Mars sextile Saturn
Mars sextile Saturn: effort and patience in quiet cooperation, a knack for steady work that shows once it is put to use.
Meaning
At sixty degrees, Mars and Saturn are close enough to cooperate and far enough apart to keep their own pace. Caution turns into method rather than a brake, provided Mars takes the first step.
How drive meets discipline: the accelerator and the brake, endurance and frustration, and learning to act with control and good timing.
Energy and discipline cooperate for you. You can work steadily for years towards a goal, build something with your hands, or train methodically. You tend to know your limits and respect them, which makes you reliable when a job simply has to get done.
In practice
A sextile rewards initiative. The link is there, but it tends to stay dormant unless you use it — take the class, make the call, try the combination. People often discover their sextiles once they start acting on small openings.
