Sun Conjunct Saturn: Sourcing Well-Being from Within

Right now the Sun is orbiting closer into an exact conjunction with Saturn in the sign of Scorpio, with the exact hit coming around midnight in the PST time zone. Because the Sun represents vitality and life force, and Saturn, the planetary energy of restriction and structure, in the next day or so you could find yourself feeling extra mindful about your responsibilities, or have the experience of slogging through some difficult circumstances to get a deed accomplished. The effort is greater and so also is the result a more long-lasting one. You may find when you emerge that you have penetrated to the depths, rather than bouncing along the surface. A sober outlook and reality check may lead you to accept your lot and do whatever work is necessary to learn a significant lesson for your life path as it unfolds. This provides you an opportunity to rely less and less on exterior circumstance and instead look inwardly for places where you can affect positive change and growth. Entrepreneur Jim Rohn reminds us that taking responsibility means becoming centered in your power and your life: "You must take personal responsibility. You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself."
