Libra: Cardinal-Air

If you're born between September 23 and October 24, you are the sign of Libra.

Libra marks the seventh sign of the zodiac. It rules the stomach area. (You know, where you get the butterfly feeling when you're in love).

Libra is an air sign. Air signs are known for being the intellectual, social minded ones.

Venus, the second planet from the sun, is named for the Roman goddess of love and beauty.

Fun fact: The Libra zodiac sign is the only sign to be represented by a planet that is named after a female.

Venus has a double role since it has dual rulership over Libra and Taurus. As a result, Venus represents two main areas of our life: love and money. “Love and money” is actually a simplistic interpretation of Venus... Grace, charm, and beauty are all ruled by Venus.

The zodiac sign of Libra is masculine by nature (the planets alternate feminine and masculine energy).

Libra Decans

What is a decan? Every sun sign is divided into three 9-10 days slots, each of which is a Decan—a set ruled by a different planet, and contains different characteristics. This is why you can have two people with the same sign having completely different personalities!

  • September 23 through October 2
  • October 3 through October 12
  • October 13 through October 22

Libra and Libra Rising from an Outside Perspective

Libras can be misunderstood by others on the outside who don't understand Libra's innate need for balance. If someone asks a question, the Libra automatically weighs the pros and cons and then gives an answer.

If the other person is looking for a direct answer they may become frustrated at Libra and think they're trying to be difficult when in all actuality they are just thinking how their mind operates as an Air sign. Air signs are the intellectuals who love logic, like Gemini and Aquarius.
