Aries and Libra Compatible

From LoveToKnow Horoscopes

Are Aries and Libra compatible when it comes to romance? Well, one thing is certain. When the god of war and the goddess of beauty come together, fireworks are sure to follow!

The Aries Personality

Aries, first born of the zodiac and ruler of the first house of the zodiac wheel, is solely concerned about the “I” (the “we” is left to Libra and the seventh house). Fiery, brash and fearless, Aries natives rush headlong through life throwing themselves into new ventures with the enthusiasm and can-do spirit they are so well known for.

This devil-may-care attitude holds true in romance as well. In love, Aires likes it passionate, dramatic, extravagant, bold and direct. Lest we think Aries is selfish and self-centered (which they can be to some extent!), we need to understand a little bit about their ruler, Mars.

Mars, the god of war, is the very essence of aggression and physical/sexual energy. This planet's energy lends the spirit of leadership to Aries. Aries knows therefore, that when it comes time to lead, especially during the tumultuous battles of every day life, concerning oneself with the feelings of others is not always helpful. They are blunt and to the point, but are always there to lend a helping hand.

The Libra Personality

The world would be pretty boring without social, gay and charming Libra there to light it up! A connoisseur of all things beautiful and elegant, Libra likes things pretty! Venus ruled Libra is beauty personified, but don’t think for one second that all that beauty leads to empty headedness.

Quite the contrary. Since Libra rules justice and fair play, you’ll often see these Venus natives vacillating between two choices. This is only because they are carefully weighing the pros and cons of a situation. Much like the scales of justice, Libra will see-saw this way and that before elegantly, and beautifully finding a balance. This usually results in a solution that benefits all parties. If not that, then a solution, at the very least, that is just.

Now, onto romance. Libra loves love! They love everything about it, from the wining and dining, to butterflies in the stomach, to that deliciously tingling sensation in their toes; this is Libra’s idea of Heaven! This is because Libra rules the seventh house of partnerships and marriage. If Aries is in charge of the “I”, Libras is the master of the “we”. Some say love is a dance, and if that’s true, then Libra is in constant search for the perfect Tango partner!

Are Aries and Libra Compatible?

Are Aries and Libra compatible? To answer this burning question, we must turn to their compatibility horoscopes.

Compatibility Horoscopes: The Pros

Like most opposite signs of the zodiac, Aries and Libra attract! Here’s why:

  • You complete me: One of the biggest reasons for the almost instant attraction these two feel is that they each hold what the other lacks. Aries enjoys Libra’s charming explanations of why we should consider other people’s feelings, and Libra learns the importance of independence.
  • The Archetypes: You can call it cosmic or mythic, but when certain archetypes meet, something magical happens. Here it’s the god of war and the goddess of beauty. These two, mostly because they are so true to their archetypes, quickly become enamored and consumed by one another.
  • Fun: Another reason why Aries and Libra are compatible is due to the sheer fun these two have together! Aries is daring and bold; always ready for excitement. Libra is the perfect compliment, and audience, to Aries antics.

The Cons

Perfect partners?

Let's turn now to some possible pitfalls for this pairing.

  • Too many differences: Libra hates it when people are brash and blunt, and unfortunately, Aries is both! While Libra prefers things to be said delicately (to spare the other’s feelings of course), Aries cuts to the chase and says it directly. Libra may find it charming at first, but after being wounded one too many times, he or she might decide it’s better to walk away.
  • What about me? : Aries wants all of the focus to be on, well, Aries. Libra wants to focus on “us”. This can cause a major problem because to Aries, “us” really means “me”.
  • Flirting: It’s no secret that both of these signs like attention from the opposite sex, and while they each believe they “deserve” that attention, they simply can’t stand to see their partner receiving it. Libras also love to make their partners jealous, and Aries, with that fiery temper, might find him or herself in fisticuffs, at least from time to time, because of it!

How to Make It Work

Here’s what you need to do to make this pairing work:

  • Forgive each other of the little injustices you each may commit.
  • Trust one another.
  • Let the other take the spotlight from time to time.
  • Be direct about your feelings and talk through your differences. The two of you can make work it if you try!

Hi Swtlady,

I think it's great that you know how you feel- that's a great starting point. Okay, just be honest. Tell him, "hey, listen, things are going great; you're super cool. Would you like to meet and see how things go? No matter how things go, no harm, no foul- at least we already know that we're friends and on the same wave length. How do you feel about that?"

Tell him that and see how he responds. Please let me know how it works out!

Hi Jacqueline I know theres quite a lot but strangely enough we agree on everything. I really would like to have a chance with him, eventhough he may see that Im too young (but he enjoys our daily chats). In fact I just stopped talking to him right now and he said see u tomorrow (in a way that he is looking forward to it). He is in a continuous search for his soul-mate but as we discussed today he cannot find no one since all the women of his age are either married, taken, separated or not interested in relationships (And he wants even to have kids), in fact a friend of his told him to lower the age of the women he is looking at. I like how the things are right now but I feel that I HAVE to tell him how I really feel about him. Today i was going to tell him about how i feel but got blocked at the last minute and since it was late I didnt want to keep him up. Can you please maybe advise how can I start a discussion on this topic? Im really stuck!!!

Hi Swtlady,

No problem- we're happy to help if we can! Anyway, that is quite an age difference. 15 years is not too bad if you were, say, 30, but at 22 it may be a bit much. Do you want to be romantic with him (is that what you are looking for?)- if so, maybe you should just ask him if he's looking for a more substantial relationship. If that's what you are looking for, it may be best to know upfront what he wants. This way, you don't have to waste time. On the other hand, if you like the way things are right now, there's no need to step it up to the next level. How do you feel about it?
