~ Modality ~
Libra is a cardinal sign, which makes it a precursor of the zodiac sky. This means that it is the bringer of the new season, being spring for us down here in the southern hemisphere. Cardinal-born people are often seen as visionaries. 

~ Symbol ~
The Scales.
The constellation for Libra was once thought to be the claw of Scorpius by the Greeks, but the Babylonians saw the Scales in the stars and associated them with Librans. The Scales are heavily symbolic to many cultures and are representative of balance, equality, harmony and divine justice.

~ Element ~
Libra is ruled by the element of air. Air is associated with the mind in relation to intuition, intellect and communication, and Life Force in relation to the breath, the body and movement. 

~ Ruling Planet ~
Venus.
Like Taurus, Libra's ruling planet is Venus. Venus is associated with love, beauty, harmony, relationships, and creativity.
