Tipping the Scales

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.
