Can someone help me understand myself better? or rather my "astrological" self even.

Everything I read online about Libras doesn't resonate with me at all.

Apparently us Libras are supposed to be "social butterflies." I'm not a social butterfly at all. If I'm put in a situation where I have to be social I obviously will, although if I could have it my way - I'd be alone, or with a small group (say 3-4 people) or just with one other person whose company I enjoy. I even get excited when plans get cancelled because that means I don't have to go out. Not wanting to go out isn't even out of laziness either - I simply just enjoy being alone and not having to deal with people a lot of times.

I often find myself mirroring people as well. Giving them what they give me. Although I do tend to still pull away when I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed.

I dont have a problem making an immediate decision, though I do take a long time (and tend to go even more quiet in the process) with bigger decisions.

Can someone tell me what's wrong with me? I'm 22 years old and I go to school.

Many Libras are quiet and introverted just as you are. The characteristics you've listed above resonate with many if not most Libra suns.

I haven't read anything like that. Everything I've been coming across mentions Libras needing to be out and about, social, and in relationships, etc...

My ex always cancelled plans or ignored ppl calls just to not go out the house. But she had alot of friends and was a ppl person but preferred her privacy and chill at home time.

Sun - Libra
Moon - Pieces
Mercury - Libra
Venus - Virgo
Mars - Scorpio
Pluto - Scorpio

do you think you can give me a general reading? I'm currently reading bits of each to try to understand myself better.

That makes me feel so much better knowing I'm not alone! I was really curious as to why I feel so introverted yet everything I was reading online said I could be anything but. I'm really new to astrology so I'm still learning about this stuff. I also haven't met a ton of other Libras. Or maybe I have but just didn't pay any mind to it. I'm definitely going to do more research!

Yea could be the virgo your a cusp too so you may relate more to the virgo and thats ok too i like virgos and libras either way. I read somewhere that sometimes looking at the sign before you younfind similarities etc and ive seen this in ppl. Libras similar to virgos virgos similar to leos leos similar to cancer etc etc....esp the cusp ppl. And me my libra ex she was violent and abusive we were together for 5 yrs. I have libra friends for over 13 yrs and i was dating another libra who was born 927 she was quiet like you very and she has alot of water in her chart. Very private and to me it came off as if she didnt like me. Then there was the ex issue etc. I feel with her she was a good person. But bad timing which in turn she wasnt that into me because when we met she just broke up with the ex. I wanted a rel she was trying take it slow so it just mess everything up and was onesided....meaning i was doing everything thats not her fault though etc.

Apparently I should be light and fluffy, but I've never been that way even as a child. You could look at my childhood pics and tell I was serious. I'm definitely not indecisive or a people pleaser. I stay to myself. A long time ago, I created a thread discussing how I felt Libra characteristics seemed outdated and unrealistic in the modern world. It is not that I hate Libra descriptions, but it is incredibly difficult for me to relate or live by given the life goals I've created for myself. I don't mind saying NO, I don't get lonely by myself, I don't 'crave partnership'. The craving partnership one really irks me because most people on here, upon examination, obsess about being in relationships.

Reading this was so refreshing. I've been reading more and more about Libra traits and I just for the life of me cannot agree with half if not most. I guess I should factor in my upbringing (pretty rough - always surrounded by negativity and family drama) perhaps that's why I like to be alone? I moved out once I turned 20. I absolutely don't crave partnership in the least. If I'm dating someone great, if not - even better. Perhaps I'm still growing and maybe I'll grow out of it - but I feel as though being in relationships bring out the worst in me. Does this make any sense to you? have you experienced this? I tend to try to keep my distance when I am seeing someone new so things don't get too heavy too fast. This sounds incredibly self centred but literally every man I've ever been with has told me they love me and was in love with me within only days or weeks of knowing me. And it's always men who claim they don't fall in love, or don't fall in love easily, etc... I can really come across aloof at times but underneath there's usually always a fire. I can say for a fact the one thing I am indecisive about without a doubt is relationships. I'm still so confused.

I was born on 923 only twelve hours into libra season and to be honest I relate way more to Virgo traits. Some libra traits but not really. But I'm a libra nonetheless and I dunt relate to anything I read.

That's funny - I feel as though I relate more to Scorpios. I've been reading more and more and today discovered that I have a Scorpio psyche and Capricorn Eros.

Well yeah if you've had a chaotic upbringing it's a solid cause for being introverted. Usually you would look at your experiences in the 1st-4th House as a starter for looking introspectively.

1st -4th house in what exactly? I'm so sorry for my ignorance I'm still trying to learn more about all of this.

"late reply",
But there's absolutely nothing wrong with you. What that says about astrology is it's not always correct, and in some cases, not even close.
We have almost the exact same placements except that my moon is in Virgo and my Mercury is in Scorpio. In fact,I have a lot of placements in Scorpio. I am the same way and always have been. I'm a friendly person by nature, but I've never had a lot of friends and have always preferred very small groups. I'm too claustrophobic to be around large groups of people at one time anyways...lol. However, I identify very much so with my Scorpion traits.

That's what kinda got me into learning about astrology because I was trying to figure out why I wasn't like what most people say about Libran's.
A lot of folks think that I am a very complicated person but I never thought that way about myself. Then I had to take a long hard look in the mirror and realize that it must be something if THAT MANY people keep saying the same thing. I have some of the Libra traits to a"T", but I seem to identify more with my Scorpio and Virgo traits.It's a journey, but I'm still trying to understand it all.
