Libras are mainly known for their strong interest and commitment to justice, harmony and balance. They are extroverted, friendly and fun to be around. They’re also known to be charming and intellectual, but to truly understand a Libra, it’s important to understand all aspects of their personality.
Libra Is an Air Sign: What Does that Mean?
Each of the 12 zodiac signs is associated with one of the four elements: air, water, fire or earth. Libra is one of three air signs, along with Aquarius and Gemini. Understanding how air signs behave can give greater insight into Libra’s personality type and how they interact with other air signs.
All three air signs share common traits, but they are best known for being the communicators of the zodiac. They are often talkative, witty and charming, making them great friends and fun to be around, but they are also thinkers who like to contemplate ideas and beliefs. Their combined knack for communication and intelligence makes them analytic and curious about the world.
Because air signs see things in similar ways, they typically tend to get along with each other right off the bat, but Libra specifically can get along with almost anyone. Some of their most compatible signs (other than Gemini and Aquarius) include Virgo and Sagittarius.

Harmony, Balance and Justice
Libra is represented by the symbol of the scales, representing the notion of balance. Libras are serious about playing fair and they make excellent peacekeepers. If you have a Libra friend, you likely have seen this trait in action. Libras tend to be the ones to mediate a situation and calm others down. This also makes them level-headed and open to compromise in their own interactions with people.
Communication
Though not known to be quite as chatty as its air sign cousins Gemini and Aquarius, Libra enjoys conversation. They are also great listeners, which makes them easy people to talk to. They often express more interest in hearing the thoughts and stories of others than the need to share their own. Though Libras communicate easily with people, they don’t have any problems voicing their own beliefs and thoughts. Because they are interested and good at explaining their viewpoint, people enjoy hearing what Libras have to say. They just need to be mindful to not gossip, which can happen easily for Libra.

Extroverted
Because of their talkative, curious nature, Libras usually identify as extroverts. They make friends easily, don’t have trouble talking to new people and can express themselves in an eloquent and witty manner. Libras care about other people and put a lot of energy into their relationships, which makes them great romantic partners. They like to form strong bonds and are sensitive to the needs and feelings of others.
Laid-back
All of these other traits make Libra pretty laid-back. They don’t get easily upset and don’t like to fuel the fire when it comes to conflict. They are much more willing to take a step back and reach a logical, understanding conclusion. Though they are laid-back, they are fun, but fun doesn’t necessarily have to mean attending a house party or hitting a club for the night. Libras enjoy the finer things, so a dinner at a nice restaurant with good friends sharing a bottle of wine is Libra’s idea of a great night.
