The scales
Libra is the only sign of the zodiac that is not a living being: it is a pair of scales. For centuries the Greeks saw in these stars the claws of the Scorpion. The Romans turned them into scales and linked them with justice. Some versions say these are the scales of Astraea, the same goddess associated with Virgo, with which she weighed human actions. That is why the two constellations sit side by side in the sky.
Its ruler is Venus. Tradition links the sign with the search for balance and a taste for harmony.
Myths come in several versions. This is one of the most widespread.
