Mars and Saturn are nearing a conjunction and will be at the same degree of Libra on 15 August, their first alignment since 2010. In astrological terms, Mars is energy, Saturn provides structure, and Libra is concerned with relationships. The approaching conjunction signals the conclusion of the cycle of the previous two years and the beginning of a new two year cycle, with a cross-over period in which long-term are achieved and new goals are put in place.
