The Sabian Symbols
The Sabian Symbols are a set of 360 mystical messages (that make up an image also), that are associated with each of the 360 degrees of the zodiac. They have also often been referred to as an Astrological oracle. They were channeled by a clairvoyant in 1925 from the mystical Sabian brotherhood source.
The Sun’s Sabian Symbol for Libra today gives the following vision/message/meaning for the overall collective:
A child with a butterfly net chases a white butterfly, which is suddenly transfixed by a beam of light.
Chasing after a beautiful dream; searching for the ideal within the manifest (disappointed in love; want more than is offered); flitting from one romance to another, vs. creating stability in a relationship by adapting to one's partner's true nature; holding to crystallized memories of perfect moments vs. remaining open to life's changeable, unpredictable events; picking one's way carefully through the obstacles on one's path vs. thrashing about in an effort to free oneself from one's physical or psychological handicaps; seeking spiritual illumination; being open to spiritual teachings found in dreams, visions, or curious events, vs. entertaining illusory beliefs based on what one wants to be true; exploring one's fantasies vs. living in a dreamworld.
