Libra Ascendants out there, has there been a point in your life where you've just completely given up or abandoned the idea of trying to please others and seek approval, only to become the complete opposite? Has there been a point where you've stopped trying to keep relationships and have started being what one could be called a "***** " to everyone you didn't like/cared for?I keep seeing this with my Libra Ascendant friends. One is a Taurus and one is a Scorpio, and they both have 12th house Libra Moons. They both just don't give a crap when it comes to ******* off others and don't try to please people, and they are extremely quick to fire off at others who get on their nerves, like an Aries, but still are loyal to their friends. The Taurus has a first house Retrograde Scorpio Mars and the other has a tenth house Leo Mars conjunct her 11th house cusp. Do these traits align with other Libra Ascendants? ------------------ Scorpio Ascendant Aquarius Sun in 4th Gemini Moon in 8th Check out my blog ya'll: www.electrodgxtalks.wordpress.com IP: Logged |

Yea... sort of. I can see myself doing that all the time but with less intensity than your taurean/scorpio friends.for those who I am close to and see on a regular basis, I allow myself to be who I am even if I fall into the trap of trying to please them. but for those people this energy would be wasted, I avoid their company as much as possible. Because I can't help myself. The one thing I can control is whether or not I choose to engage with their presence. As long as I don't see them or I go along with my intended direction in life, my happiness is maintained and I can still be my libra asc self. But I don't actually say bugger off to these other folks. It's probably the double aquarian sun/moon in me. and my venus/mars in pisces. I do my best to stay indifferent. IP: Logged |

Yes, this is because libra rising has Aries DscThe Dsc is how you are in relationships with others. Or your personality in a partnership. IP: Logged |

Good read, totally makes sense. I have no libra in my chart but everyone has to care what others think a little if we don't want to get arrested or get fired. LolMy friends don't treat me like I have to impress them so that is nice, and if a friend seems like they are too needy, does expect me to do something ridiculous...losing them is no loss to me. My boyfriend is a triple Virgo, so he tries to put expectations on me...and thats when I tell it like it is 97% of the time. The department I feel like I have to impress people the most is work and school related, and that can take a toll. In that department you really can't tell people off, and have to be as tactful as possible. As an Aries with a Scorpio moon there have been people in my class that gave me urges to punch them in the face. It's nice when I make friends and we can talk about someone who is an a$$ together. Having to impress people for school and work takes an emotional toll on me for sure. I'll often feel like "can I please do something for that doesn't involve other people validating my self worth now???" I'm also a Gemini rising! IP: Logged |

I am Libra rising and honestly, I would kill to get to this point. Sometimes I do let my guard down and go off in an "eff what they think" kind of fashion, but then I just feel badly after anyway for ruffling feathers and I just hide til conflict passes. I should be letting go of the need to please a LOT of people in my life. But I can't seem to, even the people I am certainly not pleasing right now that are drowning me in shame. I fire off mostly at people I adore or complete strangers...everyone in between gets Libra me that could never rock any boat to save her life I am Capricorn sun, Mars is 8th house Taurus.

YES! Trust me, the older you get, the more and more you stop giving a **** of pleasing everyone. I'm only please my girl, myself, and my loved ones IP: Logged |

This is the same for me. Except usually when I go without makeup and nice hair I feel like complete trash in public. It's like a chronic battle inside my head to look good, and to please everyone, even though I know that's not always possible. I also find that I'm constantly trying to connect with people, even when I'm not purposefully trying to do so. I'm also a Cap Sun 3rd house, and a Cap Mars 4th house. ------------------ "Do not let the behavior of others destroy your inner peace." -Dalai Lama IP: Logged |

Thanks for all your responses! It really helps I just thought it was interesting because of how Libra is put up as the people-pleasing sign that wants everything to go right. The Asc-Dsc thing was something I thought about, but they act like this to EVERYONE, including strangers, and they're not like this just in relationships. I can easily pick out the Libra Ascendant traits that they have but this that has been happening has been strange. It's interesting because one of them is only 17 and the other is 21. One of them (Taurus Sun) used to get angry with people and want nothing to do with them, only to get back together later. Now though, it seems that she has completely abandoned doing even that. ------------------ Scorpio Ascendant Aquarius Sun in 4th Gemini Moon in 8th Check out my blog ya'll: www.electrodgxtalks.wordpress.com IP: Logged |

Don't forget that Libra's symbol is the scales. It can tip to either side.IP: Logged |
