Libra

Libra is a cardinal air sign ruled by Venus. The combination produces someone whose primary frame is RELATIONSHIP — Libra sees the world as a series of dyads, balances, considered exchanges. Strong Libra placements often have a refined aesthetic sense, an instinct for what's fair, and considerable social grace. The shadow side: difficulty making decisions (the scales keep tipping), conflict avoidance, an over-reliance on others' approval. Libra rules the kidneys and lower back and runs from approximately September 23 to October 22 — the autumn equinox, the moment of perfect day-night balance.
