Yesterday on the blog I was talking about a friend who called me “uptight.”
This remark (and a couple others) hurt my feelings and I’m still thinking about it this morning and still thinking about Saturn through my 3rd House.
Being serious saves. It is who I am anyway, but also sounds like Saturn beginning his transit in my 3rd House. I feel it already. And what I mean by “saves” is that…. a serious mind is not always the sign of something wrong. Or of depression. It’s deep. Saturn in Scorpio is unparalleled deep and in the 3rd House? Like watching a Bergman movie marathon 🙂 There is humor in the dark but it’s not cartoonish or over the top or looking for a laugh. It’s born of the situation. The serious ones need to be brave. We’re in the minority.
I’m getting a clearer vision of what I’m in for the next 3 years (writing writing writing writing) and my job (and your job) is to apply this energy. It WILL work. Saturn will trine my water and sextile my earth and square my love life (sigh). Make use of the energy. Not to wallow. Because it will feel swampy murky THICK at times and we’ll need that Saturn structure and limitation to curb our imaginations. Where’s Saturn in Scorpio for you?
This transit, actually, is good for those who struggle with regulating their emotions or who also will have Saturn transit their 3rd House. You’ll be working with the mind like never before.

Hi,
I was also born with Saturn in 3rd house in Scorpio. Yes, the “big guy” is conjunct my Natal “big guy” and I’m already feeling the effects of the Return (it will happen more specifically in February 2014).
What is happening? Disagreements with my sister (my only sibling), new neighbors. I feel my mind balances between extreme velocity and slowness but, in general, I think now I take decisions more quickly and with less indecision. I’m also improving my verbal communication skills, it’s becoming easier for me to express my ideas and make a point.
Cheers!
Cheers, Agnes xo Thank you for your thoughts!
You’re welcome 🙂 Just wanted to share my experience. Thanks for sharing yours! I only realized that this article was from 2012 after posting my comment. But I guess you’re still “under the storm”. Congratulations for your site!
my saturn and scorpio are naturally in my 5th house. and i just realized that my saturn IS in scorpio. oh crap ITS MY 1st SATURN RETURN! :o!!
Yep saturn in 3rd. I feel very serious and mostly misunderstood. I want to wallow. It’s comfortable for now. Everything else feels like it’s trying too hard to be something that doesn’t make any sense for me so I want to just sit in the solemn silence for a while. Perhaps if I cover myself in it, I can get on with more serious pursuits without the distractions I usually have.
Hmm good point. Feeling misunderstood, yup! Already!
Saturn will soon enter my 1st house.
It’s also in my 3rd. I feel my communication restricted majorly, but it’s helping my actual writing work a great deal.
ha! One of my last conscious thoughts before sleeping last night was ‘must watch that unopened Bergman box-set.’ Today i can’t think of anything worse. Possibly because i have been re-reading Liz Greene’s eerily precise descriptions of my life story in her pages on natal Sun conjunction Saturn. Powerful to re-read, but overwhelming. Matthew x
