If you were born when Venus was in the constellation of Libra, the Scales…

You were born under the Venus-ruled sign of Libra, allying you with gifts of negotiation and an innate understanding of how to keep peace under times of stress and differences. A consummate politician, pleasing others also pleases you – for you take pleasure in others’ happiness (while knowing that when they’re happy, they’re also more likely to give you what you want!). This doesn’t mean everything is smooth sailing: you’ll be given plenty of opportunities to work out the difference between what’s best for others versus what’s best for you. But the Venus archetype, present at peace treaties, contract negotiations and important negotiations is so central to keeping everyone happy in a relationship, & you excel here. Smoothing feathers & looking great while doing it, while making everyone around you feel great, is such a forte for you, you’re admired, sought out for your diplomacy & people-skills and often financially rewarded for them. As you see other people’s points of view, honorably and fairly seek middle ground, you dignify others with your respect and good graces– an invaluable gift.
