I had forgotten about Spanish pronunciation (more like "Lee-br-eh" than "Lee-br-ay" if memory serves correctly, but was about 35 years since doing a couple of years of Spanish in school so I won't be nearly as over-confident).
I was thinking of French and meant "the "a" is a schwa (ə)" when erroneously calling it a "short a", I never know the correct names for the different vowel sounds.
I'm really not sure how you arrived at "a pronunciation that I've never heard a single person use". I may have used wildly incorrect terminology, but given the star sign example I'm curious how you pronounce Libra that is so wildly different from "Lee-bruh" (being a reasonable approximation of French "libre")?
