Mystic Constellations
Evalutor of the souls- Libra
She is known as the Soul Evalutor in Eastern tales. Libra appears as a sign of neither savior nor sacrilege. When a human ceases to exist, their soul wanders aimlessly in limbo. Those lost souls’ destination to either Hell or The Otherworld is determined by not Libra but her scale of truth. If the scale leans to the right, the yellow lantern lights up, the lost soul is good and will be sent to The Otherworld, where the warm light from Libra’s yellow lantern will guide their way. If the scale is tilted to the left, the blue lantern is lit up, which indicates the deformity in the soul. The next journey of the said soul will only lead to Hell, Libra’s blue lantern only makes it ever more eerie and twisted.
Human soul is always influenced by the 4 spirits: Pleasure, Rage , Lust, and Hatred. Those spirits are of the same level in power and playfulness. They always want to show off their power over the others, and the numbers of spirits keep increasing exponentially. That is why living souls are the spirits target as they easily get manipulated and miss-leaded.
Libra, fully aware of the chaos and pell-mell, comes to the human world every year at Full Moon Festival as a mystic vendor. She gives people, especially children, her mystical enchanted lanterns to protect them from evil spirits. The more innocent people are, the more protection they need. Those lanterns shine warm light, bring people joy and are always there as a reminder: for every being, there’s goodness residing within.
People from the East also made their own lanterns from time to time. Although they won’t have the enchanted magic like the ones given by Libra, it became a part of Eatern land people spiritual traditions.
