Libra: Characteristics

Dreaming Big: Taking Action.

The task for each of us is to develop the Libra characteristics of a diplomatic, compassionate and attentive response. When equilibrium takes place it teaches us to react differently, and we move away from imbalance, imbued with a deeper concept of Justice. Without a bigger response all relationships falter.

Spiritually, relationships or marriages are the outward reflection of an inner marriage, a response between natural (outer good) with the spiritual (inner truth) of a person, and any problems in relationships can be seen as an issue with this inner relationship. If we are married this inner relationship is somewhat balanced, but if we are having difficulties in our marriage, this inner relationship examined now is how balance is restored.

The real responsibility toward a partner is our bigger response. A greater sense-of-self involvement will give us more to share, thereby improving our response to relationships.

Outer good has three degrees, civil, moral and spiritual, and when they  are united, truth is perceived. The three degrees of good in balance, improve relationships. Civil good, is being a part of a community. Moral good is being a part of something that is greater than ourselves. Spiritual good is knowing the previous two must be balanced to restore a more appropriate life expression.

Living and loving are what life is all about. Outward success is hollow if there is no one to share it with, and being involved in something greater than ourselves is pointless unless we resonate with what we are doing. We must find balance.
