Use your knowledge, everything you’ve learned, from books, from classes, from people, from personal experience, but also use your intuition.
For example, you may be looking at someone’s chart and see transiting Saturn through the 2nd House and you may think to yourself:
Self! That person is going to lose a job! They will cry! They will feel oppressed! Afraid!
But remember this, budding astrologer: that Saturn, instead, may compel that person to get serious (Saturn) about work, mature (Saturn) about money. They may work harder than ever. Or not. π
Most likely work will change. Out with the old, in with the new. And Saturn does indeed reward Hard Work so yes count on a cookie or two if you really commit.
But don’t see a Saturn transit (EVEN IF it makes squares or oppositions to the natal) and assume BAD or assume HARD (in any kind of typical way).
Someone could have a liberating Saturn transit or a transformative Saturn transit or a beautiful Saturn transit. Will there be a death of some kind? Probably.
Remember: Saturn co-rules Aquarius! Think outside the box when you look at charts. Use you intuition. Use your imagination.
Edgar Cayce spoke often of using the “imaginative forces.” Β Do not feel limited by any textbook or any website or anything I say π Go deeper.
Come to think of it, Saturn in Scorpio will be EXCELLENT for this kind of work. It will make Astro-Detectives of us all.

I was looking at someone’s chart today who is in the middle of Saturn through their 7th. Do not ignore this transit. Do the work of this transit. I wonder if anyone can really ignore it. Well, they can feel crushed by it. But that’s only one way to go about it.
Saturn and Pluto are both death planets, endings planets.
Yeesh. Maybe I better enjoy Saturn in my 6th right now! With Pluto working through my 8th, that’s more than enough on my plate.
At this rate, I may not get married till I’m in a retirement home!
I think you’ll like Saturn 7th better (lol some chutzpah of me to say that). Saturn in the 6th = health stuff gets you down. Saturn 7th, to me, feels more…. feels like you have more power. Invite me to your wedding in the old folks home, Anita π
Saturn is creeping up on my 7th House in the coming years. I’ve taken that to mean I’ll be asked to get serious about partnership and learn what it takes to make a long-term relationship last by doing my work and learning my lessons. After all the hard work I’ve done with Saturn transiting my 5th (and had to do again during Saturn Rx π ), I actually look for to the 7th House transit. I haven’t considered it might mean that I might lose a partner or have a marriage break up… but perhaps that I would be learn the real meaning of commitment and let go of the partnerships that don’t serve me. But broken marriage stuff is more Pluto energy to me… but is that Saturn too?
