CUSP DATES FOR LIBRA

24 September – 23 October

The exact time of the Sun’s entry into each zodiac sign varies every year, so it’s impossible to list them all. If you were born a day either side of the dates above, you’re a ‘cusp’ baby. This means you may feel like you’re a blend of Libra/Virgo or Libra/Scorpio, or you may instinctively just know that you’re one sign right to your core.

Going deeper

If you want to know once and for all whether you’re a Virgo, Libra or Scorpio, you can look up your birthdate in a planetary ephemeris, of which there are plenty online. (See page 102 for more information.) This shows the exact moment the Sun moved into a new zodiac sign for the month you were born.

The Libra personality

You are an intellectual Air sign ruled by romantic, charming, Venus. As an Air sign you are one of the zodiac’s thinkers and communicators, and with relationship-oriented Venus as your ruler, you crave harmonious rapport, balance and fairness with everyone you encounter. You are one of the most sociable signs of the zodiac, and your desire to please others and dislike of conflict, means you sometimes sacrifice your own ambitions to keep the peace. Your astrological symbol is the Scales, representing your fair judgment, excellent taste and love of symmetry. Because you are so concerned with making the right decisions it can take you a long time to weigh up all the options, but when you have made up your mind, it’s usually set in stone … unless too many people disagree with you, in which case you may have to rethink!

THE QUEST FOR LOVE

As the seventh of the 12 zodiac signs, you are the first to have an opposite number, and your longing for a partner is one of your strongest motivations. You were born to share, discuss and consider your thoughts and feelings with others, and you need strong relationships to make you feel more complete. It’s natural for you to ponder others’ opinions before you make up your own mind – even if you don’t necessarily agree with them. Bouncing ideas back against someone else somehow makes your own thoughts feel more solid and real. You find it easier to see yourself through the eyes of other people, and so their good opinion seems essential if you are to have good opinion of yourself.

Ruled by affectionate, amorous Venus, romantic love is one of your highest priorities. You are usually either in love or pursuing a new romance. And your relationship with your other half will usually dominate your thoughts. As a mentally-focussed Air sign, you are in love with the idea of love – yearning for another, the uniting of soulmates, and the wonder of romantic possibilities. Sex is, of course, a beautiful part of the deal but the physical aspects of love aren’t usually as important to you than the companionship, friendliness and sharing.
