   Libra, The Scales   

Behind The Sign

The story behind the scales in astrology is different from any of the other signs because it first became identified as a sign by the Romans, rather than the Greeks. The Romans honored this constellation more than all the others.  The Roman writer Manilius described Libra as a sign "in which the seasons are balanced, and the hours of night and day match each other", referring to the autumn equinox.  This is the only sign in the zodiac that represents an inanimate object. It was once affiliated with one of the claws of Scorpius. Later, it was seen as the "scales of justice" held by the Virgo maiden Dike or Astraeia (the goddess of justice), which is the constellation right before it.  Unfortunately, when or why this sign has been represented as a zodiac sign all its own is historically unknown.

 

Scales can be represented in a variety of different ways.  We may have scales in our heads, in which we "weigh" things according to our own values.  We may also have scales in the form of data, like what is seen on a color scale.  The weighing scale may have possibly been inspired by both ideas.  The weighing scale is a measuring tool made to weigh the weight or mass of an object against another object in order to determine differences (or similarities) in data. In ancient times, these differences usually determined the value of objects when bartering or trading in markets.  In many cultures, the scales have been affiliated with justice (due to their connection with Justitia, the Roman goddess of Justice).  In the past, scales would usually be designed with one "plate" on one side, and another on the other side.  Today, most scales are electronic and the mass or weight is digitally calculated. Note: Scales with two plates on each side are sometimes referred to as "teeter-totter" or "seesaw" scales.

 

In astrology, the sign of Libra is representative of balance, fairness, cooperation, justice, harmony, and peace.  It is the 7th sign in the zodiac. The sign of Libra is ruled by Venus, the planet of love, beauty, money, and the arts.  Libra is an air sign, which represents changeability, mental pursuit, and sociability.  Libra is also a CARDINAL sign, which represents intiation and leadership.  Natives with positions in Libra are considerate and cooperative people.  They simply want to be accepted by others in a peaceable manner.  They are socialites in every way! No one loves spending time with others more than they do.  They may be against crude behaviors of any kind.  This may make them seem kind of stiff because of their need for a pleasant atmosphere all of the time.  One of the well known qualities of these natives is their indecisive natures.  They want to do what's best for everyone, which may lead them to avoid making quick decisions.  They are peace-loving and they would prefer to be on good terms with everyone.  They are proponents of fairness and justice, despite their seemingly passive natures.  If they give, they expect to be given.  These natives are quite charming and attractive. They know how to get their way with people. They must be careful of being manipulative however, as this is usually their way of avoiding hard work or conflict. Opposite sign: Aries.

The way a sign is expressed all depends on the planet that is positioned in that sign.  If it is a house cusp sign, both the ruling planet and the house this sign represents influences our understanding of that position.  Note: Natives with Venus aspecting the following planets may relate to these descriptions. Negative aspects usually means there will be disadvantages. Positive aspects usually means there will be advantages. The following descriptions show the various "Libra" positions we may encounter. Dignities and debilities will be mentioned throughout this webpage. They usually reveal many things about both planets and signs.

                              Sun in Libra: The Ego of Scales

The sun is the planet of the ego in astrology, and everything that sustains the ego is involved with the sun's energy. It is also a planet of leadrship. These natives will be the proudest scales we encounter. The sun is scientifically a star rather than a planet. Yet, it is responsible for life here on Earth.  Even in astrology, it represents our inner life force.  Without the sun, we may never feel "alive".  Unforunately, the sun is considered falling in the sign of Libra.  This is because the sun's ego loses energy behind the more considerate energies of Libra.

Natives with this position really want a balanced life.  They may feel they are constantly on a "seesaw", caught between one aspect of their lives and another aspect of their lives. One of the main conflicts they encounter is the struggle to balance their needs/desires with the needs/desires of others. They want peace in their lives more than anything, yet it may seem as if this is hard to accomplish.  These natives are quite charming, gracious, and considerate.  They try to be cooperative with others as much as possible.  This may be because they really want to be respected by others.  Unfortunately, they bend their own will and desires for the sake of other people's approval.  They may be manipulative of others, shifting between passiveness and aggressiveness. They love to socialize, and living the high life may be on one of their to-do lists. While they can be meddlesome sometimes, they may enjoy helping others.  They not only want their own lives to be peaceful and orderly, but they also want other people to feel at peace with life as well.  They make excellent mediators/diplomats and especially good judges because they are good at settling disputes.  Their ego is not as large as some other natives. They are aware that they need others in their lives and they always consider those who have helped them along the way to success. They may feel incomplete if they do not have someone to share their life with.  They may always be on a journey to figure out who they are. While living a fashionable life is quite tempting for these natives, having a partner or a lot of friends surrounding them makes these natives feel quite successful in life. (Natives with the sun in the 7th house may relate to this description).  Remember, Libra is ruled by Venus, therefore Venus's position in the chart will influence this position.

                             Moon in Libra: The Emotions of Scales

The moon represents the emotions in astrology, and everything that sustains the emotions.  It represents memories, habits, and dreams as well.  These natives will be the most emotional scales we encounter.  Scientifically, the moon is quite useful to the Earth's climate.  Not only does it influence the tides of the sea, but it also provides certain nutrients to all of our plant life.  To add, it gives us light during the nighttime.  The moon in astrology has a similar effect on our inner world.  It influences the tides of our emotions and sustains our life. 

Natives with this position have the greatest fear of being alone.  They may hate doing anything alone, whether its going to the grocery store or pumping gas in the car. They may have a need to satisfy their partner's wishes, all so they will keep the ones they love around them. They need to live a balanced and peaceful life in order to feel content.  They may be quite uncomfortable when there is dissention in their families or if there is any form of tension in their environment.  They are naturally charming and lovable. When they are loved, life is worth living. They also have a fascination with anything beautiful, especially all forms of art.  They may even enjoy decorating their homes or party planning. In fact, this may be the greatest form of emotional release for them.  These natives can be judgemental.  Despite the fact that they will do whatever they can to accomodate to others, they may be very critical or demanding of those closest to them.  This is because surprisingly they are quite sensitive and their standards for others may be too high.  They may not address their feelings or concerns right way (possibly to avoid confrontation).  Rather they may resort to manipulating people and situations in their favor. This may cause more problems in the long run for them and for others closest to them.  They are proponents of justice and fairness. They may be interested in being lawyers, judges, or diplomats. (Natives with the moon in the 7th house may relate to this description). Remember, Libra is ruled by Venus, therefore Venus's position in the chart will influence this position.

                              Mercury in Libra: The Intellect of Scales

Mercury is the planet of the mind and communication, as well as skills.  Therefore, these natives are the most intellectual scales. Astronomically, Mercury is a tricky planet.  It is said to have an unpredictable orbit (it goes retrogade more often than other planets).  It is typcially the smallest "classified" planet in our solar system.

Natives with this position are perhaps one of the most reasonable positions in the zodiac.  They try to see both sides of an issue.  They get very uncomfortable with one-sided viewpoints. They make excellent judges of character and situations because they have an objective point of view. They don't like to feel superior to others intellectually...yet they always insist on being right in every situation.  A mental connection is very important to them.  They may prefer being around those they can talk to about any of their ideas on life.  They want a reasonable and logical discussion, which can sometimes make others feel uncomfortable behind their constant need for manners.  It may be difficult for them to make decisions because they are usually always weighing things in their heads.  However, because of their indecisive mentality, they are quite considerate of other people. They are quite easygoing and charming speakers.  It is hard not to be persuaded by their perspectives on life.  They may have various artistic abilities.  They are visual learners, yet they are capable of trying other learning methods. They learn better in harmonious environments.   (Natives with Mercury in the 7th house may relate to this description).  Remember, Libra is ruled by Venus, therefore Venus's position in the chart will influence this position.

                                 Venus in Libra: The Charm of Scales

Venus is the planet of beauty and love, as well as the arts.  These natives will therefore be the most charming scales we encounter. It is also a planet representing money. Scientifically, Venus is the brightest and hottest planet in our solar system.  It is often referred to as "the morning" or "the evening" star.  Venus is considered in domicile in the sign of Libra.  This is because Libra is RULED by Venus.  Natives with this position will express the natures of the planets both naturally and comfortably.

Natives with this position are charming and attractive.  They really want to be loved by everyone they meet.  Of all Libran natives, they want peace and harmony the most.  They cannot handle dissention and are known to take sides (or avoid taking sides) in order to avoid conflict. They like to be in beautiful surroundings filled with tranquility.  And they also prefer to be around beautiful people!  They are attracted to people who carry themselves with class but also a bit of kindness can go a long way.  They can be superficial, however, only judging people by first appearances.  Speaking of judging, they can be quite judgmental of even those they make company with.  They often expect everyone in their circle to feel and think the same way they do. As lovers, they believe in give and take.  This can be good for some, but annoying to others.  They may keep score everytime they give something, in the expectation that the other will give in the same way.  Despite this, they love to be in relationships and they will do anything to accomodate to their partner...they'd rather have a partner than be alone.  Honestly, most people cannot see them without a partner because of their charismatic disposition.  They may be attracted to artistic fields, especially artistic fields in which they can arrange something.  They are good at creating order and harmony.  This also applies to fields of law.  They believe in justice and fairness.  They want everyone to be treated equally.  They hate when anyone feels left out of an opportunity without being given a chance.  If one hadn't notice, these natives love being around people.  One may find them at the center of an event or social gathering.  They love to live the good life. Fine foods, stylish clothing...anything socially trendy is what they enjoy.

                              Mars in Libra: The Energy of Scales

Mars is often called the planet of war.  This is possibly due to its reddish color, which at one time represented war and bloodshed.  Astrologically, this is the planet of energy, passion, assertion/aggression, sexuality, and focus.  These natives are the most passionate scales we will encounter. Unfortunately, Mars is considered in detriment in the sign of Libra.  This is because Mars (the planet of action and aggression) is a planet that is very opposite the balanced and peaceful sign of Libra.

Natives with this position are quite passive-aggressive in their expression.  One minute, they may seem to force their ideas on others and they may even seem to take decisive action when other people are involved.  The next minute they may seem to be easily swayed by the opinions of others and highly indecisive when taking any steps further.  They want to stand up for themselves, yet they also want to keep the peace. This is possibly one of the most indecisive placements.  They may find it easier to work with others who can stand up WITH them. Despite their flaws, these natives are also the most considerate when making decisions.  Unlike other Marsian natives, they are more cooperative and reasonable.  They simply want to do the "right" thing; do what everyone will be satisfied with.  They are also very good at bringing people together for social events or causes because of their poised and graceful manner, yet their passion and energy when they are around people.  Usually, this passion is hard to see because they are composed or unsure in some way.  Sexually, they may be quite picky.  They need visually stimulating partners and visually stimulating surroundings.  If their partner does not appeal to them in this way, these natives will feel more incomfortable and unsure.  While these natives are easily persuaded by the actions and opinions of their partners, they won't be happy unless there is an equal share of pleasure.  This can be frustrating because their sexual standards are so high, which can make sex less exciting to those who like sex to be rough and dirty. However, when these natives are given the sexual pleasure they seek, they are excellent at giving back what they recieved. They still remain considerate of their sexual partners' need for sexual pleasure, sometimes even if their needs aren't met.  Females with this position may be the most passionate about love.  Both sexes of this position will do anything for those they love.  They may be interested in careers involving law. They may also be interested in artistic fields, especially the performing arts. (Natives with Mars in the 7th house may relate to this description). Remember, Libra is ruled by Venus, therefore Venus's position in the chart will influence this position.

                                 Jupiter in Libra: The Spirit of Scales

Jupiter is astronomically the largest planet in our solar system.  It is considered a "gas giant" because as a planet it is mostly made up of gas.  This planet is even said to rain diamonds! Astrologically, it is the planet of luck, chance, beliefs, optimism, and expansion.  This means that these natives will be the most optimistic scales we encounter.

Natives with this position are easygoing, peaceable, and optimistic.  They are excellent at bringing people together of all walks of life.  They are especially attractive to the opposite sex, no matter what their sexual orientation.  This is because they easily relate to a variety of different people of varying backgrounds.  They are proponents of peace and justice.  They make excellent embassadors or diplomats. They may be quite preachy, expecting others to think the way that they think and feel.  Their idea of equality and balance is if everyone has the same "righteous" mindset they may have. This can make them seem holier-than-thou.  These natives may have a very superficial view of the world, despite their open mind.  They may enjoy visiting places that are peaceful or places that are rich in culture, architecture, and art.  They may also enjoy visiting places that stimulate them intellectually. They are all about living the classiest life and experiencing the best that life has to offer.  Of course, they can visit just about any place so long as they have someone to travel with!  They never travel alone, even if they have to bring along a pet.  They may gain benefits from lovers or other partnerships.  Working with others works more in their favor, rather than working a lone.  (Natives with Jupiter in the 7th house may relate to this description).  Remember, Libra is ruled by Venus, therefore Venus's position in the chart will influence this position.

                                 Saturn in Libra: The Discipline of Scales

Saturn is astronomically noticed for the rings that surround the planet. Just like Jupiter, it is a gas giant...and it also rains diamonds.  Saturn in astrology is considered the planet of limitations or restrictions, discipline, karma, law, and order.  Therefore, these natives are the most disciplined scales we will encounter.  Saturn is considered exalted in Libra.  This is because Saturn, which is a planet of order, is situated in a sign that is peaceful and harmonious (Libra).  This gives Saturn a positive channel to express its repressive energies.  

Natives with this position are poised, reasonable, and fair.  They always consider the alternative; yet they never seem to be indecisive in this regard.  They never get involved in anything without making sure everything is in place.  They are respectful of people, and they always make sure others are considered when they make plans.  They believe in order and they may be very particular about their environment.  To some this can make them seem stiff or stuck-up.  They are propenents of treating others the way they would like to be treated.  They may have been taught to be mannerable and considerate of others growing up.  These natives are more balanced than other Saturnalian positions, despite how stiff they appear.  They recognize that there is a time and place for everything, and they alway make time to have fun with friends.  Commitments, especially to others, are very important.  They may believe that marriage is a sacred bond of trust and that it should not be breached.  However, they are reasonable; they believe peace and love should be the ultimate goal.  They may be quite controlling of others in their intimate circles.  They may expect others to feel and think the way they do.  They may do well in any fields involving law because they believe in justice and fairness.  Their judgments are usually sound, even if they think their thoughts are above others sometimes.  They may also do well in any careers that involve establishing harmony and order.  They may be excellent at making arrangements; travel, wedding planning, etc.  They may also be excellent music composers or conductors. They even make perfect models because of their elegance and poise. (Natives with Saturn in the 7th house may relate to this description). Remember, Libra is ruled by Venus, therefore Venus's position will influence this position.

                               Uranus in Libra: The Innovation of Scales

Uranus has always been classified as an "odd" planet.  Even astronomically, it is the only planet that rotates on its "side" or axis in our solar system.  It is considered an "ice giant", which means it's a planet made up of mostly ice.  Astrologically, this planet is affilaited with originality, progress, innovation, genius, discovery, and revolution. These natives are thus the most innovative scales we will encounter.

Natives with this position are open minded when it comes to love and peace.  They may seek to break social molds that have held us back from achieving true peace of mind.  Don't be mistaken; these natives are still Libran in nature and they do believe in a social order.  Yet, they want a social order that is reasonable and fair for everyone.  Open love may be one of the main causes they stand for.  They see love differently from other generations before them.  As teenagers, this is when these qualities may be the most evident.  They may also seek to redefine what is socially considered "beautiful".  No matter what one may look like on the outside, to them anyone can be beautiful, as long as they have a beautiful character.  They may be highly innovative when it comes to fashion or any other social trends in society.  There are many amongst their generation that may make innovative beauty products to enhance upon one's appearance. These natives are being influenced by a cardinal sign, so this is when the most original trends will be formed.  They may be highly rebellious when there is no justice or fairness.  They want to be treated equally to others.  They may hate being left out of social events.  They like to be involved as active members of any cause. They want to come together with others peacefully.  They may prefer peaceful acts of rebellion, rather than hostile environments. Yet, there are times when they may cause chaos in order to enforce their own morals on others. They may be quite innovative when it comes to law. (Natives with Uranus in the 7th house may relate to this description).  Remember, Libra is ruled by Venus, therefore Venus's position in the chart will influence this position.

                                    Neptune in Libra: The Innocene of Scales

The planet Neptune is one of the most mysterious planets in our solar system (possibly because of its distance from Earth).  It is one of the "ice giants", because it is mostly made up of ice.  It has a bluish color (like the ocean), hence why it is named after the lord of the sea, Neptune.  In astrology, Neptune is the planet of illusion, creativity, impression, sanctuary/escape, and compassion. These natives are the most innocent of all scales we will encounter. 

These natives may envision a world that is peaceful, orderly, and beautiful.  As one can see, it is easy for these natives to be swept up by beautiful people, places, and things.  They have a tendency to trust everything they see with their eyes and they may overlook underlying dangers. They may fall in love easily and make commitments too soon. They may be the generation that would prefer to either hide the "ugly" truth, or continue to be in denial.  They genuiely enjoy living a peaceful, serene life. They may be quite creative when it comes to the arts.  Music composition, enertainment, or even painting and sculpting may be perfect for these natives.  They know how to capture the eyes of people, and may be excellent at arrangments of all kinds.  Despite their need for peace, they also have a need for a fair and just world as well.  They may feel pity for those who do not have the same opportunities that they have.  They may also pity themselves if they do not have the same opportunities as others.  Many of these natives want to believe that everyone is capable of living a good life.  They may enjoy the idea of coming together to make this dream a reality. (Natives with Neptune in the 7th house may relate to this generation).  Remember, Libra is ruled by Venus, therefore Venus's position in the chart will influence this position.

                                 Pluto in Libra: The Power of Scales

Pluto, unlike the planets mentioned above, is not one of the large classified planets in our solar system. Rather, it has been classified as a dwarf planet and it is the largest.  It is considered a cold and dark planet because of its distance from the sun.  It has an odd orbit.  It can last from 13 years to about 31 years in one sign at a time!  Pluto is the planet of power, depth, transformation, darkness, loss, and destruction.  These natives are the most powerful scales we will encounter.

Natives with this position are all about justice and fairness.  They will do whatever it takes to establish order and peace, even if it means completely destroying the system entirely.  This may seem paradoxical to some.  While they sincerely want peace, they may sometimes cause most of the rucus in the process.  They have a need for balance and equality in the world.  They are not the types to stand by and let inbalances slide.  They may be obssessed with having order in their lives, so much so they seem quite stiff.  There may be some natives that want a more strict order of doing things in the world. Yet, there may be natives that want to destroy old oppressive social ideals.  These natives may be at odds with one another as they attempt to establish true harmony in their lives.  This dissention may be most evident in their personal relationships.  They may want to either obssessively hold on to their partners, or they may be quite distrustful of committing to a relationship.  Either way, they both feel deeply about relationships. There may be many power struggles among various social groups of this generation.  Despite this, these natives have the most power and influence over the laws and the justice system of their nations.  Surprisingly, they are one of the most reasonable and considerate Plutonic positions. They may be attracted to law as a career choice.  They may also find art to be avenues in which they can express their need for power.  (Natives with Pluto in the 7th house may relate to this description).  Remember, Libra is ruled by Venus, therefore Venus's position in the chart will influence this position.

                                North Node in Libra: The Future Life of Scales

The north node is one of the invisible ecliptic points, representing when the moon crosses paths with the sun causing an eclipse on earth.  The north node has often been affiliated with the solar eclipse (a time of complete darkness on earth).  While, many modern astrologers disregard the lunar nodes, traditional astrologers say the lunar nodes as just as important as the planets.  The north node represents our karmic destiny/spiritual purpose on earth.  

Natives with this position may find that their life is leading them to work together with others rather than independently (south node in Aries).  Some natives with this position may long to share their life with another and work together with others to establish true peace in their lives.  Yet, there will always be natives that fight to hold on to their independence because this is what the natives of this position are used to. Those who embrace their karmic destiny (north node Libra) may develop new skills along the way, such as the ability to reason, as well as establish harmony and peace.  They may even develop a more charming, attractive side to themselves that considers others. (Natives with north node in 7th house may relate to this description).  Rememer, Libra is ruled by Venus, therefore Venus's position will influence this position.

The south node is more ignored by astrologers than other positions.  Yet, this position is important to understand, and it is the only way we can understand our Karmic destiny.  The south node represents the past life. Many astrologers encourage people to move away from the south node.  Yet, the past is not something we can discard or run away from, neither can the habits we've developed.  Rather, we can use the talents of our south node past to help us on our journey to the north node.  The south node is also an invisible ecliptic point, representing the point in which the moon crosses paths with the sun (causing an eclipse).  The south node is affiliated with the lunar eclipse (the day the moon turns blood red).

Natives with this position may have lived quite peaceful, harmonious lifestyles in the past. Or they may have lived a life where they mostly had to be cooperative with others.  Yet, their life may be moving them into a more independent lifestyle (North Node in Aries).  Some may try to hold on to this lifestyle because it's more peaceful and comfortable.  Yet, some may long to test their own abilities and be independent.  They may seek to be leaders.  If they embrace their karmic destiny, they can use their natural ability to charm others and their natural inclination to establish justice/fairness to reach their goals.  They may especially be able to make use of their creative/orderly abilities. These qualities and abilities can help them become more efficient leaders when trying to achieve their destiny.  (Natives with south node in the 7th house may relate to this description.

            Chiron in Libra: The Wounded Scale

Chiron is the planet of wounds that need to be healed.  It is scientifically a dwarf planet with lesser astrological significance than Pluto, but more significance than the asteroids Ceres, Juno, Pallas, and Vesta. It tells the story of pain, but a way to heal that pain.  

Natives with Chiron in Libra have a wounded sense of  peace, relationships, love, and unity.  The native is either bending constantly to feel some sort of love and peace, or the native no longer sees the need to be loving and peaceful due to to pain and trauma.  The native may let all the wrong people into their lives just to feel a sense of love or peace.  They may never feel comfortable alone, yet they may also feel discomfort around others.  They may be extremely shallow or unconcerned with their appearance altogether. They must learn to love themselves and the best way to do that is to spend time working on their own gifts and abilities.  These natives are quite creative, with a strong need for beauty in their lives.
