Pisces man winning over a Libra woman

Joke of the Day
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.

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
