Saturn began its transit of Aries in 2025, but it retreated into Pisces again. This transition from Pisces to Aries is complete on February 13th, 2026.
What are the dates for Saturn in Aries?
- Saturn is in Aries from May 24, 2025, to September 1, 2025,
- and then from February 13, 2026, to Apr 12, 2028.
Saturn dipped its toes in the first sign of the zodiac, Aries, in 2025 (it didn’t quite but almost made it to 2 degrees Aries), and we were introduced to this transit’s unique effects.
In 2026, Saturn enters Aries on February 13th, and it doesn’t look back. Saturn will continue its transit of Aries until April 12th, 2028.
While Saturn is in Aries, we may initially experience frustration when pursuing our individual goals. We can feel uncomfortable with big shows of individuality or me-centered behavior.
However, this period also presents a unique opportunity for personal growth, as is always the case with Saturn. As we learn to balance our individual needs with collective responsibilities, we can overcome this discomfort. By recognizing the necessity for this balanced attention, we can expand our potential for personal development. Otherwise, we might inadvertently limit ourselves.

In recent years, there has been much attention to the self. Aries energies have been revered and celebrated. Saturn in Aries aims to moderate this focus where it’s been excessive. We become more critical of this celebration, noting where a “me-first” attitude or “express your true self” at all costs has worked against us.
Saturn in Aries cringes at excessive self-importance, in fact. However, it may go too far in that direction when the goal should be to correct where things have been immoderate or imbalanced and excessive. Ideally, we’re striving for healthy, balanced levels of self-sacrifice.
