Libra (September 23 - October 22) More than any other sign, Libra, you know how to charm the room. You'll bring the most scintillating bottle of wine, wear the classiest outfit and say all the right things to those who count. The problem is that others will hate you for it. Jealous of your seemingly perfect life or threatened by your superior skills, they will plot against you. Better to let down the façade a bit, even tell a slightly off-color joke, to show you're one of the gang!

Chocolates:

Chooses two boxes of chocolates, white and dark; one for you, one for them.

Food:

Libra gets two of everything in a meal, and it may take them a little while to decide which dish they prefer. These dishes, however, will most likely contain some of their favorite flavorings, like cloves, ginger, mint and vanilla.

Movies:

The Scales are happy with a little of all worlds, or are entirely willing to watch whatever is on, just so long as they don't need to go to the video store and make an actual decision. Check out When Harry Met Sally or Sleepless in Seattle for the romantic displays of two people working everything out in the end.

Music:

The Scales can't decide which type of music is their favorite, they only want to make sure that whatever they're playing doesn't offend anyone. When the kids are around they'll listen to Britney Spears and the Backstreet Boys, and they'll flip the radio to oldies when friends or relatives are in the car. For themselves, top 40 seems just right.

Restaurants:

The well-mannered Libra takes their refinement and charm to an equally sophisticated eating establishment. Five-star dining in the best restaurant around is right in style with your tastes.

Sports:

The partnership-pursuing Scales will seek out mental sports played in pairs or activities that put their balance to the test; for example, gymnastics, figure skating, handball or skateboarding.

Travel:

China, Fiji, France, Lesotho, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Uganda

Television:

What better entertainment for a Libra than watching Law and Order? You probably enjoy shows that are popular enough to talk about tomorrow, but that appeal to your sense of fairness and balance. Old romantic-at-heart favorites might include Cheers and Mad About You.
