(Yahoo Answers) Can someone explain this to me? Libra Astrology.?

“As Libras get to know someone”
Libras may show an instantaneous “liking” to you and that they trust you and all that but they will pay close attention to you for a long time before they give themselves over. They pay close attention in how you handle conflict and how happy a person you are. It is not easy to snag a Libra who will be faithful to you because most people have a lot of ugly days and nights to deal with and Libra is not interested in that if it can avoid it…

“, nasty little traits like jealousy can rear their ugly heads”
Libras can elicit jealousy because they are so likeable, sweet, and charming and many people want to connect with them because they can brighten days. Remember? Libra likes it sweet so it’s going to do its best to make your days happy and you better get with the program or else. So inevitably most people who connect with a Libra will get jealous about their connections with other people…

“and make them duck for cover.”
They will hide and hope you can’t find them if you start acting jealous because they are not generally “direct” about what they do and do not like. They don’t like rocking the boat. And unless Libra is contractually obligated to you, it’s not going to stand for “unreasonable” jealousy.

“They can’t bear the dark side of human nature”
Libras like sweet things. Candy, beautiful faces, clothing, lovely art, thoughts…

“so they run whenever a Medusa or Cyclops shows up”
They run away from anything that is dark, scary, and monstrous. If it’s found in kindergarten, it will make them happy!

“, and don’t they always?”
Yup, they usually do. In the end, always.

Libras are most compatible with their own element of Air because another Air sign is going to “get them and give mental space” and they will get along with the fire signs (also masculine) Sagittarius ruled by Jupiter because they are optimistic, fair, freedom-oriented, and expansive (amongst other reasons) and Leo ruled by Sun because they are warm, friendly, artistic, joyful, and child-like (amongst other reasons).

I didn’t mention Aries because Aries is the opposite sign of Libra. They have the same goals but go at things differently. Some Aries and Libras can get along if they like it “hot” and “clever”.

Keep in mind, this is Sun Sign astrology and the whole chart especially the Moon and Ascendant will greatly affect how a Libra reacts to things… So avoid generalizing and believing ALL Libras are like this… however, many are…
