Libra Aries compatibility

The good news with Libra Aries relationships is that there’s going to be a lot of sexual chemistry between you. The bad news is that your preferred styles may need constant compromise to meet both your needs in other areas.

You’re going to have a lot of chemistry with your Aries partner. In many ways she’s your opposite, and that can lead to many good or bad things, depending on how you look at it, and how much each partner is willing to compromise. There will be an above average level of friction, but on the flip side it won’t be boring.

Your partner is a much more action orientated person than you are, but lacks your negotiation, patience and planning/analytical skills. This can make for an excellent team, or a total lack of common ground.

In many ways your Aries will need to compromise more than you will to make this work, and frankly compromise isn’t a strong point for them typically. This is partly what creates the great sexual chemistry between you. While you’ll admire their courage, tenacity and initiative, just how much you appreciate it will determine whether you find your partner smothering or exciting. For good or bad, this isn’t a person who’s afraid of taking risks.

Libra Aries Sex

The good news is that this wont be boring! This partner has an equal chance of totally offending you, or fulfilling your every fantasy. Aries aren’t known for being subtle, timid, or easily offended. You can be as assertive and aggressive as you like, and your partner probably won’t bat an eyelid, or, you can let them do the chasing and they wont mind. Aries are also notoriously competitive, and you have a major advantage intellectually – use your sense of humor to make fun of your partner and the sparks will nearly always fly. This is a combination where you’re very unlikely to offend, so let loose!

Communication

This area will likely frustrate you, as your Aries just doesn’t care much for social graces or reaching intellectual compromise, and worse will often go out of their way to disagree simply to enjoy the conflict or competition which may result.

Depending on how highly you prize the sexual side of your relationship this can be a very good thing, or a very bad one. Pick your battles carefully, as many will be artificial or illusionary. Let your Aries win the small ones, or if you don’t mind playing dirty just start undressing to regain the advantage. Note though, don’t undress your partner. Undress yourself and leave the room silently. It doesn’t matter if you just wrecked their car, any argument will soon be forgotten. If you can learn to communicate with actions rather than words it will pay dividends, no matter how unintuitive you will initially find it. Ditto, if you can master the art of making things appear to be their idea Aries will always be a very happy and willing participant.

Marriage

To be blunt this will likely interest you more than it does your partner. Being tied down scares Aries, and to sidestep this you’ll almost certainly need to make them think it was their idea. Similar to the suggested seduction technique (link is at bottom of this page) if you want to play really dirty then hint that you don’t want to marry them. Imply they aren't good enough for you. Once Aries see's themself as the cat and you as the mouse they wont be able to resist giving chase.

Long term

The main risk in the long term is that your Aries lover will either smother you, or get bored with you, and do something spontaneous or reckless possibly just for the excitement of creating some chaos. Your main weapon to avoid this is to be as unpredictable as possible, keep your partner on their toes, and remember if you’re outside of your comfort zone to switch to actions, and not words..

So is this article conclusive?

No! This article is based only on sun sign interaction. In order to provide a lot of people with information it's a convenient and fast way to generalize, but it's far from conclusive at this broad level.

To get a complete picture we need to take all the other planets and their interactions into account. If you would like more information for your unique relationship please see the astrology compatibility reports page.

Other resources

Often the best way to establish for yourself how compatible you are is to ask your partner questions. Sounds obvious and easy, but in practice it can be awkward.

Often the hardest questions to ask are the most important - for example, what are their views and expectations for raising children? sharing housework? saving money? career goals? etc.

One subtle and fun way to approach this is by working through a couples question book together - that way it's not really you asking, and delicate subjects can be covered easily. The best book for this I've found is Michael Webb's 1000 Questions For Couples

For reviews of this and other relationship ebooks on subjects ranging from improving your sex life to getting an ex back please see the relationship ebook reviews page.

A third method of further research is to share experiences with other couples of this same sign combination - you may be amazed how consistent they often are. Please see the links below for visitor experiences and questions.

In any relationship there are also very significant external factors. One of these is how well you understand yourself, your partner and your partnership - the more you do, the easier it is to make the relationship more exciting, fulfilling and satisfying for both of you, regardless of your starting position. The articles on how to Make him fall in love with you and Make her fall in love with you have information on how you can use astrology to revitalize a relationship.

The main risk here is that your partner may be too.. how can we say it.. masculine.. for your taste. Subtly and patience aren’t her thing, so you may want to make sure she’s what you want, before she has you pinned against a wall.

Libra Aries business and family relationships

Aries Libra relationships can be rough. In many ways you're the opposite of each other, and are likely to frustrate each other without really trying.

The good news is that your skills and talents can compliment each other perfectly, if you can find common ground to communicate on, and you do have some common ground. You both tend to be optimists and initiators, though your styles are very different. Libra prefers a more intellectual approach to problems, while Aries prefers to 'just get on with it'. Due to this Aries will probably consider libra to be lazy or boring, while lacking in both initiative and a sense of adventure. Meanwhile, Libra prefers harmony and negotiation to action or risk taking, and will consider Aries to be intense, demanding and often tactless or rude; basically a dictator.

Part of the problem with Libra Aries relationships is that you both want to lead, and can both be very bossy. Libra more so in a subtle way. Because Libra values harmony they will defer to Aries, and become annoyed unless handled very carefully, politely and respectfully. If handled well however Aries will find them to be a valuable asset, performing both the 'tedious' planning and micromanaging of projects, and bringing endless patience for negotiation - all of which Aries is naturally weak with. When it comes to problems and obstacles, Aries is a bulldozer and Libra is a politician - so use each otheraccordingly. If you can find a way to work together it can make a great team, as you each compensate for the others weakness.
