Saturn has been in the Earth sign Capricorn for the last couple of years, from December 19th 2017 to December 17th 2020. This means that anyone born between February 13th, 1988, and February 6th, 1991, has successfully navigated their first Saturn Return.

What years is Saturn in Capricorn?
Your birth chart depicts the astrological configuration of the heavens at the time of your birth in astrology. Saturn in Capricorn, which occurs only every 28-30 years, will be that configuration for a select few. Saturn’s most recent Capricorn dates are as follows:
The planet Saturn was in Capricorn, the last of the terrestrial signs, during these times. Saturn is the ruler of Capricorn, making this a potent combination. According to astrology, persons born under this sign have ambition and a desire to make a name for themselves. Qualities like prudence, persistence, and authority are also reinforced and strengthened by the combination.
When did Saturn last Capricorn Vedic?
When does Saturn enter Capricorn and when does it leave? On January 23, 2020, at roughly 22:27 hours, Saturn will leave the zodiac sign of Sagittarius and transit into its own sign of Capricorn. Between May 10, 2020, and September 29, 2020, it will be in retrograde motion. The journey will go until April 28, 2022.
Is Saturn always in Capricorn?
Saturn takes between 28 and 30 years to travel through all twelve zodiac signs, and it stays in each sign for about three years. Saturn has been traveling through Sagittarius, the constellation of exploration, philosophy, and spirituality, since 2014. We’ve seen a boom in industry-transforming technologies (think Uber and Lyft), significant transformations in the media business, and growing interest in astrology and occultism over the last three years (my personal favorite consequence of Saturn in Sagittarius). Saturn, on the other hand, has a darker side (the planet is known as “The Great Malefic” in astrospeak). During Saturn’s transit through Sagittarius, debates over national borders and immigration raged, as the planet of restriction clashed with Sagittarius’ free-spirited ideas.
Saturn left Sagittarius on December 19 and went into the Capricorn constellation, where it will stay for the next three years. (Saturn will enter Aquarius for a brief period from March to July 2020, but its Capricorn cycle will end on December 17, 2020.) Saturn is the natural ruler of Capricorn, so its return serves as a cosmic reunion. Saturn is content in its like-minded Capricorn home, despite the fact that the stern planet prefers not to show it. The patriarchy, economy, government, and big business are all ruled by Saturn and Capricorn, therefore we should expect huge changes in our institutional structures during the next three years.
