Libra in a Glimpse…

Lodestone of the zodiac, Libra comes packing the kind of placid detachment that leaves friends and lovers lamenting. Like all air signs, analytic and intellectual, she’s a social creature and downright entertaining when she chooses to be. Moody or magnetic, she’s an impressive multitasker and peripatetic if you ask her.

There’s a lot of blah blah about Libra’s sense of balance because her symbolic scales stand for the decency she defends. But sometimes she’s swinging those symmetrical things high over her head in a circular motion, with more of a score settling notion.

When in the wild, your Libra has the liver of a child who’d hop over bog to hell and back self-styled with a rucksack and only one wellie. Her other lonely beaver-lined boot abandoned, that way she doesn’t stay stuck in the muck.

Libra Personality Traits

Equipoised Found on the neutral ground between any two extremes, a Libra battles for harmony supreme. An impulse which bodes well for acquaintance with both art and the smart set. Call it a curator’s critical eye yet if this aesthetically inclined sign goes pro, she’s got a lot of quivers in her bow. Because Madame straddles the golden mean of a slap happy medium seldom so well seen.

Liaison Needing a natural negotiator? Protectress of protocol? Or diva du decorum? This gracious go-between is a queen of stubborn cases and covers all the bases, ably bringing belligerents back to the table. Patron saint of ids and superegos annoyed, (Just ask Freud.) Libra’s a fab forger of allies alloyed.

Connoisseur There’s no pulling the wool over a Libra’s eyes on the provenance of a painting. She’ll sniff the difference in turpentine. Of epicurean prowess or the terroir of wine, this sign’s discourse is so serpentine, from dining out with the slippery-in-all-their-frippery, and on the kind of craic that keeps true cognoscente coming back.

Overthinker Imagine the burden of embodying blind justice. The gloaming of the day not enveloping your soul but spent foaming from something they call Hamlet Syndrome. Must be murder to have heard it all, to see many sides of a story magnified. The good news is on account of this no dear Libra ever died. Though their patience has been tried.

Libra Love & Libido

Satellite Think of the Libra in your life as lunar. A natural satellite with the sort of significant size and important pull that puts the ride in our tides. Don’t underestimate the moon’s diameter at one quarter that of Earth, or a lecherous stretch from Sydney to Perth. Her bulge-indulging density sways what would be whirlwind rotations to slow down our days. In so many ways purpose built for protecting population by bringing our bobbled wobble to a tilt. This lonely rock garnering Gaia guilt and glowing to the hilt; Girl’s got gravitas and she hides a dark side only NASA can see.

Egalitarian Modern parity doesn’t dare to spell the demise of wooing you. At least not in Libra land, a queer place where lusty peers still trust passion, finger-licking fun, and fetish fashion. A lotta hot lava love is mustered mouth to mouth or for that matter, much further south, bathed as such by the luster of celestial bodies clustered in the heavens high above.

Straight Shooter From the get-go, know the girl in question will be looking to hook up. She’ll condone a lifelong commitment chiseled in stone. Camus once confessed, “Every time somebody speaks of my honesty, there is someone who quivers inside me.” But see, with women of this sign, a stab at confabulation seals your fate. Lowball a Libra’s lie detector and luxuriate in what will be your last date.

Libra Style

Blow In Like a life raft Libra’s scintillating style wafts in to obliterate the bland and beguile. Meanwhile this dote’s bailing a boat that floats on pheromone-flavored cologne. And perhaps we can’t preclude an organic glue exudes from her glands alone but ahoy, why not pen one more ode to the joy again about navigating this girl-buoy game in our thirst for a first mate.

Even-Steven For a bigger bang, The Libra Look encompasses equal parts yin and yang. Celtic curves couple with supple stripes and finnicky florals taken too far. The whole mess accessorised by some come-hither signal saying I’m the deepest thinker in this bar. What links us to a man is we can all fall in the drink. But for a Libra we’ll soon find ourselves going down… hook, line and sinker.
