Thula (Libra) - The
Scale
Libra rules the space below the navel
of the Kala Purusha
The sign of Thule rises with it's head,
is strong during the day, has black complexion, is
rajoguni in nature; it resides in the West and wanders
on the earth; it is violent; is of Shudra Varna and
has medium sized body and is biped. It lord is
Venus.
Air - Libra seeks to follow a
fair and intellectual path.
Moveable - Libra will prefer the
challenge of starting new things rather than
perfecting the things they have already started or
being flexible enough to do either one.
Male - Libra is a positively
charged sign - given to action and external
life.
Rajas - Libra is primarily
motivated by the possibility of fulfilling a
desire.
Biped - Libra has 2 legs, which
shows and average capacity to move forward and
persevere through life, yet a more adaptable nature
than the quadrupeds. Two legged creatures move
laterally with more ease.
Medium - Libra will want to
maintain moderation and balance in their presentation
and activities, which allows them to stay
realistic.
Venus - Libra is ruled by Venus,
which shows a sensual and courteous path through
life.
The Male expression of Venus as a
Moveable Air Sign comes to life through the Sign of
Libra. The active quality of Venus as the planet of
happiness is being learned in through the sign of
Libra. The Libran scales vacillate between the desired
object and the outlay of energy or time it will take
to realize the object. The rajasic, passionate nature
of this sign shows a desire filled personality as air
is the element of desire and it rules the intellect.
Balancing their own desires with the desires and
wishes of those affected by their decisions is the
main cycle of action with Libra. This does not always
mean the Libran will seek the steady and the stable.
In fact many times they will seek the chaotic, in
order to balance it later and learn the desired lesson
and how to act instinctively. But the intellect will
not be able to make a proper decision in the new
experiences the Libran will gravitate toward. Thus
they must learn to trust their gut and make a
decision, then live with it. Yet, Venus as the ruling
planet will deny any ultimate enjoyment from
experiences or sensual objects if all concerned were
not honored in the process of its fulfillment. As the
Libran learns to value themselves and others equally,
a greater respect and value for all is integrated and
the active quality of Venus is realized.
The Libra native experiences confusion
around taking positive action as the Moon is Lord of
the 10th house, the "Karma Bhava", the houses of
action. Librans will vacillate mentally trying to feel
their way through yet after much struggle will still
feel ill equipped to act or wind up doubting their
actions later. They will compensate for this behavior
by relying too heavily on the opinions of others and
the general consensus of their peers, as shown by the
Sun as 11th lord.
