Libra
Pictures by Charles F. Blunt
The constellation Libra appears as a pair of golden scales among the stars of a deep navy sky, from Charles F. Blunt's The Beauty of the Heavens of 1842. Libra is the only sign of the zodiac that is not a living creature, and the sun once stood in it at the autumn equinox, when day and night are in balance. For a Libra born between September 23 and October 22.
