Libra Zodiac Positive Traits

Libra zodiac people are very witty, charming, and a great conversationalist. They are very good at soothing a sore temper or welcoming a stranger. Situations that call for social aptitudes are their forte. More than anything, they zero in on problem-solving and finding solutions, no matter what kind of problem presents itself. Because of this, diplomacy and listening to all parties involved is their strong suit. In their heart of hearts, the Libra zodiac is old-fashioned romantics, and they strive to keep their conversations pleasant at all times.

Libra Zodiac Negative Traits

Libra people love beauty and beautiful things; so much so that sometimes they get carried away with appearances and forget to look beneath the surface. Because of this, they tend to flirt, sometimes without realizing it. The problem is, that those on the receiving end may have a hard time deciphering if Libra is interested or just being social.

Another problem arises with their concerns about keeping the peace and making things pleasant. This can leave the Librans detached; they may merely pretend to be charming just to avoid conflict. Lastly, indecisiveness can be crippling for Libra star sign because they feel that they must weigh all the options before committing to anything. One wrong decision can be devastating!

Libra Man Characteristics

The Libra man is a pacifist and a perfectionist. He avoids conflict at all costs, and he strives to please everyone possible. The Libra male does this by studying all angles and listening to all points of view before deciding on anything. Making decisions of any kind, such as picking a restaurant or movie, takes a lot of patience on the part of others, as it takes him a very long time, however.

One thing that is both his draw and his potential downfall is his reputation as an irrepressible flirt. Even if the Libra zodiac guy is in a committed relationship, he will continue to do this, and it is difficult for him to see it as hurtful. Sexual conquest is rarely his purpose. Rather, he likes attention, admiration, and accolades. It seldom goes deeper than that. [Read the full article]

Libra Woman Characteristics

The Libra woman always takes time to look her best; essentially tasteful and classic. Never too bold or loud in any respect, she is tastefully feminine. She puts a great deal of effort into her conversational skills and prides herself on diplomacy and charm. Unfortunately, Libra women tend to be depressed easily. This is in part because they love beauty and fairness so much, but the world just doesn’t hold up to their ideals.

Because the Libra lady spends a great deal thinking about herself (her looks, her beliefs, her needs), she can seem a bit egocentric, but appearances are deceiving. The Libra female is just as interested in the opinions of others, and one of her weaknesses is changing her views in favor of others a little too easily (often to keep the peace).

Libra in Love

Libra in love is a charmer, surrounded by followers. But he or she tends to have a tumultuous love life. Libra zodiac sign is a perfectionist, and he or she demands perfection from a partner. If the partner loses a little luster or the butterflies aren’t fluttering anymore, Libra tends to move on to the next prospect. This will happen till the “right” one comes along; for some, that never happens. Sometimes, a Libra will take so long to analyze the situation that the love interest will take over or even walk away. Either option does not bode well for Libra. [Read the full article]

Libra Man in Love

A Libra man loves the idea of love and will go to great lengths to preserve it. Libra men know when to talk and when to listen; this is what makes them such good conversationalists. If he says nice things but seems distant, that is a warning sign, however. Remember, Libra men in love always hate to be the bearer of bad news. It is best to be patient with a Libra lover. He must work out for himself if this will pan out or not, and nothing will hurry him.

If the Libra male in love feels rushed or pressured, all bets are off. He loves to be flattered, and he loves beauty, so his partner needs to tell him how special he is and needs to keep up appearances. If his love interest starts to ignore her presence, he will take it personally. On the other hand, if his partner buys a new designer outfit, the Libra man won’t be upset about the price tag. Instead, he will appreciate the way it looks on her.

Libra Woman in Love

A Libra woman in love obsesses over beauty; beautiful things, people, places, and thoughts. She loves, more than anything else, to be told she is beautiful (but only if it is sincere). Social gatherings are her forte, mainly because she loves to talk and hear the latest news. She does not like mind games, for all of her charms.

If the Libra female finds someone she thinks would make a good partner, her mind goes on overtime, working out the details. He must be perfect, and the relationship must be perfect. Once she lets down her guard, she can be adorable and loyal. Remember Libra’s love for fairness, however. If you cheat on her, don’t expect another chance!

Dating a Libra: Love Compatibility

Since Libra is an air sign, the two other air signs (Gemini and Aquarius) are very compatible. This is because air signs are focused on people and looking at life through the lens of the mind. Gemini is the better match of the two because they are flexible enough to adapt to Libra’s demanding nature. Other good matches are the fire signs located closest to Libra (Leo and Sagittarius). Air gives fire the extra life it needs to sparkle.

While two Libra dating each other is a possibility, the fact that both like to use subtlety to gain control and both take a very long time to make decisions will likely doom the pair. The good news is that they will likely never argue until the breakup. The worst match for Libra zodiac sign is Capricorn because they are different. Capricorns are so focused on work and schedules that Libras will feel left out and possibly hurt. [Read the full article]

Dating a Libra Man

The most notable thing about dating Libra men is their even tempers. He is very social and flourishes in amicable relationships. He enjoys a civil debate and has a healthy habit of keeping his emotions out of it. Even more than the topic, when you are dating a Libra man, he likes to explore all sides and the logic behind both sides.

If you want to capture his attention, see if you can get him started by offering a topic and let him go. It is essential that you do not get overly emotional in the discussion, however, so think about your problem carefully. It is likely you will need to come up with the first date since Libra are known for their indecisiveness. Just make sure it is not something too wild for him to handle. Once in a relationship, the Libra man will work very hard to please you but don’t expect him to show love directly through emotion or affection.

Dating a Libra Woman

Starting a conversation when dating a Libra woman should not be difficult; they enjoy useful discussions, as well as flirting, so step on up! One thing to note, however, is that she will not appreciate a pompous, flashy individual, so just tone it down and be pleasant. Since wit and charm come naturally to her, you may feel like rushing things, but that is a big mistake. Give her time to think things through, and she will let you know if she is interested.

Like Libra men, Libra women’s ability to make decisions quickly is not their strong suit, so exercise patience. When choosing dates with Libra women, traditional ideas are excellent, but look for places where she can be social, too. Chances are, she will find people she knows, and she can bring you into her circle.

If you attempt to get to know her family, that will also be appreciated. Just remember that your Libra date loves beautiful things. If you don’t have much money, some flowers, or even a single flower, are a lovely thought. She does tend to overthink things, so give her the time she needs to decide if you are the one.

Libra Zodiac Sexuality

It isn’t unusual for Libra zodiac sign to start relationships early in life. This is not to say that they are obsessed with sex; rather, they feel the need to be “with” someone to achieve their need for balance. The physical aspect of Libra sexual relations is not their highest priority, but they do want everything to be fair. Therefore, they give and expect to receive attention in the bedroom.

The biggest problem is knowing what a sexual Libra thinks because, on the surface, a Libra is all smiles. Librans will do anything to keep the peace, but they may not be happy or even in love anymore, and they aren’t sure how to approach the topic without making a scene.

Libra Man Sexuality

The Libra zodiac man enjoys sex for the conceptual, rather than carnal aspects of it. He is aware that everyone is different, and what pleases them is different, too. He enjoys giving and receiving, and unlike other signs of the zodiac, he is very forgiving of partners who aren’t perfect.

Most Libra men sexually see their partners as equals. Rather than a struggle for power, they see it as a balancing act. In fact, Librans prefer to go slow when it comes to the physical act. For them, an evening in with beautiful music, good food and wine, and a partner who has spent time on his or her appearance is just as stimulating.

Libra Woman Sexuality

The Libra zodiac woman sexually is never in a hurry, and that means you shouldn’t be either. If you take your time to please her, she will do so for you. She loves to be told she is beautiful, charming, and “sweet nothings,” even before the subject of sex is even brought up. It is vital to keep the communication going between you at this stage, or else she will assume you have lost interest.

To keep the Libra female’s interest, maintain your appearance at all times to appeal to her pure nature. For the Libra woman, sex is about quality, not quantity. She takes her opportunity to learn about you and what you like, and she expects the same from you. Like her male counterparts, she forgives a less-than-stellar performance. For her, it is more about building a relationship based on trust anyway.

Libra as a Parent: Parenting Compatibility

To some extent, Libra parents are so focused on pleasing others that they can be a pushover, especially if they have strong-willed children. At the same time, a Libra’s children will never wonder whether or not they are loved. Also, because most Libra zodiac sign parents are funny and pleasant, their children look to their parents as friends and confidants. They will learn from Libra’s example how to compromise, how to handle social interactions, and how to appreciate beauty. Since consistency is not a Libra parent’s strong suit, learning how to put one’s foot down when it is essential and how to establish routines are vital skills to learn.

Libra as a Father

A Libra father enjoys fatherhood, but it is also fraught with stress. He longs for the day when his children are old enough to look to him as a pal rather than an authority figure. At the same time, he dreads the thought of his children disliking him because he tells them to do something they don’t like (or not to do something that they want to do).

Also, because Libra dads are so good at masking negative feelings, they often don’t show their disapproval when children do something wrong. This may lead kids to take discipline frivolously. The best trait of Libra fathers is their ability to teach their children right from wrong and about fairness. [Read the full article]

Libra as a Mother

If there is one thing a Libra mother will be sure to do, it is to make sure her children have all the best stuff while growing up. She cannot have them go without. She is also very present in her children’s lives and makes her presence felt, whether it is a recital or a game.

Documenting essential events and praising her children comes naturally tot eh Libra mom. Even more important is her modeling of a healthy romantic relationship with her partner. Unfortunately, like Libra fathers, Libra mothers need to learn to create boundaries, real consequences, and consistent authority with her children. [Read the full article]

Libra as a Child: Boy and Girl Traits

Libra children are social and other-centered from the start; they enjoy soothing hurt feelings or miscommunications. It is crucial that they have both a close friend or two and a group of casual playmates. They should never want company, and they should never be told to stop talking or asking questions! They have a natural curiosity about the world, and if that is squelched, your Libra child will be unhappy. Because they are so interested in maintaining the peace, anyone who is downright rude will set them off. An intervention may be a good idea when the Libra kids are very young, and discussions about how to handle situations like this are right when they are older. Your little Libra baby is a people-pleaser! [Read the full article]

Libra Fitness Horoscope

It isn’t hard for the Libra zodiac sign to see that both exercise and a healthy diet are essential to maintaining wellness. For that reason, it is not unusual to find Libra on a regular workout and eating schedule. Because Librans like to be social, group activities are a great idea. Consider taking classes with friends and tailor what you do to what you enjoy. For example, if the social aspect is the most important thing for you, consider dance classes or just plain dancing with friends! If you would rather stay away from high-impact exercise, circuit machines at a gym are a great alternative, and you can still do this with friends! [Read the full article]

Libra Career Horoscope

Being a diplomat and a people-person comes naturally to you, Libra. Consider careers involving your strengths such as being a translator, diplomat, salesperson, party planner, and so on. At the same time, your symbol, the scales, is a symbol of justice. Fairness is vital to you, whether it is for yourself or someone else. For that reason, and because you are an excellent communicator, you may consider work in the field of law enforcement, civil, or criminal law.

Lastly, your ruling planet, Venus, gives you a love of beautiful things. Many Libra people are having good taste and creativity. Libra, consider the possibility of working in the fashion, film, or decorative fields. Your one downside is a result of one of your strengths. You love people, and you like talking with people. Because of this, you may find your conversation with others more interesting than an upcoming deadline or other matters of punctuality. [Read the full article]

Libra Money Horoscope

Libra zodiac sign can decide a career that is good for them. The chances are that Libra can make a good deal of money. Unfortunately, Libra is also very good at spending money. It is just too fun to buy things or vacations for you or someone you care about! This is not to say they don’t watch their accounts and bill payments. They must weigh and balance all accounts and know what is happening. Overspending happens on impulse. When Libras come back to their senses, they will ensure that everything is back to normal; anything less is unsettling to them. [Read the full article]

Libra Fashion Tips

A Libra’s best feature is his or her face. Libra sun sign is having regular features, full lips, and almond-shaped eyes. Those who wear makeup can go for a sheer, natural look with just a hint of gloss. As for clothing, accessories mean to make a statement in only one or two pieces. Shoes need them practical, yet chic. Your clothing choices are appropriate to the occasion and style of the time; you will never look out-of-place! Libras play it safe with color and fabrics, but when coaxed to try something bolder like pinks and purples, the colors go great with their dewy skin.

Libra Travel Tips

Libra, ever in search of balance, will want to find it in travel destinations, too. Big cities like Paris or New York may be good options, mainly because of the galleries offering beautiful sights, but you will want to stay at a lovely, quiet penthouse with room service also. Too much noise or too much seclusion is not right for you. If this does not appeal, consider a getaway like Martha’s Vineyard, Malibu, or a trip down the French Riviera may be great alternatives. Social stimulation and relaxation time in equal amounts will leave you feeling refreshed. The most important factor to remember is that the Libra zodiac sign does not like to travel alone. A significant other or a group of enjoyable friends is key to having a good time for Libra. After all, you want to share your memories!
