Libra is the Sign of justice in the Zodiac, indicative of persons who balance everything to a nicety, always trying to promote good will and friendship...even if they must go to extremes to do so. This trait is accentuated by the inherent love of harmony and beauty, reflected by the beneficent glow of Venus, this Sign's Ruling Planet. Sympathy and understanding are paramount here. Libra natives will never be deaf to an appeal from family or close acquaintances and are likely to even side with total strangers if they seem to represent a deserving cause. Indeed, those who fall under the jurisdiction of Libra are inclined to champion the underdog, even against their more sound judgment. Again, this appears to be courtesy of the urge to equalize matters and produce harmony.
Considered to be one of the most charming Signs, Libra individuals are attractive, tactful, charismatic and popular. However, with a tendency to shrink from disagreements with others, Libra natives can also be regarded as evasive and indecisive as a result. These are souls who love to talk but, given the inherent value of the ability to explore and investigate all aspects of living, seldom get along well with people whose opinions are fixed. There is an inner desire here for immediate and warm relationships, coupled with a constant seeking to identify with the world around them by participating in the lives of others to the fullest extent. Libra individuals abhor loneliness and are creatures of moods...yet tend to look for companionship rather than more profound affairs. Although the intellect is highly developed, those ruled by this Sign are not necessarily scholarly. Still, a rich imagination endows their lives with the color and pace they desire, even if such is not attained in a realistic sense. There is a propensity here for Libra natives to work themselves to the point of exhaustion, often attending to irrelevant details and side-issues instead of the main task in hand, and this will be something that requires careful watching. Nonetheless, those governed by this Sign are generally inclined to take the middle course during life, veering neither to the right nor to the left, but steering a path that will please the majority of those around them.
Over and above cold reason, intuition is a better guide for Libra individuals, who experience difficulty anyway in putting their heads above their hearts when making a decision. This ability often enables them to ferret out deceit and insincerity, no matter how much it may be glossed over. However, if these natives prejudge a matter or listen to persons in whom they trust or sympathize, they can be carried far astray. Very susceptible to being influenced by those who impress them, Libra individuals will imitate the manners of such persons and may even pick up on their traits. However, since everything associated with this Sign is related to balance, the susceptibility of Libra persons will be offset somewhat by a strong-mindedness that can become firm and unflinching in purpose. Natives of Libra grow dissatisfied with anything wherein they are disregarded...even if it is to their own best interests. If they are not consulted on a matter, then they consider it unfair play and their high sense of impartiality is offended. Although these individuals are frequently imitative in conduct, they are likely to be original in ideas and quite farsighted because of their intuitive qualities. The motives of those governed by this Sign are always of the highest caliber, but they will act upon impulse when they deem it to be the correct course of action. Inherently generous, they expect that quality in those around them. Thus, they are inclined to regard the merest slight as a rank injustice, which will cause a rift between themselves and the person or persons otherwise involved.
Perhaps the worst fault of this Sign is the desire to take the easiest road. This could lead to trouble, particularly given the inherent liking for the "bright lights." Although there is certainly no sin in being fond of luxury and beautiful things, there is a danger in loving them to the exclusion of all else. The greatest strength here is most likely the ability to keep an open mind. It is the singular quality which will make most people like and respect Libra natives. But, within those governed by Libra resides a continual tug-of-war of which few others are aware...Libra persons find it exceedingly difficult to choose one philosophy and stay with it, or one set of moral values and keep to them. Being true romantics, love is paramount in the lives of Libra subjects. Indeed, love is all and everything would be well lost for the sake of love...if only the strength could be found to make such a sacrifice. On occasion, the way to disaster is paved with good intentions and Libra natives always have the best of those. An outlet for expressing emotions is of the utmost importance for happiness and this is why so many Libra individuals excel in the arts, being beguiling and most fascinating souls. Libra individuals like amusements and excitement. In addition, the inherent love of harmony makes them very fond of music.
Due to the measureless sympathy of those ruled by this Sign, they love humanity for itself alone. They display the utmost tenderness toward the afflicted and distressed...for the worthy unfortunates, no matter how lowly...and their goodness does not content itself with mere expressions of sympathy. Any worthy cause appeals to these natives in such a strong fashion that they will not hesitate to make personal sacrifices in order to be of practical assistance. This tendency also extends to the brutal and inhumane treatment of dumb animals. Indeed, there are probably no kinder-hearted people in the world than those governed by Libra. They are invariably honorable and just in all their dealings. In terms of friendships, Libra natives are attracted by personality and mental gifts rather than by social positions or the possession of wealth. Still, the temperament of these individuals can change suddenly from hopefulness to melancholy, such extremes of mood often coming and going very unexpectedly. Inharmonious surroundings can cause despondency or gloom. Quite often, those governed by this Sign are unable to explain their sudden low spirits brought on by nothing more than being out of harmony with their environments.
Bascially, Libra natives seem to believe their mission in life is to bring people and ideas together. However, if they are pushed in one direction, they sometimes have a tendency to push back in the opposite way. Frequently in two minds about things, those who fall under the jurisdiction of this Sign may experience initial difficulty in speaking up for themselves. Still, once the mind is made up, they usually make their decisions known fairly forcibly. There is a deep dislike here for anything abrasive or crude. There is also a desire to keep up appearances. Libra individuals are experts in the field of diplomacy and possess the ability to contain a situation courtesy of charm, persuasion, flattery, coercion, negotiation or, if necessary, outright manipulation.
Being the middle Air Sign, Libra is expected to be (and is) a gifted communicator...energetic and ambitious...sometimes generous to a fault and frequently brimming with inspiration. These are individuals who can display great moral fiber and ones who can withstand a run of bad luck or personal losses far better than any other Zodiac Sign. When spiritualized or awakened to the higher duties of humanity, Libra natives are evenly balanced and the good they can do is often quite phemonenal. Such Libra subjects are surrounded by mangnificent magnetic forces that maintain a high level of vigor. In addition, they are blessed with psychic powers and possess much knowledge and insight. Still, they would be hard put to explain how they "know" these things. Alternatively, this Sign's major negative challenges arise from hypersensitivity and a tendency to become anxious concerning the welfare of parents, children and close friends. They may react severely to a display of any form of combativeness and hostility...possibly going so far as to instantly flee from the presence of the perpetrator. Yet another challenge is the propensity toward self-indulgence, which manifests as a compensation mechanism for the failure to obtain that which Libra individuals believe they should possess. Always striving to please those around them, natives of this Sign have an insatiable appetite for flattery, which too often ends in disaster. It will also be necessary for Libra individuals to learn how to accept criticism, otherwise their sense of justice can become warped and they will argue themselves into accepting wrong as right, particularly when they yield to the wiles of those who would prey upon their sympathy rather than hearkening to the blunt words of true friends.
The secret fear of Libra subjects is being alone with themselves. This is a loving Sign whose natives will find a way around any impasse to bring peace and harmony into their lives and the lives of others...and whatever the method of achieving that may be, these are individuals who will mean everything from the bottom of their hearts.
The Libra female is vibrant, vivacious and thoroughly captivating. Others cannot help to be drawn to her happy smile and are immediately conscious of her sex appeal. Although this is a flirtatious woman, she always remains the very epitome of diplomacy and tact. Thus, she is trusted by her friends. While blessed with taste and a sense of refinement, the female governed by this Sign does have a tendency to love the good life, which can lead to laziness and selfishness. Far from "fluffy" in her thinking, the Libra woman can prove to be a great asset to the career of any partner. She is never anything less than attractive in her appearance, mixes well with others, gets along with almost everybody and in addition to being tactful, is also shrewd. This is a female who looks for an adventurous and intelligent partner and if that partner be fairly well off, so much the better. However, she is not adverse to lending a hand in helping any mate to accumulate the good things of life. When young, this woman is often likened to a beautiful flower...essentially lovely to look at...but, with advancing years, she often finds that life has educated her to a high degree and she becomes wise, witty, entertaining, tolerant, amusing and in essence, a wonderfully rewarding person to know.
By nature refined, gentle and kindhearted, women governed by Libra are also amiable, being fond of entertainment and social gaiety. This female sometimes has grand illusions about many things and can become despondent when matters are not as she imagined or expected them to be. Still, this is a generous and lovable soul, whose artistic side craves beauty and harmony in her surroundings. There is also an innate desire to help those who are the unfortunates of this world. Essentially romantic, this is a woman who tends to be "in love with being in love," rather than with any particular person. Here, there is an intense desire for sympathy, love, understanding and companionship...but Libra is a most idealistic Sign and those who fall under its jurisdiction are frequently very difficult to satisfy. Beneath the apparent open affection, there is a streak of selfishness and sometimes shallowness associated with the Libra woman. In some instances, this can be traced to a lack of attention from one or both of this female's parents.
The Libra woman is an impeccable hostess, but one who is at her best when she has plenty of servants to do the actual work. While infinitely capable, this female frequently dislikes manual labor, particuarly if it means getting dirty. In essence, she prefers to snuggle back into a luxurious pile of cushions and summon assistance.
Willing to sacrifice their own health and comfort for those they love, women governed by Libra will cheerfully endure any hardship. However, their extreme solicitude in this respect can make them apprehensive for fear that ill fortune lurks on the horizon. Hence, these females sometimes worry and fret without legitimate cause or reason. Eventually, this habit can exhaust their vitality, resulting in a peevish and melancholy nature that will react unfavorably upon the physical condition and nerves. There is also a tendency here to be careless with personal belongings and a bent toward being impatient and restless.
Above all else, the Libra female desires true affection, sympathy and interest...forever seeking the ideal companion. As a girlfriend, she is irresistible...as a wife she is intriguing, fun to be with and essentially feminine. As a mother, she is not one to necessarily concentrate unduly on her children, but she is nonetheless devoted and does radiate an affection and warmth that will spell security to any offspring she might have.
The Pisces Moon is a senstive and creative Moon, being artistic, intuitive and most probably psychic. This Moon is most assuredly a dreamer. The Pisces Moon keeps emotions hidden, although the inherent extreme sensitivity makes this Moon sympathetic to the plight of the less fortunate and may lead to community service. The Pisces Moon feels all things deeply.
In general, the personality of those whose Moon sign is in Pisces indicates a character driven by emotions. Whatever appeals to these persons will attract them...music, literature or poetry, for example. These are individuals who change their minds very easily and to others, will sometimes give the impression of unreliability. When the "going gets tough," those ruled by a Pisces Moon will become discouraged. They adore change and any form of routine seems to literally drain the life from these persons. There is an easygoing nature here, but there is also a tendency toward shyness. Overall, the Pisces Moon is not perceived to be a favorable influence, often associated with glandular problems and obesity. On the outside, those governed by this Moon appear to be quite happy, but inwardly there is frequently depression and even a distinct lack of a sense of humor. At some time during the life of those who fall under the jurisdiction of the Moon in Pisces, hospitals, prisons or some other type of institution is almost certain to play an important role in some fashion. However, this aspect needs to be put into context and perspective with the rest of the individual's horoscope before any definite conclusions may be drawn, and it is vital that these subject not become discouraged. The Pisces Moon can be one of the most appealing, sociable, entertaining and humorous of all the Moon Influences dependent upon other factors. There is a flair for music here...either composing, writing or simply listening and appreciating the art. These are emotional and romantic souls with creative ideas, a strong imagination and a desire to make the world a better place, although there is a distinct distaste for anything which is ugly or disharmonious. Perhaps the major key word for the Pisces Moon individual is sacrifice. If the need of another is perceived to be greater than that of the person governed by this Moon, then he or she will willingly give all he or she has to the person in need. These people possess a strong psychic awareness and have the ability to pick up on subtle signs and signals that others might miss. The greatest danger for a person who falls under the jurisdiction of the Moon in Pisces is the tendency to become a martyr and allow personal needs to fade into insignificance. Boundaries are difficult to define by these individuals and they could easily be guilty of getting involved in the problems of others without being asked...although the intentions are always of the highest caliber.
