Overview

In astrology, Libra Men are famous for being among the most impartial signs. However, their impartiality isn’t just governed by logic as in the case of Libra Men; their impartiality comes from a strong sense of justice.

Often, they understand that the world is at its best when people treat each other fairly, and as a result they are extremely reasonable to deal with. They will often be the first to offer a compromise, because they have eyes that look towards the common good.

However, they can also encounter problems themselves and be unable to make decisions when things become personal.

Element & Modality

The Libra Man’s principal element is the Air. Air is widely known as the element that best represents human freedom and freewill. However, much like air itself, where and how it moves can affect everything around it.

Libra is a special sign in that it underscores the responsibility that comes with making personal choices. You are acutely aware that you are still constrained by the very limits of the world, and you accept it as part of you.
Indeed, this holistic view of freedom is due to Libra’s quality: Cardinal. As such, all Libras are empathetic, with an aim at balance.

Constellation

Libra Men have the Scales as their representative symbol. Based upon the Roman deity of Justice, it has since become the symbol of law, order, and equality. It signifies the highest form of ethics-- the ideal intercourse between all the people of the world.

Consistent with this view is the fact that Libras often have a code of conduct that they observe. They do not just interact with people for the sake of it, but will instead take their perspective into account.

In a way, this enlightened approach is exactly why Libra Men are so wondrous as friends and allies.

Ruling Planet

The dominant planet of the Libra Man is the planet of love and light, Venus. Venus is a planet of emotional attachments and bonds, which is crucial because it shows exactly why Libras tend to walk on the path of justice.

And with Libra’s huge capacity for thinking in advance, this means that they often succeed at making contact with other people. Where some signs are impulsive, they in fact tread lightly.

Aside from this, the cherry on top is that they are also emotionally gifted. This means that they can sense one's emotions long before they are evident.

Tips

Be firm

As a Libra Man, you must understand that nothing is ever going to work out exactly as you want it to be. As much as you want everything to go well for your friends, there are times when you have to decide past them after much consideration.

In such circumstances, be firm. Do not allow yourself to simply be swayed in the direction people choose for you. At times, justice demands harsh choices, and you must be prepared to accept that.

In the end, what matters isn't how many people you please, but how firmly you hold your ground.

Have faith in your decisions

Putting faith into anything may at times seem irrational, but for Libra Men, this may well be your only shot at having a peace of mind. The problem is that you have a tendency to be too concerned over what happens next.

But in this case, you must instead remember not your decisions themselves, but the strength of character you display when making them. You may not trust the consequences, but you can trust in your own abilities.

So hold a little more faith over your judgment. You are a mature, just person and none can take that from you.

Continue striving for fairness

This may not need emphasizing on the surface, but as a Libra Man, you are often pressed into situations where your fairness ends up being put into question. These situations can really shake your own convictions and ruin you to the core.

For example, you may be asked to choose between two friends, or do other things you normally would not. In such cases, you have your greatest weapon: your judgment.

Make good use of your inner intellect and continue fighting for the very fairness you wish to uphold, even when everything seems to go against that idea.

Be perceptive

Libra Men often feel inclined to criticize other people as a way of improving them. However, there are times where criticism of any kind isn’t warranted, such as when people are just genuinely looking for empathy.

In these situations, motives often do not matter: the act of criticism can be problematic and might only force people to go in the opposite direction, instead of being willing to accept their mistakes.

Be sensitive to the situation and environment and don't be too liberal with your tendency to critique. If necessary, ask people first before you want to state your case-- they will surely listen.

Don’t try to please everyone

As a Libra, there is a part of you that just wants everyone to be happy with you and your decisions. Of course, the problem is that this is a world where people are free to think as they please.

Naturally, this means that it’s downright impossible to truly please everyone. In this sense, therefore it is best for you to instead focus on your true worth and meditate on that worth.

Make yourself happy. This doesn't mean you shouldn't care for others entirely, but this does mean that you should also prioritize yourself just as much.

Healing

Black Tourmaline

Black Tourmaline is best used in order to help relieve anxiety throughout the day. It’s a crystal that actually serves multiple purposes, but for Libras, they particularly help release the unnerving feeling that comes with making decisions.

As such, astrologers often prescribe this crystal for use when you are feeling particularly on edge, such as waiting for some result on a test or anxiously waiting for your date’s next reply.

Don't hesitate to use this when you are feeling helpless and unsure; this crystal will do its work.

Tiger’s Eye

The crystal that resembles the ferocious tiger has various properties. In your case, since Libras can be quite unsure, indecisive or even shy, the Tiger’s Eye will provide you with an ego boost that will help you rise to the challenge.

It can also be used to help quell any doubts that may linger in your mind about something, such as planning a career change or moving out into another country or province.

When using this for career choices, a prayer for money to the Universe should help you out further.

Apatite

Apatite is a crystal of calm and one that is used to also expand your mind. When using this crystal, it sets aside any negative thoughts you may have about something and helps eliminate your tendency to self-deprecate.

This crystal is best used when you feel like you’re being forced to move out of your comfort zone. When used this way, you will be more in tune with your positive side, forcing negativity outward.

Final Word

Libra Men are some of the kindest out there. Your sense of justice is impeccable, and you’re often willing to step out of your own comfort zone just to prove that. However, there are times when even someone of your caliber wavers.

These are the moments filled with the most doubt, such as when being pressed into a dilemma that requires you to sacrifice the welfare of some for the welfare of others. Ethics regularly contends with this idea, but this hurts you more than most.

You may at times feel unsure of yourself, but each leap of faith you make will ultimately help quell that doubt slowly.
