Libra. The scales.
Same as their symbol the scale, in Libra’s life, the tiniest increase in weight on one side will affect equally, if not, even more, the other side.
Tracking symbolism for Libra back in Greek mythology, we find a love story between the male god Eros and the beautiful mortal girl Psych (or Soul). Eros, who tormented so many people, fell in love with Psych and their story is full of intrigues, separations, and struggles. They were, finally, reunited when Zeus graced Psych the gift of immortality.
The scale sign for Libra does not only symbolizes justice.
It is also a symbol of those two creatures that constantly seek each other until they meet and can finally be in harmony. Balance, harmony, and polarity are connected with the Libra sun-sign. Idealism, hospitality, diplomacy, objectivity, self-motivation are also their characteristics.

Scorpio. Scorpion.
Same as their animal symbol, Scorpios are often intimidating and misunderstood. If you give enough time and thought to understand why they do what they do and why they act as they act, you may find a new appreciation for them. Scorpio is connected with Phoenix, the mythical bird that is cyclically reborn.
It is associated with the sun, since, in most versions of the legend, Phoenix dies by fire and then is reborn again and again.
Because Scorpio’s governing planet is Pluto, they can go out on a limb, in mind, spirit, body. They like situations that can be hateful for other signs, and find comfort in that which is isolated or foreign. They are focused, balanced, ambitious, intuitive and, as it comes easy to them, they can also be manipulative.

Capricorn. Goat.
Goats are one of the very first animals to be domesticated by humans. So, there is a huge wealth of symbolic material concerning goat meaning.
Capricorn’s goat head and fish tail symbols are due to the myth of Gigantomachy, that is “The Battle of the Giants”. It was the most important divine struggle in Greek mythology, the battle fought between the Giants and the Olympian gods for supremacy of the cosmos. In that battle, god Pan tried to escape from Giant Typhon’s attack by transforming into a fish but he didn’t make it on time and the transformation was not completed. He won though, so Zeus turned him into a constellation out of gratitude.
Symbolic goat meanings are those of peace, balance, curiosity, provision, faith, respect, vitality, nurturing, exploration, intelligence, and independence.
