Libra and Libra

Compatibility overview

The secure and tender connection between two natives of Libra can be one of the most promising shared-energy combinations in the Western zodiac. As ever with own-sign matches, a surplus of some qualities and dearth of others is likely to cause imbalances. But mutual support and camaraderie comes naturally to this contemplative, judicious pairing.

All own-sign combinations in the Western zodiac share the same beneficial element, which for two Libras is the lively, cerebral influence of Air. Right from the start, these two are likely to be attracted by their mutual love of diverse concepts and possibilities.

Two Libra natives will tend to admire greatly each other's enthusiasm, insight, and receptiveness. Libra's favorite time in any project is usually the formative stage, when options are at their most abundant and inchoate, hence for both parties this relationship may transition enticingly from one world of possibility to the next. The fine art of conversation will rarely seem so enjoyable as when they push each other to consider every angle, their extended sessions of intellectual exploration conducted with freedom, generosity, and acceptance, all the while increasing their closeness and mutual admiration.

Of course, own-sign matches must also deal with a shared modality, which in this case is the pure Cardinal energy associated with beginnings and inception. This energy may enhance the immediate sense of kinship between two Libras when they meet, but over time it can also lead to a growing sense of stagnation, of going around in circles rather than making meaningful progress. Without the influence of a balancing modality, dispute resolution might also prove challenging—like all Air signs, Libra has the potential to be bitingly critical or judgmental when frustrated. This pair would be well advised to make a conscious effort to stay nimble and creative, re-inventing aspects of their relationship as and when they feel fatigued, and giving each other space to recover from periods of intense collective brainstorming.

If they do not overwhelm each other, the sense of solidarity two Libras share may ultimately prove their greatest strength, contributing lasting warmth and belonging to their dynamic.

Douglas Emhoff and Kamala Harris

Kamala Harris (10/20/1964, Libra Dragon), Douglas Emhoff (10/13/1964, Libra Dragon) : The 49th Vice President of the US and her entertainment lawyer husband have been married since 2014. Harris is stepmother to Emhoff's two children from a previous marriage. In 2021, Emhoff wrote about campaigning together: "Before long, something clicked. This wasn’t just her work anymore — it was ours. As the campaign took us to different corners of the country, I took notes on what I heard out on the trail and shared them with Kamala over late night meals and stolen moments between events...I found that as I began dipping my toe into Kamala’s world, it brought us even closer together. I realized how much of yourself you leave on the trail, how much these stories weigh on you, and—though I couldn’t imagine it possible before this—I grew to understand and admire who she is and what she’s been able to accomplish even more. She had such a tremendous weight on her shoulders, and we were in a fight for the soul of this nation—together."

John Coltrane (9/23/1926, Libra Tiger), Thelonious Monk (10/10/1917, Libra Snake) : The two legends of jazz music shared a supportive and collaborative friendship. Their work together included the album, Thelonious Monk with John Coltrane (1961), and the live recording, Thelonious Monk Quartet with John Coltrane at Carnegie Hall (recorded 1957, released 2005). Coltrane explained in 1960: "Working with Monk brought me close to a musical architect of the highest order. I felt I learned from him in every way—through the senses, theoretically, technically. I would talk to Monk about musical problems and he would sit at the piano and show me the answers just by playing them...[Monk] also got me into the habit of playing long solos on his pieces, playing the same piece for a long time to find new conceptions of solos. It got so I would go as far as possible on one phrase until I ran out of ideas. The harmonies got to be an obsession for me."

Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas

Catherine Zeta-Jones (9/25/1969, Libra Rooster), Michael Douglas (9/25/1944, Libra Monkey) : The two actors share one of Hollywood's highest profile relationships. They married in 2000, and have two children. After a much-publicized but brief separation in 2013, they reconciled. Douglas described in 202: "We celebrated our 18th anniversary recently, and besides the genuine love that only continues to grow, I think the fact that we're in the same industry really helps us to understand what is going on...The joy of my marriage with Catherine and having our children at a point in my life where my career had been developed, allowed me much more time to enjoy my family."

Barbara Walters and Joy Behar

Barbara Walters (9/25/1929, Libra Snake), Joy Behar (10/7/1942, Libra Horse) : The two media personalities co-starred on the successful talk show founded by Walters, The View (1997-present). Walters reportedly selected Behar at the outset because, "She’s funny, intelligent and well-informed. I chose Joy because we wanted the show to be entertaining." After Walters died in 2022, Behar said, "[Walters is] very much the role model for a lot of people in showbiz and the news world for sure. She had a work ethic you couldn’t deny. She was always prepared and she was always working on her material. She never went out there and didn’t know what she was doing...She could have a laugh, have fun, tell a dirty joke. She was a lot of fun. We were pals. We’ve had a lot of laughs on camera and off camera."

A$AP Rocky and A$AP Ferg

A$AP Ferg (10/20/1988, Libra Dragon), A$AP Rocky (10/3/1988, Libra Dragon) : The two rappers are two of the highest-profile members of the hip hop collective, A$AP ("Always Strive And Prosper"). They have collaborated multiple times, including on the tracks, "Shabba" (2013), "Ghetto Symphony" (2013), "Work REMIX" (2013), "Hella Hoes" (2014), "New Level" (2015), "Runnin" (2018), and "Pups" (2019). A$AP Ferg described in 2019: "I don’t know everybody’s relationship with Rocky, but I got a real relationship with Rocky...Some people just think we don’t f— with each other sometimes, because they don’t see us together and s—. Like, no, we have a real relationship and s—. Regardless if I was A$AP or not, that’s my brother. That’s my brother... Nobody can’t talk to him about what we’re going through the way I can. Nobody else on the team can really have certain conversations with Rocky except for me, because I’ve experienced certain things on a certain level. Also, nobody on the outside is close enough to talk to Rocky the way I talk to him. So I’m talking to him like, 'You good? How’s the family?' Just everything. His home being invaded, and just, everything...We spend time together, too. I spent time at his crib. We were working out and was chilling for like two weeks together. He came to Harlem and stayed at my crib. He stayed for about a week. We make it happen and I always make sure my brother is good."

Compatibility overview

A quite delightful combination! The pairing of firsteast with secondeast does not have the highest profile in Chinese astrology. However, there are strong synergies between these two signs, and the harmonious surrounding energy suggests some fantastic possibilities.

Like the elements in Western astrology, the four Trine Families that make up the zodiac can be divided into two generally compatible pairs. The families of the Monkey (with the Dragon and Rat) and Rooster (with the Ox and Snake) make up one such pair.

Among this group of six signs, there are some fabled combinations. While the pairing of Monkey and Rooster is perhaps less famous than some of the others, these two benefit strongly from this lucky surrounding atmosphere. The brilliant Monkey, who tends to become easily bored if not suitably entertained, is likely to be bewitched instantly by the Rooster's dazzling pizzazz. The Rooster, on the other hand—whose insightfulness and perseverance are sometimes masked by their on point self-presentation—will recognize quickly how gifted the Monkey is, and how successful they can be when they apply themselves. Together, these two can become a formidable collaborative team, leveraging the Monkey's genius ideas and the Rooster's determination and style.

There may be a distance between these two, at times. The Monkey's tendency towards despondency and isolation may not always sit well with the Rooster's propensity for self-involvement and arrogance. These are two highly spirited personalities, so downward spirals may seem very intense in the moment, and both signs could feel rather lonely from time to time. Contexts that allow both parties a degree of independent movement, alongside bursts of intensive shared endeavour, may prove easiest to manage in the long term.

That said, these two see the world in ways that are often deeply compatible, so the prospects for success across all kinds of relationships are potentially very promising indeed.

Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump

Jared Kushner (1/10/1981, Capricorn Monkey), Ivanka Trump (10/30/1981, Scorpio Rooster) : The couple married in 2009, and have three children. They became one of the highest profile couples in the world when they both worked as senior White House advisers during the presidency of Trump's father, President Donald Trump. Ivanka Trump described in 2015: "[Kushner's] own dreams are bold, and I love that in someone, but he’s incredibly relaxed and calm. The world could be collapsing around him, and nothing fazes him. He’s very solution oriented. Plus, it was nice finding someone who is a genuinely good person. I don’t take that for granted. I feel really lucky to have met, like, a great New Jersey boy."

George Lucas (5/14/1944, Taurus Monkey), Marcia Lucas (10/4/1945, Libra Rooster) : The director and film editor were married from 1969 to 1983. They had an adopted child together. The couple famously collaborated on the Star Wars trilogy, with Marcia Lucas winning an Academy Award for her editing work. Marcia described in 1983: "I love editing and I’m real gifted at it. I have an innate ability to take good material and make it better, or take bad material and make it fair. I’m compulsive about it. I think I’m even an editor in real life."

Serena Williams and Venus Williams

Venus Williams (6/17/1980, Gemini Monkey), Serena Williams (9/26/1981, Libra Rooster) : The sisters are two of the most successful professional tennis players in the history of the game. Venus Williams described in 2021: "I think we're each other's hero. I know that I'm the oldest sister so it's different, but [Serena is] in the sense that she's my younger sister and she's the only one [of my siblings] younger than me. So she's the only one that I have to like 'take care of.' So she's my, everything in that sense. And she's the best younger sister you could ever have. She's so protective. And I learned so much from her on, off the court and I couldn't have been the person that I am or won any titles really without cause I watched her."

Kim Kardashian (10/21/1980, Libra Monkey), Pete Davidson (11/16/1993, Scorpio Rooster) : The media personality and comedian formed a high-profile couple when they dated between 2021 and 2022. In 2022, Kardashian described: "It feels good just to know that, like, [Davidson and I] have this connection and we have our little bubble of a relationship world that we live in that, like, not a lot of people know about. We were driving in the car yesterday and I just, like, looked at him and I was like, 'Thank you.' And he was like, 'What?' And I was like, 'For running errands with me, like, this is so much fun just to go to a doctor’s appointment or go to the dentist and just, like, run errands. I’m having so much fun.'"

Nick Cave and Kylie Minogue

Kylie Minogue (5/28/1968, Gemini Monkey), Nick Cave (9/22/1957, Virgo Rooster) : The two Australian singers became friends after they collaborated on the song, 'Where The Wild Roses Grow' (1996), which they have continued to perform live together since. Minogue has described: "Everything I did with [Cave] was just so tender and epic and close. He’s so amazing and loving, and it’s one of my favourite things I’ve ever done. He’s definitely infiltrated my life in beautiful and profound ways."

21 Savage (10/22/1992, Libra Monkey), Metro Boomin (9/16/1993, Virgo Rooster) : The rapper and producer have established one of the most prolific and successful collaborations in contemporary hip-hop, including the EP, Savage Mode (2016), and the albums, Without Warning (2017) (with Offset), and Savage Mode II (2020). The narration for Savage Mode II, spoken by Morgan Freeman, includes this introduction: "Great men with great ideals can be separated by hundreds or even thousands of miles and still be in the same place. They can be years or even generations apart in age. And yet, somehow, find themselves on the exact same page. When these men join forces to put the focus of reaching the same goals, to attain the same outcomes, they are not two, but one. Instead of simply adding one's common attributes to another's, they somehow tend to multiply all attributes of both. Whether from [Metro Boomin's home] St. Louis or [21 Savage's home] East Atlanta, whether from a savage land or a booming metropolis, whether they are two or two billion, the greatest their numbers could ever become, is to truly become one."

Ariana Grande and Miley Cyrus

Miley Cyrus (11/23/1992, Sagittarius Monkey), Ariana Grande (6/26/1993, Cancer Rooster) : The two singers share a strong friendship, and famously performed together at the One Love Manchester benefit concert in 2017. Referencing their performance, Cyrus said: "Ariana’s an open book. She has always shared her experiences with this beautiful blend of reality and the fantasy that pop culture requires. But holding her in my arms that night and feeling her shake from the loss of lives, literally feeling her heart pounding against mine – when you can let down the personas and cry with the rest of the world, it’s unifying. It’s a reminder that music can be our greatest healer."

Final Words

The own-sign match of firstwest and secondwest gives this relationship the blessing of a common outlook, albeit that overfamiliarity may lead to a lack of excitement from time to time. With the Chinese zodiac match of firsteast and secondeast contributing admiration and harmony from kindred Trine families, this is a reliable and nourishing combination in any context.
