Hi All, I was seeing a Libra for a few months - very easy and fun, we could talk for hours and I really enjoyed his company, we seemed to connect so well (i'm a Leo). After a lot of thought I started to let my walls down a couple of weeks ago and feel closer to him but still with a few bricks in place. He came around on Thursday night and was acting really strange and quite sarcastic at times - but then back to our normal chats, so i was getting confused and thrown off now and again. He ended up telling me he read a conversation he saw me having with some friends on facebook (which was fairly innocent but did refer to a favour a guy did for me, whom I didn't know). He admitted he felt jealous. I'm not used to Jealously, I was married for 15 years to a guy who wouldn't have batted an eyelid if another guy had stripped me naked and had sex with me (bit of an exaggeration 🙂).

When we went to bed that night he was a bit different too, and seemed to be aggresive. Afterwards that night he said we should take a break for a while, I told him I didn't want that and that also I didn't do breaks, it was either on or off, he left and the next day I told him I thought he was judging me based on his ex's behaviour (she had an affair which led to the breakdown of their marriage) and not on my own standards or history and asked him did he want us to stop seeing each other, he said for a little while. I didn't remind him that I had said I don't do breaks. Anyway, we've left it at that, i didn't confirm that a break was or wasn't acceptable to me as I had already made myself clear on what I think of breaks. I am missing him but in my head its over now and that's that.

Is this jealousy - I thought I read that Libra's don't get jealous - but based on his attitude that night I think he is very angry with me. I'm curious now to understand what's up with him so if you have any thoughts I'd be interested to read. He's Libra Sun / Moon / Venus btw if that helps.

I would look for Scorpio influence in his chart...

I hide it very well but I am very jealous and possesive

Reasons for Libra Jealousy

If the ascendant is in Scorpio, your Libran partner will be even more sexy and charming than the average Libra, but with the Scorpio gift for concealment. He will keep part of his true nature hidden, and you may be shocked when he suddenly lashes out.


Mercury in Scorpio means the mind is affected by Scorpio's deep passions, and you will not always know what your Libran partner is thinking. With Mercury in Scorpio, there will be a tendency to be secretive and brooding and to dwell on every small hurt as if it were a huge betrayal. While the Libra with Mercury in Scorpio may not actually be unfaithful, he will certainly have a roving eye!


Venus in Scorpio has a different effect, depending on whether the partner is male or female. The female Libra will display strong Scorpio characteristics in dress and manner. She will be a sexy woman who attracts all eyes and secretly glories in it. While she will be a very exciting sex partner, she will be very possessive and obsessive about her partner's fidelity. The male Libra with Venus in Scorpio will be attracted to strong, sexy women, but will boil with jealousy because other men are attracted to her. While he is a good lover, he tends to brood over possible unfaithfulness. Both male and female Libras will want to control their lover, dictating everything from your hair to your shoes. They will react badly if you wear gifts from another and may even forbid you to accept gifts from anyone but close relatives.


The Moon in Scorpio has a very intense effect upon the affable Libra. A male with the Moon in Scorpio likely has a very intense relationship with his mother and will want to possess a lover body and soul. He will keep his emotions hidden but will exercise tight control over his domestic circumstances. The Libran woman with the Moon in Scorpio will be a sexual powerhouse in the bedroom and a control freak everywhere else. She is jealous and possessive of everything she thinks of as hers alone, and this includes her partner. Both genders have deeply intense passions and emotions and will exact vengeance if their partner strays.

My 2 cents- he has issues, and I'd call his bluff and be gone...
That being said, it is really only worth the 2 cents, and if you really like this guy I hope it all works out for y'all! 🙂

@nina
VERY informative!! You just taught me bunches, in general as well as about myself. Spot on about my scorp placements- thank you for the insight! So much to learn, so little time...

Messed up the last one!

When he said we should take a break I didn't reply to him and he got in touch this morning apologising for the upset caused - so he was back in less than 24 hours - we've made up now. He does have trust and insecurity issues because of his ex, which I know about so i should be mindful of that when telling him stuff - i'm really just not used to dealing with even a inch of jealousy. However i shant put up with another episode if it is over something trivial. Having said that I do like him and when I let my guard down realised I liked him a lot more than I initially thought - that Libra charm dimpling all over me 🙂

Actually I don't know his ascendant as he doesn't have his birth time - so that could be a possibility.

Well, I am libra sun, but my venus is in scorp, so I can be jealous if I'm with someone who is a little shady. Usually my instincts kind of let me know if they are not really
trustworthy, then when I foolishly try to ignore those instincts (which was almost always when I was younger, but I have learned to listen them much more over the last few years) it comes out as me acting suspicious and jealous. I do not think that jealousy is a very libra trait, but honestly I am FAR from an expert on astrology, just learning! How long has it been since his ex and he broke up? It may have much to do with this as you mentioned...

I think it's awesome the way you handled it, perfection! And he obviously was very much bluffing since he was back so quickly. Perhaps it will work out to have been a good thing, as maybe it has shown both of you that you really do want this more than you knew before the hiccup! I hope it is smooth, wonderful, blissful sailing with y'all from now on!! 🙂

Everybody gets jealous. It's how they manifest it that matters.

He was attracted by your beauty, but ultimately your chart is way too emotional for his airy chart. He will try to connect with females with Leo and Cancer influence (and that's you) but he's not truly an emotional person, just comes off that way. It is quite a miss here.



Thanks Spica - your probably right, should give it a miss i think - he is still acting weird, feel like i'm being punished for someones elses morals - i had enough punishment for imagined slights from my pisces ex without entering into another one of those relationships 😢 - I am a fairly emotional person alright, also his ex was a Leo, he definetly attracted to us girls god love him 🙂

Hey sillyfilly, he's broken up with his ex a year now - not really long enough I know. He did seem to be bluffing, but maybe I let him back to quickly cause he's still acting strange.

I'm a Libra sun Pisces moon??_Venus in Leo. I do get jealous but its rare, and when it does happen it goes away as quickly as it came so long as my partner handles the situation accordingly and correctly. If im jealous I really do hate to let my partner see it because I think it shows insecurity and weakness, lack of self-confidence, but at the end of the day I am human and it does happen. So when it does I expect my partner to not only reassure me of my position in their life, but show me as well. In other words they just need to butter me up, baby me a little, reassure me of my importance in their life, and how no other woman comes before me no matter what, and im back to my charming bubbly self. Depending on what they did to make me jealous the situation may require a little action, like planning something special to show me they mean what they say. If were a comment I read on facebook I'd probably have him put up a pic of us hugged up, with "in a relationship w/me" as his relationship status. That should make it even. lol

he seems to be back to normal now. I won't be babying him though, if I had done something wrong I'd put my hands up, apologise and make it up to him, but I didn't.

I have venus in Leo too Alibra 🙂 I do get a little jealous myself but It would have to be something big to bring it out, other than that it just makes me have an extremely high sex and love drive 🙂

I dunno, I think they get mardy if they haven't seen their significant other in a while and they don't get loads of attention, outside of that it's no biggy so it's not really jealousy in that sense.




Not according to my experiences, but then again im not a libra so maybe you are right! I have a libra friend who is also very jealous and possessive just like my libra x's. I have to admit that sometimes alittle jealousy is sexy but not to the point where they start getting red and their eyes turn watery

I used to get quite jealous when I was younger. I do still have jealous tendencies at times but I am able to dismiss/control them because jealousy is an absolutely WORTHLESS and DESTRUCTIVE emotion. When I was reading the OP, I was thinking about how I've done/said similar things and what was going through his mind.

I'd be willing to bet (even guarantee) that bringing up that Facebook exchange was something that had been eating at him, not just a passing thought or a pursuit for clarity. The conclusions he'd already come to in his own head probably still had their claws in his brain even with a perfectly good and logical explanation. I'd dare even say that it was those thoughts between the time he read that FB exchange and the time you two talked about it that caused him to want a "break." From my own experiences, I'd say it wasn't due to you at all and was a conclusion he arrived at because those feelings and jealous speculation didn't sit well with him, so it's just best to keep those feelings from happening by removing himself from the situation completely.

As a Libra male myself, I just smirk when I read all the stuff about the infamous disappearing acts because they're just so, so true. Even if it's just for a few days to recalibrate and readjust. The distance can often incite a sense of objectivity and a chance to reevaluate things.
