Cultural and Mythological Significance of Libra

Greek & Roman Mythology:
Libra is associated with Astraea, the goddess of justice, who carried the scales of balance. She was the last of the immortals to live among humans before retreating to the heavens—her scales became the constellation Libra. This links Libra to truth, fairness, and the divine order.

Babylonian Origins:
In Babylonian astronomy, Libra was known as the Scales of Shamash, the god of truth and justice. It symbolized law, contracts, and social order, emphasizing Libra's role as a keeper of balance.

Vedic Astrology (Jyotish):
Libra is called Tula, meaning “the balance.” Ruled by Shukra (Venus), Tula signifies harmony in relationships, refined aesthetics, and a sense of fairness. It governs partnerships and the arts in Vedic tradition.

Egyptian and Other Ancient Views:
In Egyptian mythology, scales were used in the weighing of the heart ceremony, where the soul’s truth was judged. This powerful symbolism aligns Libra with moral balance and spiritual integrity across ancient cultures.
