We'll be taking the signs two at a time through the end of the year to make sure we cover them all, so October will cover both Libra (the Scales) and Scorpio (the Scorpion - my sign!). Libra is thought to be associated with the goddess of justice and begins its reign on the Autumnal Equinox, when day is equal to night. Scorpio is associated with the myth of Orion, whom the Scorpion was sent to sting and now chases across the night sky.

1. Libra is associated with the color green - read a book with something green on the cover.
2. Read a book with a police officer, investigator (paranormal or otherwise), sheriff, lawyer, judge, or jury (or something similar).
3. One of the myths of Orion holds that he was a mighty hunter who had a pack of beloved hunting dogs. After his death, Artemis (the goddess of the hunt) placed him in the sky, along with his hunting dog, who became Sirius, the brightest star in the sky. Read a book with a canine on the cover or with a canine character (shifter or otherwise).
4. One of the easiest ways to locate Orion is to find Orion's Belt, a line of three stars from which a sword hangs. Read a book with a sword on the cover or which has a character who uses a sword.
5. Full Moon Read - any book with a shifter/Were.

Only the Full Moon Read needs to have a shifter/Were somewhere in it - the other categories can be satisfied with non-shifter books (though the more, the merrier, as far as shifters go around here!). Just do as much as you can, and have fun!
