The constellation
Between Virgo
and Scorpio,
is the inspiration
for the modern
depiction
of Lady Justice.
The righteous
sign,
(also mine),
Libra,
is said
to have
an astrological
formula,
but
by my
calculation,
the classification
is less
standardization
and more
realization
that our parents
had a celebration-
New Year’s Eve-
or Winter’s hibernation
whose
manifestation
was the creation
of a little
Libra.
The only sign
of the zodiac
represented
by an inanimate
object,
the scales.
Balance,
said to be
among
our talents,
we Libras
emphasize
cooperation,
fairness,
and partnership,
harmony
and a love
of beauty
and art.
Without
a chart
I know
I show
such disposition,
but also
the celestial
position
right
next to
Lupus.
Coincidence
for me,
of course,
but the significance
of the beast
adjacent
should remind
us not
to be
at all
complacent.
So
for what
it’s worth,
October
birth
instructs us
to stand
for justice
for all
with a
robustness
at scale.
