Houses
The 12 Houses of astrology are symbolic of the all the departments that make up human life. The planets and zodiac signs will manifest themselves most strongly in the sphere of life represented by the House in which they fall on your chart. Houses are not "energies" like the elements or planets, nor do they color the expression of energies like the zodiac signs do. The houses are WHERE these energies are most likely to manifest. The houses are the fields of experience, not the experience themselves.

Libra is the seventh sign of the Zodiac, and is an air sign with Venus as their astrological planet ruler. Those with an Ascendant in Libra have a need to keep all aspects of their lives in balance. They thrive when their work life is organized and not too little nor too much time is spent working. Just as their employment is balanced, their home life needs to be balanced and structured as well. They are just and fair, never choosing one child over the other or spending more money on one family member and less on another. Also, Libra Ascendant people spend a lot of time obsessing about their family members and carry a deep, deep emotional attachment to each one. These people are the best secret keepers and like to keep their private lives extremely private.
Those who were born at a time when the Libra was rising in the eastern sky generally love to travel. You can find a person with Libra rising in a career of service. Often they will enter the fields of law enforcement, the legal community, the hospitality industry, or possibly the medical field.
