Saturn, the planet of structure and accountability, stations retrograde on July 13, 2025, at 1° Pisces and turns direct on November 27, 2025, at 7° Pisces. During these 137 days, Saturn appears to move backward in the sky, asking us to slow down and review the foundations of our lives before pushing ahead. Think of it as a cosmic audit: anything flimsy or rushed shows its cracks now, giving you a chance to reinforce it before long-term goals take on heavier weight. AstromitraIn-The-Sky.org
Collectively we can expect a shift from outward hustle to inward maintenance. Projects stall not to frustrate you but to reveal missing pieces fine print, resources, or emotional stamina—that need attention. Because Saturn dipped briefly into Aries and then slides back into Pisces on September 1, spiritual matters, mental health, and creative visions come under review. The question is less “How fast can I advance?” and more “Is this path aligned with my deeper purpose?” Hindustan Times
