Libra Astral Profiles and Compatibilities

Libra is the sign of the zodiac that is most associated with relationships, especially romantic ones. Social interaction is at the heart of the nature of this sign and relationships are the means through which it expresses itself naturally. For this native, relationships are so important that the harmonious development of its personality, whether in terms of love, family or work, depends largely on the quality of the relationships it promotes.

According to Astrology, Libra has a natural compatibility with the natives Leo, Aquarius and Gemini. Any one of these signs can entertain Libra for hours on end, which for this native is halfway to physical attraction. Aries is the opposite sign of Libra, and despite or because of their differences, they are two compatible signs. Together, they have the ability to balance each other out and bring out the best in each other. Libra's affinity with the Water signs is not very harmonious, particularly with Scorpio and Cancer natives, being more peaceful with Pisces. With Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn, the association can be less tense, but it still doesn't quite reach the point of balance that so pleases and satisfies Libra.

According to Astrology, the signs of the Zodiac that share the same energetic charge, the Primordial Element (Fire, Earth, Air, Water), energize each other, while signs of different Elements may have greater difficulty in relating to each other. Fire follows the motto “it is better to travel with hope than to arrive”; Earth prefers “arrival”; Air works “as a function of intellect and logic”; Water follows "the ebb and flow of the tide of feelings". Together, the four Elements represent opposites but also the complementarity of astrological archetypes.

Compatibility of Libra and Cancer

Libra is ruled by Venus, the masculine sign, with the most refined, civilized and diplomatic personality in the entire Zodiac. This sign is a bridge builder and a strategist. Cancer is a sign ruled by the Moon, feminine, being considered the most lovable, sensitive and available among the signs of the Zodiac.

The signs Libra and Cancer have opposite personalities, which attract each other. Libra is a Cardinal sign ruled by Venus. It has a rich personality and a very strict thinking structure. Cancer, a Water sign, has a charming and whimsical, dreamy personality, wildly intuitive and is extremely sensitive.

Libra marks a passage for the couple, for any type of relationship that involves a commitment over time. The Air signs, unlike the Earth signs, live free, without roots. They are people without stable connections. Libra has a desire for connection, since it is a sign that is closely linked to issues of communication and affectivity. This native cannot live without the presence of others.

Libra is the Air sign that suffers most from its inconstancy and the contradiction it contains within itself, as it struggles between the need to love and the need to please. It has a charming personality that seduces Cancer with attention and diplomacy. On the negative side, Cancer, that eternal jealous (and flirt...), may feel insecure about its partner's great ability to please. Libra doesn't deal very well with scenes of jealousy and distrustful postures.

The Libra man is a romantic in need of affection, which he finds in the arms of the Cancer woman. Both signs have a strong personality, and can get into a power struggle when they distrust each other's fidelity. When hurt, Cancer takes refuge in its hard, protective shell, and attacks its opponent with strong, deadly pincers.

Still, Libra and Cancer have different natures. Cancer is introverted and takes a place in the family life; Libra is outgoing and seductive, always tempted by social life. Cancer has a dominating personality and may be tempted to restrict Libra's freedom, which Libra will have difficulty accepting.

How the Air and Water Signs Relate to Each Other

The Air and Water combination can be problematic, as Water tries to show how it feels while Air spends hours explaining what he thinks. Thus, harmony between two natives of these Elements is uncertain and unlikely to occur.

Normally, Water does not have the swift spirit and cold methodology of Air, lacking the ability to recognize what is beyond appearances. When together, it is normal for these Elements to try to change each other, which does not always work. Water will always require more sensitivity and a more serious recognition of your feelings, and Air will try to urge Water to be less emotional and sentimental.

Water needs a partner with whom it can share its wealth of feelings, and rarely asks for a true response from Air, who has great difficulty in showing how it feels. Its psychological orientation simply does not allow it to understand the sentimental currents inherent in an intimate relationship.

Deep down, Water demands from Air something that it doesn't have, or that it can't handle easily: a genuine passion, commitment and depth. If the situation reaches this extreme, where each one demands changes from the other that are unlikely to happen, both end up distancing themselves. For this reason, a relationship between these two Elements will hardly work unless the feeling and complicity that can unite them is strong enough for both of them to invest in the relationship.

The Air Element and the Astral Personality

Air signs are, above all, mental and intellectual. Air is a master at relating concepts. The Air Element brings together the Wet characteristic that conveys a great mental flexibility, this flexibility in thinking about things and reflecting. They are all-encompassing personalities with a broad vision, unlike Earth Element people who tend to focus on the detail.

In relationships, the Air personality is sensitive and seductive and emphasizes intelligence. For natives of this Element, the best companions are those of the Earth sign. These teach them the means to realize their ideas which, without their help, would remain purely abstract.

The Water Element and the Astral Personality

The most obvious feature of the Water Element is sensitivity. Unlike the Fire Element signs, which represent activity and faith in “moving mountains”, the Water Element signs represent emotions, sensations, perception. Empathy, intuition, fantasy, dreams, affections, feelings are the field of action par excellence for this personality.

The Water signs are like sponges. When placed in a positive environment, where everything is fine, the person is fine and feels emotionally balanced. If, on the contrary, you live in a toxic environment, charged with negative energies, you feel bad and pessimistic.

A Cold and Wet Element, it is a personality that easily molds itself to people's opinions and to the characteristics of the environment. It collects various influences, but it fails to organize them and give them coherence. It is a whole made up of several loose parts that cannot be linked together.

Astrology and Compatibility Between Zodiac Signs

Affinities in relationships manifest themselves in a variety of ways and Astrology can give some clues about how the signs interact with each other. Astrology tells us that the greatest compatibilities arise when two people belong to the same astrological element, as they share the same vision of reality and have a similar way of being and living.

Likewise, the attraction between two opposite signs can be instantaneous and the relationship tends to be harmonious. However, this does not mean that there are no affinities between people belonging to signs of different elements. Where there is love, affection and understanding, life happens. How the relationship evolves depends on many factors, astrological profiles being just one of them.

This is a result of the astrological profiles of the signs that you chose based on the analysis of the compatibility between temperaments, energies and characteristics. This analysis is based on general data, being valid for all types of relationships, whether love, friendship or work.

A detailed and personalized study is only possible through a synastry report. Although the profiles of the signs allow us to deduce whether they are more or less compatible with each other, only through the birth chart is it possible to make a realistic interpretation and draw true conclusions.

Remember that relationships are influenced by multiple variables, astrological being just one of them. The force of will, commitment and free choice condition the way in which relationships can or cannot progress in a favourable way. Any relationship, regardless of the influence of the stars, can work as long as there is a desire for it to happen, on both sides.
