Venus in Libra: Grace, Balance… But Not Always
I’ve often thought that Bill Clinton looks an awful lot like an older, whiter version of the actor Will Smith. When the planet of beauty is in her own sign of Libra, you’d expect to find some real physical beauty. In particular, you might expect to find some perfectly balanced faces. Grace Kelly is always cited as an example of someone with a perfectly proportioned face. How about Beyoncé? For sheer glamour, it’s hard to bet Vivien Leigh or Rita Hayworth.

Astrology of Now: Open Enemies
Walk into Libra’s garden, the seventh house of the chart, and you will find yourself in a bower of sweet scented roses, treading on forget-me-nots, violas, love-in-the-mist. You might stroll down a lover’s walk through dripping wisteria to a summerhouse by a romantic lake. The seventh house is where you meet your match. But oh, we know our match is not always what we expected or wanted. It turns out to be not a lover, but an adversary, a rival, a competitor. This is the garden of partnership, but it is also called the house of “open enemies” — a delicious irony and a delicate insight into the […]
