The Libran Balance Point And Grand Yen of the Zodiac
by david on Oct.27, 2009, under Astrology
The Autumnal Equinox begins the process of meeting the outer world for the developing ego and in the plant kingdom a point is reached where life begins to withdraw into the seed. The juxtaposition is significant for the surface life, mammals, reptiles, insects etc.. Some will begin to retreat some will develop adaptations to the coming cold and remain active. The world balances all on the weakening of the suns’ rays. This begins the receptive principle of Yin. Mars/Aries represents the Grand Yang principle whereas Venus/Libra represents the opposite. Reaction,response,balance,harmony,in-breath,are all Libran concepts. The function of the kidneys ( which the Chinese refer to as the Masters of Life ) and the inner ear as well as the balance point in the human body ( three fingers below the navel ) are indicated. We stand erect and therefore the sense of balance has permeated, even our psychology. The balance of mind, body and spirit represents the Ultimate form of balance within the human organism and takes Libra into three levels which are not represented overtly in the symbolism of the sign. The symbol of Libra is the scale and it’s static position communicates harmony. So balance and harmony go hand in hand. It has been rightly said that Librans are shit disturbers as well. I have personally seen Librans ( male as well as female) enter a room that is quiescent and purposely stir people up as well as entering a chaotic group and calm things down. This is a human response to imbalance which motivates even the most reticent Libran. In essence, matter is constantly seeking balance with spirit as change is one of the only constants of the Universal. Matter is constantly seeking the return to energy while energy is constantly changing into spirit and spirit is constantly reforming into matter, etc. In this universal process of becoming beauty is being released and attracting which is the underlying Venusian principle as ruler of Libra. In Natal interpretation, Venus represents centripetal force inherent in the birth pattern while Mars can be said to represent the centrifical force. Simply put, we draw to us those experiences, people, resources, and ideas we need in order to fulfill our birth pattern through Venus. Libra shows us where balance and harmony are achieved, usually in relationship of all kinds as we are dealing with social relationships in the 7th house which is the Natural house of Libra and Venus.
