Whether you get down with astrology or not, life lessons from a Libra will always come in handy.

Flighty, flirty, fake even. Though you try to remain neutral you’ve been stung by one or two of these labels. A deeper look shows that you just want fairness. Sometimes that means you give too much of it away. Or you strain too hard to steer through dead center. Or you’re terrified to give a lot in one place. I smile when watching you try to pick a lane. (It’s hard for me too, I get it.) Even the way you flail when you’ve hurt someone by being accidentally inconsiderate is almost tender. We can’t stay mad at you. As if soo cliche, since your symbol is the scales, you want balance. You want things to be smoothed over. Everyone’s happy. Aesthetically pleasing. You’re ready with the bow on top. I can pick y’all out of a crowd the easiest because anyone with prominent Libra placements will be indisputably beautiful in some kind of way. I’m jealous of your ability to successfully wear white and I acknowledge all the care that goes into that on the back end. Though you pull it off like royalty, y’all aren’t only concerned with superficial beauty. Even the most hardened Libras are unable to hide how important love is to them. There’s an unmatched sweetness to that which embodies some things that I feel like I lack. You make me want to comb my hair, watch my mouth, and tell someone I love them. So for that, I’m thankful.
