Saturn – Astrology's Benefic teacher or harsh taskmaster
The astrological planet Saturn gets bashed by most astrologers as a malefic planet. I think most astrologers are wrong.
Did you ever have a tough teacher in school or college?
The one who refused to accept adequate and challenged you to strive for excellent? The one who set what seemed an impossibly high bar and demanded that you hurdle it and wouldn’t except any excuses for failure. The one who awarded you with an A or B at the close of the semester and made you feel immense pride because you knew you earned that grade with every drop of sweat you shed.
If you know that teacher, then you already understand Saturn. The reason why some folks call it a malefic is because, yes, Saturn is an unfailingly demanding, except no excuses planet – which is exactly why Saturn is really an undercover benefic planet.
Let’s talk about why and start by looking into Saturn’s mythological and celestial meanings to drive our understanding.
