Remember accurate astrology requires a look at the whole chart – the moon is only one part of it, albeit one of the most important! The house the moon is in and its aspects will also strongly affect its expression.
Personality
Moon in libra, you are kind hearted, gentle and friendly. The moon gives us our instinctual nature – in Libra the moon’s instincts are to connect with others, to be fair and create peace around you. The more negative side to it is that you can be over accommodating of other’s needs and struggling to achieve that which you desire most – balance between you and the surrounding world. This also translates as a desire for justice and gives rise to the most famous trait of Libra which is indecision. Your desire for balance can mean a great deal of time spent weighing the two sides of a situation. This invariably has its benefits and drawbacks; use that wise judgement where possible but accept that sometimes you just have to blindly go for an option.
The Moon also shows us our emotional world. On the upside you can be quite cheerful, easy-going, energetic. You love to connect with others and live through shared experiences together. You choose to express your emotions in a socially accepted manner and you will think twice about confronting unpleasant matters. And that has its downsides – conflict is sometimes necessary to push us out of our comfort zones and help us redefine our views.
When you are stressed out you can become quite anxious and nervous. You get quickly overwhelmed by feeling and the rational mind needs to kick in, emotions are less lived for you and more explained. When your life goes off track you might become almost paralysed, and feel quite unable to cope. Alternatively you might behave erratically. Breathe. Similar to other air signs you might prefer evading your emotions in distractions or simply by remaining at an arm’s length.
You feel comforted by your friends, by beautiful art and music and that is great – dance, create, meet people. But in the long run it will help you to build some stamina in dealing with the unpleasant parts of life – maybe start very basic at getting messy in your art – nothing bad will happen we promise. Trust others to sometimes guide you to the other side of your comfort zone and towards new experiences. And as an air sign – breathe, do breathwork regularly.
At Work
Moon in Libra, ideally you would prefer a beautiful and comfortable environment. You also quite dislike experiencing shocks in general, so it needs to feel safe and you would gladly participate in creating it. You will be a great employee, especially if you feel that you are treated fairly and correctly. As a leader you might be too indecisive and in trying to make everyone happy you might end up making them all dissatisfied. If you are passionate about something you actually have the courage to go into freelancing but stay strong and don’t let the initial difficulties influence you negatively.
If you can avoid it, do not accept a role that might give you a sense of loneliness. You will probably prefer to have the opportunity to socialise at work and you will be considerate and diplomatic towards your colleagues.
There can be a love of all things beautiful and pleasant, so if the rest of your charts supports it you can look into careers ranging from painting, music to working in the beauty industry.
You also might enjoy a socially useful profession – a lot of possibilities there as well – from teaching to mediating. Counselling and therapy could be another road where you can find your desire to communicate and interact with others, along with your ability to weigh up situations, can help people get perspective in life.
Other jobs where you have to deal with people and use your good judgement could be working in the law industry or customer service. There are a lot of options to explore, depending on the rest of the chart.
In Relationships
Libra Moon – you like to connect to others, but on a somewhat superficial level. You are friendly but might struggle to connect deeply, and as a result you seem detached and lukewarm. You are keen on romantic relationships, flirtatious and you would like to keep the sense of romance present forever. When it starts getting serious and by definition messy, you might feel out of control and unsure of how to deal with that.
You need a partner that can treat you with loving kindness, who can offer you some reassurance. Someone with whom you can relax together, share your ideas and explore different projects. Emphasis on together, as LIbra Moons prefer doing things “not-alone” – socialising, going to a concert are great for them. As with the other air signs, try to make sure you have a good friendship base or family that you can be active with. This will help to take pressure off of the expectations in a relationship. When your partner isn’t up for doing the same things as you, call your best friend.
Libra Moon in a relationship you can be kind to a fault. Being understanding and forgiving is great and does make for a good companion. But being overly accommodating, overly considerate and putting your partner before yourself can be unhealthy for you. Remember it is ok to sometimes put yourself first.
Another thing is that avoiding conflict and having true peace are not the same things. Dealing with issues while they are small, however uncomfortable it might be at the time, means they don’t build up and become unbearable. Avoid getting trapped by others in their understanding of how a relationship should be or feel. Find out what you need and be brave to communicate it, deal with issues firmly and confidently (you can!-cardinal). Otherwise you will feel stuck in a stagnant relationship. And you will suffer if you feel you are not being treated fairly, because fairness is of major importance to you.
You find it very difficult to end relationships and might stay in them long after they are not of service to you anymore.
Remember though that through negotiating needs your diplomatic skills can help to build a truly healthy and balanced relationship, just have a little faith, a little courage and see confrontation as a means towards lasting peace and harmony.
Stay balanced, stay harmonious and we’ll see you next time.
