The Libra Personality

Are you a Libran? Here are the general associations and character traits of those born between 24 September to 23 October.

Libra, the seventh sign of the zodiac is an air sign, ruled by the planet Venus. The Scales, the symbol for Libra, represent their strong sense of justice and fair play.

Your Libra Character

If you are a Libran, harmony is of key importance to you. You have a dislike of discord, tension, cruelty and injustice and your humanitarian nature will encourage

cooperation and peace in your environment.

However, if ever injustices do occur you'd be the first to fight on behalf of the victim. Generally however, you are patient and easy-going. Occasionally, you can be quick to anger.

Libra Horoscope

With the sun in Libra in your horoscope, despite your need for harmonious relationships, you can also be independent. Your friendships are important to you and you'll be basically honest and trustworthy.

But you are nobody's fool! You have a keen sense of perception and being able to judge wisely, you'll be aware when someone tries to take advantage of your generous nature. You'll just have your own more subtle ways of dealing with these people rather than encouraging an open confrontation!

Libra Personality

You can be surprisingly vain. You love to be loved and tactful persuasion, you are well aware, will win others over to your way of thinking. However your main concern is the need to please and to avoid unpleasantness.

You are not a meek little lamb. You may try, during your life, to avoid harsh, violent and filthy situations but, when the need arises, you can show a huge amount of stamina.

Libra Character Traits

You are generally easy-going with such a strong need for harmony, no matter where you are, you should try to avoid circumstances which may result in stress. You enjoy light sports and dancing .. such pursuits being beneficial to your physical health. Overdoing things perhaps lead to nervous strain and this should also be avoided whenever possible.

Your appreciation of beauty encourages an excellent dress-sense. You'll have clear awareness of which colour suits you best and which to steer away from. You have quite expensive tastes but you're not a one to overdo things. You do however enjoy your little luxuries and money tends to burn a hole in your pockets.

Libra Relationships

In your close relationships, as mentioned before, you will seek harmony. Though unfortunately you don't always get this especially if you have to deal with a jealous partner. You are prone to getting hurt in romance when your romantic ideals sometimes prevent you from seeing the wolf beneath the sheep's clothing.

Optimistic, charming and graceful, Venus-ruled Librans are happiest when socialising and when part of a loving relationship.

Libra Compatibility: Librans get on well with the other Air signs: Gemini and Aquarius as well as the Fire Signs: Leo and Sagittarius.
