Since December of last year, Saturn has been in retrograde in Leo, and won't go direct again until April 19th. Those with Saturn or Sun in Leo could be humbled once again, and encouraged to establish better habits of discipline in order to feel solid about what they're achieving. All of us may find it's easy these days to coast on image, but far more satisfying to fill out our lives with something more substantial.
At its most self-aggrandizing extreme, Leo demands power and largesse, and is blinded to the needs of others. Saturn's sojourn in Leo may expose the pitfalls of ego-driven leadership, and attempt to reign in unbridled authority. From the work place to the halls of government, bossy people could finally have to face a day of reckoning.
Saturn in retrograde may also try to limit the explosive consumerism that buys now, and pays later. Some might discover that bigger is not necessarily better, and there's a high price to pay for all those super-sized cars, homes and bling-bling. The upside to curbs on spending is possibly realizing that you already have everything you need to be happy.
