Transits
Saturn Cycle Summary
While all transiting planets follow the same counter-
clockwise motion through the signs and houses of our
natal chart, astrologers tend to focus on Saturn, due to
the fact that it controls form—everything physical in the
chart and in life. Saturn measures generations; its return
at about 29.4 years marks the threshold of young and
old, of inner and outer. Saturn marks some of the major
rites of passage.
The cycle of Saturn through the houses of the chart, in
its going from a point of greatest vision, or outside-
looking-in, to a point of greatest experience, inside-
looking-out, follows the form of all cycles The tenth
house cusp is the point of greatest vision (outside-
looking-in) and the fourth house cusp is the point of
greatest experience (inside-looking-out).
