Libra's Fulcrum: Balancing the Brain, Heart, and Gut

    When the heart and mind are in conflict over a decision, allow the gut to tip the scales as a deciding vote.
    There are three neural centers in the body. While the one in the brain is presumably in control, scientists know the other two in the heart and gut also play heavily in behavioral decisions. Some people can intensely feel these other two clusters, making it seem like there are really three "brains" in the body. So, if it ever feels like two are at odds with each other, the third can act as a "majority rules" deciding factor. The brain may deal more in logic than the others, but logic doesn't see everything. The gut is a bit more rational than the heart but falls far short of the brain. Nonetheless, when we have a natural instinct for the right decision, it holds a heavy voice. Likewise, in matters of passion and love the heart reign supreme, however it can be mediated by the gut and brain.
