Venus in Libra Compatibility, Why is Libra So Attractive?

Who Is Venus in Libra Compatible With?

Each planet is more comfortable in some Zodiac signs than in others, and Libra is one of the favorite places of Venus. The gifts Venus brings are therefore more easily received there.

Venus is associated with beauty, so people with Venus in Libra can have an advantage in that regard because Venus rules Libra. For Venus in Libra, however, beauty is not only skin deep. Such people place a high value on the ideals of justice, fairness, and harmony.

No matter where you have Venus in your birth chart, it speaks to what you value in life and how you approach love and money. Libra is the more intellectual of the two signs Venus rules, the other being physical Taurus.

Venus in Libra, therefore, does a great job articulating the ideals of Venus – a world where there is enough love, money, and beauty for everyone.

Libra Basics

Remember that each Zodiac sign is associated with a season, a mode (is it in the beginning, middle, or end of a season?), and an element. Each Zodiac sign is also ruled by at least one planet or luminary.

  • Libra Season: Fall in Northern Hemisphere; Spring in Southern Hemisphere
  • Libra Mode: Cardinal (first sign in its season)
  • Libra Element: Air
  • Libra Ruler: Venus
  • Libra Symbol: The Scales of Justice

Venus Basics: Which Sun signs can have Venus in Libra?

Venus stays within two signs of the Sun in terms of relative position to Earth. That means people who have Venus in Libra can have the Sun in only the following signs: Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, or Sagittarius.

A person with both the Sun and Venus in Libra has an interesting problem. While Venus loves being in relationship-oriented Libra, the Sun does not like being in Libra so much because Libra is not very good at asserting one’s individuality.

This person will truly shine in the realm of relationships, but they may have to develop the more idealistic side of Libra to get a sense of what really matters to them personally.

For a fire sign Sun like Leo or Sagittarius, having Venus in Libra is a moderating influence that helps them think before they act. The action-oriented fire signs can be a little rough around the edges, so Venus in Libra gives them more elegance than they would otherwise have.

Venus in Libra with the Sun in Scorpio is a great combination for the person who has it, though their ability to manipulate situations to their advantage might be trouble for the other people around them.

While Scorpio is the Zodiac’s plotter who is obvious enough to get caught being a plotter, Libra is a schemer who is suave enough to get away with it, and this side of Libra would be more likely to come out in a Libra-Scorpio blend.

Venus in Libra with the Sun in Virgo might bring out the most perfectionistic sides of both signs. As long as they don’t get too down on themselves for being unable to live up to impossible standards, such a person can accomplish great detail-oriented work.

Venus in Libra Personality

Like Taurus, Libra is a sign that Venus rules. While Taurus emphasizes the physical side of Venus that enjoys sensual pleasure, however, Libra is more focused on implementing the intellectual ideals of justice and beauty. 

Venus in Libra people have big dreams about how the world should be fairer, kinder, and better. Their ideas may at times seem unrealistic, but the intellectual precision of Libra helps them make step-by-step plans to achieve their goals.

Venus in Libra people are often charming enough to attract the help of others in achieving their goals.

Relationships of all kinds are very important to them. They hate to have conflict in any of their relationships, though, so it can be hard for them to take a stand when they really need to if it would lead to someone they care about being disappointed.

If anyone could work out a brilliant compromise that would end a long-stuck battle, however, it would be someone with Venus in Libra. This placement has a keen sensitivity to interpersonal dynamics and can get to the heart of what each side of the conflict is really looking for.

Venus in Libra in Love

A problem Venus in Libra people have in love is that they tend to like the idea of things. They may therefore rush into a relationship for the wrong reasons, though not necessarily for the same wrong reasons as their fellow cardinal signs.

While Venus in Cancer and Venus in Capricorn might be in love with love because they want the security of being in a relationship regardless of who they are actually with, and Venus in Aries just rushes because their speed is permanently set on high throughout life in general.

Venus in Libra is more likely to rush into love because the prospective relationship fits into some idea they have about how they should be or how the world should be.

A big idea many Venus in Libra people have about love is that it should fix all their problems. They can be wonderfully romantic, but they also tend to become so focused on their relationship that they lose track of themselves.

On one hand, Venus in Libra wants justice and fairness. On the other, Venus in Libra wants peace and quiet at the moment.

Love relationships for Venus in Libra people are a balancing act between these two extremes, but they gradually learn that standing up for themselves is sometimes necessary for lasting harmony.

Venus in Libra Man

The Venus in Libra man may be a little vain. He is just trying to live out his romantic fantasies, though. Those, of course, feature him looking good while he catches the mate of his dreams.

The Venus in Libra man seeks a partner who shares his lofty ideals and can collaborate with him to bring them into reality. The hard part for him may be getting to know his partner as an actual person, as he tends to like the idea of someone and then fill in the details from his own head.   

Venus in Libra Woman

The Venus in Libra woman may be pretty, but she is no airhead. She has a keen interest in the interpersonal dynamics around her, and she is continually analyzing how she fits into them.

Venus in Libra women sometimes find it hard to extricate themselves from relationships with others who have more dominant personalities.

They are attracted to the challenge of pleasing the unpleasable, but the scarier challenge of developing their own capacity for leadership may bring them more lasting benefits.

Who is Venus in Libra compatible with?

It is important to look at Venus signs in assessing relationship compatibility with astrology because Venus rules your values and your approach to love.

If you have Venus in Libra, your best compatibility matches are partners who have Venus in Leo or Venus in Sagittarius. Their passionate fire element helps take action to make Venus in Libra’s dreams a reality.  

To check Venus sign compatibility between yourself and a partner, use the synastry tool below.

Best Match: Venus in Libra with partner’s Venus in Leo or Sagittarius

Leo and Sagittarius are the fire signs closest to the air sign Libra. The four elements – fire, earth, air, and water – typically break down into two groups two: fire and air, and earth and water. Older astrology texts often refer to fire and air signs as masculine and water and earth signs as feminine.

In today’s world where people of all genders are able to express a broader variety of roles and traits, perhaps a better way to understand the difference between the two groups of signs is to look at their focus.

Water and earth signs tend to be interested in security and in maintaining the structure that exists. This can include the domestic stay-at-home parent, but it can also include the sort of person who looks for a job that is stable and guaranteed.

No matter what happens in the world, industries like education, healthcare, food, and banking aren’t going anywhere. Those lines of work are therefore full of earth and water sign for people of all genders.

Fire and air signs are interested in innovating and exploring. Even if they are found in stable industries, they find the wilder parts of those industries.

While an earth or water sign person might be happy with a financial job that involves managing conservative investments for retired people, a fire or air sign person might get curious about the riskier side of the financial industry like options trading.

Similarly, the fire or air sign worker in the healthcare industry might gravitate toward experimental therapies. As in the theory underlying Chinese medicine, there’s Yang within the Yin.

The theory of Yin and Yang, as described by the Traditional Chinese Medicine World Foundation, works well for understanding the difference between the fire and air signs and the earth and water signs.

Yang is the outwardly focused energy of fire and air signs, and Yin is the inwardly focused energy of the earth and water signs.

While the air signs dream up new courses of action, the fire signs make the action happen. Venus in Leo, who is just plain cheerful, can therefore be an excellent cheerleader for Venus in Libra.

Venus in Libra tends to scheme to make the world a better place and can get depressed if such a scheme does not work out. Venus in Leo, however, can help Venus in Libra pick up the pieces and figure out how to move forward.

Venus in Leo can also help Venus in Libra realize that it’s okay to enjoy life as it is before perfection has been achieved. Venus in Leo is less refined than Venus in Libra, but Venus in Leo knows how to have a good time.

Venus in Sagittarius is more like Venus in Libra in terms of concern for appearances. When it comes to telling the truth, however, Venus in Sagittarius is blunt. Venus in Libra is used to thinking that decorum and honesty are mutually exclusive, and Venus in Libra is used to picking decorum.

The example of Venus in Sagittarius can therefore be liberating for Venus in Libra.

Venus in Sagittarius and Venus in Libra both enjoy socializing and could throw excellent parties together.

Though Venus in Libra can sometimes become overly focused on a partner to the point of neglecting others in their life, Venus in Sagittarius will push back on this and insist that the two of them maintain more independence from each other.

Second Best Match: Venus in Libra with partner’s Venus in air signs

The three air signs, all of which share an emphasis on ideas and the intellect, are Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius.

Two Venus in Libra people together would be very idealistic. It could work as long as they had the same idea of what a perfect world should look like. They would also be concerned with presenting a jointly harmonious appearance to the world.

This could be fine as long as the focus on appearance was not used to cover up or distract from serious problems.

Venus in Aquarius crosses the line from idealistic into dogmatic, more forceful than Venus in Libra in pushing others to share their ideals. Venus in Libra, tired of dreaming alone, is drawn to Venus in Aquarius out of jealousy of that particular ability.

Of course, it would be very important for these two to have compatible ideals.

Going in the other direction, Venus in Gemini could influence Venus in Libra to lighten up. Venus in Libra can become disappointed if the world doesn’t live up to some lofty ideal, but Venus in Gemini sees good in the little things.

Third Best Match: Venus in Libra with partner Venus in other cardinal signs

All four of the cardinal signs mark the beginning of seasons. Fire sign Aries begins to spring, water sign Cancer begins summer, air sign Libra begins to fall, and earth sign Capricorn begins winter. Venus in any of these signs tends to express its element intensely.

Venus in Aries is the opposite of Venus in Libra, and Venus in Aries has a direct approach that is the opposite of Venus in Libra’s subtlety. Venus in Libra might not like getting called out for trying to hide behind hints, but Venus in Libra probably needs it.

Venus in Libra is scared of Venus in Cancer’s sensitivity and tries to tiptoe around it. This fear only makes the sensitivity worse, and Venus in Cancer, whose sensitivity can cross the line into intuition, is more aware of Venus in Libra’s unspoken resentment than Venus in Libra thinks.

Venus in Libra also finds Venus in Cancer clingy, and this just makes Venus in Cancer cling all the harder.

Venus in Capricorn is focused on structure and can be very traditional. Venus in Capricorn can be very helpful in bringing Venus in Libra’s ideas into physical form but might wonder why Venus in Libra didn’t take care of that on their own; at worst, Venus in Capricorn can see Venus in Libra as lazy. 

All the Rest

The signs that have not been covered yet are Taurus, Virgo, Scorpio, and Pisces. Taurus and Virgo are earth signs, and Scorpio and Pisces are water signs. 

Two of these, Taurus and Pisces, are actually signs where Venus is strong. Taurus is the other sign besides Libra that Venus rules, and Venus is exalted in Pisces.

Even though Taurus and Pisces share neither element nor mode with Libra, Venus in Taurus or Venus in Pisces might not be that bad with Venus in Libra because they all have in common that Venus is happy in that sign.

Strong personalities coming together, of course, can sometimes clash. Venus in Taurus is heavy on sensual and material pleasure and therefore might not understand Venus in Libra not being as invested in the physical world.

Venus in Libra is more idealistic, and some of those lofty ideals go right over Venus in Taurus’s head. Venus in Pisces is also idealistic, but the emotional excesses of Venus in Pisces might overwhelm Venus in Libra.

The opposites of Taurus and Pisces are Scorpio, a sign where Venus is in detriment, and Virgo, a sign where Venus is in fall. Venus in Virgo and Venus in Scorpio is actually very compatible with each other: not only are their elements compatible, but they both focus on conserving resources and working hard.

Both would be miserable with Venus in Libra – and Venus in Libra with them — because Venus in Libra just doesn’t share their scarcity mindset and pessimistic view of the world.

Venus in Libra can get depressed when the world doesn’t meet expectations, but those expectations come from Venus in Libra being an optimist at heart.

I love my Asakuki Diffuser, I have this going in my living room or my office with either peppermint or lavender. The diffuser holds more water than other diffusers and lasts longer. It also has a timer so that it doesn’t run dry. The Diffuser adds a nice gentle scent to my home.

I also love having my White Sound Machine and my Asakuki Diffuser running in my living room. Sometimes I will choose the sound of rain or the ocean or even thunder. It depends on my mood.

I’ll fill the diffuser with lavender or peppermint. With the thunder in the background and the smell of peppermint, it’s like being whisked away to a faraway place!

I really love the Himalayan salt Lamp and my Crystal Tree of Life. I have them in my office and they create a “zen” feel for me while I’m working.
