Have you also looked at Pallas Athena? I think this asteroid also has connections with equality, weaving ideas together and fairness.

On the martial side, she fights for justice and equal treatment etc. So the "equality" general so to speak.

I haven't had much experience with Pallas Athena, but I find it similar to Artemis somehow, which also acts based on justice and the "heroine" concept; although she is also definitely rebellious and even feisty. I get more Aries or Mars from her.

Hey Aries23 ✌.

I just want to point something out, you have Mars in Libra so your Mars is ruled by Venus and Venus in Scorpio so your Venus is ruled by the personal planet Mars with Aries rising.

I would think you would personally identify with Eris similarly to someone with a Libra stellium aspecting Mars or a Sun in Libra with Mars in Scorpio.

My experience with Libra clients who don't fit into the above categories is that they stress a lot about hurting other people's feelings or upsetting others and struggle with assertiveness and excess guilt because of it.

Their charm is not two-faced as they want you to like them and want to bond with you. They want harmony and to get along with others, they don't like drama,have good social skills and don't like rudeness.

The difference is that with Sun in Libra with Mars in Scorpio or similar combos,you will be polite and avoid conflict till a certain point but then eventually explode; feeling that aggressiveness is the only way for you to get through and be taken seriously.

But they don't turn to aggression automatically and ideologically hate force and violence.

I would also point out Aries23 that there are a lot of threads filled with drama and conflict and I never see you in them nor have I never seen you be rude but you are always true to how you feel.

I try to avoid pushing against anything. I always feel its an uphill battle to do so.

Its just better to focus on the things that you do want and rendezvous with those than slaying the ones that you don't want

My Eris is @ 14 Deg of Aries widely conjunct my Asc @ Aries 20 Degrees.

Pallas is at 0 deg Aquarius widely conjunct the Mid-heaven by 8 Degrees

I haven't spent much time with asteroids except Chiron and Juno.But I will be doing some reading on them.

America is not a real capitalist nation btw since our big government its in bed with tons of corporations it keeps bailing out not allowing real capitalism to function and flourish like it's suppose to; check out crony capitalism for more info.

A trait of capitalism, late-capitalism, is increased military & remote war, increased surveillance and increased terrorism. As oil supplies dwindle. I read this 20 years ago before the mechanics of surveillance were even tangible and I've witnessed it bear out.

At their extreme, capitalism and communism become synonymous with each other. I was told to picture a clock. 12-4 is capitalism, 4-8 socialism and 8-12 communism. If the hands swing towards 12 it's the same thing.

I think that Pallas rules Libra. Pallas Athena (her Roman equivalent is Minerva) was the goddess of law, justice, wisdom, civilization, war strategy, skills.

Is very wise and classy of you to stay away from the drama. I admire that, not doing so is a great way to lose your life force in things that are not worth it and just ultimately power struggles bc nothing positive ever comes out of those things, I just end up feeling pain in such threads or feeling drained.

Focus on the things you want is the key, very wise of you.

I don't see this new political landscape as anti-cronyism. I see it as factions within the wealthy wrestling for control and that we are moving to an oligarchy.

I remember one Libra man on this very website stating how he felt that Apollo should rule Libra. He argued that Libra is a Masculine sign and he himself is a man, so he should have a male God ruling over his sign. It was painfully obvious he was uncomfortable with a female God ruling his sign. That's kind of funny in a ridiculous way... but it's also very sad that only 3 out of 12 signs are represented by female Gods and men are still "threatened." I wonder when grown Taurus and Cancer men will make similar threads. I haven't specifically searched for them, so who knows maybe they already exist.

There is always the urge to see both sides to bring a balance or harmony, but this process incurs discord, simply because the two opposing sides exist in the first place - Libra is not responsible for creating the two sides, but they will be highlighted, as when Libra detects them, they go on a mission to resolve them, to make it "fair".

this is making more sense to me (the association of libra with death or satan) with the 7th house standing for libra; because I always wondered why the 7th house also represents "open" enemies, and the most open enemy of mankind would be satan of course who swore to lure every human into hell.

now the interesting thing is that, the sun is supposedly exalted at 19 degrees of Aries, and thus in fall at 19 degrees of Aries, which is by surprise (or maybe not) the sun degree of the satanist Aleister Crowley.

I hope dear Libra people won't take offense by this, we're not talking about every Libra.

@Nine

what do you think about Eris being representative of Libra?
