Maybe it's just us, but we're lowkey in denial that summer's come to an end in what seems like a blink of an eye. And yet,
fall is here — and with it, a return to equilibrium in the form of
Libra season . After the whole six-planets-in-retrograde-thing, a semblance of balance is precisely what the doctor ordered — and we're ready to celebrate our
most reliable sign of the Zodiac with a gift guide expertly crafted in their honor.
"Libras enjoy the finer things in life and have a joie de vivre take on existence," astrology expert
Lisa Stardust tells Refinery29. While Libras are best known as masters of balance and symmetry (they are, after all, represented by brass scales), they're also known for their romantic side and appreciation of all things beautiful, too. "Always one to commit to affairs of the heart with eagerness, they are lovers of love," Stardust continues. "Also the person who adds glamour, sparkle, and laughter to life."
Celebrate the most compassionate air sign in your life with the 23 graceful suggestions ahead.
