Born at this point in Libra season
Born in the early part of Libra, this person arrives at the autumn balance point still learning where the scale should rest. Asked where to eat, they offer three options and no preference, keeping the peace at the cost of their own voice. Later comes a small sting of resentment at having been so agreeable. The early degrees ask for a gentler start: state one preference out loud, then see how the room answers.
