How To Love A Libra, According To Your Zodiac Sign

Happy Libra season! The autumn equinox is infused with a calm yet invigorating energy that resonates all throughout the season. Collectively, we have the ability to appreciate the fruits of our Virgo-season labor once the sun ingresses into the sign of justice.

If you’re fortunate enough to love a Libra, you gain intimate access to some of this quiet peace all year round. While the Libra is often stereotyped as vain or superficial, there is a deeper and more profound longing within each one to maintain harmony and create long-lasting beauty in the world.

How do you show up for your Libra? How do you love them well? The key is to understanding your own sign and where it sits in relation to Libra.

Aries

Your soul purpose is to initiate, Aries, while Libra’s is to cooperate. As Libra is situated directly opposite your sign, they are known as your sister sign. They bring a certain joy to your life, acting as the diplomatic mediator during conflicts. In this sense, they can bring you back down to the earth and keep you from lashing out too quickly. They’re likely to find your angry outbursts off-putting at times, while you’re undoubtedly going to be annoyed that they won’t fight back. However, at the end of the day, you’re both fiercely loyal and oriented towards justice. You make a solid team.

Taurus

You’re both ruled by Venus, so you can expect this relationship to be a thing of beauty. But keep in mind, Taurus, that your sign stands at an awkward quincunx to Libra. In other words, you don’t necessarily relate to or understand each other. While you’re happy getting your hands dirty, they’d prefer to remain cool and rational. The airy, detached demeanor might occasionally strike you as offensive, as though your Libra is not interested in the details that you value so highly. The reality is that they simply don’t like to fight. Restrain your stubborn instinct to hold a grudge and allow your Libra the freedom to be themselves.

Gemini

Your intellectual curiosity is perfectly complemented by the artistic capabilities of your Libra, whose slower energy can help calm your racing thoughts and bring you into a more balanced place. Your signs form a harmonious trine to one another, making this one of the easiest relationships, though you might find yourself frustrated by your Libra’s approach to communication. While you talk a mile a minute, they weigh their words carefully and value every single thing that is said. This can lead to you feeling stifled, while they might feel overwhelmed. Remember to take a breath every once in a while.

Cancer

As the most nurturing and motherly sign of the zodiac, Cancer, you will be drawn to your sweet and sentimental Libra like a moth to a flame. Inevitably, you may see challenges arise, due to the square aspect separating Cancer and Libra. Your approach to emotions is radically different from theirs, so your relationship will have its challenges. You can overcome them by deepening your understanding of air-sign emotional processing. Libras are often in their heads about things, but rarely emote outwardly. Don’t take this as proof that they lack empathy.

Leo

You’re courageous and extroverted, Leo, while your Libra is charming and likable too. You both draw a crowd when you step out together, and you’re a great-looking couple. The harmony between you is immediately evident to onlookers, and for good reason: your sign forms a sextile with Libra, creating a free-flowing and easy energy between you. You help each other climb the social ladder and help one another achieve success, especially in creative endeavors, but watch out for stagnancy and superficiality in your relationship. You could grow to take each other for granted.

Virgo

Since your sign falls one house after theirs, Virgo, your Libra is pretty likely to have some Virgo influences in their chart themselves. Your careful analysis of the details and methodical approach to work is an inspiration to the less rigid Libra, who will look to you for advice on how to realize their dreams in a tangible way. You have the skills necessary to construct, while they have the aesthetic flair needed to envision a beautiful space. Together, you could build a remarkable life and home.

Libra

You understand yourself better than anyone, Libra, which makes loving another individual who shares so many commonalities a lot easier than you might think. However, same-sign relationships can bring challenges, due to the fact that you both tend to notice the most frustrating traits in each other that you refuse to acknowledge within yourself. What’s more, you’re both indecisive, so it’s unlikely your partner is going to be able to pick up the slack. Work through these challenges by keeping the lines of communication wide open.

Scorpio

You and your Libra are a dynamic duo, Scorpio. Since your sign falls one house after theirs, you are meant to dive deeper into their world, glimpsing beyond the light and airy veil. The darkness is familiar and comfortable to you, while it remains largely impenetrable to the Libra, who nonetheless often has some Scorpio influence within their own chart. If their shadow self is frightening to them, you will have to cultivate patience with them and understand that they prefer to live as though the world is an art museum, not a curiosity shop.

Sagittarius

You are a spirited and bohemian type with an impulsive streak, Sagittarius, while your Libra doesn’t mind taking a backseat and simply observing the show. You’re both keen appreciators of the finer things and have similar interests, though you’re more likely to seek answers to lofty philosophical questions and your Libra is probably content to remain wondering. The cooperative energy between you and your Libra is due to the sextile between you, one of the most pleasant aspects two signs can share in synastry.

Capricorn

You’re known for your “all work and no play” attitude, Capricorn. Libra is quite dissimilar. Your signs square each other, making it difficult to understand one another. Oftentimes the square aspect drives people in relationships into a deeper and more transformative journey of psychological understanding, so you’ll be happy to know that you can use your differences to better comprehend the Libra approach to doing life. They’re likely going to remind you that the things you worry about are not that deep and pull you out of your self-imposed prison when you’re close to burning out.

Aquarius

You might think no one can truly understand you, Aquarius, but Libra comes awfully close. As a fellow air sign, Libra complements your energy well while forcing you to come down from the clouds when you start acting a little too pretentious for your own good. Since your signs form a trine, you’re superficially compatible, and you share a love of humanity. However, you may run into difficulties when you realize that your Libra is more interested in the micro world over the macro, where you spend much of your time.

Pisces

You’re a mystic and a dreamer, Pisces, but you can’t expect your Libra to come with you on every shamanic journey. This is due to the quincunx separating you, creating tension and dissonance. Since you are both lovers of art and tend to have creative tendencies, your relationship could feel like an exploration of foreign, or perhaps forbidden, terrain. You will have to learn to understand the Libran approach to art, which is more relaxed and lassez-faire than you are used to.
