Everything was balanced under this righteous sign.[citation needed]
Manilius once said that Libra was the sign "in which the seasons are
balanced". Both the hours of the day and the hours of the night match
each other.[citation needed] Thus why the Romans put so much trust in
the "balanced sign". Going back to ancient Greek times, Libra the
constellation between Virgo and Scorpio used to be ruled over by the
constellation of Scorpio. They called the area the Latin word
"chelae", which translated to "the claws" which can help identify the
individual stars that make up the full constellation of Libra, since
it was so closely identified with the Scorpion constellation in the
sky.According to the tropical system of astrology, the Sun enters the
sign of Libra when it reaches the northern autumnal equinox and the
southern vernal equinox, which occurs around September 22. Libra (astrology) Top Movies & Young Movies
