Libra Zodiac Sign
Libra is a Cardinal Air sign that is ruled by Venus, the planet of love and beauty, which explains their inclination to beautiful things, and their desire to love and be loved. Libras adore things that make them charming and beautiful, e.g. skincare, makeup, and of course nice hair.
The Libra symbol is represented by the scales, which makes it the only Zodiac sign whose symbol is an inanimate object. The scale reflects their association with perfect balance in all areas of their life. They like to weigh everything and make compromises accordingly, anything to ensure peace and harmony.
Libra Personality and Traits
Libras enjoy networking and meeting new people, although they may want some time alone most times this doesn’t make them private or introverted people. They are very hardworking, but also enjoy lazying around at times. And again, it’s all about finding the perfect balance; knowing when to work hard and when to rest.
Because Libras are so good at seeing things from multiple angles, they often overanalyze things. It doesn’t even matter how clear-cut the situation is, they would want to look at it from every other person’s perspective. They do a lot of introspection too, without ever missing the overanalyzing part.
When you hurt a Libra, they will be quick to forgive because they don’t have time to hold unnecessary grudges. But one thing that is common with them is they never truly forget. When the situation demands, a Libra will definitely dig up the whole story.
Libras are born skeptics and won’t believe anything or rely completely on passed information until they see it with their own eyes. They choose to analyze things objectively so that they can come to their own conclusions. Libras are very fluent in the language of persuasion and know just how to negotiate. They use their logical reasoning to talk sense into people and convince them against a situation or settle disagreements in such a way that everyone leaves satisfied.
Libras and selfishness are like two parallel lines. They hate selfish and inconsiderate people and would stay very far away from them. Are you a hater? Don’t bother coming anywhere close to them because they will snub the hell out of you.
Libras have a laid-back approach to life; choosing to stay calm and relaxed even in the midst of chaos, instead of vexing and cussing over things that they have absolutely no control over.
Libra Strengths and Weaknesses
Libra has many traits that work together to make them the nicest in the Zodiac. However, they possess some other traits that make them not so good. We have classified these traits into their strengths and weaknesses which we are going to explore below.
Strengths
Here are some of the best Libra traits
Social
Libras crave human presence and conversations more than anything. They like being surrounded by people and tend to socialize a lot. For the typical Libra, nothing supersedes meeting new people and making new friends as this gives them the opportunity to learn new things and expand their circles more. Ultimately, Libra is one of the most extroverted signs in the Zodiac.
Fair
Libras frown at injustice and wouldn’t stand it when anyone is being treated poorly. They know exactly how to pick right from wrong, and will go out of their way to make sure everyone gets fair treatment. Also, they are quick to admit their own faults and won’t try to shift blames onto others.
Diplomatic
When there is an issue, a Libra would prefer to talk it out rather than give the silent treatment. They are known for being tactful and diplomatic with the people they interact with. Unlike other air signs, Libra would choose their words carefully, making sure they don’t come off as insensitive or blunt.
Idealistic
Driven by ideas, Libras are great at launching new initiatives. They are filled with positive energy and are always excited about chasing new ideas and starting new projects.
Clever
Libras are quite smart and intelligent. This is evident in the ideas they share and the conversations they lead. If you spend more time with them, you will get to engage yourself in thought-provoking conversations a lot.
Libra Weaknesses
Here are some of the worst Libra traits
Indecisive
On the flip side of fairness is indecisiveness. Libras can get all got up with evaluations that they end up not knowing what to settle with. They spend so much of their time weighing the pros and cons of a situation because they don’t want to wind up favoring one and getting others displeased by their judgment.
Unreliable
Just like every other air sign, Libra can be flighty and unreliable. They are not really the kind of friends you can count on in emergency situations. Although they are loyal and friendly, they are not the best basket to put all your eggs in.
Compromising
Libras don’t like conflicts at all and try to avoid them as much as they can. This is why they often put themselves last in most situations. They make a lot of compromises, holding onto positivity up to the point where it becomes toxic and starts to take a toll on their self-confidence.
Libra in Relationship
Libra seeks long-term and more meaningful relationships. They love to be loved, be in love, and love others. They believe in true love and will commit to a relationship when they find their person. Libras tend to gravitate towards people who will make their beauty shine more, therefore to win a Libra and get them to stay, you have to have what it takes to ensure that they are properly maintained physically. Libras want to be loved deeply and cared for; they want to be spoilt, pampered, and treated with the most beautiful things in life.
You should remember also that these guys don’t like to be left alone, so you must be ready to engage them at all times. Libras want a partner with whom they can chat and debate any time any day, so you should be open to difficult and intellectual conversations. Mind you, due to their very charming nature, Libras are very flirty. This doesn’t mean they have any intentions of cheating on their partner or anything; they just have their way of attracting people without even trying.
Libras like trying new things with their partners, and they quite enjoy activities like exploring nature, seeing art galleries, or doing something creative together. This can help tighten the bond and build more intimacy between both parties.
Ultimately, Libra’s love language is the act of service, and as a sign who loves and cares deeply, they always make sure that they extend to their partners all the gestures they like to receive.
Libra Compatibility with Other Zodiac Signs
Libras can get along with almost any sign. However, they possess certain traits that often clash with those of some other signs. Here, we will look at the signs that Libra is most and least compatible with.
Compatible Signs
The air sign trio make wonderful companions for one another, therefore Libra is compatible with Gemini, Aquarius, and their fellow Libra. Similarly, Libra is the perfect romantic match for the fire sign, Aries, who happens to be their exact opposite.
Incompatible Signs
Libras are not very compatible with the water signs (Pisces, Scorpio, and Cancer) because they are too sensitive and introverted for the outgoing and sociable Libra. Also, deeply-rooted earth signs (Taurus, Capricorn, and Virgo) may find Libra’s flightiness quite disturbing.
Famous Libra
Some famous Libra men are Will Smith, Bruno Mars, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Lil Wayne, Zac Efron, Usher, Hugh Jackman, Nick Cannon, and Donald Glover. Some famous Libra women are Kim Kardashian, Cardi B, Halsey, Serena Williams, Kate Winslet, Gwen Stefani, Dakota Johnson, and Hillary Duff.
