The Scales

Libra is the Seventh sign of the Zodiac. It is sometimes referred to as the Balance. Libra is the only inanimate Sign of the Zodiac, the other eleven representing either human or animal forms. Those born under this Sign are natural arbitrators and diplomats, constantly seeking balance and harmony. In short, they are sociable, cheerful and charming souls. Perhaps the greatest fault of this Sign is indecision. Libra individuals find it difficult to make up their minds and strongly dislike taking sides.

About Your Sign...
Librans have elegance, charm and good taste. They are naturally kind, gentle, and lovers of beauty, harmony (both in music and social living) and the pleasures that these bring. They have good critical faculty and are able to see the two sides of an argument. Pisceans do not like being challenged about their opinions, for once they have reached a conclusion, it’s truth seems to them self-evident. Their characters are on the whole balanced, diplomatic and even tempered.
Librans are sensitive to the needs of others and have the gift of understanding the emotional needs of their companions and meeting them with their own innate optimism. They are very social human beings. They loathe cruelty, viciousness and detest conflict between people, so they do their best to cooperate and compromise with everyone around them, and their ideal for their own circle and for society as a whole is unity.
Their cast of mind is artistic rather than intellectual, though they are usually too moderate and well balanced to be avant garde in any artistic endeavor. They have good perception and observation and their critical ability, with which they are able to view their own efforts as well as those of others, gives their work integrity.

Ideal Job
Librans dislike coarse, dirty work. Although some are modestly content, others are extremely ambitious. With their dislike of extremes they make good diplomats but perhaps poor party politicians, for they are moderate in their opinions and able to see other points of view. They can succeed as administrators, lawyers, antique dealers, civil servants and bankers, for they are trustworthy in handling other people's money. Some Librans are gifted in fashion designing or in devising new cosmetics; others may find success as artists, composers, critics, writers, interior decorators, welfare workers or valuers, and they have an ability in the management of all sorts of public entertainment.
