Aquarius natives will need to tread a little carefully over the coming months. Saturn is set to turn retrograde on the night of 27 July 2026 and will move in this reverse motion for an extended period, a shift that could directly affect health and married life.
When Saturn's Retrograde Phase Begins and Ends
According to the Hindu Panchang, Saturn will begin transiting in retrograde motion at 01:25 AM on the night of 27 July 2026. It will remain in this retrograde state until 4:59 AM on the morning of 11 December 2026. That works out to roughly 138 days of Saturn moving backward before it finally turns direct again, resuming its normal forward motion.
What It Means for Aquarius
Saturn's retrograde motion will mark the start of the middle phase of Sadhesati for Aquarius. If Saturn delivers the results of past actions during this period, physical troubles could increase, and there are signs that married life may also come under strain. People are advised to stay alert about their health during this time and take particular care on the physical front. It will also be important to steer clear of any kind of conflict or friction, since that could put pressure on married life.
The Final Phase of Sadhesati
Aquarius natives are currently going through the last phase of Saturn's Sadhesati. This effect will continue until 3 June 2027. After that, Saturn will change signs, and Aquarius natives will move completely out of the influence of Sadhesati.
