The Sun in Libra comes to perfect a conjunction with Saturn on 1st October (dependent on timezone) to begin a new cycle of authority - towards our own sense of self and our power and its reflection in our lives and relationships.
Leading into this conjunction can be an odd time. As with any two planetary bodies approaching a seed point, there is a certain amount of 'skin sloughing' that occurs prior to the event. In the case of the Sun and Saturn the approaching feelings could present themselves as low energy levels, depression and vacillation. We may feel like hibernating like bears - the 'fight' of outside circumstance a little too much to take on, and henceforth, there is a need to retreat. The approaching Mercury opposition to Jupiter doesn't help in this respect either - Mercury in Virgo wants to get to work (especially now that it has come away from the shadow of its retrograde phase) but Jupiter in Pisces just wants to drift and dream. At the moment, drifting and dreaming wins out. This feeling is again emphasised but a complete absence of fire (as in planets in fire signs) in the sky and the only planet at the moment with any 'oomph' - Mars in Scorpio, is tied up with an inner battle with Venus in Scorpio.
The Sun and Saturn presents a chance to put a stake in the ground - used positively it is an aspect of 'affirmation' - a practical, pragmatic and logical step to achievement of future success - a chance to overcome our fears and inhibitions. The emphasis is also very much upon relationships too with a new Mars/Venus cycle happening this weekend. If you've been toying with the idea of some change, some new creative angle or new personal regime in any way, then the beginning of October might be an opportune moment.

Oh goodness! I have lots of planets in Libra I believe! Everything just seems to slow paced at the minute!

Hey Lindsay - if you have lots in Libra then Venus will be important - and she is slowing down at the moment to turn backwards in a few weeks. The good news for you is the Mars/Venus conjunction - if you're creative then it's a great time to dig deep into that Scorpio mystery inside you - many rabbits can be pulled from hats if you're willing to take the journey in :-)
Interesting read. Not only am I sun-Libra, but my venus and mars are in scorpio...hmmmm....(and virgo rising)...So I guess both scorpio hits would intensify those qualities of inner compression & introspection.....
continuing...At this time there's a complete overwhelm of identity options for career...so I hope Saturn can consolidate the N-R-G somewhat...(natal saturn in the 5th house with Cap on the cusp)
Saturn/Sun is master consolidator of self expression - but, you know, maybe the consolidation will be to keep your options open - be flexible and freelance.
nice blog .....
