Saturn Through the Houses of the Natal Chart








Edited by Gemma



Saturn is a planet who with a dichotomous nature, because on the one hand he can indicate stability, responsibility and a grounded sense of reality whereas on the other he can indicate frustrations, restrictions, lack of confidence and fears.

Where Saturn is in your natal chart by way of house placement can give a good idea about which area of life the energies of Saturn are playing into for you. However, whether Saturn is providing help or hindrance very much depends on Saturn’s placement by sign and the aspects he makes to other planets amongst other factors.

In this article, I will outline some of the basic meanings of Saturn in the natal chart of all of the twelve houses.

Saturn in the First House

Saturn in the first house can indicate an overall sober or conservative approach to life. A person with this placement may naturally take on a sense of responsibility when embarking on new ventures or taking on a new approach, which are usually thought through very carefully before proceeding.

Saturn in the Second House

Saturn in the second house has been traditionally thought to be restrictive on a native’s finances throughout their life. However, this isn’t always the case at all. Someone with this placement may learn over time to amass a great fortune, but may find this enthusiasm from a fear of being poor.

Saturn in the Third House

Those with Saturn in the third house may find it difficult to speak their truths or express themselves verbally throughout life. However, over time, they may also find that their constructive, persevering and hard-working approach to research and learning means they can overcome this with effort, finding their voice later in life.

Saturn in the Fourth House

Those with Saturn in the fourth house may have had one or two parents who were strict throughout their childhood, meaning that a sense of nurturing was somewhat difficult to find. However, home life was and is more than likely very stable, being a place they can rely on during the toughest of times.

Saturn in the Fifth House

The fifth house is the house of fun and creativity, therefore those with this placement may have found excitement and adventure difficult to come by at various stages throughout life. They may also feel a sense of insecurity when it comes to sharing their creative works of art. However, these are often some of the hardest working people, often taking them a long way in life.

Saturn in the Sixth House

Saturn is quite comfortable in the sixth house and often means that the native has a great appreciation for structure and routine both in their daily living environments and their working lives. These natives often feel a great responsibility towards work. They may also be very kind and helpful towards those closest to them, enjoying caring for people in little practical ways.

Saturn in the Seventh House

For those with Saturn in the seventh house, relationships (especially romantic ones) may be seen through a lens of reality. It is unlikely you will pull the wool over their eyes. They may also need and respect only stable relationships with long-lasting potential and security that they can find personal value that can grow.

Saturn in the Eighth House

People with Saturn in the eighth house may find that they have a fear of fear itself, the deep psyche or the unknown. They may feel uncomfortable with topics which are considered dark or taboo. However, they may also be some of the toughest of people you meet, with strong boundaries and a ‘can do’ approach that takes them far in life.

Saturn in the Ninth House

With Saturn in the ninth house, a native may have experienced some restrictions in their life as a direct result of a faith or religion they have followed, either as a result of choice or upbringing. On the other hand, this placement could also indicate a lack of belief when it comes to faith in spirituality and religion.

Saturn in the Tenth House

Saturn is well placed in the tenth house, as it’s the house naturally ruled by Saturn. With this placement, a person’s career is likely to receive a boost due to the native’s sense of responsibility and respect towards this area of life. A person is likely to build their career up from strength to strength over a long period of time with the helof Saturn here.

Saturn in the Eleventh House

Saturn in the eleventh house natives are likely to take a solid and reliable approach to friendships, therefore they may make good people to have in your life that you can rely on. They may also like to get stuck into community projects with a constructive approach that is helpful to others.

Saturn in the Twelfth House

Saturn in the twelfth house natives may find throughout their lives that order and structure tends to bring confusion to them or they may feel at a loss when faced with many responsibilities. Regarding spiritual development, they may find they can grow particularly well with practical disciplines such as yoga or Thai Chi.
