A separate nineteenth century source gives this degree its own picture. Charubel's 1898 sequence, unconnected to the later Sabian material, records a woman standing on the head of a serpent. Counting from Libra's start, this is the twenty ninth degree, placing it in the sign's third decan. Its decan is ruled by Jupiter rather than Venus, which colors the degree with something Libra does not supply on its own.
The narrower term division belongs to Mars, a still finer layer of rulership laid across the sign and decan. Every degree in this set, including this one, comes from a single 1925 sitting: Marc Edmund Jones and the clairvoyant Elsie Wheeler, in Balboa Park, San Diego, drawing 360 blank cards in random order. Jones's book appeared in 1953, but it is Dane Rudhyar's 1973 reinterpretation, An Astrological Mandala, that is generally quoted today, and its copyrighted wording is withheld from this page. As a cardinal air sign, Libra initiates through relationship, weighing one position against another before committing. The point of tracking a degree this closely is not to predict an event but to place it exactly within Libra's span. Element and quality carry through every degree of Libra: it is a cardinal air sign, and this degree inherits that basic temperament even as the decan and term add their own note.
