HOROSCOPE
The Libra’s planetary ruler is Venus and because you were born in the first Decan, or part, of the sign, you are lucky enough to receive twice the planetary power of Venus. Being the planet of harmony, sensitivity and cooperation, it is no wonder these qualities are so strong in your personality. It is Venus that allows you to so easily appreciate the beauty and aesthetics of your surroundings. It is also Venus that creates your strong connection with love, which explains why you are most comfortable in loving, balanced relationships. You use your imagination to make the most out of relationships and it seems you always come up with a new way to show your partner affection. Although your need for harmony is great, find ways to express your disharmonious thoughts with your partners, as it will actually strengthen the relationship.
