CORRECTION: Replacing the 2nd and 3rd paragraphs in the "Pluto, the Sun, and Venus" section:

With the Sun and Venus in the thirtieth degree of Libra, we are being  tested on our ability to stay in balance, to cooperate, to be just and  equitable, and to bring harmony to situations where there is discord.  Meanwhile, with Pluto in Capricorn, we are challenged  to act with integrity, to align with our higher purpose, and to be  conscientious, self-reliant, humble, and responsible.
 
This week, as Pluto in Capricorn squares Venus and the Sun  in Libra, we could experience significant changes in these areas. The  Sun-Venus conjunction, which occurs on Saturday, October 22, occurs when  both planets are in  the critical "anaretic" degree of Libra, and both are still square  Pluto. This increases the impact of the square aspect, since the  anaretic degree represents an opportunity to complete issues. This  degree is said to bring about experiences that test how well  we have learned the lessons of the sign.
