I knew an aries/libra couple and they fought like crazy. Which is funny because I had never witnessed the libra argue about anything before. I think the aries brought out a little feistiness in the libra. The libra eventually left because she was sick of the fighting. With a bit more patience and understanding on the aries end, it could have worked out. The aries was sort of like a tank (or king ) when dealing with the libra. Maybe he was afraid she was gonna leave, but you know, you have to just let the libra be free, if they love you they aren't going anywhere.  So, what challenges are you experiencing, Sweetlibra?

Hey Sweetlibra hope this helps you: When Aries and Libra come together, the natural polarity of the Zodiac is invoked. Aries and Libra are directly opposite one another in the Zodiac -- 180 degrees apart. Each Sign possesses qualities that the other lacks; combined with Libra's natural yen for harmony, this can be a relationship that enjoys great balance. Aries is the Sign of Self while Libra is the Sign of Partnership, and the differences continue: Aries is impulsive, ready to jump into something new and exciting, while Libra is indecisive, peace-loving and prefers a calm, smooth approach. Aries can learn from Libra that their own way isn't necessarily the best way. These two Signs share the great sexual attraction common to all Signs opposite in polarity. At the same time, though this pair's connection is amazing when it's good, it can be extremely challenging when it's bad. All polarities have energies that tend to tangle or knot if understandings can't be reached. As a combination, Aries and Libra are well-balanced. Charming, cultured Libra can teach brash Aries something about style. Libra prizes harmony in a relationship and will go to great lengths to maintain it. Aries is very decisive and can teach indecisive Libra about relying on intuition for answers. Aries is ruled by the Planet Mars and Libra is ruled by the Planet Venus. This is a great match, as these are the Planets of Passion and Love, respectively. Venus and Mars go well together as they're the two sides of the love relationship coin. They're universally recognised as male and female and this relationship is a good balance of masculine and feminine energy. Venus is about the beauty of romance while Mars is about the passion of romance. Aries is a Fire Sign and Libra is an Air Sign. Air fuels Fire and helps it grow and spread. Aries can have a very positive effect on Libra's growth, ideas and progress; Aries can help Libra put their ideas into action. Working together can be challenging at times, however, due to their polarity. Aries's fast, impetuous approach to projects may conflict with Libra's more balanced, intellectual approach. However, both Signs have wide-ranging interests, and at the end of a long, active day, Aries can come home full of interesting stories to tell the more cerebral Libra. Aries and Libra are both Cardinal Signs. They both have a lot of initiative -- but lack in the ability to follow through. They both tend to start things they're never going to finish, whether it's a job, a project, a relationship ... Aries will appear to be the leader because of their energy and forceful nature, but Libra leads from an intellectual standpoint. Both Signs want to be in charge, but Aries uses force and sometimes intimidation to get what they want while Libra uses charm and sometimes manipulation. Compromise is essential to this relationship's health. Diplomatic Libra has a much easier time with compromise than does Aries, who strongly dislikes yielding to another person, viewing it as submission. Libra may have to give in more often to Aries' wishes in order to keep the peace that they so need What's the best aspect of the Aries-Libra relationship? The harmony resulting from the union of Venus and Mars. The balance between self and other represented by this polarity is a great learning experience for both Signs. Each brings to the relationship what the other is missing, making for a wonderful balance.

Wanted to add a little input to this - I have Libra sun and my very bestest friend has Aries sun. She has gotten me through some of the toughest times in my life when other then her I felt completely alone. She has been my rock and never ceases to lift me up and remind me how to fly, and I hope I do the same for her. She is the most compassionate, giving person I know and the only time me have ever fallen out is when I once took advantage (not meaning to) of her generous nature, however following an apology (and not repeating my mistake) my transgression was forgiven and she has never reminded me of it. I had always read that being opposites, Aries and Libra either Love or Hate, but never any middle ground. We often joke that had one of us been a man, we'd be married by now!!! Lord I love that woman!  I don't know if this helps any, all I can say is if there's love - love is all you need!  Oh and never take advantage of their generosity!!!  Good Luck!IP: Logged |

Thanks for all your insights  The main challenge is in communication.There's no confusion when it comes to love. We get along well since words are not that necessary. But when it comes to other issues there's always some misunderstanding and resultant conflicts.Ofcourse we sort it out after much fuss over it.To make things clear, i'll give you one example. Last Monday i had lots of problems at work place. He called me up and i ignored his call, since i was busy in sorting things out.Also we sometimes give missed calls to eachother which means 'i miss you'. Later in the night i gave him n number of calls & text messages but no respose from him. After 2 days of non-communication he says he didnt want to disturb me as i was 'busy making my own policy decisions' and that i spoiled his mood also.. Unfortunately i was in a detached mood then and he got emotional when i asked why should my mood swings affect him..! Poor him i think he's very much insecure. Everyday i assure him that i love him.But when he speaks of conflict free life i tell him plainly that he cant expect such a life with me and he has all the freedom to decide if he wanted to be with me.. May be his libra moon is confusing him a lot  IP: Logged |

I would say, you guys are hurting each other by not being kinder. When you have a problem or feel "detached" open up and make sure he can do the same. As you said its a communication problem. Learn to rely and count on each other and settle into the relationship a bit more. You probably like to keep it interesting, but that does not have to include drama. Good luck, Sweetlibra.

Isnt Libra into harmony and beauty and with my experience of aries (my father is one and I have it on the ascendant), I feel the aggression would be too much for the peace loving Libra. Although I like the aries energy I could never be with one - too egotistical for me and being a Scorp I think it would be too much honesty for the delicate aries ego. xxxxIP: Logged |

Libras are naturally peace loving.But somehow i am always attracted to agressive people.I feel he's the one for me  in my experience if i am not ready to do reconciliation, my aries will do it and vice versa.Hope love can overcome all differences  IP: Logged | |
