People say that ''Everyone has a cross to bear''. This means that fate challenges us with various trials. And since this is our fate, we cannot avoid them. However, in order not to direct your mind in a negative direction, I would like to say that even fame, wealth, and popularity are a type of challenge from fate. I will not enumerate how many famous people have failed to overcome challenges and the burden of glory and ended their life somewhat prematurely and tragically.
Today's article is about what our own "cross" consists of, what burden we have to bear and why we are "punished" (in quotation marks, since people perceive every burden and problem as punishment). And this is not without reason. I will make the analogy of Jesus, who bore his heavy cross alone on his back, knowing that he would die on it. In Catholic churches, there are 14 paintings which describe the so-called Path to the Cross. These scenes are comparable to a person’s life - from the beginning to the end. They imply how the heaviest burden we bear throughout our life eventually appears to be our most precious achievement and how the problems which we humbly endure are the core of our biggest success. And no matter whether this success is public or not - it is the most important to us.
In astrology, Saturn occupies an honourable position when it comes to the hard side of life. Saturn’s position in the personal horoscope and everything related to this planet shows our trials, fears, burdens and restrictions. Last but not least – we are always alone in such situations and can rely only on God's help! On the other hand, precisely Saturn is an integral part of our greatest achievements.
Saturn is known as the planet of fate. It rules time and "takes care" of the consequences of all our actions - when we take the wrong path, we should endure our punishment and when we fulfil our duty, we should be rewarded. Saturn indicates when it is inevitable to face trials and restrictions, but also when it is inevitable to achieve our highest peaks in life. In popular astrology, it is often called the "villain and culprit," since Saturn "shows us" absolutely uncompromisingly the heavy cross which we have to bear alone in order to get the "unfading crown".
Our personal "cross" is determined primarily by the position of Saturn in the horoscope according to the house, as well as according to the houses to which it is related. Usually, these are the things which we do not like at all and try to avoid, since we are afraid of them and we do not want to take responsibility. But these are actually the things thanks to which we can get the greatest rewards, rise above the rest, and gain respect and consideration. Only because of them we can we experience the sense of fulfilment, since we have achieved success.
The house which falls in Capricorn ranks second. Capricorn is the sign which is ruled by Saturn. This house also has a direct relation to things we cannot escape and we have to bear the "cross" humbly until one day we get surprised by the fact that precisely these things provide us with great stability and considerable success.
I will give you information on the position of Saturn in the horoscope. However, since the house which falls in Capricorn in your personal horoscope is also important, I will systematize both. For example, if your Ascendant is in Aries, the 10th house falls in Capricorn. And Saturn may fall in the 3rd house. In that case, look for the description about:
1. ''Ascendant in Aries or Saturn in the 10th house'' – since your Ascendant is in Aries.
2. ''Ascendant in Scorpio or Saturn in the 3rd house'' – since Saturn is in the 3rd house in your personal horoscope.
In order to find out where Saturn falls in your personal horoscope, find out in which sign it fell in your year of birth and count from the sign in which your Ascendant falls. For example, if you were born in 1981, Saturn fell in Libra. If your Ascendant falls in Virgo, Saturn falls in the 2nd house (Virgo - 1st house, Libra - 2nd house).

Ascendant in Aries or Saturn in the 10th house
Saturn in the 10th house or as ruler of the 10th house in the horoscope implies that your biggest trials are associated with your public position, status and career. You encounter enormous burdesn and adversity in terms of your relationship with your father, as well as with any authoritative, governmental and administrative figures. Success and recognition of the community, as well as power and leadership positions are very important to you. However, you will not achieve them until you learn how to be patient, disciplined and responsible. Or even if they come early, they will not stay in your life for long. Fate brings you serious problems and limitations associated with your reputation and position in society, as well as with your professional development. However, sooner or later, you achieve the success and high profile public position you aspire after.
Ascendant in Taurus or Saturn in the 9th house
Saturn in the 9th house or as ruler of the 9th house in the horoscope implies that your biggest trials are associated with your breadth of view, education, and finding the ideal vocation in life, as well as with your doubt in everything and everyone. You experience huge burdens, obstacles and constraints in terms of your relationships with teachers of all kinds, foreigners and travelling abroad. You obtain knowledge and wisdom in life with hard work and without any help. Fate brings you challenges related to trusting people and getting life advice and guidance. You always lack somebody who could guide you in difficulties and teach you and show you the right path to confidence and optimism. Therefore, you eventually become such a person for everyone else.
Ascendant in Gemini or Saturn in the 8th house
Saturn in the 8th house or as ruler of the 8th house in the horoscope implies that your biggest trials are associated with access to foreign resources, foreign finance, inheritances, loans, debts, and events associated with the fine line between life and death. You experience huge obstacles and adversity in relation to banking and tax institutions, investments and work with large capital, as well as in relation to all financial (and sexual) partnerships. Fate brings you serious challenges associated with sudden life twists, as well as with the burden of responsibility for someone else's property. Life presents you with more severe life crises, in which you are always alone. However, it is precisely this that eventually makes you highly tenacious and irreplaceable for others in difficult times - as if you draw strength from the invisible world and the prize is longevity.
Ascendant in Cancer or Saturn in the 7th house
Saturn in the 7th house or as ruler of the 7th house in the horoscope implies that your biggest trials are associated with your partnerships in life, relationships with others, marriage and marital commitments, as well as with difficult and lengthy litigations. You encounter enormous burdens, barriers and constraints in terms of finding a spouse in life, as well as in terms of living with him or her afterwards. Fate brings you heavy responsibilities and adversity in terms of communication with people, your ability to connect with them and create long-term and stable relations. Eventually, you become a person whom everyone would like to have as a partner and life surrounds you with loyal and dedicated people.
Ascendant in Leo or Saturn in the 6th house
Saturn in the 6th house or as ruler of the 6th house in the horoscope implies that your biggest trials are associated with your ability to fight in life, overcome obstacles and remove all kinds of "enemies" – people, diseases, rivals, competitors, etc. You encounter enormous burdens and restrictions in terms of your relations with colleagues, officials and work team, as well as in terms of keeping yourself in good physical condition, since your health often suffers. Fate brings you many detractors and you have the feeling that the whole world is against you. Fate also challenges your ability to be disciplined and ordered, as well as to work tirelessly and bring order to chaos. However, it is precisely this that makes you extremely efficient and productive, as well as able to handle any type of competition and win any battles.
Ascendant in Virgo or Saturn in the 5th house
Saturn in the 5th house or as ruler of the 5th house in the horoscope implies that your biggest trials are unfortunately associated with the most beautiful area of life – love and children, as well as with your creative abilities and sense of fun and happiness. I would like to immediately point out that fate does not deprive you of all this. Otherwise, you would not be able to cope with its trials. Life brings you serious responsibilities and adversity in terms of your loved ones, in the search of love and happiness, as well as in terms of your children - your relationships with them are often complex and you have to solve serious life problems related to them. However, precisely this makes you ultimately one of the best teachers, educators, parents, some of the best creators and people who best understand where happiness and love "grow".
Ascendant in Libra or Saturn in the 4th house
Saturn in the 4th house or as ruler of the 4th house in the horoscope implies that your biggest trials are associated with your home, family, kinship ties and residence. You encounter enormous burdesn and restrictions in terms of your relations primarily with your mother, as well as in terms of finding your inner comfort and a place to call home. Fate brings you serious problems and hardships related to property and family traditions. You have a heavy responsibility to keep your family heritage, take care of your parents and stay connected to your birthplace, as well as in terms of building a home and keeping it. All this eventually makes you a person who manages to create a large family and find internal comfort in old age.
Ascendant in Scorpio or Saturn in the 3rd house
Saturn in the 3rd house or as ruler of the 3rd house in the horoscope implies that your biggest trials are associated with your ability to communicate and express yourself both verbally and in writing, receive and impart information and learn, as well as to be proactive, enterprising and courageous. You encounter enormous burdens and restrictions in terms of your relations with siblings, neighbours and associates. Fate brings you serious problems and trials in connection with the development of your ability to work and fit in your environment and not to feel isolated and lonely. Eventually, you become one of the best communicators, speakers, as well as highly educated and enterprising people, surrounded by good followers.
Ascendant in Sagittarius or Saturn in the 2nd house
Saturn in the 2nd house or as ruler of the 2nd house in the horoscope implies that your biggest trials are associated with material and financial resources and your ability to survive without anyone's support. You encounter enormous burdens, obstacles and problems with your own value system in the first place and, as a consequence, with any financial and material matters. Life puts you in situations in which you realize the value of money and their meaning best and learn how to be responsible and disciplined in all financial matters - how to make money and how to spend it, how to survive and obtain the necessary minimum and appreciate the help of people who support you. Therefore, over time, you become very good financial "acrobats" and learn how to make very good deals and accumulate resources.
Ascendant in Capricorn or Saturn in the 1st house
Saturn in the 1st house or as ruler of the 1st house in the horoscope implies that your biggest trials are associated with yourself. You encounter enormous burdens, obstacles and problems in terms of yourself in the first place – your own individuality and personality and in terms of building up your ego. You have an incredible desire to be important, visible and bright. However, fate brings you severe hardships before you achieve this – it "tests" your ability to take responsibility in life in general, to be realistic, develop personal confidence and stability and "crush" your ego. Therefore, over time, you become significant and bright people and as if the whole world tends to rely on your ability to deal with anything.
Ascendant in Aquarius or Saturn in the 12th house
Saturn in the 12th house or as ruler of the 12th house in the horoscope implies that your biggest trials are associated with your self-destruction tendency and the ways in which you overcome fears and learn how to show compassion and charity and find peace and comfort in a secluded lifestyle. You encounter obstacles and problems in the physical and material world – because of poorer health, life in a strange place, a collision with the special people of society (the disabled, people with severe social problems, etc.) or activities which require isolation. Fate brings you trials related to learning how to find comfort and peace in solitude and silence, cherish spiritual quests, and travel the world, both symbolically and literally. Therefore, over time, you become one of the most spiritually conscious people, good psychologists, religious and social leaders, as well as the most important people in large charitable foundations and organizations.
Ascendant in Pisces or Saturn in the 11th house
Saturn in the 11th house or as ruler of the 11th house in the horoscope implies that your biggest trials are associated with your friendships and social circle, people who protect and assist you in terms of achieving personal goals and desires. All relations and contacts which you create bear burdens and obstacles, lack of stability and sustainability, until you learn how to obtain a responsible and disciplined attitude toward them. Relationships with your friends are a source of troubles and problems. Fate brings you trials related to all the good things of life – it provides you with plenty of opportunities, but later takes them back in order for you to learn how to take only what is your due and leave the rest to others. Therefore, over time, you become prominent patrons, people who know how to distribute wealth fairly, as well as active participants in social groups, parties and associations for the protection of human rights.
