Best Position of Saturn

Now, the million dollar question. Which is the best position of Saturn?

If we are understanding position where Saturn will give beneficial results or so-called "good results", then I am afraid it is none.

To understand this, we need to understand the bi-polar nature of life. Everything in life has its polar opposite. Happiness Vs Sadness, Joy Vs Sorrow, Prosperity Vs Poverty, Light Vs Darkness etc.

Now, Venus represents luxuries, conveniences and wealth. Hence, its polar opposite has to be there and that is Saturn which represents challenges, inconveniences, hardships and miseries. These are Saturn's characteristics. No matter where it is placed in chart, it will represent these very things. Just like, no matter where Venus is placed in chart, it shows from where you can get your wealth and conveniences.

Now, I usually get asked that why Saturn represents hardships in each of its position? Well, why you never asked as to why Venus represents Wealth in each of its position? 

So, Saturn is basically our challenges in life. Wherever it is placed that's where we will face biggest challenges in life and as Saturn's movement is slowest, consider it as life long challenges. Like -

Saturn in 1st house or Aries can bring challenges about finding our individuality or own unique path. 

Saturn in 2nd house or Taurus can bring challenges related to family, wealth and security. 

Saturn in 3rd house or Gemini can bring challenges related with siblings or running our business. 

Saturn in 4th house or Cancer can bring challenges related with home life or mother. 

Saturn in 5th house or Leo can bring challenges related with love/romance, children, education or creativity. 

Saturn in 6th house or Virgo can bring challenges related with work place, health, conflicts or litigation. 

Saturn in 7th house or Libra can bring challenges related with relationship or business. 

Saturn in 8th house or Scorpio can bring challenges related with dealing with constant major changes in life. 

Saturn in 9th house or Sagittarius can bring challenges in matters of Education, Higher Learning or dealing with Teachers.

Saturn in 10th house or Capricorn can bring challenges related with Career or Father. 

Saturn in 11th house or Aquarius can bring challenges related with income, gains, desires and finding the higher cause. 

Saturn in 12th house or Pisces can bring challenges related with person's spiritual evolution.

So, we can understand why Saturn is Lord of Justice? Because it is same everywhere. In a way, it is easiest to interpret Saturn because it will remain same everywhere. It can become more challenging in debilitation (Aries) or in enemy signs of Leo or Scorpio but it can never be all good or beneficial by nature as most of us desire it to be.

So, no matter how much someone is trying to sugar-coat Saturn, it will remain the biggest challenge of our life and one day or the other or in one life or the other, we have to face it. So, it is better to open our eyes to reality and face Saturn as soon as possible.

Now, the benefits of Saturn. Saturn is the one which makes us realize our true potential. It presents blocks or obstacles in front of us, so that we can accept those blocks as challenges and over power them. That will make us realize our potential in life. Whenever we achieve something in life, we become happy? Now, is that happiness really connected with that achievement or it is connected with those obstacles which you over powered on the way to achievement? I feel it is the latter.

Also, I always say during consultation that we should take the list of top 10 people in any field and we will find that they all followed their Saturn, i.e. they picked one work and did it whole life so much so that they became perfect at it. So, this is what Saturn wants everyone to do. To continuously put so much efforts in something that you become perfect at it. There is no shortcut with Saturn. We say that after 35 years of age, Saturn matures. Actually, after 35 we mature. We realize that we can't escape Saturn. We start surrendering to Saturn. In many cases, person had already done all hard work till 35, so after 35 he reaps the results. So, it is not that Saturn has become mild after 35 but we have bowed down to Saturn. And honestly, we have no other option.

Hope this helps. Thanks,
