Natal Moon in Libra: A Heart Drawn to Beauty and Harmony

Gracefulness, peacefulness and fairness these natives possess. And the idea of enjoying the comfort of stable, happy relationship is incredibly heart warming to them. In the right relationship, these natives enjoy a greater depth of human connectivity and generally have a wonderful time. 

Upbringing

Being born under a Libra Moon is usually a good indicator of a happy, wholesome childhood. Libra is ruled by Venus, the planet of serenity, beauty, art, and romance. While their mother (or principal caregiver) was usually very busy and may have occasionally forgotten to wash their clothes or do the weekly grocery shop, she would not have forgotten to be affectionate, fair, and supportive towards her child.

Their mother was very likely effortlessly stylish and graceful and enjoyed looking good and behaving in a way that consistently conveyed civility and self-respect. Those who knew her admired her character and held her in high esteem. She may have even been a pillar of the community type of person. Overall, she was a fair and peaceful individual who could usually sympathize with the views of others. This helped her to regularly play the role of peacemaker effectively, especially within her own family. 

She could have been quite indecisive, though, which occasionally lead to disagreements with others, including her child — despite their own indecisiveness! As annoying as it may have been, she was simply able to understand situations from different perspectives and always worked to arrive at fair conclusions for all concerned. 

The home was probably well looked after, stylish and perhaps even quite opulent. There were plenty of books on all sorts of topics, games and toys around and plenty of mentally stimulating activities and conversations to engage in. The house also probably welcomed a whole host of interesting, intellectual guests which would have been quite entertaining for her. 

She would have insisted on a proper education and would have enjoyed teaching her child whatever she thought was useful herself. For example, at the dining table, she might have discussed politics, art or science in front of her child to help them learn.

They could have been a little spoiled with lavish parties and overindulged on good food and fun, frequent trips but they also would have been told to do their homework and good grades. There would have been an especially strong focus on the development of their communication and reasoning skills. Their mother thought it was critical for their child to become articulate, knowledgeable and fair minded.

Home Environment

The home is especially important to Libran types because they desire to live well and take great pride in making their homes as comfortable and stylish as they can imagine and afford. Plush surroundings with luxurious items dotted in each room should be expected. Even the bathroom is likely be squeaky clean, smell delicious and be stocked with some carefully selected toiletries and thick, gorgeous towels. This is the sort of home that might have lush Hermès blankets casually strewn around, Molton Brown shower supplies and the latest Gucci homewares gracing its chic coffee tables and tidy shelves.

If they can’t afford to have expensive, luxurious furnishings and decor, their home will still have an air of comfort and style about it. They have wonderfully refined taste so expect plenty of rich colors that work impeccably well together or neutrals that are soothing yet still help to convey an atmosphere of effortless opulence and glamour. Even if they aren’t remotely drawn to luxury brands, they instinctively know how to create an aesthetically pleasing and tranquil space that can be enjoyed by the whole family. 

And the more stylish their home is, the more comfortable they’ll feel with entertaining. They’re highly sociable and love having guests round for dinner, parties, barbecues etc. Nothing pleases them more than having a bustling home and yard of laughter, music, animated conversation and great food. Bear in mind, however, that these people have refined hearts. They won’t take kindly to guests being vulgar, negative or otherwise unpleasant. They need their home; their sanctuary, to be harmonious even when others are in it.

Work Style

Despite intermittent periods of substantial inactivity when they set their mind on something, they accomplish it with indomitable will. This may surprise people because they usually seem pretty indifferent and laid-back with a laissez-faire attitude towards life. Libran types can be grossly underestimated in this regard because, make no mistake, they are perfectly capable, and possess the intellect required, to accomplish virtually anything that takes their fancy.

Libra is particularly heavily associated with justice and law. The standard image for Libra is the scales of justice. Many Libran types are blessed with an inborn interest in restoring balance as they see fit which makes them excellent lawyers, mediators and judges. They’re naturally adept to seeing a situation or issue from different points of view and then, after much inner deliberation, decide how to proceed.

Possessing Venusian energy, they’re generally drawn to anything beautiful and graceful; art, design, music, poetry and so on. Luxury trades often appeal to lunar Librans. Stylish, well-made clothing, homewares and jewellery are particularly attractive and they could even be drawn to make a living by designing and/or selling such goods. If they were to open their own business, they may do especially well in an art based enterprise, like jewellery design. Having classy taste, they’d always create the most elegant, in vogue pieces.

If running a business with staff, they would go out of their way to make sure the staff are happy. They know that this isn’t only good for their self esteem and wellbeing but great for increasing their business’s productivity. Everything must be in proper balance with them and having a peaceful workplace is important for their wellbeing too. They would hate even one of their staff disliking them or being mad at them. That could rather easily disrupt their inner equilibrium.

Whatever they may do for a living, being around others is absolutely essential. Spending any significant amount of time alone bores them to tears. They can’t stand to work alone behind closed doors and unable to constantly weigh things up with others and engage in lively, frequent discussion or simply mundane chit-chat! They need the presence of people in their day job possibly just as as much as they need air to breathe. Working with their partner may be a good solution although they would probably still need others around alongside them, too.

Interests

While it would be fair to say that most people would loathe taking on the responsibility of peacekeeper among friends or colleagues, these natives enjoy the mental challenge it offers. The happiness that comes with knowing that they brought peace to awkward situations is also very rewarding. It’s somewhat of a pastime because it comes so effortlessly. In fact, they might find it rather baffling why others seem so helpless at it.

Studying the latest fashion trends is also a beloved pastime. The creative endeavours undertaken by others absolutely fascinates them. They may enjoy visiting fashion shows and flipping through glossy fashion magazines and so on. Fashion shopping is positively therapeutic for them and they intuitively know what works really well for their figure, skin tone and age. They like being complimented on their styling skills too! Styling friends could be something they also find enjoyable.

Being highly intellectual, reading also appeals to these natives. They’re curious and learn quickly so they appreciate all kinds of books, blogs and magazines. They find the printed word delightful and even somewhat magical.

Libra is ruled by Venus and this planet, along with love and peace, rules beauty and art. Their emotional nature is therefore deeply creative and if they don’t know it already, they would make a talented classical musician or artist capable of producing marvellous, tasteful work.

General Characteristics

The Moon and Venus (the ruling planet of Libra) are both represented in astrology as female energies, even though Libra is considered a masculine sign. This influences its natives, especially the females, to be ultra-feminine; gentle, graceful, collected, peaceful and sympathetic. 

Much effort is therefore made with their appearance and some might even call them vain. Often, they enjoy spending a great deal of time trying out new cosmetics, beauty products, clothing and accessories. They just love looking (and smelling!) good. As with most people, it makes them feel good, increases their self confidence and happiness and they appreciate the praise that accompanies it. As they grow older, they may embrace their need for an aesthetic lifestyle but also seek to deepen their spirituality.

These natives are extremely sociable and can’t bear to go for too long without the company of their beloved partner, friends or family. They simply have to talk and interact with others, even if it’s just a good neighbour, colleague or client to avoid the dreaded scourge of boredom setting in and feeling like their life is uneventful. An active life is most enjoyable for them and they know how to fill their schedule and keep nice and busy and productive. They know how to live; how to have a good time, how to spend, how to holiday, how to party and so on. If there were a qualification for enjoying life, they would very likely graduate with flying colors.

As they are able to see things from all sorts of different angles, they’re sometimes hesitant to settle on just one outcome. This is also what makes them a natural talented peacekeeper. They have the ability to understand many unique perspectives and assess each one properly before arriving at a fair conclusion for all concerned. They’re usually the sort of friend people go to when an argument has cropped up. But remember that they also have their own grievances about others and will absolutely voice them if necessary! 

Being blessed with a pleasant, even-tempered, charming and understanding disposition makes them approachable and it allows them to build a large circle of friends and acquaintances. They’re never short of an evening event to go to, clients to see, colleagues to lunch with, or friends to spend fun times with.

Understandably, they are concerned with what others think of them. Like Leo, they like to be liked and compliments won’t go unappreciated either. They pay a particularly great amount of attention to what people think of their physical appearance, demeanour, and intellect. It bothers them when someone thinks poorly of them in any way, and they might spend quite some time thinking about why they do and what they can do to redress the matter. 

Their emotions are usually controlled. Intense displays of emotion are just a tad unseemly to them but they do also understand that everyone is different. And perhaps occasionally, they may benefit from someone or something upsetting their inner equilibrium to push them into experiencing new situations and emotions and learning from them. 

Whether they know it or not, they harbour natural artistic and/or musical talent. If not an artist or musician, there’s no doubt that will deeply enjoy listening to good music and looking at beautiful art work.

Similarly to Virgo, they are almost fanatical about cleanliness, organization and neatness. I think that “cleanliness is next to godliness” isn’t far off from their personal motto! Having a clean and tidy home, work space, car etc helps them to think more clearly too.

Friendship

Lunar Librans need friends as much as they need a partner. No matter their relationship status, friends will always be highly valued and they make sure to keep up with them and grow their relationships with them. Their indecisiveness and neutrality can be a bit irritating at times, though. Rarely do they make quick and firm decisions and when they do, they might still go back on them. It might be better to leave their friends to sort out gatherings when they feel particularly hesitant about planning an event!

Possibly one of the funnest friends one could ever have, these natives know exactly how to relax and enjoy themselves; and show their friends how to too! Virgo and Capricorn types who find it a real challenge to let go could really benefit from having a lunar Libra in their social circle! They are well connected and know of just the right bars, restaurants, and nightclubs to visit on a night out. They might be a little expensive but you’ll all be in for a glamorous and fabulous evening. And knowing them, they’ll be happy to pay because this lunar placement can also be fabulously generous.

As we all do, she might critique her friends from time to time but rarely in person. They are natural givers and bend over backwards to help friends but know that they do expect the same in return — along with plenty of compliments. In this way, this sign is similar to Leo. They would do well to bear in mind that people express their appreciation in different ways and perhaps less overtly if they are introverted. 

Dating and Relationships

Please also remember to look at the Descendant, Venus and Mars placements for much more information.

The simple truth about lunar Librans is that they need to be in harmonious relationships in order to feel whole and balanced. Otherwise, they may forever be in search of someone to complete them and run the heartbreaking risk of life passing them by in an unfulfilled state. Luckily for them, our species tends to enjoy coupling up and actively encourages it. Many people find pleasant relationships to be in so there’s no good reason why they shouldn’t find one for themselves!

In the event of a relationship coming to a close, while they will undoubtedly be unhappy, they’ll also almost magically find themselves a brand new beau fairly quickly. Sometimes in record time! Their friends might wonder how they do it but they thoroughly dislike doing things alone and is the sort of person who truly thrives with the right partner by their side. 

And the right partner is someone who is educated, refined, intelligent, action oriented, a stellar communicator and preferably, exceptionally charming and good looking. They are someone with whom they can bounce their many ideas off of and debate all manner of things with. It’s also important that their partner is physically clean, well groomed and well dressed more often than not.

When enjoying a mutually fulfilling marriage (or longterm relationship), they are possibly the ideal partner. Libra, being ruled by Venus, the planet of love, beauty and harmony (as I’ve mentioned earlier) influences those who possess its energy to act gracefully, and to be tolerant and kind. They’re oftentimes very cognisant of their partner’s needs and take good care of them. They may alternate between laziness and action but for the most part, they put in the effort needed to make their relationship a happy and long-lasting one.

Argue with them, however, and unless they’re particularly light-hearted, you’ll most certainly feel their icy wrath and sharp words. As kind and diplomatic as they usually are, they won’t tolerate any unfair comments or behavior. Underneath it all, they’re actually very no-nonsense and can use their excellent communication skills to perfectly articulate their thoughts. When really mad, they can come across as rather authoritarian.

Parenting

They absolutely love playing with their children and they often indulge them with good food, candy, parties, trips and gifts. They just love seeing their faces light up with joy when they get something they want! They can be just a tad hands-off with their children from time to time because they do enjoy having their own time to relax and party too. They’re also good at allowing their kids to have some degree of freedom so they can learn how to take care of themselves which should help to prepare them for adulthood. 

Tolerance, fairness, tact, and consideration must be instilled in their children. They are very well aware of the fact that people posses different opinions and that all of them count to some degree. They feel it would wise and fair of their children to always take the views of others into consideration and not just dismiss them or push against them. This should also help them to get further in life by allowing them to make and keep more friends and acquaintances. It would also reflect better on them as a parent if they grew up to become decent adults.

Moon in Libra in the Houses

The house the Moon was in at the time of birth provides a good indicator of where someone invests much of their emotional energy.
