Libra Overview
Libra, symbolized by the scales, is the sign of marriage and partnership. It might be said of the Libra people that they are the most fitted for partnership of any sign in the Zodiac. Librans are balanced, serene, temperate, intellectual, analytical and harmonious.
Like Gemini and Aquarius, Libra is an air sign, but it differs from both of these signs in many ways. The air signs indicate a high type of mentality, but Libra people have the most artistic, aristocratic and social mind of all three.
Libra is ruled by Venus, and in both appearance and temperament Librans show the highest Venusian qualities.

Libra 2023 Horoscope
You’re happiest when you’re surrounded by beauty and peace, so will 2023 bring you the harmonious energy you desire? It looks likely.
Early in the new year, your home planet Venus, ruler of love and money, starts spending time with unique Aquarius and your house of creativity and spontaneity, sending you on a quest to find out what makes you truly special. What excites you and makes you feel most like yourself when you’re doing it, Libra? Finding out more about yourself contributes to your personal equilibrium.
Serious, hardworking Saturn is also in Aquarius and your creativity zone at the start of the year, which helps you come up with new and imaginative ideas to further both your career and personal life. It’s time to bring something new to the table and see how your individual talents can contribute not only to your own success but also to the greater good. As you think about both your own personal happiness and making the planet a better place to live, it’s time to move into the future, leaving behind old, outdated customs, traditions, routines and procedures.
Starting in late September, the sun travels through your graceful, charming sign for a month, so it’s time to start planning your stylish birthday celebration! Most Libras have a timeless physical beauty that other people envy, and your fair-minded, impartial and charismatic personality draws people to you naturally, so you won’t be hurting for company on your big day if that’s what you desire. Your ideal birthday (whether alone or with friends and family) is spent in a peaceful, beautiful setting with a breathtaking view, perhaps somewhere high in the mountains!
Couples
You’re able to see things from all sides, Libra, which makes you an excellent partner and lover. Joint decision-making can be difficult, but your ability to come up with a solution that works for you both is a valuable talent in a relationship.
Luna is our emotional guide, and during the full moon in your balanced sign early in April, your ability to be fair-minded is at its peak. Identifying those areas of your relationship that feel out of balance is the first step to addressing and rectifying them. During this first house lunation, your biggest challenge will be letting go of your ego in order to reach a decision that works for both of you. The ability to compromise is the key to exiting from this full moon phase as a healthy, loving couple.
When beautiful Venus hooks up with your charming sign early in November, however, you have very little problem getting exactly what you want! We’re not going to say you’re manipulative, but we will say that you know precisely what to do to get your partner to say yes! You know what you bring to the table, and while you probably won’t say it out loud, you know that your partner is lucky to have you. Let’s just leave it at this: the more you work it, this very strong astrological placement definitely works to your advantage!
Singles
The sun will be passing through friendly, social Aquarius and your house of love affairs at the end of January, and with the Aquarius new moon occurring at the same time, there’s big potential to bring some very interesting new connections into your life. The dating scene could get quite weird (in a good way), so why not explore some alternative dating apps and places to meet people? Going outside your comfort zone can lead to some really fun, exciting, passionate moments.
When your ruler Venus heads retrograde in mid-July while accompanied by dramatic Leo and your eleventh house of social connections, someone from your past could seek you out and make a bold (and definitely unexpected) reappearance. Seeing a comment or DM from them pop up on social media or actually running into them in person could be a shock, but this can be a good time to get some closure. If you’re considering giving them another chance, go all in. This time around might be different, Libra. How amazing would that be?!
But if you’re completely ready to shut the door on the past, brand-new sparks can fly as the sun travels through your charming sign from the end of September to late October. You’re really feeling yourself now, however, so it will take a strong, smart, good-looking person for you to give them a second glance. You’re looking for your true equal now, and nothing short of that will do. Because you’re fair, you will give almost anyone a chance to prove themselves, but if they don’t measure up, they’re done. You’ve just got it like that, and you don’t have time to waste, tbh.
Money & Career
Will you get lucky this year, Libra? By looking at Jupiter, the expansive planet most connected with our destiny, we see that this year it starts in Aries, highlighting your seventh house of partnerships. This is closely tied to marrying into wealth and getting favorable judgments in financial lawsuits, so if you’ve got any of that going on, good for you! For the rest of you, keeping a steady, balanced outlook on your finances will help increase wealth in addition to creating lucrative partnerships and collaborations with other established people in your chosen field.
Money-motivated Venus joins ambitious Aries late in February, adding some excitement to your current job or encouraging you to move on and find new opportunities elsewhere. This fiery energy pushes you to keep moving and looking for the next best thing, so if you’re unemployed or looking for a more lucrative position, this is a good time to pursue a career that will keep you moving physically (police officer, firefighter, construction worker, etc.) and up the career ladder (maybe literally), as well.
And between early September and the end of December, lucky Jupiter will be retrograde in stubborn Taurus as it highlights your eighth house of transformation, which could cause a slowdown of wealth growth. Regret over past money-related decisions could come into play here, as well as thoughts of revenge against someone who’s done you wrong in a financial sense. It might be tempting to try to get your money back if you feel you lost it due to dishonesty (via a scam or “friend” who never paid you back), but efforts like these usually don’t end well. As much as it hurts to just cut your losses and walk away, this might be your best option.

VIRLIBRA (VIRGO/LIBRA) – September 19 – September 24
Zodiac Position: Approximately 26° Virgo —2° Libra Seasons: Late Summer/Early Fall (equinox) Elements: Earth/Air Qualities: Mutable/Cardinal Rulers: Mercury/Venus Symbols: The Virgin/The Scales Modes: Sensation/Thought
Also called the Cusp of Beauty, VIRLIBRA is an overlapping and admixture of the sixth sign of the zodiac, Virgo, and the seventh sign of the zodiac, Libra. VIRLIBRA can be likened to the period around forty-two years of age in the human life and arrives at the beginning of Autumn in the northern hemisphere (September 23 marks the fall equinox, when the length of days and night are again equal). Ideally, during the bountiful days of September the abundant harvest is in full swing and will soon be over. Astrologically, this time marks the completion of one and a half Saturn cycles: one revolution back to the point Saturn occupied at the time of a birth takes twenty-eight years, and Saturn in forty-two years has now come directly opposite that point. This Saturn transit is paralleled by Uranus having also moved to a position directly opposite that which it occupied at the time of birth. Because the human life is taken ideally to equal eighty-four years (one Uranus cycle), forty-two years may be regarded as the midpoint in the cycle. At this time in life, a crossroads is often encountered (referred to as the mid-life point) where people can become taken up with the appreciation of beauty in a variety of forms. Some at this time grow concerned with their own appearance (perhaps involving themselves in health or cosmetic treatments) and others seek to identify or associate with those who possess youth or physical attractiveness. Still others are able to discover a new more mature ideal of beauty that is both profound and enduring.
Accordingly, the days which comprise the VIRLIBRA cusp exemplify some aspects of the search for Beauty, where the rational and discriminating elements of Virgo easily merge with the airy, social qualities of Libra.
THE VIRLIBRA PERSONALITY: As mentioned, VIRLIBRAS are often taken up with the pursuit of beauty and sensuousness. Perhaps they are drawn to attractive people, the arts, precious objects and the like, or desire to make themselves, their family members, living space or lifestyle in general more aesthetically appealing. Not surprisingly, attentiveness and concern for details makes VIRLIBRAS excellent in managing the smooth, harmonious running of a business operation, project or family activity.
Every cusp personality comprises conflicting elements, being influenced by two very different adjacent signs. In the case of the VIRLIBRA however, these differences can become fully integrated around the central theme of Beauty. Both Virgos and Libras are concerned with matters of taste and aesthetic ideals. However, as sensation-thought types, VIRLIBRAS can lack depth in the emotional and intuitive spheres, which may lead some to regard them as being superficial. Undeniably, VIRLIBRAS are concerned with the outward appearance of things. But often what those born on this cusp are seeking is a perfect outward representation of their own inner vision, which comes from a very deep place inside them.
ADVICE FOR VIRLIBRAS: Don’t be overly concerned with appearances. Keep alive in your search for beauty — avoid becoming jaded, trendy or compulsive. Beware of neglecting spiritual goals or falling prey to excessive materialism. Keep your nervous system under control.
VIRLIBRA ATTRACTIONS: People born on the Virgo/Libra cusp are generally most attracted to other cusp people, particularly AQUARICORNS (Capricorn/Aquarius) and ARITAURS (Aries/Taurus) cusps.

LIBRASCORP (LIBRA/SCORPIO) – October 19 – October 25
Zodiac Position: Approximately 26° Libra —3° Scorpio Season: Mid-Fall Elements: Air/Water Qualities: Cardinal/Fixed Rulers: Venus/Pluto (co-Ruler: Mars) Symbols: The Scales/The Scorpion Modes: Thought, Sensation/Feeling
Also called the Cusp of Drama & Criticism, the Librascorp is an overlapping and admixture of the seventh sign of the zodiac, Libra, and the eighth sign of the zodiac, Scorpio. The Librascorp cusp can be likened to the period around forty-nine years of age in the human life and comes in the middle of fall in the northern hemisphere. During this period of the year winter crops are planted, animals go into hibernation for the coming winter, days are crisp and nights are frosty once more. The days grow shorter and the nights longer. In human development, at the age of forty-nine, the mid-life period is ending and middle age approaching. This is a period that can be characterized by the themes of Drama and Criticism. A heightened sense of the drama of life, both in a philosophical and personal sense, leads to an increased awareness of the dynamics of one’s own existence, both past and present, a highly critical attitude emerges which cuts away careless generalizations and sloppy thinking and aims for the essence of truth. Such an attitude can lead to profound changes in personal relationships, how leisure time is spent and in general to a reevaluation of one’s place in the world.
The days which comprise the LIBRASCORP cusp exemplify various aspects of Drama and Criticism, where the airy, social, theatrical Libra nature confronts the more serious, deeply feeling and critical nature of Scorpio.
THE LIBRASCORP PERSONALITY: The dramatic LIBRASCORP is one of the most critical individuals of the whole year. Those born in this period can perfectly embody the spirit of their age but also comment on it. No matter what walk of life they inhabit, their facile minds and often sharp tongues will mark them as individuals to be reckoned with. Most often, if asked their opinion they give it straight out, holding nothing back. Therefore, those born on the Libra/Scorpio cusp may be sought out for honest evaluations, but equally well feared and even avoided for their piercing frankness.
Every cusp personality comprises conflicting elements, being influenced by two very different adjacent signs. In the cases of LIBRASCORP, the highly developed social awareness of Libra can be well integrated with the powerfully controlling detachment of Scorpio. However, conflicts may also arise here between intellectual and emotional energies, which may be extremely difficult to bring into balance. Primarily thought-feeling types, LIBRASCORP can mistrust intuitive impulses.
On the other hand, those born on the Libra/Scorpio cusp also have a wild side, and can at a moment’s notice drop their objective stance in favor of risk and adventure. Furthermore, once they are committed to a situation they will usually refuse to stop until the denouement is complete (no matter how painful it may be). Because of their total involvement, and also their charm and attractiveness, LIBRASCORP may indeed be difficult to unseat from a position of authority or for that matter from a place in a lover’s heart.
ADVICE FOR LIBRASCORPS: Try to relax and have fun. Learn to be less picky. Do not cut yourself off from unusual experiences but maintain your poise and balance. Continue to battle with life and resist escapism or the throes of self pity. Leave the past behind and embrace the future. Cynicism and sarcasm are poison to you.
LIBRASCORP ATTRACTIONS: Librascorps are generally most attracted to other cusp people, particularly TAURINI (Taurus/Gemini) and CAPRITTARIUS (Sagittarius/Capricorn) cusps.
Famous Libras
Libra Suns have an easy grace and charm that is enviable. Many have melodious voices that are easy on the ears, which is fortunate since they love to talk. When their gift for the gab meets an inspired purpose, they’re at their very best.
Libra is associated with the scales, and they’re able to harmonize and bring peace to conflicted situations. They thrive in calm, aesthetically pleasing environments, and can be easily discombobulated by the chaos of modern life.
