I heard different thoughts on this, some say it's an good placement, and it can bring wisdom to that person, high intellect, some say it can bring problems in communication, fear to express yourself and talking.

Some my opinion can be, that Saturn as an slow planet, and wherever it is, can case problem. So in 3rd house of communication, person can have problems in it, or slow learning, maybe will not understand some things in early ages, but Saturn as an slow but great teacher, will bring it to that person later, the wisdom through hard working.

And when I was 17, I was told I had a "great but terrible gift" for communicating (Merc is in the same stellium as Saturn...and Pluto). I learned to tone it down. I actually called BS on a lot of things as a kid (before I was 17) without even meaning to (though with my Mars-Uranus, I did it on purpose as well), and at times it frightened school faculty. In retrospect, I realize now that I was actually a topic of conversation in the teacher's lounge because teachers kept coming up with the same unspoken deal (something other kids commented on): I got to read or write in class without getting in trouble for it, but in exchange I was not to ask questions or participate in class discussions (I remember a couple of teachers flinching when they saw my hand go up, even if they'd just asked if anyone had any questions ).

I have this placement, though it's in a stellium (with sun) and sextile to another stellium. I've been a very fast learner (one teacher thought I needed to be in a school for the gifted).

That said, I did continue to learn a lot as I got older, and change as a person because of that.
