Do you guys feel that Libra deserves a better ruler?!
Question: I always feel that if they make Pallas the ruling planet for Libra I will except it and its myth with the goddess Athena.

Minerva is also libra partly.
But Pallas is not the major planet, and to let Libra be ruled by an asteroid makes it trivial. Do you want to demote it?
Venus, to me is definitely ruling libra. All those Greek goddesses have a romantic spiritual quality to it.
However, true that libra embodies not only the venusian concept of beauty. I feel Minerva (Pallas Athena) could be the co-ruler
no, I am a libra--and I think that venus is perfect. :)
interesting......I like it. Yeah Venus and the idea of Justice dont really go well together. I have a book of the Celtic Zodiac which is based on the moon, and there are 13 signs......interestingly, she makes Earth itself a ruler-it rules Leo sign in that book-and it totally makes sense to have an Earth Goddess as a ruler-like a mother goddess.. Well-you know the systme of astrology does reflect the prejudices of its makers (men ) ...I mean, hello, where is Hera/Juno and Persephone and Demeter/Ceres...........instead all we got is Venus and the Moon (kind of).
As a Libra, no. Why should we change Venus. As a matter of fact, Libra can even use a 2nd ruler . Lets invent one. Libra is the only inanimate sign of the entire zodiac. So, we should deserve an inanimate ruler plus Venus of course.
Whats wrong with the one you have? Can't Libras ever be grateful...?
why do they need another or change their ruling planet? what makes librans special that they would need a new planet? venus is the only right one. being the scales, librans jugde but they must also know to judge is different from TELLING what's right and wrong.
Well, I think that Libra having both Venus & Pallas as
rulers would be really great.
When the outer planets were not yet discovered there were attempts by modern astrologers to assign a planet or an asteroid to this sign but they cannot go against highly respected traditions that age back to ancient Egypt and Sumeria.
The ruling goddess is Venus but the original is Innana or Ishtar (which Venus is derived from), Innana is a most beautiful goddess when in favorable aspect specially to her brother Nanna (ruler of moon) but when she is not in favorable aspect, she is described as a warrior in battle gear holding a sword. Venus (Innana) is the ruler of Taurus and Libra. The militant Venus is the part that rules Libra while the earthly goddess of home part rules Taurus.
