So in honour of Saturn on my ascendant I’ve gone all Virgo rising and am enjoying some obsessive data collation. This list shows details of the current Saturn-Uranus cycle and the two previous ones.
The last time Saturn opposed Uranus from Virgo was 1919-1920. This time Saturn is conjunct the new dwarf planet Makemake (conjunction exact on September 20th), and the opposition is squaring the Galactic Center [not Ixion, which I said in error earlier].
1897: Conjunction – Scorpio
Saturn conjoins Uranus in Scorpio three times (25-27 degrees).
Exact on January 6th, June 1st and September 9th.
1909 – 1910: Square – Aries / Capricorn
Saturn in Aries squares Uranus in Capricorn three times (17-25 degrees).
Exact on June 7th 1909, November 8th 1909, April 7th 1910.
1918 – 1920: Opposition – Leo / Aquarius then Virgo / Pisces
Saturn in Leo opposed Uranus in Aquarius twice (24-26 degrees); exact on October 1st 1918 and January 25th 1919.
Uranus entered Pisces on April 1st 1919 and Saturn entered Virgo on August 12th 1919.
Saturn in Virgo then opposed Uranus in Pisces twice (0-4 degrees); exact on August 13th 1919 and April 27th 1920. The first opposition was at 0+ Virgo-Pisces the day after Saturn entered Virgo and three days before Uranus retrograded back into Aquarius.
