OUCH..... Relationships are put to the test!  Many may have felt this approaching over the last couple weeks when the sun, which represents our ego self, life and light force, entered Libra, the cardinal air sign of relationships and partnerships.  With Saturn, the planet of restrictions, restructure, boundaries, lessons, wisdom, and karma already in Libra laying the skeletal foundation for solidarity within relationships, adding the sun's light to the picture puts it ALL on the table.  The sun will come into an exact conjunction with Saturn at 5:13pm eastern today.  Essentially the spot light is on the for better or worse, those relationships without a solid foundation containing ultimate trust, honesty, and unconditional positive regard will likely crumble, like the termite eaten house under the perfect storm.  The solid foundation built on the blood, sweat, and tears of true love and true commitment will withstand the painful force that this conjuction presents.  Those understanding this, experiencing positive aspects to the natal chart despite this heaviness, or having passed the tests of Saturn may find their relationships may build to the next level, such as a formal commitment or marriage proposal.  Saturn brings "death" upon that which is no longer serving you, and if you have been fighting the truth you've been tuned into, then Saturn comes along with karma and lessons to restrict the situation from continuing.  While this energy is heavy to say the least, the wisdom gained through the pain is priceless and allows for continued growth and achievement in a more advantageous direction.  There is no growth without the lessons experienced from such pain.  Saturn will reward those that put in the hard work and humble recognition of karma due.

Mediate and honor this energy in your life no matter how painful it may feel, as this pain allows for the pondering of continued growth or release of the present misguided situation.
