Sun Enters Libra

Sun transits into Libra on Sunday, October 16th and will continue there until November 15, 2016. The Sun signifies your physical health, vitality, self-esteem, father, and even your soul.

Sun doesn’t feel comfortable in Libra. It is his debilitation or lowest power position. It’s like he falls down to earth during this month. The good thing is that this is an opportunity to get to know Sun more and build a better relationship with him.

Libra is an air sign ruled by Venus. Venus is a luxury-loving planet of love, beauty, the Goddess, and the arts. And wealth. Libra can bring blessings of being popular, peace-loving, and having harmonious relationships with others.

Libra is called Tula in Sanskrit. Libra is a sign of harmony and balance. Libra’s symbol is a man in a bazaar, or open-air market, with a scale in his hand. The symbol shows how Libra energies support business, negotiation, and finding balance. This can mean finding win-win solutions that benefit everyone, being successful in business – putting together a good deal, and being diplomatic.

As the natural 7th house of the zodiac, Libra is all about creating and maintaining relationships. This involves compromise and balancing the needs of each person involved. Learning to stay balanced is a big theme. Libra is the halfway point through the zodiac. Libra can also lead you to develop a strong relationship with the Divine through love and devotion.

But don’t try to please everyone, or compromise your core values too much. In negotiation, you have to know what the minimum deal that would be workable for you and be able to walk away from a deal that is unacceptable. Negotiation as the art of balancing issues between two people. Venus is the planet that will help you to know what things are really worth. The Sun, on the other hand, wants to burn away anything that is not the highest dharma; he doesn’t want to compromise. This is why Sun is not so comfortable in Libra.

Favorable Activities this Month

  • Do some simple remedies to Sun and you will greatly strengthen your relationship with him. Do a virtual pooja on your smart phone or Astroved. Chant Om Suryaya Namaha on Sunday and/or any day during Sun horas. Sunrise and sunset. Or you could chant the Sun’s Gayathri Mantra.
  • Focus on creating and improving relationships with others.
  • Practice the art of negotiation and business. Think “win-win” solutions to problems.
  • Have a pumpkin or two around to absorb karma and negative energies. Throw it away afterward.
  • Go inside. In the Northern hemisphere nights are getting longer and there is less daylight. Nurture your inner sun so that your connection will be stronger than ever when the Sun regains his powerful position.

8th Waning Moon – Satuday, Oct 22, 2016 As the brightness of the Moon keeps waning, emotions gradually dwindle, and the dominance of the God of Time, Archetype Kala Bhairava, begins to grow in magnitude.
