It means to try again. If you were riding a horse and fell off, you would get up and get "back into the saddle" to try to ride the horse again. So if someone has failed at something or has had a problem doing something, sometimes even something they have been able to do well in the past, someone may encourage them to try again by saying "Get back into the saddle".

It is a horse-riding term that has come to mean perseverance. If you fall off a horse, the best thing to do is get right back into the saddle and ride some more, or you might become too scared to ride. As an idiom, this means that you need to try something again after you fail, and do it better or differently so that you might succeed this time.
