Sun in Libra

Balancing, weighing, judging and reflecting are all attributes that Libra has become known for in astrological symbolism; the scales epitomising the longing to experience balance. With the Sun in Libra, you may be called to bring opposing factions into a peaceful alignment through mediating disagreements and arbitrating disputes. You have a vision of a peaceful world, free of conflict so no wonder you are skilled in mediation.

This quest for peace is deeply embedded in your psyche. Your internal images of peace and your innate ability to see the goodness in both the world at large and the individual calls you into diplomatic, social and relationship orientated professions. You are less likely to be the leader and more likely to be working behind the scenes depending on other aspects of your birth chart. For instance you may be more comfortable working in the secretarial pool rather than as the managing director. Pursuing peace for you might have begun in your childhood relationships with your siblings, schoolmates, team members and friends. The Libran child is often fated to be in the middle, appeasing the aggressor and comforting the victim. In victory you might sympathise with the team that has lost and in defeat you boost the sagging spirit of your own team members. You have the grace of being able to see past the faults in others into their potential, allowing you to be kind to those who have been offensive, and supportive to those who have been discouraging. You give confidence to the underdog, hearten the loser, and make friends with the unpopular, being blessed with the innate skill to bring opposing factions into alignment and include outsiders.

Part of your strategy for peace is to create an attractive environment so that the outer landscape inspires inner thoughts and feelings of beauty. By creating picturesque surroundings you are hopeful that unsettled and angry feelings will be calmed and peaceful thoughts will be restored. You strive to create an environment that inspires you to feel at peace, both at home and in your workplace. Your urge for harmony, symmetry and peace needs to be reflected in your vocation whether that is through your relationships with others or beautifying the environment.

Having an innate respect for humanity and empathy for every individual, you appreciate what is refined and developed. You want to create a better atmosphere, not through conquering or chastising, but by revealing a better option. To you this option is peace, the inclusion of all, harmony and understanding. You know that a civilised world begins with harmony and that your fate is to be an architect of the peace proposal. To find your vitality and spirit and to feel soulful in the world, make an effort for co-operation, diplomacy, gentleness, idealism, peacefulness and tactfulness.
