Voice of Astrology Horoscope for Libra, 2011

In Libra, relationships are primary as Venus' role however money and resources are also in there as well.  The scales are the symbol represented by this very fair minded sign. 

Libra natives are usually very well put together as they need to present to the world the best face that they can muster.  Refined and articulate can be said about them also.  Art and culture are necessary as extra additives.  In Libra the glyph is representative of the setting Sun.  The night time is our lonely time, and this propels them to find a relationship  to quell the loneliness. And as with all things, especially relationships, we are all a product of our past.  Libra needs relationships to show them a reflection of themselves.  They are at their best in a committed relationship.  They will often frustrate their friends as they really have a difficult time making a decision.  This can be found innate in their sign as they can see all sides in a situation, and as such, have difficulty choosing which avenue to take. 

This is also an exceedingly difficult situation for them due to their own frustration with themselves.  Another signature for Libra is their need to be all things to all men.  They need to be liked by everyone, so this makes it even more difficult for them to take a stand on anything as they might offend someone.  They also ask friends opinions and advice however do not necessarily take this advice and they just want to get all sides of an issue.  Interestingly enough most people ask advice of the Libra personality and get very good answers to their problems.  They are natural diplomats and have a strong sense of justice as well as a sparkling wit.

Libra makes great counselors and often the law attracts them.  Their natural executive mind can be an asset in all types of business dealings. 

Libra has a well developed sense of how to extract the most from an encounter.  They can see the best in others and have the ability to show the other person their strengths.  They often get along with another by seemingly to give in.  They get their way so easily in this manner.  Libran’s can create an endeavor without anyone becoming aware.  After all they are in fact a cardinal sign.  Cardinal in astrology means that they take action.  These Venusian souls can get away with so much without the rest of us being aware of them doing so. 

Libra's are known as the iron fist in the velvet glove.  If you are wanting to throw a party then invite a Libra to plan it.  It will be a success.  They know just how to put people and place mats together as well as music and food.  They can also plan it in their bathtub.  After all the best places for Libra are their bathtub and bed.  They do their best work there.  Yet these socially adept individuals rarely are the stay at home types.  Travel is important for them either physically or mentally.  Their minds are rarely inactive. 

In the physical body Libra rules the kidneys.  Kidneys filter out toxins.  In life if we do not filter out toxins ( people, jobs, family, and food ) we stay in an unhealthy lifestyle.  Thoughts to listen to for all of us.  We all have Libra somewhere in our charts.

What the Planets are Doing...

The Sun enters Libra on September 23rd at 2:05 am PDT.  It is the Autumnal Equinox or the beginning of the Fall Season. The leaves are turning and cooler temperatures are upon us all.

September 25th Mercury begins passage through Libra.  Our thoughts can become more diplomatic and we will find it easier to find humor in situations.  The Venus influence can help to make conversations lighter.

The New Moon on September 27th is at 4:09 am PDT. Write goals that are most important to you at this time.  It doesn't matter how many you write … best time is just after the New Moon occurs.

September 29th Rosh Hashanah begins.

October 8th Venus moves into Scorpio. Take a step back.  Intensity in relationships can happen.  Jealousy can happen.  Just be aware as the energy of Venus in Scorpio is passionate. This is not the happiest placement for light heated Venus but she really plays it to the hilt.

Yom Kippur is the same date (10/8) as Venus in Scorpio.

October 11th is the Full Moon. 

Mercury leaves Libra and moves into Scorpio on October 13th.  Our thoughts can become more obsessive and powerful.  Mercury is not necessarily happy in a water sign but here it can create drama.  Who doesn't like drama------ in someone else. Sukkoth happens this day also.

VENUS

Venus spends her energy supplying you with your favorite people, places, and things. If you want chocolate, music, flannel sheets, or the coworker you've got a mad crush on, it's your Venus that tell you how to get it. Venus enjoys beauty and comfort. She shows how to attract what you love--especially people. When you're being charming, whether it's by using your manners or by adorning yourself, she's in charge of all behavior that is pleasing to others--social, chit-chat, smiles, hugs, and kisses. Whenever you're pleased, satisfied, or content enough to purr, it's your Venus who made you feel that way. Since money is one of the ways that you draw the objects we love to us, she's also in charge of finances.

Venus relates to your senses--sight, smell, taste, touch, and sound--the body receptors. After all, it is the senses that tell us what feels good and what doesn't. She responds to your desire for beautiful surroundings, comfortable clothing, and fine art.
