Libra and Scorpio compatibility
The one who keeps it pleasant, and the one who wants the truth.
Libra: September 23 – October 22. Scorpio: October 23 – November 21.
Are Libra and Scorpio a good match?
It is rarely the easy match, and often the educating one. It holds when each of you stops treating the other as a correction.
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
You sit side by side. Scorpio gives Libra an intensity that charm cannot manage, and Libra gives Scorpio an elegance and a lightness it secretly craves. There can be a strong and slightly dangerous attraction.
The hard part
Scorpio wants the real thing, and Libra wants the nice thing. Libra's social ease can look like betrayal, and Scorpio's probing can look like an attack.
How your signs sit on the wheel
You sit side by side on the wheel, with no element and no way of moving in common. Older astrology calls this a thirty-degree relationship and says little good about it. In practice, each neighbor holds what the other has just left behind or has not yet reached.
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 starts things and the other keeps them. That is a working partnership, as long as neither mistakes it for a contest of wills.
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.
Scorpio is asking: Can you bear all of it, and stay? Scorpio brings depth and fears being betrayed after handing over the keys.
The desire under the question
Libra wants to be loved without a scene. Scorpio wants a scene, because then it knows you are telling the truth.
