If you want a relationship to last, you need to have Saturn contacts. Saturn is the planet of responsibility, hard work, reality, dedication and time. A relationship can’t survive if the people in it don’t feel a sense of responsibility for one another. Any meaningful relationship requires work and effort, and a mutual sense of obligation binds people together. Relationships that last have to pass a reality test. Summer romances don’t need Saturn contacts, flings don’t need Saturn contacts, but if you want lasting love, you want Saturn contacts. Saturn contacts form enduring bonds.
The negative side to Saturn contacts is that they sometimes feel like a burden. They can be like a heavy weight resting on your shoulders. If you are the Saturn person in the aspect connection, then you may limit or restrict the other person in some way, or that person will feel like you do. The other person in the relationship may feel inhibited around you. At worst, Saturn contacts are just depressing. When responsibility and duty overtake pleasure and fun, a relationship loses its appeal.
Ready or not, Saturn makes you grow up. Saturn ages whatever it touches. This works in natal astrology as well. The planets that Saturn contacts through synastry, or in your natal chart, get a mature attitude. If you don’t want to grow up, you might reject Saturn’s energy. You may resist responsibility and maturity and feel that people are holding you back. You may resist forming lasting connections with people.
What grows up:
Sun-Saturn: The Sun person learns to be a more mature version of who he is. He comes into his own.
Moon-Saturn: The Moon person gains emotional maturity and no longer gives in to child-like emotional displays.
