What do Pisces and Libra have in common?
Scales!
Can Pisces win over a Libra? Other than scales, what else do they have in common? Venus — the planet of love, art and relationships — is dignified in Libra and exalted in Pisces. The goddess is happy in both signs.
The Libra Woman
A woman with her Sun in Libra is — more than any other sign — attracted to partnership. Not being in one may make her unhappy, because she shines brightest when she is relating to another person. She’s willing to make all sorts of compromises to please her partner, and may even lapse into codependent behavior, putting his needs above her own. Many of her decisions are based on how their outcome will impact others, as she wants to maintain harmony with her loved ones. And, sometimes she goes to great lengths to avoid being seen as the “bad guy.”
The Pisces Man
Sacrifice, of course, is familiar to the Pisces man. The last sign of the zodiac is ruled by Neptune, the planet that dissolves boundaries in the quest for enlightenment — or at least a good buzz. Pisces is the sign of the monk and the alcoholic — those lost (or developed) souls who choose retreat, or who withdraw into fantasy because they can’t tolerate reality well enough to function. The Pisces man’s romantic quest is to transcend separation and to love All That Is. He can reach this state through the help of meditation, drugs … or even a good old-fashioned relationship. But for him, a loving connection is a means to an End, a way to move from self to Self.
Unfortunately, all this spiritual talk is whimsy. More often than not, the Pisces man is more martyr than mystic, a spineless schlump who suffers on the cross of victimhood, hoping to evoke guilt and pity in others for his inability to do anything more useful than dream.
Put ‘Em Together
So, can these two get it on? Although they both worship at the altar of Love, they go about relating in different ways. Libra is more sociable than easily overstimulated Pisces, who prefers take-out sushi over frequent dinner parties. And Pisces may feel disappointed that Libra is more interested in putting on a Good Face than doing Good Works.
However, they do have a meeting ground. The Pisces man can win over Libra with Art. Although not mystically-inclined, she does have an eye for beauty, and can appreciate a well-designed table or a graceful ballad. One of Pisces’ greatest talents is his ability to draw on his Muse to create inspired songs, poems or paintings. His compositions express what cannot be articulated by words alone, and although they draw on emotions that are not her natural language, the Libra woman will get weak at the knees knowing that his song is about her.

About Jeffrey Kishner
I’ve had a crush on a Pisces celebrity for the longest time (for 12 years! before he was actually “famous” even) and he is now married to his ex co-star, a Libra woman.
The first time I saw a love scene between them, my dreams of becoming Mrs. Pisces Guy came crashing down. She was married to someone else when they first started working together on one of my favorite TV shows. Now they have two children and seem very happy together. I’m really torn between being happy for them (it’s nice to see an in-love couple) and being disappointed that I can no longer dream and hope that one day…So bittersweet for me. He seems to be such a nice guy and a great daddy (just like I always imagined). *sniffle* I’m going to be indulging myself in a woulda shoulda coulda session when I see him perform in a play in two weeks, though. 
If a Pisces man is not making a move, does it make sense to ask him out? Or will he get scared?
Make the move, as a Pisces man I’ve always liked when women handle the initial stage of the relationship mostly because when I do intend to ask a woman out it is preceeded by weeks of daydreams that take the whole relationship (if there is one) to such a peak of expectations it’s almost difficult to make a move at all, and I’ve got Aries and Scorpio prominent in my chart. Many pisceans I know don’t make moves, period. They just get to know the person they like, have conversations and flirt and then either A: have a moment and make the move (alcohol, tends to be involved here– a pisces friend of mine refered to it as “confidence juice”) or B: lose interest and drift away. Pisces are mutable they don’t initiate as much as react– that and even if he doesn’t see you that way, he will afterwards and like most pisces he’ll probably agree out of curiosity and unwillingness to say “no”
I’ve read a few of these articles and so far they have been completely off the mark. (I am a Libra woman starting a family with a Pisces man. At the risk of being the ‘flame’ commenter, I have to say you have only a partial grasp on the zodiac signs and what someone born under each one ‘acts like’. I suggest a deeper research session.
Your comment arrives on the day of Mars and Saturn’s exact conjunction in critical Virgo, which happens to be conjoining my Ascendant, my public face. So I should not be surprised to hear your feedback at this time.
Either I have an only partial grasp of the zodiac signs (and who, by the way, has a complete understanding of an archetype? How presumptuous!) and my repeat visitors are deluded, or you are failing to understand that a description of Sun signs can only touch upon an aspect of your Libra-Pisces relationship. (There may be other alternatives that I am failing to generate.)
Why don’t you report back with a description of your relationship and links to your respective natal charts. I will be the first to admit that any Sun sign article is going to be inaccurate when you apply it to a real couple, because each individual has several natal planets that interact with the other partner’s chart. And I understand that when I write Sun sign astrology for a general audience, I take the risk of receiving comments such as yours.
Yet I take offense at your suggestion that I undertake a “deeper research session.” If you believe my interpretations are completely off the mark, go somewhere else.
Only someone with a base knowledge of astrology would suggest “deeper research” on sun astrology.
The only “deeper research” that is required is OF the commenter, to her and her partners personal chart and the synastry between the two.
I hope that commenter and her partner have a successful family, and suggest she looks further into astrology beyond sun signs so that she can have a truly enriching experience.
I can suggest a good way to get started is a professional chart interpretation.
ps- Jeffrey…how much you wanna bet the commenter has Virgo in her chart being stimulated by the conjunction? Two sides of the same coin?!? lolz.
Put 2 Virgos in the same room…
Ahhh, I have to agree with this. I’m a libra women in a relationship with a Pisces man going on 4 months now.
From personal experience and readings on other sites I have to agree that the Pisces emotional instability can be rather hard to cope with sometimes. And unlike Gemini who I typically am greatly charmed by, they don’t communicate well. Sometimes this is aggravating, but understandable.
The last part is so true, what Pisces lack for in words they make up for in the arts! Communication is one of my biggest needs in a relationship, and even if he can only express himself well through poetry, the arts are total brownie points for me!
Your writings describe my story to a “T” had i this information perhaps I would have thought about marriage alooooooot harder.
My pisces husband is an emotional basketcase- he courted me with poetry. It was wonderful. We were passionate with eachother. Then marriage- when the poetry stopped and we had to speak in real terms about home, finances and all the rest he would retreat or make noise then retreat and sacrifice himself. He could not express himself. His desire to become a martyr annoys me. Now after 4 years of marriage we are on the brink of divorce- well we are seperated and though he requested the divorce he fails to act on it. I have found one way to communicate-his photography- but even this he misses the signal with- loves my images but feels sad and undeserved. Its tooooooo much toooo much to take. Now I cannot even flirt without emotional drama.
Still he makes himself available for most of my needs and hates when I say I don’t need you anymore. I was wondering if he needs Psychological help but now I understand better.
Perfect.
Im a libra woman and have been with a pisces man for 3 years now, hes a musician and our realtionship has had its ups and downs, sometimes I find him selfish and I do put him above myself. He shuts down sometimes and cannot express his emotions. Drives me crazy.
I also find that he is so realistic, to the point where his logic is hurtful.
He also doesnt belive in marrige.. is that a pisces trait or just my touring musician’s way of telling me to get out so he doesnt have too?
I find this to be pretty fitting to my case, at least. Though some things differ. I’m a libra woman, married to a pisces man. In the beginning of our relationship, it was great, and we did have extreme up and downs, but it was all totally worth it. We both grew a lot, mentally, throughout this relationship. I used to be the type of gal who went out drinking a lot, and he wasn’t much of a drinker. After some disputes, we found our happy medium, and it works lovely. But I guess I’m a weird libra? I’m not fond of social gatherings much, I just like to go out with close friends every now and then, but i dislike really crowded rooms, while I’ve read that libras are social butterflies, I’m more of a shy one? Though I know it has to do with other factors for those variables to change…but I’ve found the best way to cope with my pisces man’s dream-land factor (which is all true) is constant communication. We share so much with one another, and we have always found the way to express what we feel and come to terms. Of course, it’s not perfect. Fights happen. But we always find a way to talk things through. Dedication and patience is the key, and lots of love
Other than that, I feel very comfortable with my pisces man. Three years of marriage going strong, with a baby on the way.
Oh, and I was also wooed with poetry, songs (he’s a musician), and romantic gestures! lol! Gotta love that in a pisces man
And I’m not that romantic per se, just sensitive and gentle. And I also did make the first move for us to be together….but it turned out perfect.
I am utterly, head over heels in-love with a pisces man. I have been an advant reader of astrology since I was a teenager in high-school, I can literally remember someone’s sign if asked once as opposed to their name if asked several times. Haha. And most of what I read about a pisces man and a libra woman, I don’t like what I hear. I hate when thing are said: pisces and Libra won’t make It in a long-term relationship. This aggrevates me bc I am truly a hopeless romantic. Its in my nature to always hope, and want the best possible scenario to work out. But, it also motivates me to defy the odds and just go for what I feel. Am I setting myself up for failure? undeniably God is the ultimate authority, and I find my sanity in prayer (I have been praying like a mad woman lately). It has complications that any relationship faces, but I am willing to with stand the test of time, and stick by my man. I love everything about him (so far) it’s just ineffable how this man truly makes me feel. We just click. (Happy face) idk if it helps, but I have a cancer rising. This Libra woman is IN-LOVE, & I won’t let any amount of scrutiny stand in the way of that! Some ppl think its crazy that I can fall for a man almost 13yrs age difference. But not me. I just think its fate. Glorious fate! God is Good all the time! I am leaving this in his hands.
Hope everything turns out well, lass!
I love my pisces man. Even though he may get on my nerves at times with his non communication. We both have learned to cope with each other’s personalities. He’s getting better I beleive in him.
I am a pisces man who has just begun seeing a libra woman, we are very very passionate.
She seems to talk alot….and i mean alot, and im rather reserved but i always listen to what she has to say and enjoy her quirkyness. im just not sure about where its all going, What do you guys think? i can answer questions if required.
Hey Cliff…
I am a libra woman and yeah we do talk a lot and I know that you pisces men don’t have the same gift for gab. I am in love with a pisces man – I find your sensitivity and generosity endearing but us Libra girls need to share and we usually share through communicating. When you guys refuse to talk we take it personal and see it as a form of rejection. Your need for privacy might be hard for your Libra Lady to deal with. I’ve recently ending things with my pisces because of a lack of communication. I was tired of feeling like I was in a one sided relationship. I hope your situation turns out differently. If you really want things to work with this woman let her know with actions that you care. Keep the romance alive and you will keep your libra woman forever.
I was once in a partnership with a pisces man, and every moment that was spent with him was pure magick. He had the most caring heart, beautiful mind, and on the highest spiritual level, we connected. The world was so new and filled with endless possibilities for us. He could always make me giggle and had such a playful spirit and a precious relationship with his inner child. I can’t go a single day without thinking about him. I am so blessed that he came into my life. My perspective now is much different from what it was, I can see the full spectrum, the whole picture. We broke up about 4 years ago, yet it’s like he’s always there with me holding me close.
I’m a libran female and my husband is a pisces… It’s true what they say.. he’s a alcoholic. I’ve been there through thick and thin trying to keep him happy. It does get really old and our relationship is rough at times. But we’ve been married for 5 years now and we still keep it going. He’s not sensitive towards others at all.. only seems to pity himself.. I’m starting to think that’s a pisces for ya!
also I read something above about a pisces man not liking marriage.. not true when My husband and I first met we both fell head over heels in love with eachother.. so much so that he proposed to me only two weeks after we met. lol It was another year before we got married.. but no pisces aren’t afraid to get married.. least not from what I’ve seen.
My Pisces friend was a funny creature, always telling me how he was crazy about me and I was out of his league, he also commented how he just liked me too much to ask me out, now he has several divorces and children everywhere, I wonder if he didnt like those women? LOL
WOOOOOWWWWWWW! there are SOOOOO many women in our situation! omg!!!
I’m just starting to fall in love with the sleepy-head, loving, sensual and romantic Pisces. AGAIN. he’s so different, both naturally and deliberately.
they just don’t know their mortal limits. seriously. I really don’t think that they know they are human. but my being a Libra gets in the way- – the making love, the poetry, the mystical empathy… makes me weak at the knees.
I hope this works. The article didn’t exactly have a happy ending. = [
5 months in and going strong, We have developed such a strong connection that its intense. I write her letters to say how i feel and i mail them to her(even though we see eachother every day), just feels easier to put it on paper and she appreciates it. We both have absolutely no doubt that we are soul mates, So thanks for the advice back in august
Hi I am a libra woman in a relationship with a pisces man. We’ve been together almost 3 years. Its comforting to read some of these comments because now I don’t feel like I’m loosing my mind! I have trust issues so I find it hard to accept that he loves me the way he says he does. I’ve experienced the daydreaming, the lying, the manipulation (which he is never aware of doing!), the “woe is me complex” (which I suffer from too!) but there is something that keeps me in this relationship. I’m a little older than he is and sometimes he comes accross a little childlike when it comes to the everyday responsibilities of life. With my trust issues and his lack of responsibility do I stay to see if he really is my soulmate or do I run for the hills?? According to everything I’ve read we don’t stand a chance! Help! I’m a libra I can’t decide…
Well I’m a libra women and I am currently dating a pisces man and I have experienced some crazy things fromn him and we have only been dating for about 4 months, he is amazing in so many way’s but he constantlt reminds me of my three year old son. He has very childesh ways and I rule the relationship, he is a great guy though but is easyily infleneced by his friends which makes me sick. I have to constantly remind him to share his emotions with me and stop feelings so depressed for no reason at all. He is a liar and i’m a liar so he can’t really get away with lying to me. After we make love I feel that’s the only reason we get closer. I see what happens as time goes on but I will never lay all my eggs in one basket, he is just to non stable for me and is depressed 6 days out of a 7 day week.
my bf is…..
im libra woman
Any Libra women in the beginning stages with a Pisces man and noticing woe is me behavior, selfishness, childishness and emotional instability should do the opposite of what I chose to do: Run for your life!!! Don’t look back! Don’t second guess yourself! Don’t get PREGNANT! Run!
You’ll thank me later.
Well i am in love with a Pisces man and it is been a week and he told me he is married i fall in love with this man from first time onwards and i really are worried about to go on further into the relationship with him because he is married any advise they are separate by town he work far and she also they don’t stay together .?

Well I dont car what u all say. All I want is a happy home, Period!!

I’m a libra woman like many of you and in a long-term relationship with a pisces man. We’ve been together almost 6 years now and though I freely admit to large ups and downs (both from his end and mine), I feel that there is a strong connection beyond great sex and mutual interests (we both love movies, video games, art and writing). I feel that pisces are easily let down by many things in life because their expectations are too high. I tend to be the more dominate one in the relationship but I try not to abuse my power.
Both my pisces and I have agreed to try and make things more even-keel and equal between us. Balance is the keyword to use. I suggest this method for any Libra/Pisces couple. I find that as long as you force communication between the two of you (and mention that it’s for the sake of the relationship), you will find that being honest and open will benefit both parties. Express to your pisces that he should not be afraid to tell you anything because you will tell him anything. Libra’s must remain open minded, non judgmental, supportive, stern, loving and forgiving in order for this relationship. It IS hard, I will not deny that. His spur of the moment depression can be hard to get used to but you, as the other half of the relationship have to metaphorically slap him in the face and make him see that things will and can be better as long as you actively try to make them better. Even if it seems he is not listening, if you make your point strong enough, he will come back later with renewed vigor. So it is possible to make things work.
But it is not the fault of Pisces that he is the way he is. It’s his personality. You either take it or not.
I love my pisces and can see a long future with him so long as we stay open, honest and free. I do agree about the looky loos with other women but I am a bit bisexual, so in some ways, I do not mind, so long as there’s no touching. I have let my pisces know that I believe if there are instances in a relationship in which someone feels the need to cheat, that means there are problems going on; usually problems with each other that need to be addressed. Otherwise, if things are going well, there should be no need. And if one or the other of us feels the need someday to leave permanently, I would hope we would be willing to talk it out first to know why.
Pisces, in my experience are creative, funny, loving, intelligent types who just suffer from a bit too much let down and need a confidence booster to raise them up, that’s all. But I highly suggest NOT marrying one until you’ve been with them long enough to know ALL their quirks, otherwise you might be in for conflicts later on.
I have been reading a lot about libra woman and their talks of Pisces men, but I don’t not see any comments from a Pisces man on a libra woman. Well I have been with a libra woman for the past 5 years during that time we had ups and downs but always stuck by each other we spend almost every waking moment together besides working. We have had 2 beautiful children during these 5 years. I can tell you that there are 2 types of every sign the one that go gets and the one that waits for I am the go get and I always treated my libra woman like a princess and I am generous to her, I can admit sometimes am a bit possessive its just I feel like I know what’s best for our family and future and am prepared to desolve boundaries in order to keep her. She is 4 years younger than I. I can say that reading about our compatibilty has changed my view on her and our relationship for the better I feel I can understand her, sometimes Pisces can lack knowledge as we are the sign of learning and it can take a while for some of us, I learned that my libra woman craves communication and I have been recently over communicating just to keep up with her need for it ever since reading these type of websites. Ok here is the low doesn’t on our compatibility keep in mind to other people a libra woman and Pisces man may seem like the role model couple 10 out of 10 but behind close doors can be a war of the worlds, we are trying to work on our relationship and now after 5 years are trying to avoid arguments as there were many, the Pisces may feel the libra woman is selfish and in considerate to the Pisces, however the libras indecisiveness will keep the Pisces busy trying to convince her to listen to him. I admit I never thought I would end up with a libra but I am truly in love with her and really want to spend the rest of my life with her, her personality and quirkiness is so lovable and she is kind and definitely compromises with me even when sometimes I don’t with her. The Pisces man is a complex sign since it is the last sign of the zodiac it carries the characteristics of all the 11 signs before. All I can say to you libra woman is that we love you the most than any other sign and you are a perfect match to make the Pisces man happy and we will live just to make you happy as you do us. Just please be cautious on words you use as we constantly will question the libras love based on her actions and words, we always believe everything you say to us which makes us quite gullible, for example if you tell us you love us we will believe you, now even right after if you say you hate us we will also believe and seek revenge for a broken or hurt heart, so please don’t be coy with us we hate that, just be straight forward with your patient Pisces man, tell us you love us everyday and how happy you are that we are together that is what motivates us to be caring sweet and kind to our libra, I know I love hearing that my libbers loves me, I wake up and can’t believe I end up with a libra but am happy because she is a truly lovable person and once I Pisces falls in love it’s head over heals or nothing and with a libra woman he will stick like glue wrapped around her finger. For you libra woman out there we strive on support and love, if you can truly put us before you, we will not take you for granted or let you down we will pay you back in greater gestures. I can say the relationship be perfect but when it’s good it’s beautiful and when it’s bad work on it as it is a match made in heaven and something not to be taking for granted. I love you cinthia
I’m a libra woman and I have been dating a pieces man for four months. He is so sensitive and sensual I can’t help but to fall for him. And It’s not easy to win my heart. However, a month ago we had a crazy drunken night where I did some regrettable things (not too bad) and he went from seemingly crazy about me to slowly fadeing away (not hanging out, he dosn’t call, we will text back and forth but much less than we used to) He said he forgave me, but where is he? I miss him so much. All we do is text. I’m being patient because I know pieces needs space to sort out their feelings. I respect that; I need space sometimes to think and do research. He said he would call me this weekend, but is there still going to be something between us? I hope so….. Me Libra Sun, Taurus Moon, Virgo Venus and Mars, Wood Ox.
