In most of Western culture, there is a win/lose story—that is, the person who wins gets what they want, and the person who loses doesn’t get much of anything. Yet there is a better approach, and that’s about tackling things together, as a team. That way, everybody wins and nobody can lose—now or ever.
Standing my ground with those who are impossible requires persistence
The subject of making changes is a tricky one for Librans. Not just changes in your own life, but changes in the lives of others—and the fact that, as a Libra, you think all such things through, and in depth. You will discuss various options in your own life, what others are thinking about and then, often, discuss them further. As an air sign, while logic is important, that won’t keep you from having the same discussion several times.
The trick is to recognize that, as important as these ideas are for you as an air sign, ultimately, if you’re going to make changes in the world around you and what you do and think, you need to commit to those changes.
The perfectionist side of your nature wants to get things totally organized, so there is no anxiety about this. But of course, with each day, with each hour, changes arise anyway.
When you recognize that, when you embrace the fact that life and your world are constantly changing, not only will such matters no longer worry you, you’ll realize this is all about learning something new and important. First, we all came here to experience what life offers, and to grow and change because of that. Also, because it is about what you are learning, you can never get things wrong. If there is a secret, it is to plunge in and learn from those experiences.
Simply recognize that life is a game of choices: the choices you make, the choices others make, and sometimes the choices you make together. It is difficult because you get so lost in that game. Yet that is the fun of it. However, sometimes it is important to back off, and recognize that you’re playing a game. Do that, and instead of worrying about winning, you will enjoy the process.
Yes, there’s eating well, and yes, there is going to the gym. But there is a better way to deal with health problems, and that is to take a deep breath, then take another. As a Libra, you often forget to breathe when you’re worried, and then wonder why you’re so uptight. Try it. It’s an easy way to deal with tension.

Yet there is a better approach, and that’s about tackling things together, as a team. That way, everybody wins and nobody can lose—now or ever.
The past few days have been demanding, if not just plain exhausting. Still, looking back on what you have faced up to—and have mostly managed to deal with—you should have a sense of accomplishment. Better yet, the decisions you have made will last longer than you imagined possible.
Libra: SEPTEMBER 22 – OCTOBER 21
Ruler: Venus
Symbol: The Scales
Element: Air
Flower: Rose
Being ruled by Venus, the goddess of elegance, beauty, and love, you as a Libra have an instinctive elegance and talent for making others—everybody you meet—feel special. This talent often becomes your career, and those personal links develop into a lifelong passion. Your flower is the rose; your herbs are redolent mint and sorrel; and ash and poplar are your trees. Jade, in its infinite shades, is your stone.
