Saturn in Aries
22 August 1967, 07:38, Kirkland, WA, USA
A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to Layne as “you”.
The outer planets (Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto) travel very slowly and are called generational planets. Neptune and Pluto, for example, have entire generations in the same sign, that is why the position of these planets is not so important in personal horoscope interpretation. However, it is so much more important, if generational planets are at important points, if they form important aspects and their importance, of course, depends on the house they are in.
Saturn is the natural ruler of Capricorn and the planet that represents limitations, uneasiness, distrust, great teacher and karma. Saturn symbolizes the limitations in your life that you have to overcome on your path of personal growth.
The position of Saturn shows how you develop responsibility and discipline. It also importantly influences your career and life ambitions. It represents authorities, the elders hierarchy, time and hard and persistent work.
