposition natal Pluto present hard times and events often out of our hands. Let go of what was, and prepare for what’s to come which, over time, will prove to be necessary.

When exploring the transits of Saturn, allow a 5° orb applying and a 4° separating. Saturn’s energies would influence us for approximately 5 months depending on whether it goes into retrograde motion.  If it goes retrograde, its energies will last longer.  This Astrologer prefers to use a tighter degree of orb than some Astrologers as we generally do not feel the intensity of an aspect before these closer degrees I have set out. 

 

After years of study, it is apparent that the most intense period is when an aspect is direct, although with Saturn, and its delaying influence, it is most powerful between 1° and 2° after it is direct.

 

Saturn’s influence, as with any aspect, is temporary although during its connection, it most certainly can be impactful in our lives. 

 

What can we learn from Saturn while it is having an impact on our lives?

 

Remember Saturn is the teacher!

 


Saturn opposition natal Uranus is certainly a push and pull energy where change will happen unexpectedly but necessary and likely affects others but Saturn is resistant as it wants security and stability.
Saturn Opposition Natal Uranus

With Saturn Opposition natal Uranus, we can always expect the unexpected.  Uranus acts on impulse and Saturn delays, restricts and creates hurdles that hold us back from moving in the directions that Uranus wants us to move towards.  Since Oppositions often involve other people, these particular individuals involved may play a big role in what this aspect produces. 

 

Uranus wants to let go of anything that holds back our evolution.  It is the harbinger of awakening and does not like to be stifled.  It moves us to where we need to go and, in most cases, suddenly and unexpectedly. 

 

Saturn on the other hand seeks security and stability and resists change. You can well imagine how these two planetary energies might battle with one another.  They are opposing forces, one resisting what needs to take hold as it wants to maintain a secure foundation and the other is frustrated because it is being held back from moving in a direction that just might free you from the old, outdated practices.

 

The houses involved will be of extreme significance as they represent the areas of life being influenced by this transit.  If, for example, Saturn while in transit is in the first house and Natal Uranus is in the seventh house, learning what is important for you on a personal level is being impacted by the needs being met concerning your spouse or business partner.  You may ask, what you can do for yourself while influencing your relationship so that things are not disheveled or what does your partner need from you that you are unwilling to change or what do you need from your partner that they are unwilling to change (but this latter scenario is less likely but could be part of the process).

 

Uranus in the seventh (as in our example) natally suggests that the partnership is unpredictable and subject to change and evolution.  This information is not detailed because the whole chart needs to be examined to form a full picture.

 

Saturn opposition natal Uranus is certainly a push and pull energy where change will happen unexpectedly but necessary and likely affects others but Saturn is resistant as it wants security and stability.

On September 22, 2025, the Sun moves from Virgo, a Mutable, Earth sign into Libra, a Cardinal, Air sign.  (As a side note, there are three modalities in Astrology: Cardinal, Mutable and Fixed. They represent action and addressing situations with a degree of confidence and the potential of success because of the actions we have or have not taken.) 

 


Happy solar return to our need of balance, justice seeking, compromising, social, positive, peace at any cost Libra followers.
Sun in Libra

Sun in Libra is concerned with honesty and fairness and can be quite diplomatic while attempting to address situations.  They look for balance and harmony especially when it comes to important relationships, primarily the marriage partner, although this stretches out into other relationships as well.  (The other Cardinal signs: Aries Cancer and Capricorn, may or may not incorporate some of these qualities.  Each Cardinal Sign has its own characteristics, but all maintain action and a degree of confidence in their objectives.)

 

Libra seeks peace at almost any cost and has been known to sit on the fence to find a resolution to any conflict situation.  They do not like to argue but will speak their mind especially when defending or protecting others.  Many Librans will stand up for the underdog.  Their objectives in life are to have justice, and they would make excellent mediators, judges, and conflict revolutionaries.  They see all sides of situations and will work tirelessly to find solutions to problems affecting others.

 

Libra is ruled by Venus, the planet of love and affection.  Partnership is important to the typical Libran and many feel whole only after they find a suitable mate.  They can be picky, and most Libra individuals are attractive, like to look after their physique, are appealing and can be quite cordial.  Many love what is referred to as the nicer things in life, like a home with furnishings that suggest affluence, a nice comfortable vehicle and the feeling of not doing without.

 

In our next Astrology post on September 22, we will focus on the aspects which are affecting those with Sun in Libra over the coming year.

 

Happy solar return to our need of balance, justice seeking, compromising, social, positive, peace at any cost Sun in Libra followers.
