Sat in 5th means they take Life TOO seriously-need to loosen up at times!! This placment may dampen the natural fun and joy of the 5th...that's my vote!

PS-I have a Pisces Saturn in 5th

Hard time being spontaneous?

My guesses would be a strict father.
A leaning to be leary of stranger's around my children.
Very protective of offspring.
Also a leaning of perfection in all i do, and unfortunately also, an expectation of other's to do thier best as well.

I was 32 when I had my first child and 40 when the youngest was born.

Could part of it be that the saturn in the 5tht house has a way of doing the things other's wish they had while they were young, rather than run out and have babies after HS graduation?

In other words, maybe we're the one's everyone is always saying to, 'I wish I'd done something with my life rather than settle down and had a family.'?

i think they take their academic education very seriously

the person does not embark on a venture unless it was important to him

hmmm comparing them...

Hopefully everyone has other aspects to lighten this tough one up...we are a bit hard on ourselves mostly and DO have high expectations of others as well...I like to think of the placement as more 'grounding' in some ways...as long as you can remember to not take life so seriously!

(Psst...it is also OK to remind us of this fact once in a while...it helps us tremendously!)

I really do know how to spell!! Ha,ha....See, the perfectionist nature of Sat in 5th rises it's head!

My Gem Sun always multi-tasks....too many things at one time...phone call, eating, typing, reading mail...all at once!

my father was REALLY strict on me growing up (he was a police officer)...I can't stress the word STRICT....it was almost unlivable but somehow I got through it.

I ten dto hold back on enjoying life "letting loose" unless I am around people I know really well. I am not married and I don'thave any children but I long to have both in my life.

I went to school....obtained an MBA...I bought a house, I live alone...lots of accomplishment except for theo ne I think matters the most love (marriage) and family (kids).

Through the medium of this house, Saturn tends to have a pronounced effect in colouring the individual's overall view of life and his capacity to find meaning in his own life. Whether we assign Saturn a psychological meaning and associate him with the shadow or "trickster" archetype of the unconscious or whether we assign him an esoteric meaning and call him Lucifer, the behavioural patterns which seem to be concurrent with Saturn in the ninth house follow the usual path of constriction, overcompensation, disillusionment and pain, searching, and eventual inner realisation and control. The kind of pain which usually accompanies this placement is loss of faith, and the search is generally for a new framework of spiritual and moral values by which the life may be given structure and meaning.
