every ~29 years

it comes back

As of October 2026, the last time was 2000–03: Saturn first entered Gemini on 10 August 2000 and, because retrograde motion carried it back and forth across the sign's boundary, entered it twice in all before leaving for good on 4 June 2003. Next: Saturn enters Gemini on 1 June 2030 and stays until 14 July 2032.
