Help me understand this. Libra is represented by scales in balance and if rising is the exact opposite of the natural house rulerships. So wouldn't every planet take on quality of it's opposite? For instance I have venus in pisces which falls in my 6th house which gives it qualities of virgo. My saturn in in capricorn but libra rising puts it in my 4th house which gives it qualities of cancer. This goes on for pretty much all the planets.
So now here's what I'd really like to know. What happens in a synastry if one of the people has a Libra rising. If my 9th house mars is opposite his venus in sagitarrius, it seems like it would have aspects of both an opposition and a conjunction. My 6th house venus in opposition to his mars in virgo might work as both an opposition and a conjunction.

What do you think?

Ive been thinking about how libra AC plays out in synastry to lately, and ive decided libra is the worst ascendant!!
Im also libra AC, so i can say that!

As for your question...unfortunately, the house have as much pull as the planets to affect the synastry so much that it could act like a conjunction, but it might soften the affects of the opposition! I wish it did tho!

I dated a guy with an exact aries AC opposition to my libra AC....thats just too much opposition energy for my taste!


Heres why i feel that way...just my opinion!


------The "Your Lucky" Ascendants-------
Leo and Saggy trine to the house ruler
Aqua and Gemini sextile to the house ruler
Taurus and Pisces semi-sextile the house ruler
-------The "This Bites" Ascendants---------
Virgo and Scorpio inconjunct the house ruler
Cap and Cancer sqaure the house ruler
Libra opposed the house ruler
Aries conjunct the house ruler

Example....
Cap or Cancer Ascendant is square the 1st house ruler Aries
2nd house Aqua or Leo is square 2nd house ruler Taurus
3rd house Pisces or Virgo is square 3rd house ruler Gemini

Libra Ascendant is opposed 1st house ruler Aries
2nd house Scorp is opposed 2nd house ruler Taurus
3rd house Saggy is opposed 3rd house ruler Gemini

Aries Ascendant conjuncts 1st house ruler Aries
2nd house Taurus conjunct 2nd house ruler Taurus
3rd house Gemini conjunct 3rd house ruler Gemini

Scorpio or Virgo inconjunct 1st house ruler Aries
2nd house Saggy or Libra inconjunct 2nd house ruler Taurus
3rd house Cap or Scorp inconjunct 3rd house ruler Gemini

The hardest thing is having an Ascendant that has one of these aspects to all the house rulers....it means you have to live with feeling this energy everytime you exert yourself, you exert your planets energy into the way of the house it lands, which means your energy is heading into the direction of a sign that it aspects harshly and when you personally feel the 2 energies together you will feel the tug of war of these aspects fighting each other!
I believe we are meant to learn about this energy, learn to work with it, understand it and use what we learn about cooperation, over exertion of power or control in our interpersonal relationships with others!


How the Ascendant Signs are like the aspects they create with the House Rulers of Astrology's Houses.....

Aries- "The Ram"
Very forceful, always pushing ahead, assertive and can be overbearing.....lots of force and power sometimes, without thinking because actions are taken before thought!
The conjunction also gives this same affect!
It creates impulsive action, sometimes overwhelmingly so, its positive in the way that it forces you face things and gives such a huge boost by combing 2 energies into 1!
You cannot miss a conjunction just as Aries will not allow you to miss them! the conjucntion is #1 in aspects, the most forcefully felt.....just as Aries is, for good or bad! The way it affects you depends on other things, aspects and what your looking for!

Libra-"The Scales"
Always balancing, Yin and Yang, always needing another energy in order to feel whole and complete, cannot be its best without a compliment. Needs to have another focus, this is how it comes to know itself!
The opposition aspects also relies on another source to feel whole, its a balancing act to try to find the positive and when its out of sync, it doesn't function properly because its out of balance!

Cancer and Capricorn- "The Parents"
Mommy and Daddy, are always trying to control, teach and prevent the children from making mistakes.....the energy from Dad is direct forceful "NO", the energy from Mom is more discreet, a bit manipulative as she tries to guide you in the way she sees as best....even if you dont agree, neither of them are going to easily give into you but instead force you to learn a new way that makes them happy...they are force to be worked against if you disagree with them. But in the end you grow up through their oppositions to your every childish whim!
The is the same process you go through with the square aspect!

Scorpio and Virgo- "The Loyalist"
These guys will stand by your side, just to pick you apart and call it loving you...
They will be keeping their eyes on you and notice all you do...you think the attention is nice, until they start correcting your ways, as a sweet gesture of their love!

The inconjunct is much like this also, its like an opposition with a touch of the square mixed in...
Inconjunct is a bond though, but not necessarily one you'll love, it will be the aspect that loves you but all the aspect seems to do is tell how your not quite as great as you could be...all they really want is to see your true potential, so they show you how your not quite living up to that potential!
Its just a touch of the parent aspect mixed with a lot of the i love you, let me complete you!
Its like a touch of a square(restriction of the parent saturn) mixed with the desire to balance and support the other.

So with these ascendants we constantly have to combat these aspects in us, we would be internally treating ourselves with the same energy ass these aspects every time we exert our energy on the things involved with the house they fall in....this creates a lot of friction inside us...confusion, insecurity, self doubt and potentially anger.
We have an extra issue with these ascendants, balancing our every personal planet with an energy that is in hard aspect to us!

Even if your planets falls in houses before or after...like my libra Ascendant gives me an opposition to my houses....but i thought i had gotten out of it some because my saggy sun and merc falls before my 3rd house, it falls in my 2nd house....but thats still saggy planets to a taurus ruled house, thats an inconjunct aspect! Ugh....
So, im still screwed! LOL

But all other Ascendants wouldnt have this issue, so if you have anyone of these "This Bites" Ascendants other than Libra....If your planet falls before the intended house, is a good thing for you, the aspect is much easier!!!!

So, its settled....LIBRA is officially the WORST ASCENDANT EVER!!!

Thanks for your posts. From one Libra ASC to another, now that you've been so down on this rising sign, I NEED to take the opposite position to restore balance!

I often feel like I don't need/want someone else because I'm COMPLETE in and of myself. I'm on a teeter-totter and I may have run back and forth between two extremes more in the past, but now it's like I'm much more centered. It allows me to see two opposing sides and bring them both together. Cheer up, Gabby! Libra rising isn't THAT bad!! How does your sun aspect your ASC?

I dont mind being Libra rising!!
Actually i like it because even though it does give some extra work because its not easy always walking a tight rope, the thing is we learn a lot from that perspective!

I tend to agree with you about not needing others, but thats only when youve matured some. Once we grow past the need for another to help us keep balance, we become very strong within ourselves.

I appreciate that ive been forced to outgrow needing others in order to feel whole!

My Ascendant aspects...
sextile my Sun by 2 degrees
conjunct pluto by 3 degrees
conjunct venus by 10-11 degrees...almost conjunct
opposed jupiter by 7 degrees
sextile saturn by 4 degrees
sextile merc by 3 degrees
sextile neptune by 3 degrees
semi-sextile moon 0 degree

I KNOW it's soooo confusing!!! I have Libra rising all the signs are on the opposite cusps, every single one of them!!! Have to admit I have an easier time thinking when Mercury is in Pisces like now, probably because it's in house 6 in the chart, where it is dignified because it's Virgo's house. Sometimes, Mercury can get murky. It rules my sun sign (Virgo) and is in natal house 12 where it conjuncts ascendant.

One thing I do not like is having Aries on cusp 7. What is your experience with this descendant? I find it makes me a loner and the 12 house planets detaches me from life, somewhat.

Having Pisces Venus (where it is exalted) can make up for the 6th house placement. I find this is true when Mercury transits Pisces because of house 6.

I also have Pisces Venus. Where's your Mars since it rules your 7th? My Mars retrograde in Cancer in the 9th and SQUARES my Pisces Venus, which means having Aries on the DES really sucks! Seems like I'm attracted to very "9th house" types - Strong Jupiter/Saggy/Spiritual guys. Don't see too much of the Cancer influence, maybe because of the retrograde?

Hi Kitty, In medical astrology the opposite sign is significant. For instance most Virgo's have foot problems (Pisces) at some point in their life and often limp.

Aquarians should take good care of their hearts.

Taurus people take care of you private parts.

I haven't done medical astrology in years but I had this gigantic book on it and it was the most interesting science. I wish I remembered more.

Oh and I would love to have Libra rising... they are usually dainty, petite and glamorous. My granddaughter is a Libra sun and is just the tiniest most beautiful child.

Mine is in the opposite house, 3rd, and it is in the sign Sagittarius. It squares Pluto and is barely aspected. There is a very loose square to the sun I don't like to count because it's something like, 9 or 10 degrees. The square to Pluto is closer.

Cancer is on my midheaven. Is it on yours, or is it Leo?


I just notice with my chart, this Mars/Aries combination brings a lot of strange energy into my life through others. It's very primal energy and it can be a bit destructive.

Yes, I have a Cancer midheaven, too, and I have moon in Leo in the 10th.

Pluto squaring Mars with Mars as the ruler of your 7th must REALLY hurt since it's the house of open enemies as well as marriage and other partnerships!

I think the hardest thing about Libra rising is that every exalted planet by sign is in fall by house and every ruler by house is in detriment by sign. But I guess missing out on the goodies is the price we pay for having the bad stuff modified.

In synastry, do you feel the squares more than the oppositions with this rising? What's your personal experience with this?

Mars is in house 3 square Pluto in 12 in my chart, too. That's hidden and open enemies! Helps to have a sense of humor about it, though! I like to laugh at all the stuff in my chart because there's so much that's too unbelievable! I wonder how I could have managed to enter the world at that moment? Timed it perfectly!

Right now transiting Mars has just crossed the descending degree and there's already some thing going on in life with other people that were not happening, say, a few days ago. Don't want to get too specific.

Also, there was a conjunction between Mars and Uranus in Aries a few days ago. My descendant is at 9 Aries. The Pisces planets and sun are headed into Aries where they will be in 7th house, soon, and Uranus will staynfor 7 years once it crosses 9 degrees Aries. Should be fun!


What I feel most in synastry are people with Venus in Aries. Have had some friends with that particular configuration. I am attracted to 7 degrees Aries luminaries/planets for some reason. Those are approaching the descendant from 6. I like that weakened energy. I tend to like the opposition to my ascendant.

I'm a Libra rising too and I'll agree that Libra is LITERALLY the worst rising to have because it is confusing to have your whole chart topsy turvy.

In order for Libra rising people to "restore" order in their world, they must reach over to the descendant and act Aries. Well, the point is, for chart to be lead by Libra AC, esp. one like mine that's loaded with powerful planets, I find it very UNPLEASANT to act like an Aries and I personally dislike Aries for their arrogance and overinflated egotism. The point is, either I gross myself out by acting like an Aries but at least maintain some sense of "balance" or I always go around feeling every bit of unbalanced energy around me. Either way, it's a flippin' pain in the booty.

I sense that most people on here are still very young and haven't started their 1st Saturn's Return. I'm already over my 1st Saturn's Return and I passed with flying colors... not without tears in learning about how the world works and its disappointments. At this point in my life, for a good year or 2, I stopped caring about the other gross energies around me and learned to shut it off. I reserve acting Aries only when I'm really in a hurry to do something uber important like making a deadline.

Having Libra rising is LITERALLY (as stated before) the worst set up for a chart, but at the same time, it teaches the native to learn to be more confident, stand on their own, and not be afraid of offending others which are characteristics that may come super natural to a strong willed Aries, but to us Libras, we're too worried about bringing unpleasantness to the table when in reality, we just need to learn to incorporate some backbone into our everyday. I think once a person goes through their 1st Saturn's return, they will know what's important (standing up and speaking out when necessary) vs stuff that can get sacrificed temporarily (being afraid of drawing negative attention for fear being responsible for rocking the boat).

Thanks for the heads up on the transits. My DES is at 16, almost 17, degrees so I'm not quite there yet. I agree that having a sense of humor helps! My Part of Fortune is in Aries in the 7th at 23 degrees which will make it REALLY interesting, especially since my PoF is squaring the Jupiter/Saturn conjunction in my 4th and my MC. I've never paid it any real attention until recently, but with so many planets about to run me over ... well! I actually had a dream last night about getting bullied by outer planets!!! :\

I'm WELL past my 1st Saturn return and I agree that we have to learn to "choose our battles carefully and not sweat the small stuff". The older I get, the more I've come to appreciate the hard aspects and challenges of my charts. The people I like best are also "overcomers". That which does not kill us makes us stronger!

That's what Libra Sun Nietzsche said!

Just a few days ago I got really fed driving to the post office and having to be in line in my car b/c people refused to park in spots because of this or that. I was so hot under the collar that I kept honking my horn and shouting, "Hurry the f*ck up!! We're not entering a beauty pageant for our dinged up cars on a damn Thursday afternoon at this ghetto post office! C'mon, park your busted up car cuz I don't got all day waiting on your dumb@ss! I got sh*t to do and places to be!!"

Oh man, everyone that heard me ranting was busting out laughing and the person that was responsible for the hold up was really embarrassed and was whining and making excuses for holding up the line.

After I left the post office, I drove away laughing because even though I acted like an uncooth Aries, I got my way and people didn't punish me for that kind of behavior. I get dumped on far more often when I'm my usual sweet Libra rising self.

I have this as well. Really hard sometimes. All of those flipped houses seem to blend 2 signs into one, giving you the traits of both. :| My DSC ruler is so afflicted, no wonder I don't even know any Aries guys.

With all the afflictions in my chart (most of them to the angles, nearly everything in between is positive), I do think I may have been meant to have this rising sign. I attract people who are very different from me I really need that balance. I always end up as the mediator. Sometimes it's all I have when I'm going through a rough period of my life again.

I really want to find that confident, energetic, assertive guy who will make the first move to take some of that constant pressure off me (= positive of Aries). My whole life is about endlessly adjusting to others and making things easy for them; and coaxing shy/awkward people out of their shells, being people's personal nurse and therapist (hello Cancer Midheaven!). I need that one part in my life (relationship) where someone else takes the lead. I want to feel what it's like to be able to follow someone else and trust they'll take good care of me.

I can understand where most of you Libra Risers are coming from, I am a Libra sun myself. My S.O is also a Libra rising, so yes, he does need someone who can take the driver's seat sometimes. He does need the confidence, which I understand very well cuz I'm the same. I would say that it has made things easier for us as a couple when he's a Libra ASC and I'm a Libra sun moon mars.

It just gets frustrating when we both fall into the Libra trap of being indecisive though. However, when that does happen, one of us just mans up and chooses.....maybe about an hour later...lol

Hmm. Never saw being indecisive as a Libra quality. I may weigh options first, but I usually make up my mind pretty quickly.

I like to think about all my options before making a decision. When I go to the store, I drive people crazy because I MUST look at everything ten times and read all the packages. Takes me forever to buy something. Plus, I am ultra picky and often disappointed unless it's exactly what I'm after (Virgo sun does creep in every once in a while.)

A friend with Aries Venus once told me she didn't get that because she goes to the store knowing exactly what she wants to buy before she gets there.

Haha. Libra likes taking everything into consideration, so they can make a good choice. That part drives me crazy in myself, but I know that deep down I wouldn't want it any other way. I like doing things thoroughly. So yeah, I'm here nodding along with the other replies.

When I was younger, it got to a point where I couldn't go shopping with others, because they'd start stomping their feet and pressuring me 10 minutes into things. And then I freeze up and can't decide anymore at all.

Libra does not like pressure. That's an Aries thing, haha. Libra likes leisure and relaxation and this is what I insist on in life. Sometimes, time stands still and I am so into the moment weighing everything, I am completely oblivious to the way it keeps moving forward while other people are not and they want me to hurry but I want to be slow.

The best thing about Libra ascendant is the patience to look at more than one option, thoroughly studying it and this trait runs in my family where there are many Libra ascendants.

This patience is through the Saturn connection with Libra, since it is exalted there. I have a lot of melancholy and Saturnine temperament. It's sorta like Capricorn without the ambition.

The best thing about the Libra ascendant and planets is being chilled out and laid back most the time. That's what's so great about Libra energy, calm and often very patient.
