The Scales
September 23 - October 22

Oh you graceful Libra. How you float so elegantly through this life. With balance. With poise. With beauty. This makes you extremely well received by others.

You rarely cause a stir and are always at the top of the guest list for a party. People love to associate with you. You are the belle of the ball.

Your beauty comes from an unmistakable inner harmony. A harmony that comes naturally but must also be maintained through self-care and self-awareness. You are your best when you are able to lead a balanced life. When you are able to eat a balanced diet and maintain a balanced social life. When you are able to find the middle ground between hard work and down time. Life, unfortunately, doesn’t always let us do that so easily.

2018 isn’t any different. Mars is going to have several weights leaning on you. Personal weights. Professional weights. Financial weights. It is testing to see if you can keep your balance when things aren’t so smooth. Remember you are born to do this. Wake up an extra hour early to eat a good breakfast. Meditate in a conference room between meetings. Make sure always to get a good night’s sleep. Even with extra effort you may still find yourself drowning. Good news is Venus wants to remind you of another thing you’re gifted at – partnership.

Call upon others for what you need. Let a co-worker help you solve a problem. Talk through your relationship issues with a trustworthy friend. Ask your partner to go in on a financial investment. This is where things are going to start getting easier. The balance will come from leaning back on others. The growth will come from trusting those individuals to support you. How relieving it is to share some of our burden with others.

See who shows up for you. This year is going to teach you who matters. So that you can turn the tables and decide who makes it to the top of your emotional guest list. Be discerning, fair and kind. And as always, do it with a smile.
