Saturn deserves its reputation as the most feared planet because it is relentless in forcing us to learn the lessons of the house in which it falls in a natal chart. There's no escaping it. Restriction, fear, hardship, and limitation are always found where Saturn is teaching lessons. It never gives an easy way out and it takes its time. Years are spent dealing with the difficulties this planet presents, but with time, the planet does reward the chart holder with wisdom, confidence and patience. There's no point in fighting against the forces of Saturn because it uses time and experience to teach. Acceptance and the courage to develop patience are the best recourses in a struggle with Saturn.
