Scales in your life.
The Libra Man
When it comes to charm, there is no one more appealing than a Libra man. He is often
the handsome tough-guy type but with a rare sensitivity that makes him irresistible. Men
born under this sign are often drawn to artistic and creative careers. They usually marry,
often at a young age. Because they are generally good-natured and accommodating,
Libra men are happy to do their share of housework. They are supportive and enthusiastic
about their spouse's career.
The Libra Woman
Because she is usually so attractive and charming, it is sometimes difficult for men to appreciate
the talents and intellect of the typical Libra woman. In many ways she is the most feminine of
the zodiacal types. It has been said that although she thinks like a man, she reasons like a woman.
These women have a natural ability to make relationships work. Though self-sufficient, they are
not happy alone and usually have a partner in their lives.
The Libra Child
Libra children are naturally sweet and obedient. Even on rare occasions when their behavior is
rebellious or aggressive, they are more well-mannered than other children. Adolescence brings
big changes; this is often the first time that the placid Libra child becomes difficult. They usually
manage to retain their lovableness, but their freedom-loving nature often draws them into controversy.
The Libra Lover
Libra men and women are the most romantic among the zodiacal types. Venus-ruled, they have an
idealistic view of love and togetherness. Once these people fall in love, they start thinking of marriage.
Libras don't enjoy romantic suffering. Whenever they are disappointed in a relationship, a Libra man or
woman will spend a little time grieving and then move to another partnership.
The Libra Friend
Because they are very social people, Libras make good friends. Libras are great counselors, because
they have the ability to weigh the pros and cons of an idea fairly and without bias. They love giving
parties, and they have talent for making people feel at ease. Although they may seem superficial at
times, anyone who knows these charming men and women understands that they have an
intriguingly profound side to their nature.
