Libra and Pisces compatibility
The art of love and the ache of it.
Libra: September 23 – October 22. Pisces: February 19 – March 20.
Are Libra and Pisces a good match?
Tradition calls it an awkward match rather than a bad one. What it runs on is fascination, and it lasts when curiosity outlives the confusion.
I will not hand you a percentage. A number like that is invented, and a Sun sign is one line of a long letter. Two people of any signs can love each other well.
What draws you together
This is a strange and romantic pairing. You are both gentle, both idealistic and both moved by beauty. Each of you can feel understood by the other in a way that seems almost like a story.
The hard part
Neither of you likes a hard decision or a hard truth. You can both drift, and both avoid, until a practical problem makes the choice for you.
How your signs sit on the wheel
You sit five signs apart, a one-hundred-fifty-degree angle astrologers call a quincunx. You share no element and no way of moving, and you cannot see each other straight across the wheel either. Each of you keeps adjusting to a person you do not quite have the language for.
Air and water meet as thought and feeling. One of you wants to talk it through and the other wants it felt first, and that gap is where most of your arguments live.
One of you sets the course and the other finds the way around what is in it. This works when the one who adapts is also asked what they want.
What each of you is really asking
Libra is asking: Will you still be here if I stop keeping the peace? Libra brings grace and fears being the cause of the rupture.
Pisces is asking: If I dissolve into this, will you hold the shape of me? Pisces brings tenderness without conditions and fears being too much, and then too little.
The desire under the question
Each of you wants the love you imagined. Ask whether either of you has met the real person sitting across from you.
Finish this line, privately
I want ___ ; I accept ___ ; I will not surrender ___ .
Fill it in about this person. Whatever you write first is usually the truth.
Two signs are only the first line.
Bring both birth dates and I'll set your signs side by side, free. If you want to stay a little longer, the Lovers' Ledger opens both charts, the pull between you, and the conversation you keep not having. One reading, $14.
