Libra (The Scales)

Dates: September 23rd – October 23rd
Element: Air
Planet: Venus
Those born under the cardinal water sign, represented by the scales of Libra, are easy going and friendly individuals. Often this nature gives them a simple charm and a calmness that allows them to flow easily through many conflicts in their lives. They can be incredibly direct and intelligent, which they can channel into an ability to persuade those around them. Though they might have this ability, often they choose to utilize it not for personal gain, but instead to maintain the balance and harmony they desire in life. Libra is at its best when it seeks to direct this impulse outwardly, trying to make the world a better place.
