Saturn in the signs - Aries

Under attack - self-preservation through aggression 

Saturn is debilitated in Aries as personal limits and barriers are frequently felt. This Saturn can come across as more aggressive than intended and can unintentionally hurt others due to a certain lack of sensitivity. The reaction the Aries-Saturn then gets can give him the impression that the whole world is against him. Paradoxically, someone with Saturn in Aries is the also less able to take what’s rightly and lawfully theirs out of fear of causing further outrage due to their sometimes exaggerated behaviour, insisting they are right. 

One consequence is increased tension, stress and dissatisfaction as the Aries-Saturn keeps having to justify its behaviour continuously. This can also manifest in a physical manner through migraines or grinding teeth. The Saturn in Aries fears that if he gives up too much of himself selflessly, he may never get what he really wants. 

The unaware Saturn-Aries resists everything that this youthful signs stands for – youth, impulse, spontaneity, pioneering spirit, feeling constantly under attack and anxious. Physical exercise is quite crucial for the Saturn in Aries to help relax. 

The key for this Saturn is to learn (patiently) to get what he wants and assert his intentions without aggression or even violence and most importantly without aiming solely for personal benefit.
