Tarot: Justice Temperance

A sextile of fire and air, the Sun among friends

Count from Sagittarius to Libra and you reach the eleventh house, the Good Spirit: friends, groups, allies and the hopes a person shares with them. The Sun is in Libra, its fall, and you were born in late morning, with the Sun high in the east of the meridian, approaching the top of its arc. The Sun sextiles the Ascendant, the supportive link between fire and air, which feed each other.

Sagittarius rising is mutable fire, frank and exploratory, and Libra is cardinal air, social and balancing. The sextile means these cooperate with little effort. Jupiter, which rules the Ascendant, is a participating triplicity ruler of air and holds the terms from 14° to 21° of Libra, so it has a share in the Sun's sign.

Open, funny and hard to dislike

Sagittarius rising makes a bright entrance: a big stride, an open face, an opinion offered with a smile. You are likely to talk to strangers, ask about their travel plans and laugh easily. The Libra Sun gives that frankness manners. You say what you think and then check how it landed, and you tend to be forgiven quickly.

Jupiter is the ruler, so the mood is generous and expansive, and the Libra Sun matches it with a feeling for how everyone is doing. What others may not see is how much you weigh before you commit. The first reaction is a yes; the real answer arrives a day later.

Friendship first, then the rest

With the Sun in the eleventh house, love often grows from friendship, shared causes or a group of people you meet again and again. You want a partner who is also a friend and who shares your sense of fairness and fun. Sagittarius rising wants freedom and honesty, and the Libra Sun wants closeness and courtesy.

The tension is between keeping your options open and keeping your commitments. You may be warm to many people and find it hard to say which one matters most. Compatibility tends to work with partners who have their own interests, enjoy travel and talk, and who can tell you clearly what they want without resenting your wide circle.

Networks, teaching and causes larger than one desk

The eleventh-house Sun draws purpose toward groups and shared aims: community and campaigning work, education, publishing, travel and cultural exchange, law, international organisations and networks of all kinds. As tendencies, Sagittarius adds a feeling for meaning and distance, and Libra adds diplomacy.

You are good at bringing people together and giving a group a direction. The risk is overcommitting in the first flush of enthusiasm, and leaving details to others. Jupiter as chart ruler suggests that its sign and house in your own chart show where your optimism is best directed, and where it needs a plan.

Keeping the promises the enthusiasm makes

The task is to match the generosity of the first yes with the follow-through of the last. Say no sooner, and say it kindly. Pick a few friendships and tend them. When the frank thing comes to mind, say it with the care of the Libra Sun and leave out the exaggeration.

In the Tarot, Temperance belongs to Sagittarius and Justice to Libra: a pouring between two cups, and a weighing between two pans. Both are about proportion. A chart that learns the proportion between enthusiasm and delivery is a trusted one.

Questions to reflect on

What do you say less than you think, and what do you say more than you mean?
