Looking for More than Just a Pretty Face

When A Male Libra Learns to Look from the Inside Out

Dear Yael,

I was born on Sept. 24, 1976 at 2 p.m. in (withheld for privacy).  I have had several unsuccessful relationships and have been dating on and off again for a couple of years now.  As a Libra man, I find it very hard to find a woman who both physically and intellectually gets me 100 percent.  Personally, I am reluctant to taking much stock in Astrology but I thought to give this a go and see what you think.  I feel like I am waiting for the perfect woman to fall in my lap, even though I know she doesn’t exist. Based on my profile, what kind of woman would fit me long-term?

Dear Mr. Libra,

I’m pleased you wrote in despite your reluctance.  I have some suggestions for you regarding your chart that you may want to consider. 

I immediately noticed that three of your main planets are in Libra. Libras tend to take a lot of time prior to making serious decisions.  They are known for their indecisiveness and love of all things beautiful.  You may have found  that without establishing a solid belief system, your eyes are prone to wandering in search of perfection.  This is not to say that you will not be loyal after you make your final decision, but you must proceed with the utmost caution before doing so.

A Libra Sun and Moon combination forces you to seek harmony, balance, and evenness in your life and in your personal relationships.  You also crave companionship and affection.  You may even feel incomplete without a woman by your side.  You may find it difficult to express your emotions, but in love you yield easily.  You may have dated various women already who took you for granted.  Be mindful that because you love beautiful women, you may attract those without much substance. Also be cautious of those who want to be with you because of what you give them materially.  You are prone to overindulging those you are interested in. 

Due to your Capricorn Ascendant, you come off as reserved, logical, and methodical.  You are also more cautious in love and will not commit yourself until you are at least 99 percent sure of your choice. 

Thus, based on your profile, I would suggest you work on a few things. Even though this may be a difficult exercise for you, I suggest you try to look at women from the inside out.  Most of your difficulties are the result of gauging women on a superficial note.  You have to delve a bit further into  yourself and what you truly want long-term before making a final assessment.  Make a list of  the most important traits you need in a woman, while leaving aside the physical.  Go from there.

Yael
