Saturn Goes Direct in Pisces ~ How You Can Work With the Energy ✨

Saturn has officially stationed direct in Pisces — and you can feel the shift.
In this episode, we explore what happens when “gravity returns,” clarity drops in, and the fog of Saturn retrograde finally begins to lift.

We talk through:
 • Why Saturn in Pisces can feel blurry or ungrounded
 • What shifts when Saturn stands still and then moves forward again
 • The long arc you’ve been building since March 2023
 • Why the deeper, more serious episodes have resonated most
 • How Saturn helps you take a dream seriously and make it real

If you’ve been drifting, doubting, or waiting for clarity, this episode helps you understand why things finally clicked into place — and what Saturn is asking you to build next.

 Astrology isn't just about signs and symbols, it's a tool for navigating real life. Hello and welcome to Astrology with Alisa. I'm your host Alisa Dixon, and I'm so glad you're here. Let's dive in.

You guys — Saturn in Pisces
 has been really strong this week.

He stationed and went direct,
 and when Saturn stands still like that
 we all feel it.

That slow, heavy,
 unmistakable
 Saturn energy
 that cuts through the fluff
 and brings things into focus.

I had already planned
 to talk about Saturn going direct this week —
 but then I actually felt it happen
 in the moment.

It happened late Thursday night,
 at 10:51 pm,
 right as I was getting ready for bed.

And out of nowhere,
 something clicked.

This grounded clarity dropped in —
 not dramatic,
 not emotional —
 just firm.
 Definitive.

Like a quiet internal “answer.”

Things I had been wrestling with for weeks…
 confusion and uncertainty
 I had been feeling,
 questions about direction,
 approach,
 and how I want to move forward with my work…

suddenly became obvious.

I didn’t even realize what had happened at first.
 It just felt like a quiet inner knowing.
 Like alignment.

A solid, decisive thought —
 This is how I'm going to move forward.

And it wasn’t until the next morning
 that I recognized exactly where that clarity came from.

It was Saturn.

Clearing the fog.
 Showing me my path forward
 as he turned around in the sky.

Returning to forward motion,
 helping me do the same.

And later that morning —
 almost as if the universe wanted to underline it for me —
 I came across an article about Saturn going direct in Pisces.

And there was this one line in that article
 that I haven't stopped thinking about:

“When Saturn stands still and gravity returns.”

That phrase hit me
 in two completely different
 but equally important ways.

First — literal scientific gravity.
 The force that keeps us grounded to the earth.
 So Saturnian.

And second — “gravity” as in grave.
Serious.
Weighty.
Real.

That is Saturn.

The planet that says:
 No shortcuts.
 No pretending.
 No skipping steps.

Do the work
 and you get the result.

Saturn rules reality.
 While Pisces rules imagination.

And immediately, I thought of this moment from my childhood.

It's actually a really funny story.

My mom is a Pisces Sun —
 with Jupiter, Mercury, and her North Node all there too —
 so she is pure Piscean magic.

Compassionate.
 Generous.
 Spiritual.
 Intuitive.
 Kind.

She used to take these little afternoon meditations —
 she'd go lie down, put on soft music and an eye mask
 and go to a place she called “na-na-land.”

We’d ask where she was and she’d say,
 “Oh, I just went to na-na land for a bit.”

Total Pisces.

Then there was my dad — the scientist.
 A biology professor.
 All facts, logic, and reality.
 Very Saturn.

One night they got into the funniest argument —
 well, more like a playful banter —
 because my mom said she didn’t believe in gravity.

And my dad was losing his mind.

He was giving full scientific lectures in the kitchen.
 Explaining formulas.
 Demonstrating physics.
 Drawing diagrams.

And my mom was just like:
 “Nope. I don’t buy it.”

My brother and I were dying laughing.
 It was so ridiculous
 and so perfectly them.

But honestly?
 It's the first thing I thought of
 when I read that line in that article.

When Saturn stands still and gravity returns.

Saturn retrograde in Pisces
 is like my mom in her na-na land,
 floating around
 refusing to believe in gravity.

And Saturn direct
 is like my dad showing up saying,
 “Alright, time to come back to earth.”

No more pretending.
 Time to get real.

Now — did my dad ever convince my mom
 to believe in gravity?

Honestly, I have no idea.
 And do I care?
 Absolutely not.

She’s amazing either way.

But that’s Saturn in Pisces.

The dance between reality and imagination.

Pisces is formless.
 Fluid.
 Dreamy.
 Without boundaries.
 Pisces literally is the ocean.

And Saturn?
 Saturn is not built for formlessness.

Saturn wants walls.
 Structure.
 Clarity.
 Reality.

Where Pisces is soft and ethereal,
 Saturn is hard and concrete.

So when Saturn is in Pisces —
 and especially when it’s retrograde —
 things get blurry.

Boundaries dissolve.
 Confidence wobbles.
 Direction gets foggy.

But then
 when Saturn goes direct?
 There’s this moment —
 where reality drops back in.

Like a rock falling through water.
 Landing after floating a little too long.

Literal gravity.

The feeling of coming back to earth.
 Coming back to yourself.
 Coming back to the work.

Back to that line in the article:
 When Saturn stands still and gravity returns.

And right now, that’s where we are.

Gravity has returned.
 Saturn is direct.

And suddenly, the path forward —
 for all of us —
 will feel clearer than it has in months.

And if we are intentional with the energy,
 we can lean into the best parts of both.

Pisces is idealistic,
 creative,
 and inspirational.

And Saturn brings the ability
 to take that inspiration
 and actually build something with it.

So looking through that lens,
 this whole transit has been about asking yourself:

What dream am I willing to turn into reality?
 What inspiration is worth the work?
 What vision deserves structure?

We've all been working through this Pisces chapter
 since March of 2023,
 when Saturn first arrived in Pisces.

Saturn spends about two and a half years in each sign —
 a full cycle of growth,
 lessons,
 and soul work.

And this recent retrograde?
 That was the final turn.

Right now Saturn is sitting at 25 degrees of Pisces,
 and he won’t leave the sign
 until February 13th, 2026.

So we’re in the home stretch.

Just a few more months
 to work intentionally
 with Saturn in this part of our charts.

A few months to take everything we’ve learned,
 everything we’ve refined,
 everything that’s been forming beneath the surface —
 and turn it into something real.

So tune in.
 Pay attention.
 And if there’s a dream,
 a vision,
 or a spark of inspiration you’ve been carrying…

this is the moment
 to give it structure.
 To bring it to earth.
 To make it real.

I think I’ve shared with you before —
 for me, this whole Saturn-in-Pisces chapter
 has been about becoming the astrologer
 I’m meant to be.

Pisces sits across my 2nd and 3rd houses —
 my livelihood
 and my voice.

And when Saturn first entered Pisces in 2023,
 that was the moment I realized:
 I want to do this professionally.

Not someday.
 Not hypothetically.
 Not “when life settles down.”

But now.
 In a grounded, Saturn way.

So that early 2nd-house phase
 was all about foundation-building.

Creating the business.
 Building the website.
 Laying the bricks
 for something real.

And once Saturn moved into my 3rd house —
 the house of communication and teaching,
 the house where my Sun, Venus, and Mars live —
 that’s when the podcast was born.

My voice took shape.
 I started teaching.
 I started sharing.
 I started finding my rhythm.

And then Saturn dipped into Aries for a bit,
 and retrograded back into Pisces,
 and I felt that wobble.

The questioning.
 The refinement.
 The “how do I want to show up?”

But when Saturn went direct this week?
 Everything snapped into place again.

I suddenly felt grounded.
 Clear.
 Serious —
 in the best, most Saturn way.

And I realized:
 I am a serious astrologer.

Even if I keep things warm and conversational.
 Even if I try to avoid being too heavy.
 Even if I make it approachable and fun.

The work is real.
 The guidance is real.
 The energy is real.

And the episodes where I’ve allowed myself
 to go deeper —
 to get more serious —
 to talk about the heavier planets…

Those are the ones that resonated with you the most.

I avoided Pluto for six months
 because I didn’t want the podcast to feel “too dark.”

But when I finally did the Pluto episodes?
 They became two of the most listened-to shows I’ve done.

One listener told me
 that the story I shared about the wedding and the toast
 inspired them
 to dig through old journals
 looking for their own Pluto patterns.

They said they were hooked
 and learning so much.

And then the Out of Bounds episode —
 the more technical, more educational one —
 that landed deeply too.

A listener messaged me saying
 that my explanation of their OOB Moon
 was the first time anyone had ever helped them
 make sense of their emotional experience.

And moments like that —
 those messages —
 are why I know I’m on the right path.

People listen to astrology podcasts
 because they want to learn.
 They want depth.
 They want meaning.
 They want to understand themselves.

They want Saturn.
 Even if they don’t call it Saturn.

And that’s where I come alive.

That’s my Saturn —
 exalted in my 9th house,
 ruling my Capricorn rising,
 ruling my Moon —
 saying:

Teach.
 Guide.
 Go deeper.
 Make the intangible real.

And that’s the clarity I felt Thursday night.
 That’s the gravity that returned.
 And that’s the path forward for me now.

So as Saturn moves forward again
 and gravity returns,

I want to invite you
 to find your gravity too.

Your anchor.
 Your clarity.
 Your next step.
