Libra Keeping The Balance At All Times: Mars Conjunct Mercury in the 9th House

Astrology in Real Life…

libra I figured out why I’m having so much angst over traveling in ugly pants. Could it be Libra (beauty) in the 9th house (travel)? I think so!

I always travel in a dress. Always. I want to look nice, plus I’m far more comfortable in a skirt or a dress than I am in pants. I actually hate wearing pants, although I recognize they are necessary on the rare occasion

But I’ve actually ridden a motorcycle in a dress many times, so I am pretty sure I’m on to something here. Like exercising (Mars) prettily (Libra), leave it to me to zoom around (Mars Mercury) on a motorcycle in a dress (pretty Libra). This is so embarrassing but as it turns out a person is just the way they are no matter how hard they try otherwise

Now I wonder if I swear (more) when wearing a skirt and tend to talk sweetly when wearing pants? You know. Balance! I bet I do!

::hangs head in shame for being so predictable::

Do you have any planets in Libra? Give some examples of things you balance. No planets in Libra? Tell on your Libra friends!

Lupa

My best friend is Libra sun, Scorpio ascendant as well as Venus in Scorpio. She had a baby a few days ago and delivered at home with a midwife. I was one of the ones she wanted to have present and when I arrived she was well into labor. She was pissed and there was swearing and everything. She wasn’t angry at anyone and she didn’t take it out on any of us, but it was NOT graceful and quiet.

As soon as the baby was born though she started asking if everyone there was ok and did we need food and so sorry for all the noise.

And yes, of course I ran his chart before he was 15 minutes old. He’s fabulous and so is his chart.

Ah, Lupa! Things sound so great for you! I am happy for you!

As for me, I have Pluto in Libra, in the 9th house.

As for things I balance, I think that I am good at hearing both sides of an argument, though this has led me to catering to two people at once (not so smart, when it is their battle and not my own). I can get bogged down with ill-placed diplomacy.

I know I am extremely moral especially when it comes to theft, lying, infidelity or downright dishonesty. I just don’t want to do these things.

But perpetually I have been befriended by shady characters, especially criminals, and it is like I don’t care what they do, as long as it is not expected behaviour from me.

So some hardened criminal has a moral little weiner as a buddy…is this balance?

Sun and Jupiter, 9th house; Mercury, Uranus and Venus, 8th house. It’s hard for me to come up with examples of things I balance, because I do it to everything.

And I am so invested in looking pretty and being well thought of that I rarely tell anybody what I really think…except on the internet, where it doesn’t matter because I’m invisible anyway.

No planets in Libra (or an Air sign), intercepted 4th house which should be Libra.

I’m always searching for balance. I tend to go overboard in one direction or other and then have to find my way back to the middle. However, I’m also usually the mediator in most situations, helping others to find the middle ground. Go figure

My soon to be 7yr old daugher has her moon in Libra and her clothing consists of skirts and dresses ONLY – with an array of tights for our snowy winter months. She is what her teacher calls a “Girly” girl, I just smile because I know with her zero degree Sun in Aries and her unaspected Mars in Aries there’s going to be some surprises. I have honestly been rammed before by her- she got down on all fours and head butted me!!

It pains me to read of disrespect for the pants. The pants and I have been through a lot and I am both loyal and grateful to pants for all the support they have given me through the years. True, finding the right pants can be a difficult process but oh, so rewarding! For the pant, it maketh the ass look great! And the leg slender.

I have a Libra Mars and Pluto; mostly I see it in the way I speak, as I’ve been restrained and diplomatic with my expressions all my life. The one area in my life where I notice the balancing out is that I pair my very kind, diplomatic and supportive persona with my ‘I’m on a break, fuckers’ more sarcastic and caustic personality.

Also a Libra Mars, and I completely relate with what Nia had to say. I can be the most diplomatic person you ever met, or I can take those words and be completely twisted, and on a certain days, I can make you bleed with them.

I am swimming in Libra; five planets in all, including, Sun, Mer, Ven, Sat, and Neptune. It seems all I’m ever doing is balancing something or someone here or there. I’m happy to be a Libra though, because I see the beauty in everything.
