Libra - Card Based on C15th Italian Manuscripts - New

The most beautiful of all the sciences, astrology is also one of the oldest. Derived originally from ancient Mesopotamia, the first records have been found on clay tablets dating back to 3000BC. During the Middle Ages, astrology flourished in Italy whilst their artists glorified the subject with colourful frescoes and exquisitely illustrated manuscripts.

Libra (24th Sep - 23rd Oct)

Libra is the seventh sign of the zodiac and is a cardinal air sign. Ruled by Venus, the Goddess of love, beauty and luxury, she is the patroness of all earthly pleasures. In ancient Babylon, under the name of Ishtar, she was the most powerful heavenly body after the Sun and the Moon. People born under this sign are lovers of peace and tranquility and enjoy beautiful surroundings. The scales are symbolic of their need for justice, balance and harmony.

These cards are based on original 15th century Italian manuscripts, the MindGames collection of star sign Greeting Cards are beautiful works of art.
