What Rituals Should You Do During Saturn Retrograde in Pisces? | Pick-a-Card Tarot Reading

Saturn has been in retrograde since July 13, 2025. On September 1, it will shift from Aries into Pisces and remain there until November 28, 2025.

When Saturn is in retrograde, it gives you energy to reflect on what discipline, structure, tradition, responsibility, and patience mean to you.

So this is a great time to ask yourself questions like these:

・What does discipline mean to you?

・When do you feel you first developed your sense of discipline?

・Do you prefer a traditional way of living, or a more innovative one?

・What do you see as the pros and cons of living traditionally?

・What responsibilities do you carry right now?

・Why do you feel it’s important to keep those responsibilities?

・When do you use your patience and endurance the most?

・Do you feel like you’re using too much patience and endurance? If so, in which areas of your life?

Because Pisces energy can heighten your intuition, you might notice more dreams than usual. Some of them could carry messages from your spirits or offer insights about your past. If you have a significant dream, it’s a good idea to write down what you remember and think about what it might mean.

Today, I’m doing a Pick-a-Card Tarot reading on the theme: What rituals should you do during Saturn retrograde in Pisces?

I hope this reading is helpful for your journey!

Overall Messages

The Ace of Pentacles is at the bottom of the deck, so this Saturn retrograde could bring you plenty of abundance if you use this energy to reflect on yourself!

Group 1

With the Nine of Swords in the middle of the spread, you might be feeling very hurt and so lost that you don’t know what to do. It could be related to your discipline, traditions, responsibilities, and more.

So, if you feel like you can’t ask for help because of your discipline, it might be a good idea to seek support from outside. You could talk to your family and friends, of course, but right now you might need more professional support.

Also, you might want to ask yourself what advice you would give to yourself if you were a different person. Maybe you’re very responsible, and because of that, you could be too hard on yourself right now.

But if you imagine yourself as a different person—or even a cute little animal—what kind of advice would you give? I think you would give them gentler answers.

There might be too many thoughts running through your mind right now, so try to take some rest.

If you’re afraid of having nightmares, try placing your hands on your chest or stomach while lying in bed and saying, “I’m safe because my spirits are protecting me. Thank you, spirits, for always being there for me.” This might help you feel a little better!

Group 2

You have two Major Arcana cards in the spread, so you might be going through a major shift in your life. I’m pretty sure that this Saturn retrograde in Pisces could help you find some answers.

With the Judgement reversed in the middle of the spread, you could be feeling stagnation related to family matters, and it might involve some kind of unfairness that happened to you.

You might want to reflect on what’s holding you back from getting out of the situation. There may be ways to free yourself, but there could also be many things you still need to think through. Even if you have a flexible mindset, this could be blocking your ability to think freely and creatively.

Your advice is to identify the unfairness and injustice you’re experiencing. Maybe you’ve been giving and caring for others, and that has made you numb to your own boundaries.

If you don’t know where to start, you could write down what you wanted them to do for you. Maybe you just wanted them to keep their promises, respect your boundaries, give you enough time and space to make decisions, and more.

If you need help, I often use ChatGPT to put into words what I’m thinking when I’m confused about labeling my emotions—and you could use it too!

Group 3

Even if you look very calm, it seems like there’s emotional turbulence in your heart. Maybe it’s a good time to figure out the cause. You might be holding back your emotions, especially when others are having fun. Sometimes, you may put on a happy face even when you’re not feeling that way, so others don’t worry or think you’re a problem. However, there may be a good reason why you can’t feel happiness.

Your advice is to ask yourself why it’s sometimes difficult to express your emotions. I feel like you might be struggling with how quickly your thoughts come out when speaking versus writing. Maybe you’re better at expressing your emotions in writing than speaking them instantly.

You could try increasing your vocabulary by reading books, but I think this is more about your mind holding you back. Perhaps you have difficult memories with your father or someone very disciplined, and that has made it hard for you to show your emotions.

I have a feeling you might need to declutter your sadness to make more room for happiness in your heart. So maybe you should allow yourself to cry when you’re alone and let out everything you want to say.

If you feel like talking about this, you could also try opening up to someone you trust!
