What Saturn in Taurus asks

Taurus is the sign of what lasts: money, land, the body, routine. Saturn there asks whether your security is real or just familiar, and what you'd keep if you had to choose.

People in this return often describe questions about worth. What am I holding onto because it's mine rather than because it's good? What would I build if I weren't afraid of losing what I have? Saturn return in Taurus.

Saturn describes the work, not the outcome. Nothing on this page predicts events; it dates the stretch and says what it tends to ask.
