Saturn Transit the 9th House: Learning Anything?
Commenting on the comments
shell asks on the Decoy Catholic blog:
“Do you find that many people go through a tough life-altering experience during a Saturn transit in the 9th house? I was just wondering because it seems many people turn to religion most especially when things like death, divorce, sickness, etc. happen? Or is it a natural transition from the 8th house to the 9th?”
Well, with Saturn transiting the 9th house you have to get serious and learn something I would say. Something that enhances your perspective. It could be religion but it could also be go back to school in general or study Vedic astrology or whatever else you can think of.
Whatever it is to be in my case, I am sure it will be made abundantly clear to me and also that it will be in my best interest seeing as Saturn is my ruling planet. Which is a theory of my sister’s by the way… I’ll turn that into another blog.
Anyone have Saturn transiting their 9th house? If so, are you studying anything?

Hmmm….I think I got serious about school again and re-enrolled during my Saturn in the 9th. I don’t know how to see transits (you know my ignorance-is-bliss policy!), but I’m 26 right now and at the time of my birth Saturn was in the 11th. If I do the math, I *think* Saturn was maybe leaving the 9th when I got back into school??
Oh wait, now that I think about it, I also started reading about Buhddism during this time because I was desperately searching for a way of spirituality other than what I had known, Catholicism (which wasn’t working out for me). Buhddist philosophies really helped me out during that time, and still does.
Oh wow….okay, I did go through a really rough time in what I think was Saturn transiting my 8th house. Really tough time. It was basically a death of everything I had known. And this was why I was searching for another way.
I think I just answered my own question
I Looooove this place. It makes me think.
Got Saturn going through my 9th right now and hit some huge road blocks with school. No signs of getting religion anytime soon, but I started getting serious about astrology early into the placement. This was after coming out of Saturn in Leo transiting my 8th, where I was going in and out of doctors’ offices and hospitals trying to find a doctor who could tell me what was wrong with my heart.
Currently, finances are strapped (got Cap on my 2nd) and I don’t have the monetary resources needed to go to school. I dropped out early this semester so I could get the tuition money back, and don’t know when I’ll be heading back in.
saturn in my 9th was my best/worst house transit so far. i had saturn in my 9th starting around a year after i graduated high school, from 2001 to 2003. i went from having a casual interest in astrology before that to seriously studying it on my own, in my own way. i wouldn’t look at it as some kind of religious relation because i’m so cynical, but the search for meaning/understanding/pattern was definitely there. saturn and pluto were opposite in aspect to my sun at the time of 9/11, and at the same time, like the public, i was having rude awakenings involving people at a distance. meanwhile, i was pressured into doing college which i didn’t think was for me at the time, ended up eventually registering for an astrology-related course… and naturally hated it. i didn’t finish because i didn’t see a point. by the time saturn left my 9th house, i didn’t want anything to do with school, astrology/ers, or “foreigners”. the month saturn went into my 10th house was pretty interesting in this respect.
but three saturn-transit houses later, i have to say it was all necessary, and i certainly learned a lot. i also did a LOT of writing at the time, and that’s been really useful.
When Saturn was going through my ninth (1990-1994) I was married for the very first time. One could say that my belief about self and life was somewhat adapted to suit my environment.
I worked as a stone mason then and I tried hard to fit into an ideal life. I thought I could adjust from a previous lifestyle. Well, I did however that was before Pluto hit my descendant. It was too much to bare, all that restriction in my perspective of life. My Moon in Aquarius is in ninth.
One thing to remember as Saturn transits through the Ninth, is that he is slowly culminating towards some measure of success at the tenth. I think for me, I was splashed over a couple of pages in the daily papers here, for my creative work when Saturn hit my 10th. I was divorced, had my freedom and got the rewards I was working towards (in the 9th) anyway. I started studying Astrology with committment at the end of the transit.

Saturn transiting my 9th right now. Got Pluto at the end of that house and Sag ruling the roost. So I’ve packed my bags and headed for distant philosophical/religious pastures. Actually, this transit is bringing me back to earlier interests (about 15-17 years ago) in astrology. Right now I’m deep into self-study, but I’m a total autodidact, so that’s natural. I wonder how this transit will end because I’m completely ready for a professional overhaul and need more autonomy in my career. I suspect astrology will play a role there.
I have Saturn transiting my 9th house and I am studying people and death in real life..
I have also been taking marketing classes.
that’s when i got hit by the need to buck and finish my bachelor’s already.
I had Saturn in the 9th in 2005-2007. My Jupiter is also there, so it was hard to avoid the need to rethink my philosophy of life. It was a very painful period for me but ultimately edifying, teaching me that the pursuit of happiness (Leo rules 9th) is important, which my Saturnine nature tends to forget. I also picked up my serious interest in astrology at that time.
I am a nutjob. Straight up… Got my Saturn in Virgo like everyone else. Geesh!
I blame the antihistimine I took this morning.
Saturn’s going through my ninth house right now…Let’s see, I’m going through the Artist’s Way program by Julia Cameron (I have Saturn in Leo, 8th house natally–creative reinvention of self?). Money’s been an issue the last few years. Can’t afford to go and finish my bachelor’s degree. I feel like I’ve been preparing for a new chapter in my life, too–I’ve been paring down my belongings…anything that doesn’t serve the person I am and the direction I’m going is out. I don’t know if I’m getting ready for a do-over or not (Pluto crossed my Ascendant last year for the last time and is now in my first house). My birth dad re-entered my life after more than two decades (this has really caused me to rethink my relationship with him and my view of things). I have Mercury and Venus in the ninth house…can’t wait for Saturn to hit them in the next year. That should be interesting.
