Saturn in the signs
Saturn in Libra
Saturn is exalted in Libra: structure and fairness agree. Discipline goes into relationship, justice and the well-judged decision; fear is of injustice and of being alone. Commitments are serious and lasting. Authority is balanced. The work is to decide without a committee, and to let the partnership be imperfect.
In plain words
Saturn stands for your duties and your limits. In Libra, that works in a Libra way: fair, charming and slow to decide. You weigh both sides and want everyone to get along.
