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$AP Ferg (10/20/1988, Libra Dragon), A$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."

This is one of the Chinese zodiac's prized Soulmate matches.

Quite simply, these two complement each other perfectly. The Monkey can discover that their sprightly cleverness is at once calmed and given true purpose by the profound, philosophical Snake. The Snake, meanwhile, finds endless delight in the Monkey's brilliant skills and frisky enthusiasm. Together, a union between these two tends to express the very best of their respective attributes. It is outwardly a spectacular blend of ingenuity, wisdom, and allure. For the parties themselves, the relationship can prove a once-in-a-lifetime source of security, reassurance, and selfless devotion.

Of course, all this potential does not come without cost. Soulmate energy can prove demanding. The Monkey and Snake may find their time together so absorbing that the relationship puts pressure on other parts of their lives. The potential for jealousy or disappointment, if either party is distracted, can be greater than with other harmonious combinations that are less intense or exclusive in orientation.

Ultimately, if this relationship is given the space it needs to breathe and grow, the rewards are likely to be nothing short of extraordinary.

June Carter (6/23/1929, Cancer Snake), Johnny Cash (2/26/1932, Pisces Monkey) : After a difficult courtship—both were religious and married to other people when they met—these two legendary country music stars were married from 1968 until 2003. They collaborated extensively, including on the albums, Carryin' On With Johnny Cash & June Carter (1967), Johnny Cash and His Woman (1973), Return to the Promised Land (2000), and Duets (2006). According to one biographer, Cash's first words on meeting Carter were, "Hello, I'm Johnny Cash and I'm going to marry you someday."

Paul Simon (10/13/1941, Libra Snake), Carrie Fisher (10/21/1956, Libra Monkey) : The actor and musician were in an intimate relationship for 12 years, off and on, including a short-lived marriage.

We dated again."

Gisele Bündchen and Tom Brady

Tom Brady (8/3/1977, Leo Snake), Gisele Bündchen (7/20/1980, Cancer Monkey) : The model and NFL legend meet in 2006 were married from 2009 to 20022. They have two children, and Bündchen is stepmother to Brady's child from a previous relationship (with Bridget Moynahan). Bündchen described early in their relationship: "You know that feeling of, like, you can’t get enough? From the first day we met, we’ve never spent one day without speaking to each other." Their break-up followed Brady's decision to return to playing NFL football only six weeks after announcing his retirement in February 2022. Shortly before their separation was announced, Bündchen described: "Obviously, I have my concerns—this is a very violent sport, and I have my children and I would like [Brady] to be more present. I have definitely had those conversations with him over and over again."

René Angélil (1/16/1942, Capricorn Snake), Celine Dion (3/30/1968, Aries Monkey) : The music producer and singer first met when Angélil heard a demo Dion recorded as a 12-year old. As well as business partners, the pair were married from 1994 until his death in 2016, and had twins together. Dion said in 2013, "We laugh. We joke. We kid each other. We want our marriage to last forever. Talk over everything and you’ll find you are still on the honeymoon. Communication — it’s the most important. It’s the secret."

Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez

Taylor Swift (12/13/1989, Sagittarius Snake), Selena Gomez (7/22/1992, Cancer Monkey) : The superstar musician and singer/actor have been close friends since 2008. Swift described in a joint interview: "There has always been this quality of sisterhood, and I don't say that in a basic way. I knew from when I met [Gomez] I would always have her back. In my life, I have the ability to forgive people who have hurt me. But I don't know if I can forgive someone who hurts her." Gomez added: "There's so much of my friendship with Taylor that people don't know about because we don't necessarily feel the need to post about everything we do. She has showed up for me in ways that I would have never expected. Flown in because I was hurt and was going through something. Stuff that was going on with my family. It's been proven year after year and in every moment of my life that she is one of my best friends in the world. We don't agree on everything, but we respect each other with everything."

Robin Dearden (12/4/1953, Sagittarius Snake), Bryan Cranston (3/7/1956, Pisces Monkey) : The two actors have been married since 1989. A year after Cranston held Dearden at gunpoint in an episode of Airwolf, they met up again and spontaneously shared a lingering kiss. Cranston has recounted, "We were both like, 'Wait that was too long, wasn’t it?'...And that is really what happened."

Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie

Dizzy Gillespie (10/21/1917, Libra Snake), Charlie Parker (8/29/1920, Virgo Monkey) : The two jazz legends collaborated extensively during the 1940s, becoming pivotal contributors to the development of bebop and modern jazz. Gillespie's memoir, To Be or Not to Bop (1985) described: "[Charlie 'Yardbird' Parker] made a gigantic contribution, which really added a new dimension to the music. It’s hard to describe it exactly, he contributed so many different elements...'Bird' has some notes in his melodies, the lines that he wrote, that are deep, deep notes, as deep as anything Beethoven ever wrote. And he had little things that he used to play inside. He’d play other tunes inside the chords of the original melody, and they were always right...Charlie Parker was something else."

Björk (11/21/1965, Scorpio Snake), Thom Yorke (10/7/1968, Libra Monkey) : The two musicians collaborated on the track "I’ve Seen It All" (with Sjón and Lars von Trier) from the soundtrack for Dancer in the Dark (2000). Bjork described at the time: "I respect [Yorke] very much. He’s very shy and uncertain and doesn’t [reveal] too much of himself. That’s why it’s quite hard for me to explain what he’s like. I can’t do him justice. But he’s a very special person. When he enters a room he affects the whole atmosphere in a very positive way...His work is based on communication and understanding. He’s very down-to-earth and not egocentric at all. We worked together for three or four days, which I’m very grateful about. We worked together with songs, which I had worked on during three years not knowing what to do with them. Thanks to him these songs saw a new light of day and that was a wonderful experience." In 2006, Yorke said Bjork's "Unravel" was, "[O]ne of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard."

Final Words

The own-sign match of firstwest and secondwest means this pairing has plenty in common. Good humor and easy repartee are likely, even if overfamiliarity may at times lead to a lack of excitement or problems resolving disputes. However, countering any less than ideal energy is the uniquely harmonious match of the firsteast and secondeast Soulmate connection, which gives this relationship truly stellar prospects.
