Saturn in Virgo: all about Saturn in Virgo

This Saturn-in-Virgo page and much of this 550-page website are excerpted from You and the Universe, a handmade, individualized fine art book on astrology, mythology and astronomy through which the recipient's complete astrological reading is woven.

With Saturn in Virgo your test is the lesson of discrimination: what's important, and what’s not. Don't obsess or worry over details and inconsequentials, be aware of nagging, and watch your criticism, especially of co-workers. If Saturn is afflicted, you may have to guard against a generally irritable disposition. Your mind is very orderly and analytical, but it would help to develop your sense of humor and to not take life so seriously. Difficulties in assimilating life's experiences can lead to nerve problems. This sign placement denotes good researchers, scientists, accountants, bookkeepers, or any profession with a great deal of detail. Saturn returns to each sign once every 29 or 30 years for about a three-year stay. Saturn was in Virgo from 8/1919 to 10/1921, from 9/1948 to 8/1951, from 7/1978 to 9/1980, and from 8/2007 to 10/2009.
