An illumination system and a projection device are provided. The illumination system includes at least one laser light source providing at least one laser beam and a polarizing rotation module including a first axle, a first driving element, and a polarizing element. The first axle has a first revolution frequency. The polarizing element is disposed on a transmission path of the laser beam. The first driving element causes the polarizing element to rotate in a temporally sequenced manner.

The laser beam passing through the polarizing element has different polarizing states at different times. The specific frequency and the first revolution frequency of the first axle are not exactly divisible by each other. The invention can generate an image with uniform polarizing direction.
