Libra ! About Your Self... |
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 over enthusiasm 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 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 YOU, AND THEIR SOLUTIONS |
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.

more interesting facts about your sign : |

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.
