Saturn in Sagittarius strengths & challenges

  • difficulty committing to one direction

The lesson & mastery

The lesson is to mature one's beliefs into tested, lived wisdom rather than borrowed dogma or constant searching. Restriction often appears as fear of being tied down, easing as one discovers that committed meaning is itself a form of freedom.
