Libra - Medical Astrology Sun Sign LIBRA (September 24 - October 23):

Born with beauty and brains, Libra has it all. Whether you're man or woman, there's a wonderful internal beauty that just glows through you and everyone sees it. Beauty may only be skin deep, but you've got it inside and out! You have the nicest complexion in the Zodiac! Others may spend huge amounts to try and get what you have naturally. You're such an easy going person who loves peace and harmony rather than dissension, fighting and confrontation. Your diplomacy is at an art form level. Would that everyone be as diplomatic, charming and graceful as you are! However, all this has a price to pay, healthwise, for Libra in general. Despite your easy going nature, you can be hurt, get angry and all those other nasty emotions us humans have. You would rather STUFF those things however, than DISPLAY them to the world! What happens is that you suppress these things and they are buried--or, at least, seem to be buried. Out of sight, out of mind? Right? Wrong. The weak link in your body as a Libra is your kidneys. But, let me cover some of these items here. Your kidneys are one of the major ELIMINATIVE organs in your body. Your liver is the number one eliminator, the kidneys are number two and your skin is number three. The kidney's function is to clean all fluids that come through them (sort of like a cleaning station) in the form of red blood cells, and resorb the poisons and toxins that they carry. Red blood cells only have so much room on their tiny, circular surface, so it's important that as they circulation through the bloodstream attracting "dirt" (poisons and toxins), that somebody in your body be responsible for cleaning it off! Once a red blood cells are cleansed of its dirt products, it can then whisk up to the lungs, catch a bunch of fresh oxygen and bring it back and "feed" it to the organs and other systems of your body. Our diet is terrible and because of it, the miles and miles of paper thin, very tiny tubules that are packed within each kidney to clean off red blood cells, can get coated with things such as mucus, which is created by dairy products (milk, ice cream and cheese are the WORST). If a tubule is coated with "gunk" then it can't vacuum off each of the red blood cells that pass through it. So, the red blood cells goes back into the blood stream carrying poisons and toxins! Yuk! Which means those red blood cells can't (a) carry as much oxygen around to other parts of your body which badly needs them or (b) it begins to "dirty" up your blood and gives you specific symptoms. What are these symptoms? 1. Skin problems: dry patches of skin here and there, red/itchy skin, acne-like eruptions, or later, it will be misdiagnosed as eczema or psoriasis. (If the kidneys can't clean off the red blood cells, the body tries to get rid of the poisons and toxins by pushing them out via the skin--so you get these "disturbances".) 2. Headaches that come and go for seemingly, no reason at all.(This is because the red blood cells are carrying too many toxins and poisons around on them). 3. General fatigue or tiredness. (Red blood cells that aren't carrying enough oxygen into the body makes you feel mentally dull brain-wise and sluggish physically). By cleaning up your diet: no milk (unless you're age 12 or under), ice cream or cheese once every 7 days, lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, and some whole grains (fiber in cereal for breakfast is good!), the kidneys will become cleaner and begin to work up to their full potential. And then, these symptoms will gradually go away over time.
