☆♥*♥☆ Happy Birthday Libra♎! ☆♥*♥☆

Happy Fall Equinox , Mabon Birthday Libra♎, the Scales! For those born September 22~October 22!
Key Phrase for Libra is “I Balance”

Fetching Venus rules Libra♎, the 7th house, and includes all relationships; marriage, partnerships, open enemies, and legal disputes.  Libra's tend to develop many interests including theater, decorating, creating beautiful music, art collecting; anything that is aesthetically pleasing and luxurious. Libra's are likable because they exude a certain amount of charm, grace, elegant sense of style and good taste. They enjoy entertaining and all the comforts money can buy, much like Venus-ruled Taurus♉.

Libra abhors discord and literally runs in the opposite direction to avoid anything or anyone distasteful and unpleasant. Libra wants to smooth over difficult situations and “mediate” the atmosphere. In order to avoid difficult situations, Libra may hide or stifle their own true feelings to not make waves. They're often indecisive and have difficulty making firm decisions and commitments. Libra Rising (Ascendant) individuals are usually visually attractive, charming, and often graced with attractive legs!

Libra folks want their relationships to be fair and in balance. They are born diplomats. Often enough, the task is working at "maintaining" harmony rather than naturally being harmonious. Idealistic, naturally optimistic, and romantic, Libra may do everything in their power to please you. Libra's affinity with Venus often desires the traditional marriage and are usually involved in a romantic relationship. If not, then Libra maintains several platonic ones.

 However, Libra's appear to marry less often than other signs.  Why, you ask?  They simply can't make up their minds! Libra's vacillate so much in relationship decision-making that the object of their affections tires, feels undesirable, and may walk away....quickly into the arms of someone else. Indecision causes disillusionment when Libra realizes the loved partner is "human". 

"What goes around comes back around ...

Cuz honestly you turned out to be the best thing I never had
 You turned out to be the best thing I never had
 And I'm gon' always be the best thing you never had
Bet it sucks to be you right now"
 ~ Best Thing I Never Had ~ Beyonce'

Sparation, detachment, and challenges ensue that "test" the stability of the bond. Libra may become so emotionally detached, like their polar opposite Aries, or act out the negative qualities of Aries i.e.: anger, rage, overly independent, impulsive, egoistic, and difficult.

In health matters, Libra rules the kidneys, veins, and the acid-alkaline metabolism. If the body is too acidic, insomnia, headaches, heartburn, and nervousness may result. Venus ruled Libra may also become addicted to "sweets" or succumb to sugary foods.

The Sun is in "fall" in the sign of Libra because its light is often lost to the "other". This means that Libra tends to see others as their source of energy and light which is why Libra's are often called "co-dependent". Integration, awareness, and personal growth are necessary goals.

Libra♎ is the only sign of the zodiac that is a mechanical device rather than an animal or human figure. “The scales in Libra had a deep significance for the Egyptians. It was said that at the time of death the goddess Maat placed the human soul on one scale and a feather on the other. If the scale tipped even slightly, the soul must reincarnate with the goal of releasing the extra weight. Since Libra comes before Scorpio, the sign associated with death, which the Egyptians honored in the eloquent preparations for the afterlife, the prime goal in life was to make the scales balance, or to prepare the soul for its afterlife” (Guttman & Johnson).

Libra’s polar opposite (7th house~partnerships, relationships, law suits, open enemies, marriage) is the cardinal, fire sign Aries (1st house: personality, self, and physical appearance). The integration of "me" versus "us" is a challenge for Libra, also contingent upon other areas of the birth chart. When under stress each sign operates through the most negative characteristics of their polar opposite, the sign 180 degrees opposite itself. When under stress, Libra may adopts the negative characteristics of fiery Aries, ruled by war god Mars, and loose their balance, become impulsive, disruptive, vengeful, or impatient.

Interestingly, there is greater geomagnetic disturbances in the ocean during the Spring Equinox (Aries), and during the Autumn Equinox, September/October,  (Libra). Fewer disturbances are found at the Solstice Points of December/January (Capricorn) and June/July (Cancer). Since Aries/Libra symbolizes the relationship axis, this dynamic illuminates the unique and disparate energies of Mars (Aries) and Venus (Libra)!
