Shrine of Libra

The Shrine of Libra is located on the western wall of the Chapel of the Well near the Shrine of Sagittarius. The Libra Shrine is situated near the entry to the chapel, which opens onto the temple colonnade near the Shrine of Virgo. The Chapel is dedicated to the element of water. Olivia writes that the zodiac shrines are corresponded to rites found in the FOI liturgy book "Sophia, Cosmic Consciousness of the Goddess." The ritual "Mystical Awakening of Libra and Kwan Yin" from "Sophia" is associated with this shrine.
