We are just going into Libra as financial matters are at the forefront and all of us are weighing diminishing options to maintain a semblance of freedom and security. The thing being weighed is balanced to a standard which is our moral and civil codes externally and spiritual / psychological thinking internally. So its a good thing if you can deliberate on matters as opposed to being oblivious or ceding your thinking to others.

“They named Libra from the equal balance of this month because on September 24 the sun makes the equinox while running through this sign. Whence Lucan also says (Civil War 4.58): To the scales of just Libra” [The Etymologies of Isidore of Seville, 7th century AD, p.106.]
The word Libra, from Latin libra, plural librae, Greek lithra, a weighing scale, is related to the words: level, lira, deliberate, equilibrium (from æquus, equal + libra), litra (name of a Greek weight and coin), litre (liter, a metric unit of volume)”, librate (land worth a pound a year, the word used to mean; to vibrate as a balance; to be in equipoise; to waver between one thing and another). The process of librating or swinging from side to side is spoken of as libration.
“From time immemorial the scales have been the principle attribute of justice, it being impossible to even a little right with any quantity of wrong” [Brewers Book of Myth and Legend, p.253].
