Astrology: Libra Traits and Characteristics


Libra

Libra, the 7th sign of the zodiac, is an air sign. The sign of the Balance functions through finding a point of equilibrium between two opposing views. It loves fairness and loathes injustice. It strives to find the middle way, the win-win solution for both parties. It is mentally observant, and enjoys a meeting of minds, even if it means stretching a point or two to make their own side fit to their satisfaction. One of Libra's most lethal weapons is charm, and even though they love company and rapport with a partner or colleague, they are not beyond using tactical, soft, persuasive pressure to get the result they want.

Libra is the principle of knowing oneself through the mirror of someone else, they see fragments of themselves coming through another's perspective, and they love to learn through one-to-one interaction with others. Sometimes they lose the thread of their own knowing and purpose because they give too much of themselves to the needs or requirements of those around them. They don't like open confrontation and are always hoping to negotiate a settlement so everyone is happy. However here are times when their version of justice does not tally with others and then Librans can show their warrior side.

Venus - the Goddess of love and beauty - is the planet ruling Libra, and Librans have a natural beauty and grace about them. They have a developed aesthetic appreciation and make good companions, but also as Venus is a money planet, Librans can make money from operating on a one-to-one basis.

Libra rules the kidneys and blood sugar levels. Natives of the sign should make sure they drink plenty of water and avoid too many sweets.

Librans are good in artistic careers or with people where they can negotiate or mediate and balance opposing factors. They excel in mediation type activities also diplomacy and the through the legal system.
