In Vedic Astrology, Saturn's aspect is often more powerful than its placement. Saturn forces you to be disciplined. Wherever it looks, it demands Humility, Patience, and Truth. If you violate these, the karmic backlash is instant.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if Saturn aspects the Sun?
