Meaning
Libra is cardinal air. Cardinal signs open each season and begin things. Its traditional ruler is Venus, which acts most freely here; the planet that rules the opposite sign, Aries, is in detriment. Medieval medicine assigned it the kidneys and lower back, the basis of the zodiac-man diagrams in old almanacs.
Practice
Workings that suit Libra are timed with the Moon or Sun in the sign and opened in the hour of Venus. Contemplate Justice as its gate in the tarot.
