Libra Season Glamour Guide
This season is all about playful balance! Think floral dresses with combat boots, formal dresses with sneakers, etc! Let’s PLAY!
Hi lovely Libra Season! Ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty, abundance, pleasure and self-love, Libra energy is harmonious, charismatic, social, whimsical, communicative, fair and flirty! As a cardinal sign, Libra also guides us into the season of fall and the last quarter of the year while giving us the spark of energy needed to power through the rest of the year with enthusiasm, hope and joy.
As a sign represented by the scales, Libra energy is all about balance, harmony and justice and as such, Libras have a natural talent and drive towards diplomacy, building and maintaining community as well as bridge-building. Additionally, because Libra is an air sign, they are highly curious, intellectual and require constant stimulation by way of socialization, problem-solving, entertainment and even gossip. And because Libra has that pleasurable Venusian flavor, Libras also consume and process art at high speeds and are thus well-versed and up to date with all things art! Music in particular from my own observations!
Where Taurus (the other sign ruled by Venus) focuses on pleasures that are experienced through the flesh like food, fashion and decor, Libras flavor is a little more…airy, for lack of a better term, lol! By that I mean that their pleasure is experienced through the mind by way of things like music, art and poetry.
These fun-loving and compassionate beings also have a heavy Saturnian influence as Saturn is exalted in the sign of Libra which to be honest, confused me for a long time but has made more and more sense the longer I’ve been able to observe Libra natives in action because despite their flair for sweet whimsicality, there is also a sternness there that is needed to exact justice and Libras can’t stand to witness any kind of apathy and as such, they are the wielders of the scales of justice and the gavel that strikes the sentence.
In the tarot, the sign of Libra corresponds to the Justice card which has a bit of a harshness to it that I originally thought was uncharacteristic of Libra until I discovered Libra’s Saturn exaltation and then, it all clicked! In order to exact justice you have to have the ability to look at things objectively and most of the time that is easier said than done but that Saturnian influence gives Libras a distinct ability to be objective while maintaining compassion. This level of discernment is what gives Libras the capacity to be so diplomatic and strategic while their Venusian quality sugarcoats that razor sharp edge with a graciousness that is characteristic of dear Libra.
