The Sun Sign Libra

The Sun Sign Libra

October 5, 2001

I am confident the early Astrologers were most intrigued by the Sun. Our Sun is the most visible planet in the sky. If you meet someone uneducated about Astrology, they will at least know their "Sun" Sign. It is hard to ignore how physically and psychologically fundamental this giant planet is to our lives.

So, what is the Sun's Wisdom Teaching? Let's begin with the significance of this planet. The Sun is essential. Without it, there would be no life. Period. In Astrology, this translates to becoming aware of what is necessary each month when our Sun changes Signs. Our monthly activities revolve around the concepts and nature of the month's Sun sign.

Our Sun is currently in the sign of Libra (Sep 22-Oct 23). Libra is the sign of balance. The symbol for Libra is The Scales. Libra's primary concern is creating beauty and harmony, maintaining it, and then enjoying it. This month, the Sun in Libra's primary focal teaching is about creating calm and conscious control over the unbalanced things that may be occurring in ANY of your current life situations.

How can I do this? It takes a certain amount of surrender to see that all things are precise, even when they aren't what you wanted. The inherent truth is that "paradox" is part of life. It is the wisdom of opposites and equilibrium. A simple technique for understanding this is to take a breath. Now blow it out. Which was more important? The inhale or the exhale? Examine your life to see where you are pulled toward one side of things and not see the other. Every life situation is here to teach us the wisdom of balance and opposites. There is true beauty in that!!
