Saturn is a cold, dry, secretive & barren planet. It is the lord of sign Capricorn and Aquarius. It is the mooltrikona sign of Aquarius. Saturn is exalted in Exalted in Libra and debilitated in sign Aries. Saturn when benefic makes the person true, honest, reliable, faithful and sincere. Saturn when malefic will cause delay. It can also deny. Bring disappointment, disharmony, dispute, and difficulty. Saturn is a large and slow planet, and so it rules these things. Large slow things cause a lot of pressure, and so does Saturn. When Saturn affects something, it slows it down, puts it under pressure, and ultimately crushes it under its tremendous weight and restrictive power. Because of such things, Saturn is considered a first class malefic or in other words a planet capable of doing great harm. But Saturn has one good quality it gives the person strong willpower and inner strength to fight all odds. The struggle that Saturn puts us through teaches us hard lessons. Like the Diamond that is created from dark coal under great pressure for a long time. Saturn rules coal, pressure and long time. So here Saturn creates the Diamond, which is very beautiful and extremely hard and strong.
