Any other Libras feel like people ALWAYS need to one up you? Or maybe they don’t need to. They just do it all of the time because they’re more aggressive or rude or troublesome?

If I try to be aggressive it’s not aggressive enough. I just can’t be a jerk and express my rude sign. It’s like even when I’m being a complete ******* I’m still the nicest guy in the room. LOL

Im so pleasant and have this wonderful Libra energy, tropical and I have a terrible time of sticking up for myself. I always got to put on my best self. And it sucks because people get away with a lot of things that I just give In to because I would be the problem if I don’t give in.

Even when I’m powerful or have a better argument, I suppress it because I don’t want to start trouble or put myself in a awkward position. I fight peacefully...

Is it really Libra bashing if she is a Libra and brought it up herself? Also, you posted your comment several times on accident.

When you lack the right amount of aggression, you get the short end of the stick quite often. I used to look at my Mercury and Mars in Aries and ask, "How?"

Long story short, those placements make sense to me now, but I used to be similar to Libra in that I would just stay quiet not to cause any trouble. It was like I didn't know the definition of "aggression" or even just being assertive. Whenever someone wronged me, I'd just sit there and think it would cause conflict to say something about it. I never stood up for myself for the longest time so people would treat me badly and I would just passively take it.

I seem to be growing into my Mercury and Mars in Aries so I'm no longer as passive as before. There's still some of that to an extent. Well, until Pluto's square to my Mercury works its magic. I'm assuming I'll become more vocal at some point. I also assume it'll be more on the assertive side than outright aggression.

Libra has to be careful or they'll end up bottling up their anger and then they will just explode without warning. My boyfriend has Mars in Libra and this is an issue with him. He'll just bottle up his anger and I won't know he has a problem until months later when he can't handle it anymore.

Libras need a balanced approach to things. They have to learn how to be assertive without feeling bad for speaking up. If they don't, they will be mistreated.

It's just really sad being a Libra in the most popular Astrology because Libras love attention too. And Scorpios get all of it. First of all scorpio is the incognito one. It's not fair and doesn't make sense for Scorpio to get all of the attention because theyre supposed to be the sign that's all about things hidden. Libra is passionate and Venusian. Venus is beauty and charm. Pluto is the underworld and all things not so pleasant. I mean who would want to talk about it if its not so pleasant anyway???

I think most people with the right mind should want to surround themselves with things beautiful and harmonious. This is why I will never understand the rep Astrologers give to Libras! We're the bomb dot com...

And Scorpio is extremes, revenge, secrets. Like that's not so great in the real world...

sometimes you cant say things because the wrong people with power will over power you and make you into the criminal when theyre the instigator and the dogmatic one.
It's actually really pathetic how things are for Libras. They're too pure and kind to fight off the demons. They want to befriend them and that's not the way to go....

Not me. And offhand, I can't think of other Librans to do so either, though one was very concerned about being justified to an extreme degree that her thinking got very delusional regarding other people. I actually think of her chart being Scorpio-dominant, though growing up in an extremely abusive home that also gaslit her hard didn't help. Still, she often stood up for herself and took on people that others were too scared to (and despite being asexual she got called in to help with the sex ed classes--in California so actual education rather than what many to most states practice--as the teachers would call in sick that day, and the attempt of the kids to rattle her failed).

Another one experienced violence and jail time because he'd call out cops who were doing inappropriate things. (Hmm, now I'm wondering how he and Judge Judy would get along...probably not that well as that Libra had some anarchist leanings that believed laws were the protection of the rich and burden of the poor so were inherently corrupt, and I doubt Judge Judy would tolerate that attitude, but as he was a skilled debater the verbal sparks between them could be interesting, assuming it didn't happen in a courtroom where Judy would just have him thrown out.)

One Libra was such a hothead in which I realized it was impossible to get along with him that I, 19 (and my Sag stellium didn't help), took more joy than I should've in trolling him (in real life).

Back in high school, the vast majority of girls were passive aggressive, at least to me (as that's what they could get away with, but knew better than to actually try to menace me). One exception was another Libra (and an astro-twin, born the same day in the same hospital as me), and though she was prim and proper without being spineless (and her Sag stellium was 12H, which I think contributed to her disliking my 5H Sag vibe), she was quite forward with her disapproval of me. I was actually a bit impressed that she spoke so boldly to me, but she did so in Libra terms which means she wasn't cussing up a storm or actually get into my face or otherwise threaten me (which is why I gave as good as I got but she was in danger of my getting violent with her, and our not-so-friendly banter was very entertaining to the rest of the class as much as an exasperation to our control freak teacher who insisted we sit next to each other because it put us in alphabetical order).

But no Libra (not even that hothead) that I can think of right now resorted to Jerry Springer behavior with a ton of profanity and shrieking and cheap one-liners, and those like me responded in disdain to those who did (and if they were threatening I could even be violent, though there was no yelling, I just did it--and Linda Goodman described Libra as the one who would just calmly do something like that, though typically as a last resort) and see sinking to that level as beneath me...even though some like myself recognize that many people actually admire such crude behavior even though it's more worthy of a toddler or beast in the jungle than a thinking being, but even though many are actually impressed by that doesn't mean it's acceptable (so much for going along with the trends). But that didn't mean we therefore cringed and submitted. Libra tries to be fair, and that means to one's self as to others.

You should've seen me as a teen when the school principal tried to intimidate me, I'd throw him completely off balance by bluntly yet calmly speaking my mind, and he'd get really defensive fast. I think he'd have preferred me to shrieking, sobbing, and throwing things as then he could dismiss me. 'Course he had the authority and I got punished all the same, but I stood my ground, and even stumped one principal trying to rattle me when I was as young as 13, possibly even just before I turned 13. (Though it should be noted I have a Sag Mars-Uranus sextile to my Libra sun-Merc-Pluto.)


Check what Linda Goodman wrote about us, even back in the mid-20th century (or maybe 1960s) when traditional gender roles prevailed. She warned of how contrarian we can be regardless of our gender, and warned men marrying a Libra woman not to underestimate her mind or will no matter how charming she may seem at times (I believe she described us as an iron fist in a pretty silk glove). And some of the anecdotes in her book on love signs are hilarious. Cardinal Libras can be fussy, but I would not say a wimp, unless one has to resort to throwing a temper tantrum and blustering juvenile insults to not be considered a wimp. If you find yourself that way then I'd look at other aspects of the chart.

Where is the Libra when things get tough?
Pretending you don't exist.

Where is the Scorpio when things get tough?
Right there with you, possibly f*cking you too.

In my mind, there's no question as to who I'd rather be surrounded by. Though many Librans have Scorpio in their charts too, so...


Also, your post makes your motives so transparent. How can you expect attention if you have no substance that warrants it?
(Not talking about you personally because IDK you, obviously)

Libras can just be snobby sometimes in my opinion and that's why you guys always get your a**es handed back to you when you least expect it (especially on this site! I read somewhere this site is a Scorpio sun, Aquarius moon? Haha!). This thread you created kind of makes me feel that way even more. Saying it's "hard" to be a Libra on this site when I've for sure seen other signs get "bashed" worse than what any Libra has (the meanest thing we've said about Libras is that ya'll are snobby oml we didn't say you kill people ); it's just so self-victimizing to speak like this Desire... Also why do you make such a point to say you care so much for attention? Lol is attention really that serious? Also, even if Scorpios do get a lot of attention why does it bother you so much mentally? I think Cancers get a lot of undeserved attention but I'm not going...to make a whole thread over it. They're a little annoying to me (as are all signs, including my own) but I don't really hold malice for them like that... Maybe YOU in particular are a bit over-sensitive/wimpy, but I don't know.... It's really just not that serious.

And about that last comment towards Scorpios:
" And Scorpio is extremes, revenge, secrets. Like that's not so great in the real world..."

^^^ Venusians are the same exact way (have none of you ever read up on Venus in mythology :laughing so maybe you are projecting. What do you think you are even doing by making this thread? Is it not secretive and vengeful, going to this extreme after a particular someone (who I shall not name bc I know you're annoyed by their presence) responded to you in a way you didn't particularly like? Geez! There's nothing wrong with calling people out on their bullsh*t, believe me of all people best, but don't try to act like you aren't doing the same thing you are bashing them for

Geez, geez, geez

Some of you really come on this site to release your most bitter mindsets without realizing you are looking in a mirror...I've had to learn to take a jovial jupiter laugh once in a while. This website is such a mess at times.

What are my motives?
And also that’s like saying one person is the good guy and the others the jerk. So you’re saying one is mor loyal than the other but I think that’s all in terms of perspective.

I think the mess is when you directly tell people what they are thinking and psychoanalyze out loud. That’s the problem with Scorpio. No one gets to think or say anything without another listening to their every thought. Just let things flow freely it’s not fun when I have to constantly watch what I say. That’s not even right to do. That’s just annoying. Nothing natural or free. All planned and manipulative. Scorpios are disgusting.
Just kidding!
But seriously stop.

Just kidding you can do what you want. And say what you want. I actually lost interest in this thread. PEACE 😇

What was the point of you making the thread then if you didn't want people to like...have an opinion. Just blatantly saying "Scorpios are disgusting" and then running away "PEACE" lol okay, have a nice day Desire. No one on here hates you or is making you watch what you say; you're doing it yourself. Speak freely without biting your tongue back ("Just kidding! but seriously stop" ???) and then people won't call you a wimp. You literally just did it...

Judge Judy is a Libra, and she is no wimp.

But then again, she has Sun conjunct Mars, so there's that!

Lol. No offense. Have had a few throw others under the bus so that they look good.

Maybe having the ability to manoeuvre their way out of anything and everything is what it should be called.
