Long term

Libra and Pisces in love are more muse than romance. Both are gentle, neither will decide, so they rarely get past a short romance. As inspiration for each other, though, they are excellent.

What draws them together

Mostly it is beauty. Libra takes Pisces to a gallery, Pisces stands twenty minutes before a single painting, and Libra respects that. Both are soft and gentle, and dislike coarseness and raised voices. Both also want to please, so early on they watch that they say nothing that might hurt. It is closer to liking and admiration than to a spark. When the first rush of gentleness fades, they find that neither can take the lead and that each expects the other to.

Love and intimacy

The tenderness is there, but the pull is missing. Pisces melts and expects Libra to read it in their eyes. Libra tries, but is looking for balance, not fusion. Pisces feels that Libra always retreats a little into politeness, and loses certainty. Libra feels that Pisces wants more than can be given at once. The closeness is sensitive but more about mood than about joining. They are nearest to each other over shared music or a film, when nothing has to be decided.

Everyday life and home

Who calls the plumber? Neither. Who decides about dinner at a quarter to ten? Neither, so at ten they eat whatever is in the fridge. Libra wants the flat to look lovely, Pisces wants it warm, and both tend to put things off. Bills arrive late and bother nobody until the reminder comes. Pisces lets other people's moods flood in, Libra would rather retreat into pleasantness than into a quarrel. Given time, the flat is beautifully furnished and full of half-finished things and unasked questions.

Where it rubs and how to ease it

Libra says what the other wants to hear to keep things pleasant, and Pisces takes it as a promise. Then it turns out it wasn't one, and Pisces stops believing the next sentences too. Pisces wraps up in a mood and doesn't explain it, Libra buries it in courtesy and gets no closer. Both hate conflict, so nothing is settled. Two habits ease it: Libra says an awkward "no", and Pisces names a need before it turns into days of quiet. Full birth charts count as well: with a kind Moon or Venus on either side, it can go better than the Sun signs promise.

Libra man and Pisces woman

A Libra man beside a Pisces woman wants to be considerate and tries to please her, but she needs to feel he has opinions too. When he answers everything with "whatever you like", he loses his outline in her eyes. He should tell her now and then what he would like, if only the choice of film.

Libra woman and Pisces man

A Libra woman feels heard by a Pisces man, but is tired of having to puzzle out his moods. He in turn is hurt when he asks and gets a smile in place of an answer. Sometimes it is worth stopping and saying one thing completely straight, with no explaining and no apology.

Keeping it alive

  • Decide one thing a week at once, even if you don't feel like it, such as where to eat.
  • Libra says "no" when they mean it. Pisces says what they need before going quiet.
  • Use what works between you: make things, play music, go to galleries.
