Libra is the "trader" -- represented by the Scales, a symbol of balance, which represents an endless attempt to equalize the situations of life.  You are very sympathetic and understanding, eager to learn the view of others.  But you assume that these are given with the same sincerity in which they are accepted, meaning like the scales themselves, you are very easily swayed.

The source of your energy is your desire to unite compatible forces into a cooperative team.  You are motivated to achieve fairness, mutual agreements and harmonious efforts.  Above all, you long for a balanced marriage or close partnership with one special person.

Usually you are a peacemaker and will strive for compromise and trade-offs to settle differences of those who are quarrelling.  You are a natural sales person and counselor, usually able to comprehend both sides of an issue.  But by the same token, this means that you often have great difficulty in making up your own mind.  Making frequent snap decisions and taking firm stands are hard for you.

You are a delightful companion, gentle, diplomatic, intelligent, thoughtful and charming, with a strong sense of justice and fair play.  However, at times you can be indecisive, fickle and dependent.

Your intuition is phenomenal -- you can instinctively recognize things, telling true from false, good from bad.  Some slighting remark or unkind thing coming from another person will trouble the Libra nature to no end, for you are so sincere, so soulful, so self-sacrificing, so thoroughly wrapped in the lives of others, that you expect others to be the same.

Your gift is your desire to communicate the objectives of harmony, beauty and justice to others.
