Planets in Libra

Moon

The Moon in Libra gives a sense of understanding, tolerance and gentleness. Emotions and responses are expressed with warmth and charm, but an outwardly affectionate nature hides a cool interior. They are ambitious, but at the same time, very dependent on others. Sometimes they tend to have too much reliance on others and they may delay making important decisions.

Even-tempered, well-mannered and congenial, they display all those attributes that assures many friends and an active social life. Balance, harmony and domestic tranquillity are very important to them. They don't like disputes and disorder, and they do what they can to maintain a well-oiled social and business life. This is the sign of the consummate peacemaker and diplomat. They have a need to have everyone like them, and their emotional well-being depends on the approval others. They are very fond of people and don't enjoy being alone for very long. However, they are often too willing to compromise, allowing others to take advantage of them, sacrificing their own wishes for someone else's. It is very hard for them to be assertive and stand up for themselves.

Relationships are important to them and they don't like being alone. Stability rather than passion or excitement is their goal in a partner. Devoted and faithful, they spend a great deal of their time catering to the needs and desires of their mate.

They are good at planning, but often it is hard for them to get their plans into action and to see them through to completion. Decision-making can be difficult, as they can usually see both sides of every issue. For them, judgment is more important than execution. They are refined and they have a definite love of the art, music and culture, and may even have some natural artistic or musical talent.

Mercury

Mercury in Libra produces a mind that is rational, well balanced and judicial. They are polished in their expression, which helps them to appear diplomatic. They are easy to talk to because they listen with interest and they're polite, charming and honest in their response. They have a curiosity about people and the way they think, and getting along well with others is central to their interests.

Justice and balance are strong in their nature, and they can become stern when their principles are involved. They don't handle conflict well, and tend to back away and reject any contact with anyone who talks to them in a crude or uncouth manner.

They have such a tendency to study issues carefully before committing themselves, that they are really not readily adaptable to rapidly changing situations. Making a decision between two good options can be very difficult for them sometimes.

Venus

Venus is at its best in Libra because this its natural sign. It gives an innate ability to understand the feelings of others. They are a romantic in thought and action, sometimes leaving practical common sense behind, but love will soon disappear if their partner does not come up to expectations. They are particularly concerned with their personal appearance, and how their partner perceives them physically.

They have the ability to put people at ease and make them feel comfortable and at home. This charming persona makes them attractive to admirers. They are willing to make nearly any sacrifice for the sake of love and for their relationship. They have the ability to understand the feeling of the other person, especially their partner, and react in a perfect fashion. Close harmonious relationships are very important for them, and they don't handle conflict situations very well. To avoid these, they go out of their way being considerate, always trying to please. Their feelings are easily hurt, but they rarely hold a grudge or try to get even.

Mars

Mars in Libra is curtailed by the rules of social behaviour and the need for the cooperation and approval. Energies are very controlled and overwhelmingly favour the mental. Physical and sexual activity is enthusiastically undertaken in small doses, but stamina is easily depleted.

Aggression in any form threatens them, and they don't deal well with arguments, confrontations or physical combativeness. They are not the type of person who goes after what they want with much conviction. They have difficulty asserting themselves, and it can be hard for them to be decisive.

The normal assertive behaviour of Mars is tamed in Libra, and passions are never allowed to rule thinking. They are amiable, charming, generous and cooperative. Although they rarely push matters to extremes, but they do become very assertive when they experience injustice.

They often choose a very energetic and assertive partner, and as Mars can be somewhat lazy in Libra, they may need someone to push them along. Although they are very romantic and affectionate, their sex drive is rather low, and they expect more emotional satisfaction than physical passion.

Jupiter

Jupiter in Libra denotes an especially strong sense of justice, fair play and moral principles. Their excess of charm and intellectual talent can lead to great success. They are able to sway public opinion, winning others over to their way of thinking with their power of persuasion.

They are very considerate of others and understand the principle of cooperation for solving problems and making progress. They are attracted to individuals sharing their idealistic views.

Saturn

Saturn limits or controls Librans' innate charm, politeness and perfectionism while teaching the subject that actions speak louder than words. As Libra is associated with relationships, Saturn here may place obstacles in the path of romantic affairs and delay marriage. They may have an inferiority complex in forming relationships, and feeling unlovable, they may scare off prospective partners. A successful marriage will require much patience and hard work.

Uranus

Uranus in Libra often is linked to unique talent, coldness and superficiality. People born with this placement often find it more difficult than most to hang on to partnerships and relationships.
