Its retrograde period is influential, helping us reassess our choices and reflect on our past actions. Once a year, Saturn enters a retrograde phase for approximately four-and-a-half months. In 2024, the Saturn retrograde began on June 29. Firstly, let’s understand the term “retrograde”. Retrograde is an apparent shift in the movement of a planet through the sky. It happens when a planet seems to be moving backwards from our point of view.[/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=”#1e1e1e” divider_position=”center” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_module=”8919″ global_colors_info=”{}”][/et_pb_divider][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.24.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.24.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.3″ _module_preset=”default” header_2_font_size=”28px” global_colors_info=”{}”]
What Is Saturn Retrograde And How Long Does It Last?
This retrograde, which started on June 29, will last until November 15 in the water sign of Pisces. Although it is an optical illusion, it is said that this astrological transit will have a significant influence on Earth, indicating a period of introspection and the necessity to tackle responsibilities.
Saturn is known to be a tough teacher at times, however, it only pushes us to the extent that we are capable of handling. It is less concerned with external events and prioritizes inner growth and development.
During this retrograde, it is important not to feel stuck or discouraged if things progress slowly. This is the perfect time to evaluate our lives, reflect on our past actions, avoid hasty decisions and decide how we want to live.

What Happens During Saturn Retrograde?
Saturn’s influence is often described as a gradual process that spans several months, involving persistent inner work that many find burdensome and challenging. It won’t be wrong if we say “RE” in retrogrades involve reviewing, remembering, reevaluating, redesigning, reconsidering and reconstructing.
This retrograde might help you restore your wasted years by aligning you with your true soul frequency. Manifesting destined relationships and healing generational trauma. It helps clear your old karma and leave people who are not on the same frequency, and meet new or destined people who match your frequency.
