Libra! About Your
Sign...
Libra is the only
inanimate sign of the zodiac,
all the others representing
either humans or animals.
Many modern astrologers
regard it as the most desirable
of zodiacal types because
it represents the zenith
of the year, the high point
of the seasons, when the
harvest of all the hard
work of the spring is reaped.
There is a mellowness and
sense of relaxation in the
air as mankind enjoys the
last of the summer sun and
the fruits of his toil.
Librans too are among the
most civilized of the twelve
zodiacal characters and
are often good looking.
They have elegance, charm
and good taste, are naturally
kind, very gentle, and lovers
of beauty, harmony (both
in music and social living)
and the pleasures that these
bring.
They have good critical
faculty and are able to
stand back and look impartially
at matters which call for
an impartial judgment to
be made on them. But they
do not tolerate argument
from anyone who challenges
their opinions, for once
they have reached a conclusion,
its truth seems to them
self-evident; and among
their faults is an impatience
of criticism and a greed
for approval. But their
characters are on the whole
balanced, diplomatic and
even tempered.
Librans are sensitive to
the needs of others and
have the gift, sometimes
to an almost psychic extent,
of understanding the emotional
needs of their companions
and meeting them with their
own innate optimism - they
are the kind of people of
whom it is said, "They
always make you feel better
for having been with them."
They are very social human
beings. They loathe cruelty,
viciousness and vulgarity
and detest conflict between
people, so they do their
best to cooperate and compromise
with everyone around them,
and their ideal for their
own circle and for society
as a whole is unity.
Their cast of mind is artistic
rather than intellectual,
though they are usually
too moderate and well balanced
to be avant garde
in any artistic endeavor.
They have good perception
and observation and their
critical ability, with which
they are able to view their
own efforts as well as those
of others, gives their work
integrity.
In their personal relationships
they show understanding
of the other person's point
of view, trying to resolve
any differences by compromise,
and are often willing to
allow claims against themselves
to be settled to their own
disadvantage rather than
spoil a relationship. They
like the opposite sex to
the extent of promiscuity
sometimes, and may indulge
in romanticism bordering
on sentimentality. Their
marriages, however, stand
a good chance of success
because they are frequently
the union of "true
minds". The Libran's
continuing kindness toward
his or her partner mollifies
any hurt the latter may
feel if the two have had
a tiff. Nor can the Libran's
spouse often complain that
he or she is not understood,
for the Libran is usually
the most empathetic of all
the zodiacal types and the
most ready to tolerate the
beloved's failings.
The negative Libran character
may show frivolity, flirtatiousness
and shallowness. It can
be changeable and indecisive,
impatient of routine, colorlessly
conventional and timid,
easygoing to the point of
inertia, seldom angry when
circumstances demand a show
of annoyance at least; and
yet Librans can shock everyone
around them with sudden
storms of rage. Their love
of pleasure may lead them
into extravagance; Libran
men can degenerate into
reckless gamblers, and Libran
women extravagant, jealous
and careless about money
sometimes squander their
wealth and talents in their
overenthusiasm for causes
which they espouse. Both
sexes can become great gossipers.
A characteristic of the
type is an insatiable curiosity
that tempts them to enquire
into every social scandal
in their circle.
In their work the description
"lazy Libra" which
is sometimes given is actually
more alliterative than true.
Librans can be surprisingly
energetic, though it is
true that they dislike coarse,
dirty work. Although some
are modestly content, others
are extremely ambitious.
With their dislike of extremes
they make good diplomats
but perhaps poor party politicians,
for they are moderate in
their opinions and able
to see other points of view.
They can succeed as administrators,
lawyers (they have a strong
sense of justice, which
cynics might say could handicap
them in a legal career),
antique dealers, civil servants
and bankers, for they are
trustworthy in handling
other people's money. Some
Librans are gifted in fashion
designing or in devising
new cosmetics; others may
find success as artists,
composers, critics, writers,
interior decorators, welfare
workers or valuers, and
they have an ability in
the management of all sorts
of public entertainment.
Some work philanthropically
for humanity with great
self-disciple and significant
results. Libran financiers
sometimes make good speculators,
for they have the optimism
and ability to recover from
financial crashes.

Possible
Health Concerns:
|
Libra governs the lumbar
region, lower back and kidneys.
Its subjects must beware
of weaknesses in the back,
and lumbago, and they are
susceptible to troubles
in the kidneys and bladder,
especially gravel and stone.
They need to avoid overindulgence
in food and especially drink,
for the latter can particularly
harm the kidneys.

Problems
that may arise for
Libra:
|
As with all sun signs, we
all have unique traits to
our personalities. When
these traits are suppressed,
or unrealized, problems
will arise. However, with
astrology we can examine
the problem and assess the
proper solution based on
the sun sign characteristics.
As a Libran you may see
things below that really
strike home. Try the solution,
you most likely will be
amazed at the results. If
you find yourself on the
receiving end of the negatives
below, it is because you
are failing to express the
positive.
Problem: Finding
yourself frequently trapped
in situations that have
no depth and little value
to you or the other person.
Solution:
Try not to pretend feelings
you do not have and find
a way to back gracefully
out of a superficial relationship;
look before you leap.
Problem: You find
that you do not really like
yourself and/or beating
yourself up over not being
able to please another.
Solution:
If you learn how to please
yourself without depriving
others, then you will be
able to please someone else.
Problem: The situations
that make you ill at ease
is only mildly irritating
to another.
Solution: Try
to cultivate inner security
through spiritual strength
and awareness.
Problem: Feeling
like you are nothing: your
actions being frustrating
to others.
Solution:
Developing your feelings
of self worth by expressing
the positive in your nature
and not letting your elitist,
class consciousness show.
| Interesting
facts about Libra: |
The symbol associated with
your sign is the scales
of balance representing
the balance that you continually
seek in your self and your
life. The scales were also
adopted by our judicial
system to symbolize a balance
of fairness in the law which
is emphasized by 'blind
justice' holding them.
The
color of choice for Libra
is
Blue
Your ruling planet is VENUS
Your starstone is the precious
Sapphire. The Sapphire is
one of the most beautiful
and sought after gems in
the quartz family. It is
considered good luck in
many ways and one of the
major healing stones.
