Saturn in Capricorn and the Applying Saturn-Pluto Conjunction in 2019

What follows is a patron article on the Saturn in Capricorn transit that was first released to Willow's Web Astrology patrons on July 7, 2017.

I'm publishing this article on the public blog today (with the Sun and Saturn in a New Year's Day conjunction at 11 degrees Capricorn ahead of a January 5 New Moon at 15 degrees Capricorn (5:28 p.m. PST) conjunct Pluto) because the themes are highly relevant as Saturn transits Capricorn in an applying conjunction to Pluto throughout 2019.

Many of the simmering themes of the Pluto in Capricorn transit that I've been writing about over the past 11 years (80 articles and counting!) will be coming to a head as the Saturn-Pluto conjunction tightens. In light of this, I offer my work here (slightly updated for this re-publishing) as a navigational tool for any challenges up ahead. Being prepared with strong astrological back-up is a key for success in 2019 and always, and you will find no stronger astrological back-up for these challenging times than at Willow's Web Astrology!

Thank-you to all Willow's Web Astrology patrons for supporting me to do this type of in-depth astrological work and writing. It would not be possible otherwise.

 Saturn in Capricorn: An Astrological Overview for Long-Term Strategic Planning

By Willow of Willow's Web Astrology

 - Saturn in Capricorn December 21, 2017 - December 17, 2020

- Chiron in Aries April 16, 2018 - April 14, 2027

- Uranus in Taurus May 15, 2018 - April 26, 2026

- Saturn conjunct Pluto at 22 degrees Capricorn January 12, 2020

- Jupiter conjunct Saturn at zero degrees Aquarius December 21, 2020

Saturn entered its own sign of Capricorn on December 21, 2017, and as it did, it formed a potent conjunction to the Sun at zero degrees Capricorn, marking solstice. This was followed by a stellium of bodies in Capricorn that stretched from late December 2017 through the end of January 2018. This stellium was at its peak at the time of the 26-degree Capricorn New Moon on January 16, 2018 when six bodies were transiting the sign - Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Saturn, and Pluto, along with Black Moon Lilith.
