As a Libra rising sign, you give others the impression of a graceful, pleasant, and balanced person. You have a well-developed sense of beauty and consider self-care important. Therefore, you look delightful, charming, and attractive.
The way you speak and behave make people feel that you are willing to meet them halfway and thus appear trustworthy. You are gifted with the ability to please people, but in this case you should be careful not to hurt yourself by trying to please others. You can often be found in the role of a conciliator (or you just find yourself in such situations) and you want everyone to get along with each other. You are gifted with the ability to reach a compromise with others and find the golden mean in difficult situations. However, it is not always possible to please everyone or find a solution that suits everyone - this can throw you off balance, because you love when everything is harmoniously in order and under control.
Since Libra is a dual sign (there is never only one scale, but there is two looking for balance), it is difficult for you to find balance on your own and you need people around you for that. You feel your best when you're in a partnership or otherwise surrounded by people. You would rather avoid being alone (unless other placements and aspects of your birth chart preclude it).
At a younger age, you tend to be more bothered by what others think of you, and you are ready to ignore your inner feelings in order to do what your loved ones or society expects of you. It is also difficult for you to say "no" to people, because you always want to help others. However, over time you have to learn to bring more focus to yourself. You also have difficulties in all kinds of decision-making matters, because you need time to line up all the pros and cons and take into account the well-being of the people affected by the decision.
In appearance, mostly of medium height, with a slim and slender build when young, but with age the body can sometimes become rounder. Body shapes and facial features are mostly very symmetrical, the face is more square, with a light complexion. Brown or dark hair, blue eyes. Refined and graceful movements. The kidneys and lower back are a weak point.
