We're in the season of balance as the sun has entered the house of Libra. Represented by the Scales, Libra Season (September 23 - October 22) has quality of harmony.
Libras are known for being objective and fair. Just like the Scales of Justice, they seek balance in their life and want what's best for everyone. They work best in pairs and teams, and make sure that each member feels equally represented. Libras hate conflict, and want to find a compromise as soon as possible. They are good at strategy, which is why they can find the solution so quick. Libras are ruled by Venus and this makes them very sociable. They can make others feel comfortable and are always on the lookout to avoid a conflict before it starts.
