The Tao of Astrology
Libra Rising When Libra the graceful diplomat is rising, Aries the bold dare devil is setting. On a purely physical level, these people are the most attractive types, with soft elegant features and beautiful or handsome hair. Their refined, poised face usually sports a slightly pointed, thin nose, dimpled cheeks, and calm, charming eyes. To actualize their identity they need to express themselves artistically. Harmonious relationships are a continual yearning. Libra Rising is concerned with social or cultural grace and justice. Filled with diplomacy and courtesy, the etiquette and accommodating skills of Libra Rising are astonishing. The planet that reflects the sign of Libra is Venus. Its position in the chart by sign, house, and aspects will shape the expression of the persona. A Libra Rising person with Venus in Scorpio or in the 8th House of Eternal Mystery will be more secretive, passionate, and mysterious. While a Libra Rising person with Venus in Gemini or the 3rd House of Communication will act more intelligent, talkative, curious, and versatile. If Libra Rising is not expressing identity in a balanced, socially acceptable manner, then the shadow of vanity, indecisiveness, and people pleasing emerges. Spiritually, Libra Rising exists to harmonize the universe through fine attunement to the aesthetically pleasing art of nature. The spiritual artist’s endpoint lies in promoting and weighing individual contributions to society for the evolution of culture. This is the archetype of loving relationship that defines the midpoint of the zodiac cycle and brings life to its fulfillment. On the cosmic wavelength, this person can help others flow with the winds of love as they come to master the principle of balance through relationships and artistic expression. In the 7th House Aries dwells, governed and shaped by the planet Mars. In relationships, Libra Rising must plunge head first like a hunter in order to mold successful partnerships that stand the test of time. They need action, adventure, and excitement when engaging in the fire od passion with others intimately. Depending on the sign, house, and aspects of Mars, the kind of archetypal energy that Libra Rising needs will become apparent. People with a strong Arian charge will excite them considerably. If Mars is in Taurus in their chart, then they will be drawn to stability, sensuality, strength, and tranquility. If Mars has a trine to Uranus, then they will find harmony and grace amongst people who have that radical Aquarian electricity. In actualizing the axis of life, Libra Rising must learn to be assertive and decisive, a perfect warrior of the heart. Relationship and aesthetic expression define the path of self-mastery.
