A brand-new evolutionary cycle began with Saturn’s transit in Aries on May 25. Since it takes Saturn 29.5 years to go through the entire zodiac, it spends about 2.5 years in each sign. After a passage through Pisces, which encouraged us to free ourselves from illusions and heal emotional and mental wounds, Saturn—the planet of time, rules and structures—begins its journey through Aries. “The fire of momentum meets the wisdom of time,” explains astrologer Léa Baixo. This is no longer the time to rush ahead headlong, but to learn to act with maturity, precision and intention. “This transit pushes us to rebuild our relationship with action, identity and courage. What we initiate now requires constancy, structure and heart. We’re learning to transform impatience into power, impulsiveness into clarity. It’s a time to take your place, not in haste, but in alignment.” Some signs will be more affected than others: people whose natal sign is cardinal, i.e. Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn.
