Why Is Libra So Kind?

If you're looking for kindness, turn to a Libra zodiac sign. Libras are ruled by Venus, which is the planet of love and beauty.

Venus is also associated with the seventh house of astrology, which symbolizes partnerships and even marriage.

But, why is Libra so kind?

Libras are so sweet and kind. This zodiac sign is often remembered for their powerful demeanors and perfectionist traits, but there’s much more to them.

Born between the dates of September 23 to October 22, Libras are gentle souls. Underneath their bossy exterior, they are actually sweethearts.

Libras hold themselves to super high standards in everything they do, including their relationships.

While they may come off as intimidating or cold at first, they will quickly change your mind and warm your heart.

They will go out of their way to shower you with love and affection, making them your favorite companion. They will forgive you when you break their heart.

Will Smith was born on September 25th, and he's a Libra male. When his relationship with Jada fell under the scrutiny of public opinion, he demonstrated Libra traits proving how sweet and kind-hearted people with this zodiac sign are.

Even famous President Jimmy Carter is a Libra. His gentle voice reminds us to speak softly to people that may not agree with our policies.

Libras have a strong need to be perfect, and that can be what drives them to help those in need. Kim Kardashian studied law to help others, and she's a Libra with extraordinary friends. Even when times are tough with her husband, Kayne West, she forgives and stands by his side.

Libras pride themselves on their kindness and knowing that they are putting their best foot forward in all of their personal relationships.

If you mean a lot to a Libra, they will compromise some of their instincts to cater to you.

Libras love control but they won’t go out of their way to win an argument if it means the possibility of losing you from their life.

They consider the consequences during disagreements and will usually let you win the argument, rather than tarnish the relationship.

They are this way with every type of relationship in their life, not just romantic ones.

1. Libras listen.

Libras are incredibly good listeners. They truly care about what you have going on and want to help in any way they can.

When you need someone to hear your problems and give good advice, Libra is the best person to talk to.

2. They love to help.

Libras will always jump at the opportunity to help others, especially those they are close to.

They won’t just nod their head and pretend to care, they will give you insightful advice to solve your problems.

Because of their strategic planning, they might even help you come up with a plan to work through your issues.

If you ever need an honest and reliable perspective, call your Libra friend for advice.

Libras are always willing to give you a hand, even when it's inconvenient for them.

3. Libras are open-minded.

Part of the reason they are so great at giving advice is their ability to keep an open mind about all situations.

You can tell a Libra even your deepest and darkest secrets without being judged.

Instead, a Libra will give you the guidance you are looking for while keeping all of your secrets safe.

Libras may not always agree with your opinion, but they will respect your right to have it.

4. Libras are patient.

Libras take their time and they don't mind it when you need your space, too.

Patience is another personality trait that makes Libras so kind is the way they approach relationships.

Libras want all of their relationships to be long-lasting and meaningful, especially romantic ones.

A Libra will nurture the relationship and make sure that your needs are met.

Their friendships are usually life long and strong in every way. In romantic relationships, a Libra will always look for something with the potential to lead to marriage.

5. Libras are loyal.

Libras will likely not engage in any flings or one-night stands. They prefer to invest their time and energy into someone they can shower with love on a consistent basis.

Know that if a Libra wants you in their life, it’s because they’re in it for the long haul.

If you’re in a relationship with a Libra, expect to be pampered and put on a pedestal.

Like everything else in their lives, they will go the extra mile to make you feel loved and adored.

6. Libras are fair.

Represented by the Scales in astrology, Libras can handle extreme heat and cold.

Fairness is a trait that contributes to a Libra’s remarkable kindness.

Libras enjoy balance and treat their relationships accordingly. They are firm believers in treating others the way they want to be treated.

A Libra will never hesitate to make compromises for you as long as you’re doing the same in return.

This mindset makes their friendships and romantic relationships thrive. Another core value of Libras is peace and harmony.

They don’t like to ruffle feathers and don’t enjoy being ruffled in return.

7. Libras keep the peace.

A Libra will always try to keep the peace in the relationship and ensure that things flow smoothly.

They value harmony and will enjoy working with you to sort through problems and meet your goals.

Remember that while they enjoy keeping the peace, they won’t let you walk all over them.

They will seek out people that they’re sure won’t mistake their kindness for weakness.

The only downfall of a Libras kindness is that they can put too much pressure on themselves to make their loved ones happy.

Even the image of Venus is used to represent law and justice because of her peaceful personality traits that we all are encouraged to exhibit, too.

8. They want to make others happy.

Regardless of what it takes, a Libra will only be happy if you’re happy.

This means that they will stop at nothing to make you smile, even when it’s taxing to their mental health.

Even if the Libra in your life seems fine, make sure to check in on them and see if they’re alright.

Libras aren’t the best at voicing their feelings when something is wrong, especially if they think it will take away from your happiness.

Now that you know why Libras are so kind, be sure to be just as kind and loving to them in return.
