Libra 24: “The third wing on the left side of the butterfly” * A time of transformation following the guidance of your soul
Sun Sabian symbol around October 17th. Sometimes we act driven by a sense of discomfort or impulse that cannot be explained by reason. You may not fully understand it yourself, and it’s difficult to explain to those around you, and it’s hard to get them to understand…but for some reason, you feel a strong desire to “choose this” or “go down this path”…this may be a sign that your soul is approaching a time of transformation.
People whose Sun Sabian symbol is likely to be at 24 degrees Libra:
Matsuzaka Tohri (actor and model)
Rita Haywards (the original Hollywood actress who led the American cinema of the 1940s)
Montgomery Clift (actor; “A Place in the Sun,” “From Here to Eternity,” “The Misfits”)
Butterflies symbolize the aura
It is believed that people have an invisible body outside of their physical bodies that reflects their emotions, mind, and psychology.
This body is called the aura.
It is said to appear bell-shaped, and at first glance, it resembles the shape of a butterfly with its wings spread.
For this reason, butterflies have long been considered a symbol of the aura.
And it is said that the aura changes depending on the state of one’s mind, emotions, and spirit.
The right side of the body represents masculinity and reason, while the left side represents femininity and intuition. This symbol, with its emphasis on the right side of the body, seems to be conveying the importance of following the unconscious impulses and realizations that come unconsciously from within, without being too caught up in the whispers of reason, such as “consciousness” and “preconceived notions.”
And perhaps these “inspirations” are the result of “spiritual inspiration” from the invisible world.
By acting faithfully in response to the whispers of your “soul’s essence,” which cannot be addressed with words or intellect, you can accept the changes in your destiny that come from within.

A place where “otherness” shines.
From such a place,
This symbol is said to represent “transformation” that comes from accepting “inner impulses.”
A slightly different perspective
Your inability to fit in with those around you
This is not a “flaw,”
but a “door” to accepting new sensibilities.
The “third wing” can also be seen as a mutation that goes beyond the common sense of butterfly symmetry.
It signifies the temporary loss of the “balance” that Libra has traditionally symbolized,
but the endowment of your soul with “new power.”
A choice that cannot be explained rationally.
An action that seems socially incorrect…
But for some reason, you are strongly drawn to it…
When such an impulse crosses your mind,
it is your “soul” telling you that it wants to choose that path.
Perhaps “change” always comes with this “discomfort.”
Follow your “inner voice.”
For example, let’s say you’ve been invited to meet at a restaurant.
But… On the day itself, for no apparent reason, you just couldn’t bring yourself to go…
So you had no choice but to cancel, saying you had an urgent matter to attend to (>_<)
Though embarrassed by your own actions, you decided to stop by a completely unrelated cafe instead.
There, you unexpectedly strike up a conversation with the person sitting next to you.
And from that conversation, your life takes a major turn…
That could happen…
That’s what this symbol symbolizes.
It’s by following your intuition, which transcends reason and common sense, that you will experience a moment guided by your soul’s guidance.
Three Recommended Actions
So, if you have this symbol in your natal chart,
and during this season of emphasis,
please be aware of and try incorporating the following actions.
1. Make time to listen to your intuition
The moment you wake up in the morning
Try to quietly sense what your heart desires
Try taking a short moment to do so
Focus on experiencing it, not thinking about it
2. Welcome the “discomfort” in your daily life
If you feel something “discomfort” in your usual routine,
it may be a sign from your soul that it’s time for a transformation
Have the courage to choose a different path
3. Act on your inner voice rather than logic.
Even if you can’t explain it to others,
Trust in the feeling that only you understand and take a step forward.
Things to keep in mind
1:
Don’t be more afraid of change than necessary.
Try to see the inner turmoil as a gateway to new possibilities.
2:
If you put too much emphasis on being understood and approved by others,
you will lose the ability to hear your own “voice of the soul.”
3:
Have a unique personality or make judgments that are different from those around you. Instead of blaming yourself for this, believe that this “otherness” is your light.

Why not muster up a little courage and respond to the “guidance of your soul” that cannot be measured by reason?
Beyond that choice, an opportunity to discover a “new you” awaits.
