The traditional symbol for this degree, one of the 360 Sabian symbols first recorded in 1925: “A set of paths curve back on themselves rather than running in a straight line.”
THE SYMBOL
“A set of paths curve back on themselves rather than running in a straight line.”
Libra 15° · Sabian symbols, devised 1925 (Marc Edmund Jones, clairvoyant Elsie Wheeler)
Remember to round up: a planet or point at 9°30′ takes the 10° symbol, not the 9° one.
What this degree describes
Paths that loop rather than run straight, the exact midpoint of Libra's own thirty degrees, and a shape the sign recognizes instantly: not a dead end, not a shortcut, a curve that keeps returning you to somewhere already visited, a little changed each time. This degree names the whole method of balance itself, not a single decisive line but a continuous, adjusting circling that never quite stops correcting course.
When a planet or point falls here
A planet at this degree often shows a life or a mind that circles a subject repeatedly rather than settling it once, gaining real understanding through return rather than through a single pass. Neptune or Venus here can favor thinking or feeling that works best in loops, revisiting in order to refine. On an angle, it can describe someone whose growth looks cyclical rather than linear, and is no less real for it.
What are you circling back to again, and what does this pass teach you that the last one didn't?
