Classification
Libra is the Seventh Sign of the Zodiac, counting from Aries the First, and is the Sign directly opposite Aries in the Zodiac. These two Signs tend to afflict each other, so people born with the Sun in Libra, and the Moon in Aries, the opposite Sign, tend to a very discordant nature, with much conflict between their will and desires, and are often unpopular in life because the higher and lower minds, represented by the Sun and Moon signs, do not harmonize when thus born. The Signs Aries and Libra are known as the two Equinoctial Signs, and when the Sun enters the first degrees of these Signs on the first day of Spring and the first day of Fall, as on or about March 21st, and September 21st each year, the days and nights are equal. The Sun enters the Libra Sign each year as he crosses the Equator on his Southward journey for the year. The Sun is considered stronger in his power, when he is passing through the first six signs of the Zodiac, from Aries to the end of Virgo (March 21st to September 23rd), than when he is passing through the six lower signs from Libra to the end of Pisces (September 24th to March 20th). Libra is the Second Sign of the Airy Triplicity, comprising Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius which three signs are in the very harmonious relation to each other and form a triangle in the Zodiac.
Libra is also classed as a cardinal, masculine, positive, movable, hot, moist, diurnal, sanguine, humane, Western sign, and is the chief of Day House of Venus. The Libra Sign has its affinity with the Seventh House of the Heavens, the House of Marriage, which house occupies the thirty degrees above the Western horizon at any time of the day or night. The twelve houses of the Heavens retain a fixed relation to the Earth’s surface, while the twelve signs of the Zodiac all appear to pass a given point in each twenty-four hours, due to the rotation of the Earth on its axis. Libra is the Sign of “The Balance,” or a pair of scales, which symbolizes equity and justice to all.
Rulership
The beautiful planet, Venus, the Goddess of Love, is the ruler of, and has her strongest position in, this Sign. Saturn also has his exaltation in Libra, and the people born with that planet in the Libra Sign, are said to have a good fate in life, though their Youth may be unsettled and unsatisfactory, and as a rule they have more power in the end to overcome difficulties and bring a happy ending to their lives. The Sun has his fall in Libra, and born with the Sun therein tend to be more or less ill-fated, often have very sorrowful careers and meet with many disappointments in life. The planet Mars, has his detriment or debility in the Libra Sign, and people who have Mars in Libra at birth are apt to be lacking in energy, prefer some easy position in life, and inclined to take their ease at every opportunity, unless Mars happens to have some accidental dignity, as to be rising in the East or on the First House, or in the Mid-Heaven at birth, which would then tend to offset his weak position in Libra. From this we see that a careful study should be made of the dignity and aspects of all the planets, at birth, to determine a person’s powers or debilities.
Places Signified
Being an Airy Sign, Libra is said to rule the high altitudes, tops of mountains, sides or hills, sandy and gravel fields, hunting grounds and trees. People born with the Sub in this Airy Sign, demand much of the fresh, high, light, pure, clear air, and in case of sickness should live in the higher altitudes or mountainous districts, especially if at birth they also have the Moon in a majority of the Airy Signs, as in Gemini or Aquarius. Libra is a cardinal sign and when locating in towns or cities, its natives should choose a residence at the corner or head of the block or at the end of the block.
Personal Appearance
This Sign, when rising upon the Eastern horizon at birth, and ruled by the beautiful planet, Venus, tends to produce tall, beautiful, well proportioned bodies, small hands and feet, an open countenance, full expressive lips, a clear complexion, blonde hair, blue or gray eyes, and generally symmetrical features. Some of the world’s most beautiful women were born in this sign, though they sometimes tend to stoutness as they grow older. The personal appearance is modified and often entirely reversed, by the positions of the other planets at birth, so that no accurate or reliable description could be given, unless a more extensive reading was studied.
Temperament
Libra people born with the Sun in the ascendent and ruled by the planet Venus, usually possess the Venus temperament, which endows them with artistic, musical qualities, makes them fond of the beautiful, and very much interested in the pleasurable and social side of life. Venus ruling over Love, lends these people an amiable, loving nature; causes them to be much absorbed in their affections and matters of the heart and materially enhances marital happiness, especially if Venus is well aspected by many of the planets at birth. The planet Venus, also endows these people with very affable, courteous, obliging manners, but Libra, being an airy cardinal Sign, militates against stability, often making them restless, changeable, and inclined to scatter their energies; hence, perfect concentration is a virtue that should be cultivated by them. Inasmuch as the Sun and the Moon are both under this Sign, their combined powers control the friendship and enmity of all creatures.
Justice, virtue and honor are usually their watch-words and when a friend gets into trouble they seem to regard it as a personal calamity and exert every effort to help them. They dislike demonstrative scenes of anger, though they become very wrought up at times themselves. These people are largely original in their operations, with ideas too far advanced to permit them to remain content in subordinate places. Libra people are capable of real rulership and unconsciously lead while thinking very little about it, and others are glad to follow, it is all done in such and easy and tactful manner. Libra people are usually possessed of intuitive, logical, just, diplomatic, impartial, discriminating characteristics, when when lacking in spiritual, psychic development, or living on their lower plane, they are inclined to be impatient, prejudiced, impetuous, reckless, stubborn, melancholic, deceitful, approbative, and easily imposed upon, especially if a majority of the evil planets are eminent at birth. Hence a more extensive reading should be carefully studied to determine the aspects of all the planets at the time of birth.
Diseases
Libra rules the back, kidneys, or reins, and the bladder, which makes people born with the Sun in this Sign subject to lower spinal trouble, diabetes, Bright’s Disease, rheumatism, the wasting diseases and corrupt blood due to improper functioning of the kidneys and bladder. On the lower plane of life, Libra people, by their recklessness, impatience and dissipation of vital forces, make themselves liable to serious disorders of the digestive organs, and to nervous prostrations and similar affections. Saturn or Mars in the Libra Sign at birth tend to aggravate these conditions and in order to know the influences that are exerted over the weak parts of the body, and the diseases to which they are most susceptible, these people should make a careful study of a more extensive reading.
* Any of the medical illnesses listed in this section can result in serious injury and/or death and should be examined and treated urgently by a medical professional.
Vocation
Being ruled by the planet Venus, fits Libra people for some artistic work, such as musicians, dancers, actors, actresses, designers, decorators, sculptors, artists and dealers in fancy wearing apparel, finery, perfumes, and all objects of art. Their love for all things pertaining to pleasure and art admirably adapts them as stage and theatre managers, producers, directors, technicians, and promotors of all amusement enterprises. They have natural mechanical ability along inventive lines and display unusual aptitude in the handling of metals. Their natural ability to acquire occult powers, and intuitive knowledge is often phenominal. Other planetary aspects at birth may tend to adapt them for some other line, and before a specific occupation or profession is engaged in, a careful study of a more extensive reading should be made.
Marriage Suitability
The sense of personal freedom is so strong in Libra people, that great discretion should be exercised in selecting the marriage partner. Libra born people have been found to mate well with those of the Airy class, Gemini, Aquarius and their own Sign. Congeniality has been found with those born in Aries, Sagittarius, and Leo, if planetary influences are favorable at the time of birth. Many more inharmonious marriages are contracted by those of this Sign than of any other Sign in the Zodiac, and it is therefore highly advisable that a careful study of a more extensive reading for both parties be made before marriage is consummated.
