Libra
September 24 - October 23
A balance weighs and measures; and so do Libra natives. Librans seek equality, harmony, and balance. The scales are also a symbol of justice. Libra's symbol is the only symbol in the zodiac that is inanimate (it is not represented by an animal or person).
Libra natives are generally thought to be sociable, somewhat intellectual souls. They have an almost innocent way about them that makes them very approachable. Generally quite eager to cooperate, Librans spend a lot of their time trying not to rock the boat.
In theory, Libras are peace-loving. In practice, they can quietly stir up all sorts of trouble with their ways. Because Libra enjoys balance in their lives, they seek the middle ground. In the process, they may end up trying to be everything to everyone. This is where their reputation for untruthfulness comes from. Generally, their untruths spring from a true desire for peace and fairness--although they may not be comfortable with direct and malicious trickery, they feel totally justified when they lie in order to avoid making waves. Peace at any price! In this sense, they seem harmless. But, what can result is quite a ruckus! People involved with Libras may crib about their lack of directness and their apparent inability to take a stand. Librans are experts at avoiding being the one to blame.
Some more powerful signs may consider Libra a little on the weak side. This is all a matter of opinion, however! Without Libra, life simply wouldn't be as fair.
Librans are known for comparing and thinking in relative terms, instead of in absolutes. This weekend is not just a good weekend, it's better than last weekend. These people are always looking for the "best" way or the "right" way to live. Harmony is the ultimate goal, but their idealism and high expectations can mean plenty of discontent. Since life presents all of us with an extraordinary amount of choices, if Libra doesn't learn to live in the moment at least some of the time, they'll be in a constant state of unrest. Libra comes across as very civilized and rather refined.
The Libra Man
The Libra male is a perfectly balanced specimen of a man. His is the sign of partnership, of equality, and of justice. He will strive to stay on an even keel, always trying to be objective. A Libran will often seek to do what he thinks is best for everyone. He believes that you can please everyone all of the time, if you study every possible perspective in any situation.
He is a pacifist and dislikes conflict. Nothing can be achieved with a temper tantrum and a Libra man will go to any lengths to avoid confrontation. He much prefers peace and quiet. He strives for harmony and balance. He'd rather talk things through and try to understand your side of the story, than slam doors or throw plates.
It's hard to be patient with a Libra man at times. Picking a movie to watch, what to eat, and where to meet – these questions may take some time to be answered if you leave it all up to him. It will be a firm, fair assessment of all the choices available. The Libra man is the ultimate agony uncle, a neutral judge, and an objective decision maker. He is the perfect friend when you need advice.
An Air sign, Libran is an intellectual of sorts and enjoys discussing his ideas with others. Libras are very good debaters, with an innate sense of fairness that leads them to weigh the merits and demerits of every argument.
Libra is ruled by Venus and the Libra man is an ambassador of the Goddess of Love. He has a penchant for beautiful things like jewels, sleek cars, and shiny gadgets. He also likes beautiful people, and the Libra man is in his prime at cocktail parties, the ballet, or the theater. He is suave and charming, and will always know just the right thing to say in any circumstance. The Libra man is a man of aesthetics, with a keen eye for beauty in people, objects, music and words.
