The need to protect

I've read on many sites and forums that Libra's tend to hate confrontation of any sort. I, however, don't fear it or back down if I am pissed off. I have a strong sense of wanting to protect those I care about. If someone even looks at someone I care for in the wrong way, or says something offensive or hurtful, I am the first to jump in and defend them. It is an intrinsic need to protect those I care for.
Are any other leebs like this? Is it because of my scorp placements? Aries moon?

Sounds like its another placement. I am Libra Sun, Capricorn Rising, Aries Moon. Where are your Scorp placements?

I have a scorp rising, scorp mars and scorp pluto
Aquarius saturn
Libra mercury

Rising Sign is how other people see you. So not that.

I would say its the Pluto Scorp.. Pluto needs to be in Control.

I am a protector by nature and hate to see people being bullied or treated unfairly. It actually affects me more than when its done to me personally.

Yes! Exactly this. I feel a profound sense of needing to protect others that are being bullied or cornered in any way. Even if it is someone I don't know too well, I'll feel a natural urge to jump in or defend them.

my man is like that too, he's libra sun and venus, scorpio rising and has a Taurus moon but he is very quick and good at setting it all - right then and there - he is not afraid of anything or anybody

Yes!
I stand up for my family/friends without even thinking. It just comes natural to me. My brother used to get picked on a lot when we were young. Out of my sisters, I was the one who helped him and made it stop.

*I'm nice to most people and soft spoken so it's usually a shock for most when they see this side of me.

Yeah I definitely hate unnecessary confrontation, but hurt someone I love, and you'll see a different side of me. I don't care what you look like or who you are.

it could be scorp. i am like that for those i love. i have scorp venus (uranus and north node) but then again, libras are all about justice. i think most of us will take a stand if we sense unfairness. i don't fear confrontation, i just prefer it not to get to that point.

but hang on, doesn't everyone have the urge to protect their own?

When pissed off, Libras practically turn into Aries, their opposing sign.

I agree.

I am a good advocate. I have always been one to step out of the crowd and stand up to it … often with my stomach in my throat. I live by speak the truth even if your voice shakes.

I do see this as a Libra trait. We are the sign of justice and the sign of military leadership and strategy. Scorpio is the sign of rebirth. The get revenge when you aren’t looking but a Libra will take a stand in a bold way.

Good question

Im a Libra with a Libra mars. Don't always buy in to the shit astrologers write its just notions. I FOUGHT for my sister multiple times and grew up being a little spartan. I'm more aggressive and rugged than what they describe us as.

We don't like unnecessary shit and will avoid it but will fight and fight hard if we deem it necessary. I do have Avery soft side that I only show my family and my woman but to this real world I'm stiff as hell so don't buy in to that shit. We follow morals and values so we can overlook little shit but we can turn over the apple cart and kick the apples away that you reaching for

Damn straight!

My LIbra grandmother was weak and wimpy like that; but I will fight and fight and confront!
