Libra

 

There is something to this sign...I guess its the confidence 'coz I have seen all Librans I know, proudly admit ."Yes, I am a Libra". We love talking about ourselves. Thats why I am putting up this section about the smartsy and artsy Libras.

 

Being a Libra myself, anything I say praising our innumerable virtues should probably be taken with a grain of salt. ( I can see you already shaking your head in dismay!)RotaEye.gif

The Libran

by Dorian Cleavenger

Libra, we are the most easygoing sign of the zodiac filled with charm, elegance and a gift of making people feel important. We love to surround ourselves in peaceful settings and try to avoid friction at all costs. Having a flair for diplomacy allows us to see each side of an argument. Furthermore, it makes us an asset in business dealings (I hope my boss knows this). Having our element as an Air sign means the typical Libra is intellectual and communicative. We are usually well versed and knowledgeable.

 

I am Libra - I choose the way that leads between the two great lines of force.

 

Libra in me:

I am a Libra with a Libran ascendant. I always think the classic description of a libra personality fits me well. Coz: a concern for peace and conflict resolving, a tendency to see more than one side of an issue, a concern for visual beauty and interest in visual arts, a tendency to analyse, gain energy from thoughts and ideas, putting high value on friendship, love and romance.

 

Like all Libras, I have a great appreciation for Love and Romance... But being constantly hesitant, like all Libras again, I'm still looking for the "The ideal of love in this modern world". I am responsible and balanced towards different situations of life. I hate to be mis-judged, and really care what other people think of me. I love a harmonious life. (We definitely are the jolliest sign ;). Establishing good and solid personal relationships is very important to me.

 

I love to debate but not to quarrel. I have some strong artistic tendencies and a refined sense of style (heheheh!). Like the typical Libra I am sophisticated, non-judgemental, eloquent and objective but also very indecisive. I have driven a lot of people up the wall because of my apparent indecision. Infact the most difficult thing for me to do is make a choice. No wonder my vocabulary is full of words like  "maybe", "perhaps", "on the other hand", etc.! I am unwilling to make snap decisions on the spur of the moment, I prefer instead to mull things over until I am sure. I might appear to be  self-oriented and like to get things my way, its not my fault...its  air cardinal sign (chuckles..)

 

I enjoy the comforts life has to offer. I love doing things which are aesthitically pleasing like Fashions, clothing, cosmetics, jewellery, architecture, interior decoration etc. As I am always in need of love, I need a partner who is very romantic. I hate the Libran tendency to put on weight (Its the procrastination I guess). I am a great food freak too. Caution: I can be a little temperamental at times. While I dont like arguments,I am a perfectionist and my criticisms could upset you at times. Frequent moodswings are my trade mark.

 

Libra I am not:

I dont shy away from the rougher side to life like most librans. I dont get obsessed with physical appearances. Unlike the subtle nature of Librans, I display anger easily.

The great strength of the Libra-born is in their drive for peace and harmony. Their ability to obtain balance and cooperation from a disparate group is un paralleled. Their skill at seeing all sides of a situation makes them one of the most just characters of the Zodiac.

 

They can easily "walk a mile in another man's shoes." This kind of magnanimous outlook is a boon in relationships and makes those born under this sign a pleasure to deal with in the give and take of affairs of the heart. As befits their beautiful world, Librans love to be loved and lusted after, although they may initially do so from a safe distance (at least internally).

 

A person born under the sign of Libra has a very strong need to share their life with someone, so establishing good and solid personal relationships is very important to them. Indeed, Librans do not seem to function properly unless they are relating in harmony with another person. Librans hate to be lonely. It is not that they do not like their own company but they are rather gregarious individuals who crave companionship. Anyone who can bring Libra to an open state, who can get them to think less and feel more, will be rewarded with a grateful and passionate lover.

 

Librans are happiest when they're in a relationship. They are seductive and attractive, and their cultural awareness and talkative nature make them shine in the social situations they so enjoy. Because of their social nature, they can be vain or overly dependent on others approval.  They are usually controlled and rational, but at times they may be self-indulgent. Because their efforts are mentally rather than emotionally motivated, Librans tend to be very judicial; they are good at diplomacy and compromise. Because they are generally reluctant to face confrontation, people born under Libra learn to be persuasive, courteous, and adaptable. But this may also make them seem cold and unemotional or manipulative. They are team workers, skilled at cooperative action, but they can also be self-doubting. Open minded and always polite, they have a strong sense of loyalty because of their ability to put themselves into other people's shoes.

 

Every soul shines in the stars at night,
Each character defined by their illuminating light
The characters that roam, are you and I
Broken in twelve, true gems of the sky
