LIBRA
September 24 - October 23
Librans and other air signs are very flexible with a deeper understanding of life and people. They can change their minds very quickly and have great mental versatility with capacity to be thinking of more than one thing as any one time. Their Karmic lesson is that of brother/sisterhood and the connection between humanity – where what we do to one of us – we do to all of us. They are sensitive people who appreciate good manners, harmless wit, and love to work hard and play hard. The key words with Libra are love and romance. Relationships are very important for them. They are diplomatic and strong willed once they've established their place in life. success and an abundance of friends are common signs of somebody born under the Libra star sign.
The Libran is ruled by the planet Venus. They express themselves gently because they are both gentle and affectionate themselves. Libra is a true sign of beauty -and the Libran is often identified instantly because they have a natural charm and purity about them. Often, they are endowed with exceptional good looks and charisma, with a tendency to focus on physical health and fitness. They are passionate for justice and equality, and they are always willing to share. They endeavour to create peace and harmony wherever they go. They become completely disenchanted with dishonest people particularly if they hold a public office, and avoid associating with hypocrisy, meanness, and shallowness.
They have an intense desire for peace and harmony and are naturally balanced. They see the perfection of nature and marvel at the order of the material and universal forces. They abhor bloodshed and violence because it lacks balance and offends beauty. They are blessed with highly perceptive insight and a keen sense of justice and can be frank and forthright in their expression. They do not intend malice within their direct communication but rather prefer to correct the undesirable and regain a balanced approach. That being said – because they desire balance sometimes it is hard to know where you stand with a Libra because they might not know where they stand in the equation and sit in the middle ground or on the fence.
Libra rules the seventh house which is connected to relationships. Libra's motto is: "I balance"
Things to Look out for with Libra
The Libra can appear to be opinionated. If the Libra is living a life of extremes, with little balance they can become pushy and moody and emotionally tempestuous. They might even be reckless or aggressive or succumb to sexual excesses if their health is unsettled. Their internal balance can be disrupted due to physiological and chemical impacts upon the brain, nerves and muscles which can lead to the emotional disharmony and send them into internal conflict and confusion, and when unwell they can be resistant to dietary changes. Libras need time to think and plan as part of managing their internal conflict, as part of finding where they ‘sit’ within the space of problem solving and dilemmas.
