Liberal Libra,..

Of all the zodiac signs Libra is possibly the most graceful in appearance and gesture.
Idyllic in nature, the Libran believes in a grand new society, the Liberty of such new society, as long as it doesn’t mess with their partners or emotional interests that is.

Dreams of a new society where every one is free and err yeah,... equal. Pity you actually have to walk past those lower classes in the streets, but then ah yes, we have pity as a grand human trait to our disposal. Libras archetype is the scales of justice see, an in animate object, the only one of the whole Zodiac. So hence there is nothing out there out of balance in the perfect Libran equation. Even if there are casts in society, the Libran tarries with this not. With their forward glance all they can see is the positive, the angelic, well until insecurity creeps in.

To tell you the truth, Librans are probably the least of my clientele. One would assume for their lack of issues, but inside information has it that it is for their pompous vanity, some authors going so far as to title them as the great Narcissists of the Zodiac.

As such then yes, when those unsettling emotions come to the fore we see the darker side of the Libran who just can’t handle their lovers affections steered in any direction but theirs. Hence the Libra often is a do nothing but accept the glory of social position. Unfortunately the Air signs require the heat of action to set their currents in motion, thence their all knowing rhetoric abounds. I know this see for I myself am Aquarian and we all know how uppity I can sound, especially after a good deal of aggravation.

With the Air signs we regularly see the social edge coming through, oh so eager to talk about any side of any equation, but seldom able to deal with the emotional underpinnings. In fact we are known to be rather emotionally immature. So it is with the Libra who often ends up head long into divorce after divorce. Often able to steer clear of such more so than Virgoans, the Libran is plagued by death and its harsh realities.

As such then our airy Libran often tends to seriousness once this death or loss comes into their life. It can’t always be about me!? You mean I have to examine myself like I pose to everyone else? Exactly! So as such again, we are able to evince this vain struggle for personal attention from the Libran, who indeed seems only to want to appear as such a just scale of human decency.

Lets not forget that Hitler himself had Libra rising at the time of his birth, “Just us” overtakes “Justice”, as we see the new society unfolding and the love for personal aggrandisement.

America comes into view here too as a classic Libran Candidate with its Cancerian Sun Square to Saturn in Libra. Just us for all, erm, then for those other folk, well, we have our own set of rules for them. Recent comments by US diplomats to show this very clearly.

"Russia's actions are an affront to civilized standards and are completely unacceptable," Cheney said. "Russia has offered no satisfactory justification for the invasion, nor could it do so." – well aren’t we still waiting for confirmation on WMD’s in Iraq !?

"The free world cannot allow the destiny of a small independent country to be determined by the aggression of a larger neighbour," Secretary of State Rice told reporters in Washington. – again here we see the galling Libran double standards considering that in Afghanistan and Iraq these independent democracies weren’t even neighbours but on the other side of the globe.

So as such yes folk, expect the tables to turn in the month of Libra as Hypocrisy reaches new heights. I think this is obvious in our own Nation at present and a testimony to the pity it is that we can’t hold the stars as veritable proof of our human follies. Till next time then, know and exercise your rights.

Accountability reigns,..

Very interesting time indeed,..
This being Virgoan month one expects to find issues surrounding clean ups, maintenance and good old overhauls, dare i mention catastrophes as well here. The scrap yard we mentioned last time around regularly gets a sifting through to see what’s of use and what’s ready for the can. Diets too, could come under the spotlight now as this is the sign that governs general health and the intestinal tracts. All the filtering organs of the body, if under prior stress can find their overload here. Expect tummy bugs then too.

This then moves over to the general working class of a nation, as such again then. As the working organs of the body, we should see strikes etc here as they attempt to assert their weight as such. In the USA for example we can see all this in the recent party conventions which saw considerable disgust from these working organs being displayed. As such then again with astrology, the microcosm and the macrocosm are similarly affected.

This indeed should be a month the well resonates with our introductory articles over a year ago when Saturn made his entrance into Virgo. All the issues I spoke of there hence should come to light here. Health issues the world over, Earth shifts and odd weather behaviour, crop failures and issues with pests on a grand scale. Further regarding the dearth of the economy and that of our corrupt officials should come here too.

There is a very interesting period focusing around the 13th September. One can see large gatherings. Issues over individual rights and laws and then well, I gather, the new deal in that there are no real rights left for many folk in the modern democratic façade. For example I cite the recent hard hand displayed by police in the USA at these conventions.

The issue of the peer group trust failure should be high on the agenda again for our kids at school. Again, there is something about the parameters being to broad or vague, the group too large. Again the issue of depression ensues for how real can I possibly be whilst my friends still aren’t interested in my company. The posh seems to prevail here and well, might this just be the time for youngsters to get over it and be themselves regardless of feeling accepted or not, although odds are I see them all flocking to the same ice-cream van. We don’t teach our kids independence anymore. We urge them to conform, to deny their independence. Even if we have to force feed them chemicals as we “lovingly” steer them in “right” direction. Funny how cocaine derivatives aren’t suitable for us, but seem good enough for our children.
Think individuality, think Ritalin. Think drug-dealer, think your friendly pharmacy. I don’t know what the big fuss is about really, I mean this is democracy. If I want drugs, I want easy access to them. If I want to drug my children, I want support from my social institutions and accord from my drug dealer to avoid all that inner turmoil you gather. I mean, im free to choose right!? Wrong, you will pay if you want any choice and odds are society will be the first debtor at your door, creeping in to remind you of your guilt for not pandering to established norms.
Think individuality, think Life! If you argue that coke doesn’t possibly add life!? Just check in at your nearest government primary school, you will be surprised at how chipper all the kids look and well look at how quickly your society can take control of your very own life nowadays.
Think individuality, think for yourself!

Virgo's Dirty Labours,..

If there were a place where all data were logged, a person who could run commentary on such constant precipitous volumes of data would more than likely be the Virgoan. They appear as librarians, book-keepers, scrap dealers and such.. so this week we pay homage to the Virgoan, the great whinger.
Of the Earth sign trilogy, you can bet that if you're busy with it, they've already done it and very possibly with half the hassles you're experiencing. Considering Virgoans usually have the gift of the gab, you can bet you're going to hear about it pretty often too.
Should have's abounding, Virgoans' banter is typically not of the emotional kind. It's regularly of the bric-a-brac type, technicalities flourishing out of every crevice. Weighing, measuring and commentating all the way, one pauses to wonder why they feel so compelled to chatter so. As meticulous as they are, imagine if that were internalised!
As with all earth signs it's that fundamental size, issue that marks the Virgoan. Fires have to be the brightest, mountains have to be the largest, the most dominating on the scene, the most steadfast, a bastion of stability. Ponder here then on the temperament that lends itself toward this infernal need for substantiation. Melancholy reeks, for it will never be enough.
Some early physically strenuous environment often sets the Virgoan's life stage and goodness, are they adepts in the art of defence.
This is actually a big lesson for Virgoans to crack. Mountains take millennia to manufacture, so take your time, you're only human. Oh, and mountains/dirt, by their very nature are dirty. So well, get over it, manure stinks and often, the stinkier the better!
Give or take some, with Virgoans we can always assume that there will be chatter with the neighbours in some way, with the security guards, with the sales staff, even the cleaners if need be. Often yes, about some dirt. The truth which really needs to be publicly demystified is how, with Virgoans, there is the very real "social disgust" complex. The old family car or the way their parents treated them in public. This is the deep rotten core of the Virgoan that spurs them on to order, order and more order. Nothing can be perfect enough. As if a stain that will not remove, the Virgoan scours at it. Unfortunately it's often only once ill health touches our Virgoan that they realize this chase is in vain and very energy consuming.
This complex is helped along by their earthy drive for food and sensuality. 'I think I am dirty, but this sure feels good. I think I am empty, but my tummy sure feels full'.
Often there is something of the diet and the physical routine to notice with the Virgoan. So we can really see a gamut here from health freaks to real slobs. Both will have their day with their intestinal tracts. As will both have their day at the divorce court.
Again at both ends of the extremity, we find the poor Virgoans partner faced with continuous shlurrings based on the personal self worth and value issue the Virgoan just can't seem to grapple with. So relationships obviously buckle under such eternal, "poor me," strains. I mean, if you don't feel right about it, you are going to itch and scratch at it, no? Some day your partner is going to throw hands in the air and give up the chase. For the mature viewer, all your commentary is a direct reflection of your constant feeling of dis-ease. Eternally portraying the happy-go-lucky people, Virgoans labour to get those darn chips off their shoulders in vain. Being the sports commentator and the caged athlete, the Virgoan very often is stuck in a remorseless feud with the ghosts of time. Shadowboxing till the end.
