In Transit
When Saturn transits the 3rd house, it's time to review or polish our perception of others and of the world. If you are an introvert, it's also about bringing your inner dialogs into the open. If you are an extrovert, it's about learning when to keep some conversations to yourself. Sometimes, what you have to say is just too much information.This transit is also about learning how to communicate with the audiences we are interested in.

It's an opportunity to reduce our level of ignorance, to shake off some false beliefs and naivety about others.
