I hear about it all the time, I get b-day presents connected to my date that have to do with it, and I don't get it exactly. I know that I am a libra. What does it mean?
I was just wondering if anyone has the time right now to explain to me some things about myself (my zodiac, if you say it like that), and any other random info on the subject.
How does it help you in life? What does it do, what's it mean?
Anything?
Thanks!|||Astrology
The actual beginnings of astrology are lost in history. From the Old Babylonian period (1800-1700 B.C.) we have the first records of attempts to correlate such simple, basic problems as famine, death, or war with the positions of the stars and planets. These records were kept over a wide range of territory, from what is now Turkey to Iraq and Iran. The “Venus Tablets of Ammisaduqa,” recording the motions of the planet Venus, were themselves copies of earlier observations made in the time of King Ammisaduqa, tenth ruler of the First Dynasty of Babylon, circa 1626 B.C.
In the earliest times, omens derived from astronomical observations were applied solely to the rulers or to matters of public welfare; it was some time before other, ordinary individuals were permitted, by law, to have forecasts made for them. In Rome, astrology was so popular at one period that Caesar Augustus (63 B.C. - A.D. 14) forbade its use as too dangerous to the proper conduct of government.
Astrology was, in its beginnings, a genuine search for knowledge——an attempt to find, in the configurations of the stars and planets, some meaning for humans that might enable them to ascertain something about the future, as if that future were written, obscurely but gloriously, in the heavenly patterns that nightly present themselves to observers.
Only five planets——Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn—— were known to the early observers. Since they were named after gods and were believed to represent the actual bodies of the gods, the movements of those objects against the background of mythical figures represented by the constellations seemed important. It was that relationship of god to “sign” that was the basis for the notion that the fortunes of humanity were to be found by examining the night skies.
There were two divisions to astrology at first. Horary astrology dealt with measuring motions of the stars and planets and thereby predicting their configurations. This division eventually grew into astronomy. Horary astrology was essential for performing the second type, judiciary astrology, the popular aspect that offered——and still offers——predictions and trends to the clients.
Such a notion is seductive because it seems to make life simpler. It attributes everything from interpersonal relationships to the destiny of nations to the stars. It appears to eliminate the understandable confusion offered by life, confusion created both by the advances of new technology and by highly specialized knowledge that are beyond the reach and comprehension of the average person, and it seems to remove the need for personal responsibility, handing it all over to fate but allowing a glimpse into the future that might provide some advantage.

Well, basically, it's just a bunch of "signs" connected to what constellations were in a certain spot when you were born. Like, the libra constellation was closer, or in allignment with something (im not sure) when you were born. so you are a libra "sign". some people believe that you can look at these constellations at any point in the year, and where they are (near a planet, comet crossing by) has to do with what is going to happen to you. I've gotten horoscopes that are right and completely wrong. For most people, it;s just fun. I think there is a religion based on it though.....
i could be wrong about some of this. but hope i helped.|||your sun sign ''libra'' is the sign the sun was in at the time you were born, therefore it is believed to have a powerful influence over you,from your personality,characteristics,likes/dislik…

The Scales
September 23 - October 22
The seventh sign of the zodiac is concerned with:
* partnership, relationships
* ideas, opinions, politics, diplomacy
* music, harmony, balance, romance
* tact, argument, self-control
* good manners, personal appearance
* refinement, sophistication, good taste.
* rational thought, ideas for social well-being
Elemental Quality
Libra is the cardinal sign of the zodiac. It can be likened to a finely tuned wind instrument, producing powerful, moving music in perfect harmony.
Air is the breath of life, and cardinal air is a metaphor for ideas put into action. Libras are doers rather than thinkers, although they may spend a long period thinking about a situation before making a decision and acting upon it.
Spiritual Goal
To learn the meaning of selfless love.
The Libran Personality
These are the general personality traits found in people who are typical of Libra. An unhappy or frustrated Libra may display some of the not-so-attractive traits.
Positive Negative
* Cooperative * Narcissistic
* Good companion * Indolent or sulky
* Artistic * Fearful
* Refined * Indecisive
* Has clear opinions * Manipulative
* Good negotiator * Overbearing
* Very strong beliefs * Flirtatious
* Loving and romantic
* Sense of fair play
* Able to lead on behalf of good causes
* Uses intellect when going into action
* Sincere
* Charming
* Communicative
* An excellent mediator
Secret Libra
Inside anyone who has strong Libran influences is a person who is terrified of being alone. The fear is usually well controlled so the typical Libra always looks calm, collected, and in charge of any situation.
Good-natured and loving, Libras can also be petulant, and even objectionable, when asked to take orders. Similarly, they are extremely intelligent, yet sometimes gullible; they enjoy talking to people, yet can also be very attentive listeners.
Ruling Planet and Its Effect
Venus rules the zodiac sign of Libra, so anyone whose birthchart has a strong Libran influence will tend to be a gentle, loving peacemaker -- until the scales tip too far and need to be adjusted.
In astrology, Venus is the planet of values, self, possessions, beauty, and love. Libras tend to express these attributes in words and action.
