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
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 Ray,
First, congratulations! We're so happy that you met someone!
Okay, don't change too much about yourself (the brashness, the boldness, etc) - it's going to be one of the reasons why she'll fall for you, and since the two of you are opposite signs, it's a big draw.
If things go well, and you become more serious, you can try to be a little more even handed.
Finally, if/when you go out, don't forget your manners- she'll hate that. Good luck and keep us posted!

Well, Aries and Libra are opposite signs, so there's usually plenty of attraction, but as with all opposite signs, there's sure to be some conflict too. Just try to keep that in mind, stay calm together, and work through it, and it should be fine. Thank you for the post and good lcuk!
