Saturn Retrograde 2025: Dates, Signs and Stations
One window opening in 2025 · 138 days between stations · Pisces
Saturn turns retrograde once in 2025, on 13 July 2025, and turns direct again on 28 November 2025. Counting only the calendar days of 2025, Saturn is retrograde on 139 of them.
13 July to 28 November, in Pisces
Saturn stations retrograde on 13 July 2025 at 7°48′ Pisces, in Uttara Bhadrapada, and stations direct on 28 November 2025 at 1°01′ Pisces, in Purva Bhadrapada. Between the two stations it travels back 6.8° of the zodiac over 138 days.
7°48′ Pisces, the 13 July station, is in Uttara Bhadrapada pada 2, the Virgo navamsa. 1°01′ Pisces, the 28 November station, is in Purva Bhadrapada pada 4, the Cancer navamsa. The arc between them spans 3 padas, from Purva Bhadrapada pada 4 up to Uttara Bhadrapada pada 2, and Saturn crosses every degree of it three times: forward before 13 July, backward until 28 November, and forward again afterwards. Saturn is in a neutral sign in Pisces.
The whole 6.8° lies inside Pisces, so for the 13 July retrograde of 2025 there is no sign change to date: Saturn in Pisces covers all 138 days.
The site’s ingress, nakshatra and conjunction tables run from 2026 to 2028, so for the 2025 window they have nothing to add, and this page adds nothing in their place.
It begins 378 days after the previous Saturn retrograde began on 30 June 2024, and 240 days after that one ended.
How 2025 Compares With Saturn’s Other Windows
Across the 8 Saturn retrogrades the site computes from 2024 to 2031, a window lasts 134 to 139 days between stations and retraces 6.8° to 7.0°. The 2025 window, at 138 days and 6.8°, is inside that range by length.
Every date here is a day, never a time. A planet at a station is barely moving, so the minute it turns is the least stable figure in the table; for Saturn in 2025 the day is what two careful sources will agree on.
