Navarathri - Thula month?

Every year we celebrate, Navarathri and it regularly comes in the month of Thula. (i.e), When Planet SUN travels in Thula raasi, then, we celebrate Navarathri. Why do we celebrate in this month?

Possible guesses, based on my astrological understandings.

Planet SUN, is weak during this month. If so, who should, raise and provide the support? Definitely, its Mata Shakthi. SUN is considered as Shiva. As per Kaala Purusha philosophy, the 7th place, represent partners, Lord Siva's partner is Mata Shakthi, thus Lord Shakthi comes into picture. So by worshipping Shakthi, during this month, which can complement, weakness of planet SUN and provide applicable benefits to the requester. And also, this 7th house, Thulam(Libra), is owned by Venus, who wish to be decorated, and celebrated, so eventually, we end-up coming with Kollu and have became as custom.

On this reference only, our ancestors, thought of this event, and created Navarathri as a festival, made us to worship lord shakthi and her representations as different forms of lakshmi. 

So, we need to reason-out each and every event identified by our ancestors, which would have quiet intense reasoning, atleast astrologically.
