If you experienced major setbacks, however, you might have had to start all over again, struggling to regain your lost stability.

Saturn is well known for delaying success, but it also rewards long-term planning and a serious routine.

Accept the good news that these planets bring, for the cosmic energy is working with you this year and not against you.

If possible, make your most important decisions around these times.
