Why is Libra’s oxygen relationship? Are they as charming as they believed? How can they be gainful and financially well-off? What is their strength, and what can cause them great difficulty? How come the sign that rules being diplomatic, kind, and charming is the same sign which the majority of the bloody dictators were born under?
What is Libra’s attitude towards each subject of life? And what is the highest and most positive manifestation for Libra in each area of their life?
There’s so much to uncover…
This article is for everyone who has Ascendant, Sun, or Moon in Libra or anyone who has the desire to understand this sign in-depth.
Please note that for analyzing the sign Libra in-depth, I use the Whole Sign House System– the most ancient one. It might be confusing for the first time to read about Libra while all the other 11 signs are mentioned. As every Zodiac sign is built up by the 12 signs, in other words, it consists in itself of the other 11 signs as well. Every Zodiac sign rules one particular area of life/astrological house for Libra. And that makes Libra a Libra.
I added the keywords for each house and each Zodiac sign that rules that particular house so you can make even more analogies with them. And those keywords will help you think in analogies as professional astrologers do.
Symbol: Justitia
Ruling planet: Venus
Color: pastel colors
Body parts/ organs: kidneys, paired organs, outer reproductive organs, urine, lower. back
Element: air
Modality: Cardinal
Main domains in general
Fashion, art, beauty, relationships, being equal, harmony, balance, marriage, spouse, negotiating one-on-one, being fair, fairness, being kind, diplomatic, contract, lawyers, judges, designers, promises, trading, selling, agreements, business deals, justice, bargaining, advising to others, having an attractive look and charming personality.
Venus-ruled, but different than Taurus
Venus’s main domains are relationships, beauty, beautifying anything, money- cash flow, art, jewelry, food, peace, harmony, pleasures, and pleasing the five senses. Basically, these are Libra and Taurus domains.
However, the sign Libra is different than Taurus in many ways. Libra is an extrovert, male, cardinal, and an air sign. It aims to add a harmonious touch to everything: such as relationships, any object- artistic creatures, and to introduce balance to all sorts of situations and relationships. That is why Libra’s main domains are negotiating and finding solutions that are convenient to both sides and compromise.
Venus-ruled people – who have Ascendant, Sun, or Moon in Libra or Taurus- are different, though.
The typical Taurus look is a natural look, earthly look, no-makeup look, with full lips curves, while wearing comfortable, good quality clothes. Here you can read more about Taurus.
While the typical Libra look is a refined, elegant look with elegant makeup, their clothes are color coordinated and harmonious, matching, nothing extravagant.
Those who were born under those signs can have such a beautiful look, especially if Venus is well-placed in their birth chart.
In a similar vein, they need to look good, to take good care of other appearance, their clothes. If Libra neglects their look and doesn’t take good care of themselves, it’s a sign that they are out of balance. And an out-of-balance Libra is a sad Libra… however, when a Libra has the perfect refined look, nice makeup, matching-harmonious, color-coordinated look, clothes, having beauty treatments, and harmonious and peaceful relationships that make the Libra very happy.
Making decisions
One of the main misconceptions about Libra is that they are not good decision-makers. This is absolutely false. They are quite good at making decisions; it just takes them a long time to make up their mind.
Like Gemini people, they see both sides of the coin or even more sides…
The symbol of Libra is Lady Justice or Justitia, the Roman goddess of justice.
Libra people know- as Justitia knows that there is no such thing as only one truth…
However, when it comes to making decisions, the krypton of Libra people is that they are prone to be people pleasers. This is because the motivation behind their decisions can be to please others.
Libras need to learn that it’s ok not to please everyone and not to be a people pleaser because it is impossible to please everyone.
Connect to that energy
Even if you are not a Libra and have no planets there and you can make more harmony, peace in your relationships, and fairness, or you want to be more diplomatic; you can connect to the energy of Libra. The more you connect to its energy, the more those subjects of life improve under Libra’s domain.
How to connect to this energy? Wear the Libra colors pastel colors and have decorations around you in pairs. Or read and learn more about the sign itself.
Jobs of Libra
Fashion, all sorts of jobs in the beauty industry, lawyers, judges, solicitors, negotiators, mediators, designers, models, manufacturing clothes, brokers, dealmakers, traders, and merchants.
It is a mental air sign; therefore, it is intelligent. One of the few signs that are symbolized by a human, not an animal. Btw it doesn’t mean that those signs whose symbol is an animal are not intelligent or smart.
It is a Cardinal sign. According to the Gregorian Calendar, when the month of Libra begins, the season changes too. Autumn begins in the Northern hemisphere.
The body organs ruled by Libra are the kidneys, outer genitalia, urinary, ears, and all the paired organs.
The 1st and the 8th house are connected through their ruling planet Venus.
The body, the path of life, is directly connected to the 8th house topics such as transformation, partners’ finances, and life-alerting events.
That is why Libra people experience significant transformation not only in their life but also in their appearance- as Venus rules the appearance. Their personality and psyche go through a transformation at least once in their life.
The 1st house is what the native identifies with. Libra identifies with transformation, joint finances, inheritance, intimacy, and bonding- Libra is the sign of one-on-one relationships and marriage, mind you.
As Venus provides easy access to whatever it touches, Libra people have easy access to those 8th-house subjects. Such as therapeutical healing, transformation, mutual finances, etc.
Libra and money, resources, and self-worth
2nd house: money, resources, food intake, where to invest your money, how you spend, self-worth, how to make money, right approach towards money, values,
Scorpio: big transformation, dark night of the soul, trauma and therapeutical healing, crisis, other people resources, control, power struggle, death, and rebirth,
Finances
The second house- the house of money, and finances are ruled by the sign Scorpio for Libra people.
Since it’s Mars-ruled- Mars is the drive, action, and making things happen- Libra people’s best approach towards finances is actively chasing financial opportunities and being proactive when making or creating financial resources.
Finances improve after marriage or in a committed relationship as the 2nd and 7th houses are connected by their ruling planet.
On the other hand, Scorpio is the strategy planer sign. Therefore, Libra people should have a strategy, a well-planned strategy for their finances, possessions, assets, and collections. And before making any strategy move with the finances, Libra should make a throughout the research as Scorpio rules deep research and investigation.
In a similar vein, Scorpio rules secrets; therefore, Libra people either should be secretive when it comes to their finances, possessions, assets, collections, and/or have a secret source of income. Therefore, something secretive should have with their finances.
As Scorpio rules, anything under the earth- Libra people can invest in oil, the earth’s treasures.
Values
Libra values relationships as the 2nd house- values- and 7th house- relationships/marriage are connected through their ruling planet, Mars. Libra values negotiating, making agreements, deals, contracts,
Self-worth
As Scorpio’s one of the main domain is experiencing extreme opposites, Libra people experience huge ups and downs when it comes to their self-worth. It can be very low and weak at some point in their life while at other times very strong.
What can increase their self-worth is having a great committed relationship or being married, as the 2nd house and 7th house share the same ruling planet. As well as anything that is 7th house-related such as negotiating, business deals, and business partnerships positively influences their self-worth.
The truth is all of the above, if gone wrong, possibly can ruin their self-worth. It works vice-versa. That is why Libra people should aim to go for good relationships.
It also depends on the condition of Mars in the natal chart.
2nd house and 7th house are connected
All the 2nd house domains are directly connected to the 7th house since both houses’ ruler is Mars. Therefore, Libra people’s finances and self-worth improve once they are married or in a committed relationship. As 2nd house is stable, a stable foundation having a good partner in life or spouse gives Libra people stability or a sense of stability. Business partnerships – also the 7th house matter- can contribute to their wealth too.
On the other hand, a not healthy relationship directly affects their self-worth.
As the 7th house is all about negotiating and making agreements, when it comes to finances, Libra people need to constantly negotiate, have agreements of some sort, have a partner,
Libra and communication, skills, business,
3rd house: the mind, logic, thinking, communication, teammates, siblings, how to communicate, skills, teammates, neighbors, close friends,
Sagittarius: generous, easy access, allowing, good karma from a past lifetime, meaning, higher purpose, high ideals, and goals, positive thinking, foreign matters,

Like to talk about philosophy, the meaning of life, high-minded topics, not mundane topics, and all the other Sagittarius-ruled topics.
Libra people should pay attention to details in communication in gathering information because Sagittarius is all about the big picture and easily miss important details. Or the details might make them bored.

Their home is either a bit dark, deprived of sunlight, minimalistic, or even colder.
An ideal place of living can be on the top of a hill mountain.
Mother or the primary caretaker and the native as a parent
One of the parents of Libra- usually the mother- had to work more or was a hard-working person and was usually distant from the life of the native, was busy with duties, and had more responsibilities. The mother set the (strict) rules for the family, and she was respected in society. The primary caretaker- usually the mother- was emotionally cold but aloof, rational-minded, or the native was somehow emotionally detached from the family.
The mother taught discipline, endurance, humbleness to the native, and work ethic.
Another possible scenario is that the father took the role of the mother, as the 10th house is ruled by Cancer, the primary sign of the mother.
As Capricorn rules work and responsibilities, Libra natives might have to work as a child or have some sort of responsibilities. Towards the family as a child. Or later in life, Libra becomes very responsible towards their family and parents or has to take care of them.
