Representatives of this sign have a fine feeling for harmony. Their behaviour is often dictated not by their own wishes but by the wish to make a good impression on others. They are always able to look at a situation, as it were, from the outside. It is precisely because of this quality that they find it hard to take important decisions on their own: first they weigh all the pros and cons and consult other people. Sometimes it seems that decisions are taken for them. But in fact this is not so. Libra weighs things up and chooses the proposal that suits them, yet will not tolerate pressure on their choice. They agree with everyone and then act their own way. Having taken a decision, they develop stormy activity to bring it to life. People of this sign are as a rule very well adapted to society, have a mass of useful acquaintances and know how to be friends. They prefer to act within the law and always calculate the consequences of their actions. Libra tries to keep abreast of everything happening to their friends and acquaintances and not infrequently compares themselves with them. Libra likes a clear division of duties, so when starting a family they prefer to draw up a marriage contract setting out the rights and obligations of both sides. They usually do not rely on intuition, preferring a sober calculation of the union's possible prospects. They feel at ease in small gatherings and at company parties, and easily win the attention of the opposite sex. If they wish, they can get to know anyone who has caught their interest. Close relations and family ties weigh on them. Libra's talents unfold vividly in the arts and wherever diplomacy is required. Venus, the ruler of Libra, gives them a longing for the beautiful and the ability to reconcile warring sides.
