The Diplomat
Libra is the sign of the Diplomat – the part of you who values bridging the gap between you and others, and between who you are and what you do, what you say, and what you attract. She seeks alignment in every sense of the word.
When the Sun moves into Libra, we reach the Autumn equinox, one of the two times during the year when there is an equal amount of day and night – a balance of polarities, which is a key theme for Libra season. In Libra, we seek to balance and align our lives for our highest good.
Libra is the Cardinal part of Air, which means that She actively seeks ways to relate, connect and harmonize. She is the part of you that seeks balance and a mutual exchange with the people and structures of your world. She asks that you strive to “equally yoke” yourself within all manner of your relationships – be they with spouses, lovers, friends, communities, careers or outer events. That means that you must be honest with yourself snd others about who you are, what you need, and what you are willing to give.
When planets pass through Libra, we are all learning lessons of justice, equity, balance, harmony, peace, and what it means to maintain these qualities in our lives and in our world.
Libra season (sept 22 – Oct 22) and transits through your Seventh House ask you to attune yourself to what you really want and who you really are, so that you can authentically, honestly, and justly negotiate your relationships with others and your outer world.
