Sanskrit verse to mean Òhow heavy do you weigh inÓ, or Òwhat is your
positionÓ. It is a bit deeper than just ÒscalesÓ. Libra is the only Movable Air
Sign. Libra is ruled by Venus and is the exaltation of Saturn, and the
debilitation of the Sun. All of these things tell us alot about Libra.
Where is that place, where KingÕs feel in danger, and workers feel really
good? Well, the open marketplace in the street. Libra is there in that market.
There we have the scales of commerce, the workers showing their goods,
collecting cash for their wares, and having fun talking to each other. So here
comes the King. HeÕs surrounded by those whom he overtaxes, heÕs
surrounded not by his army, but by workers. They taunt him, throw things at
him, and he has to run away in fear. In Libra, weÕre all equal. Libra is about
cloth, and goods, and talking, and being friendly, not taking sides, but
somehow just getting through the day. Libra is very practical and real.
Nobody can move around like Libra. As a movable air sign, itÕs Òout of hereÓ
constantly. DonÕt try to lock down Libra. As the exaltation of Saturn and the
Debilitation of Sun, itÕs not about being Òstrong, responsible, conservative and
stableÓ. No, forget those uptight qualities. Libra is a marketplace full of
hippies, who set up on one corner one day, and a different corner the next.
ItÕs a confusing array of colors, cloth, decorations, smiling painted faces,
clowns, music, balloons, honding horns, bullock carts, pickpockets and all the
things that an uncontrolled happy crowd of desperate living and breathing
beautiful humans can offer each other. No heavy decisions, no heavy
organization, just Òlets do something, lets make some money, lets have some
fun, can we go now?Ó
