Interpretation of the natal chart can be thought of in terms of three major facets of the individual. How you appear to others, your innermost desires and aspirations, and what you are really like. The characteristics associated with your Sun sign, Libra, are not absolutes and should be seen only as likely dispositions.

Libra is perhaps the least understood of all signs. This is because it is very difficult to know what a Libran is thinking. Renowned for indecisiveness, the problem is not the ability to make a decision, but rather that Libran people have an insight that enables them to evaluate situations from several points of view. Librans invariably understand both sides of an argument. You will mostly opt for a compromise rather than a confrontation. Many famous diplomats have Libra as their Sun sign. It is important for you to be able to express yourself and for emotional relationships to have a measure of give and take. Dominating individuals are seldom the lifelong partners of a Libran. Those of the seventh sign can rely on their intuition and will invariably possess a well-developed sense of justice. Librans like to be in love, sometimes rushing into emotional relationships before the other is ready. In these circumstances, you are easily taken advantage of.

In career terms, Librans needs partners and should not be left to their own devices. Libran indecisiveness and extravagance should be moderated by the partner. It is difficult for you to function in harsh and unpleasant environments. More often than not, Librans are artistic and musical.

The Libran parent is easygoing, very affectionate, and not a disciplinarian, except in matters of dress-sense and good manners. The Libran child is charming and obedient. Libran children should be encouraged to think for themselves and to develop artistic talents.
