Saturn in Sagittarius: How It Impacts Your Personality and Life

The position of Saturn in your natal chart reveals how you deal with rules, responsibilities and limitations.

Saturn in Sagittarius

Those born with Saturn in Sagittarius in their natal chart go through an interesting transformation in their life and once they find their best self, they become truly humanitarian with brilliant plans for the future, a future where all humans live happily under the strict supervision of imposed rules and regulations.

But these laws are equitable, balanced, and no one receives any preferential treatment. This is because these natives are principled, just, and have a very knowledgeable nature. On top of all this, they refuse to bend themselves to irrationality or to initiate any sort of project that has no reasonable chance to succeed.

Saturn in Sagittarius in a nutshell:

  • Style: Truthful and exploring;
  • Top qualities: Direct, knowledgeable and justitiary;
  • Challenges: Tactless and prone to anger outburts;
  • Advice: Remember that mind beats intuition when it comes to risk;
  • Celebrities: Madonna, Lady Gaga, Mahatma Gandhi, Prince, Grace Kelly.

Whatever doesn’t ascribe to their scientific mindset, what can’t be proven to exist in this material plane has no bearing on their decisions, but they still can sometimes exaggerate in many regards.

Personality traits

To begin with, there is one main aspect of this native that makes Saturn’s influence that much effective. This individual is a natural pragmatist who plans for every small detail in advance.

They may not be the most imaginative of natives, but whatever they think of, they can probably materialize it, even ideas that could be cataloged as purely idealistic.

Thus, Saturn is the catalyst that empowers their steady-minded abilities, acting as a form of focusing crystal, a lens that maximizes their potential tenfold.

Their main interests are humanistic in general, ranging from theology to philosophy and psychology. Moreover, through all this continuous study, they have long since formed a set of rigorous principles that they can no longer abandon.

They believe that man ennobles oneself through constant learning, through effort put towards the achievement of a goal, the most exquisite of them all, gaining knowledge.

Unfortunately, they aren’t very open-minded in some respects, where existential questions are concerned because they are firm with their stance and aren’t very liable to change their opinions unless proper proof is presented.

Also on this line, they tend to overlook the beauty of the world, the simplistic pleasures, emotional ones mainly, that nature offers each day.

Because they are filled with rational thoughts and only ever look on the outside with a reasonable and logical perspective, it comes as quite difficult for them to appreciate the little things.

They are naturally more suspicious of other ideas and of different opinions, which they don’t trust until a later point. Even with people, they aren’t going to open up until they’ve fully determined that they are trustworthy people.

Socially, they are desirous, but unfortunately, they also lack empathy, that intuition of reading emotions, situations, the know-how necessary to get the hang of social interactions. Saturn’s rules are sweetened a bit, getting looser and looser with the Sagittarian’s naturally joyous personality.

Behavior in love

This astrological make-up makes this native crave for novelty, for trying out new things, and for experiencing new avenues of pleasure. However, this contradicts their conservatism, their firm resolve, and rigid principles.

The rationality inside of them yells danger whenever something untested and unproved presents itself as being important. This can ruin a lot of moments with their partner, in fact.

You aren’t afraid at all to say exactly what you’re thinking because that would defy the expectations one would have about serious relationships.

If you can’t even be honest with your partner, what’s the use of having one? Most probably, the other person will be someone with the exact same type of character and won’t get offended easily.

At the same time, the Saturnian Sagittarius is intrigued when their partner is a source of constant mystery, an unexplored land worth discovering.

This makes it clear why most natives with this transit in their chart fall in love with foreigners, or people with radically different perspectives overall.

The good and the bad

They are intellectuals above all else, using their rational mindset to analyze every little detail of all the things they come across, and extracting all the knowledge hidden within.

This curiosity and thorough attitude makes them so efficient and productive, as well as keeps them well above others in terms of personal prowess.

Of course, all this intellectual sprinting requires a good environment to be fostered in, and in their case, it must be organized, with a known structure and everything in perfect order.

Sure, once they settle in this kind of environment, it’s hard to leave it again, so their partner will usually have to take this upon them.

The Saturnian Sagittarius are, most importantly, the adventurers of the zodiac, ever looking for the next opportunity to satisfy their inner cravings, the urge to feel the adrenaline coursing through their veins.

Seeking this refuge from the tediousness of the world, they will shatter every single obstacle in their path, break apart the shackles of societal regulations, and follow their singular goal until they succeed in attaining it.

Even if they come across difficult situations that seem to go beyond their abilities, they can clearly adapt, evolve and overcome them.

Moreover, even this mentality to begin with, that they are good enough to survive anything will change with time, transforming into precaution, patience, predictive instincts.

The way these natives do their research is simple. They tend to push anything aside and focus solely on that one topic until it’s taken care of.

They exhaust all the information at their disposal, reading it again and again, analyzing it fully, in the meantime giving off the vibes of a robot, cold and calculated who only does what it’s been ordered to.

The Saturn in Sagittarius man

Being very gentle and reliable individuals who do well in straining situations, and are very resistant to stress, these men would make for one hell of a husband material.

Moreover, they can be extremely loving and affectionate to those they deem worthy. They are household people, meaning that they could very well settle at home and take care of the house because they want you to take some time for yourself, to enjoy a little solo time.

And, again, with their self-imposed rules and principles, these natives have a very defined plan for the future, one they will pursue relentlessly, and they want you to be a part of it.

The Saturn in Sagittarius woman

Saturnian Sagittarius women are very generous individuals who do everything they can to help those in need.

They’ll either help the poor, volunteer at a center for disabled people or be an activist in some help group for children in need.

As usual, Saturn makes sure that they never react impulsively, and with the self-imposed rules it brings, they will approach every situation with calm and caution.

Friends will find her to be a reliable companion who won’t run away at the first sign of danger. Moreover, they are also physically attractive, very much so any man would find her to be irresistibly alluring.

Morally, these ladies are responsible, courageous, daring, and know exactly what they want from their lives.
