This post contains a list of dates that tell you when you will have your Saturn return, depending on which sign of the zodiac Saturn was in when you were born.
We define the Saturn return as the period in a person’s life that begins when the planet Saturn returns back to the zodiacal sign that it was in at the moment of their birth, and ends when Saturn departs from that sign about 2-3 years later.
There is sometimes a particularly intense period or pivotal turning point that occurs around when Saturn returns back to the exact degree of the zodiacal sign that it was in when you were born, but usually this is part of a broader process that plays out for the entire duration of Saturn returning to and transiting through its natal sign.
In order to use this table you need to know what sign Saturn was located in when you were born. In order to do this you need to get a copy of your birth chart, which lists the exact positions of all of the planets at the moment of your birth. There are some instructions for doing this in my earlier post on calculating the Saturn return.
Once you have figured out what sign your natal Saturn is located in you can use the table below to determine when your Saturn return will take place. So, for example, if your natal Saturn is in Virgo, then your Saturn return occurred between September 2, 2007 and July 21, 2010. If your natal Saturn is in Capricorn, then your Saturn return will occur between December 19, 2017 and December 16, 2020.
