Sun Enters Libra 2011: The Year Ahead
Libra, The Balance
September 23 to October 23
Modality: Cardinal
Element: Air
Ruler: Venus
Keywords: Balanced, just, charming, diplomatic, artistic, sociable, passive, indecisive, sophisticated, accommodating, kind, likable, respectful
As a Libra you are a charming people-pleaser. You make a natural mediator, not only putting people at ease in any situation but also making sure that peace and harmony are kept. You view things objectively and with a sharp mind, but you can be tripped up by your own indecisiveness in your quest for fairness. You have an eye for sophistication and beauty, being ruled by Venus, and will never be seen in less than your best.
Libras enjoy a wide circle of friends and contacts, but your partner is your true anchor; your relationship with your partner is far stronger than any other you have, and you dislike doing anything without them. You feel lonely without a companion. This strong need for a soul mate may make you confuse lust for love. Your opposite sign, Aries, could be the ultimate match, but a Leo or Sagittarius are compatible as well.
A career working with public would suit you well, and a job with a friendly, social workplace is a must. You can expect many career-related changes throughout your life, but you easily stay on top of jobs and trends with your intuition. You do have excellent wealth potential through wise financial management; this shouldn’t be a problem for you, as you are thrifty and judge each purchase before it is made.
You have a strong intuition, and this “gut feeling” shouldn’t always be ignored in favor of weighing yourself down by a list of pros and cons.
For the year ahead:
Affirmation: Knowledge is my quest.
- Jupiter began its year-long transit of Taurus (your eighth house) on June 4. This transit has the maximum potential to boost your bank account, and since this influence only occurs every twelve years, be sure to take advantage of it.
- Saturn continues its two and a half year journey through your sign, which means that you can expect some personal introspection as well as to reap what you’ve sown for the past few years, whether positive or negative.
- Uranus is in Aries, where it will remain for the next eight years. Here in your seventh house, you can expect changes (the trademark of Uranus) in your close relationships (seventh house themes). Some long-term relationships will end, while new people will enter your life. Uranus in the seventh house is also known for “love at first sight” relationships, which may be in your future.
- Pluto in Capricorn, your fourth house, brings about significant changes in home and family. This could mean relocation, remodeling, or even just reflecting on your childhood and family life. This transit is a long one (until 2024), so this transformation will not be a rapid one.
