Saturn’s dipping back into Virgo, so the time is right to restructure your plans and goals, revise your manuscripts, and revision your future.   If it needs adjusting, Saturn retrograde in Virgo is the time for easy adjustments.

Saturn is not only structure, but also accountability, so checking each and every plan and plot you have is a good thing right now.   Look for acocuntability–and make changes or eliminate goals and projects for which you’re no longer willing to be accountable.   Revise plots with structure in mine; sure you can keep those crazy characters, but you have to decide when the reader will know what they’re doing.

As for revisioning your future–just weed out those goals you wouldn’t be willing to have manifest right this second.   And take at least one step toward the ones you keep even if that’s a minor step like a phone call, a blog, or a note in your day planner.

Saturn’s retrograde until the end of May.  It hangs around its station degree and minute from May 27 to June 2nd, so get your work done before then.

You won’t be done, of course.   After Saturn goes direct, you can still polish that structure and shine up the dream, reworking them happily until Saturn goes into Libra again on July 23rd.

You goals for Saturn in Libra:  Be ready to recognized great critique partners and other team players to help you reach your goals.   Sadly, you may also need more distance from some of your present colleagues.

When clients meet with an astrologer for a reading, what the client usually wants (or thinks she wants) are answers.  While there’s a science to astrology that lets astrologers predict accurately the hours the Moon will be void or the duration of Saturn in Libra, answers are only the tip of the iceberg of the art of astrology.

Astrology is also a language and a powerful mnemonic device, a way of categorizing and reducing everything in the human’s universe to symbols that can be manipulated and discussed.   The questions astrological patterns raise are truly more significant than the answers.

Here are questions worth asking about significant relationships (both personal and professional) now:

1.  Is this relationship vital and fulfilling for both of parties?

2.  What’s right about the relationship?

3.  What would make it even better?

4.  And, after asking the first questions, sometimes it is important to ask, Would we both be better if we put this relationship on hold, either temporarily or permanently?

Use the questions and your journal for a little serious study.   Ask the question more than once and check out the answer with your personal experience, with people who observe the relationship and with the other party.   Dig deeply and make changes carefully.  Remember Saturn brings concentration and focus as well as boundaries and endings.
