Day 7 - The Libra

Happy Mother's Day to everyone!

And Happy Birthday to my Mom!!

Anyway, I guess I'm still continuing...

So, Zodiac- I'm a Libra (yay?)  Since I didn't just want to write down my horoscope and comment- I decided to find a website that listed the 'gist' of it.

Libra in a Nutshell:

Libras are the diplomat of the zodiac. They are able to put themselves in other's shoes and see things through another person's point of view. They are the ones that always want to make things right and have balance and harmony in their life, their surroundings and the lives of the people close to them. They have captivating charm, elegant taste and they are easy to like due to their eager-to-please, easygoing nature. In return for a Libra's amazing ability to be a good listener, sooth and calm people, they expect admiration. Libras will gather a group of people, everyone will become friends then the Libra will be in the center of the group. They like the attention and the admiration for the people that they have brought together. Libras are very intelligent, they often hide this inside their easygoing exterior. They express their intelligence through creativity, most are involved in some sort of artistic or creative pursuit. Many people overlook just how intelligent a Libra actually is. When others see a Libras wide range of interests and hobbies, their intelligence and creativity is more then obvious. Libras love variety and different situations. They welcome change. Libras love luxury. They will spend lots of money and surround themselves with beautiful things and they seem to be constantly fussing over their appearance. They love anything upscale and classy. Libras work hard to please others, this they do an others find them incredibly captivating. http://zodiac-signs-astrology.com/zodiac-signs/libra.htm

The page was incredibly long.  I felt like taking it apart piece by piece and agreeing or disagreeing with each part.  Oddly, that's not what Libras like to do.  I'm supposed to be lazy but have terrific ideas.  So there ya go for someone out there!

~Ok, I do like to keep the peace, but I am also a fairly dramatic person.  I've been known to blow little things WAY out of proportion.

 "They have captivating charm, elegant taste and they are easy to like due to their eager-to-please, easygoing nature."
~ I'd like to think I have good taste- I don't have like gay-best-friend EPIC taste, but I'd like to think that I can look good when I want to.

~ I like to be in the spotlight (when I've had proper time to prepare) and love to be the center of attention (admiration), but I don't take compliments well.  I don't know why...

~ I'm not always easy-going.  If I have a schedule, we need to keep as close as possible to it so everything gets done!  I like to think I'm creative and especially come up with creative solutions, but I do admit I absolutely have a wide arrange of interests and hobbies.

 Libras love variety and different situations.
~ This is true.

 They welcome change.
~ This is false.

 Libras love luxury.
~ Yes *sigh*, I like the idea of luxury but not the idea of working uber hard for it...

 They will spend lots of money and surround themselves with beautiful things and they seem to be constantly fussing over their appearance.
~ I will spend lots of money to: do what you can't, have something you don't, and/or do something I want to do that you won't.  While I like to look nice and unless it is a major event, I don't really care what I look like.  As long as it matches (or mismatches in it's own matching way), then I'm all for it.

 They love anything upscale and classy. Libras work hard to please others, this they do and others find them incredibly captivating
~ Sometimes.  I don't have this one completely figured out yet.  I LOVE the upscale and classy, but I don't think everyone finds me incredibly captivating...

What it's Like to Date a Libra Woman:

Libra woman is enchanting and charming, she is the master of the art of seduction. The environment is important for Libra, make sure the first date is somewhere classy and elegant with posh surroundings, such as lunch at an elegant bistro then a walk along the tree lined pathways of a ravine in the summertime with the flowers blooming. Libra will feel at peace and love it. Give her compliments and tell her how much she is appreciated. She may reply bashfully but with each compliments, the radiant glow inside her will shine brighter and brighter. Once the initial seduction is over with and the relationship has become more stable, she will stop her sweet seductive ways, not because she has completely lost interest, but it is because she is lazy in love. She may need a few days away without you, this is like pressing the reset button on the relationship. Be romantic with her and she won't lose interest. Be dramatically romantic, sweet love notes tucked in her pocket, flowers, these things bring great joy to the Libra woman and they make her feel special, which is essentially important to the Libra woman.

I only included this part because THIS. IS. ME.
