You’ve just bought your first home, and you hire an interior designer to come in and create the space exactly to your vision. As long as they don’t fire you. You’ve hired three other designers who got so frustrated with your indecisiveness that they ended up telling you they needed to move on to other projects.
It’s not your fault that you have an ever-changing mindset. This is your house, after all, you want this to be perfect! You’re just not entirely sure perfection exists. I mean… What if stone looks better than tile, but you will never know because you picked wood?
This new interior designer walks in, and immediately, you sense something is different. Every word out of their mouth is pulled straight from your brain. It’s like they’re inside your mind, understanding not only your vision but the dilemma that you don’t even know where to start.
Brainstorming with them is effortless–and this torturous process suddenly has new life. This is actually fun! Not only that, but the instant vibe with this person is pulsating between you. They’re finishing your sentences, and you theirs. After an hour, you’ve gotten further than any of the other designers before them.
And now you need a break. A drink, maybe? Or how about that new ice cream place on the corner? Before you can even ask if your designer would like to join you, they suggest taking a pause to grab some ice cream.
Did you just meet your new best friend? Or maybe you just met yourself, Libra, because, as it turns out, your new designer shares not only your sun sign, but also your values, interests, and communication style.
You’d never thought you’d want to hang out with yourself, but that’s because you’re not good at committing to plans in advance because you don’t know how you’ll be feeling when that time comes. But suddenly, just like designing your house, with Libra, making decisions just comes easy.
Libra
As a cardinal sign, Libra, you love trying new things… Even if you have a tendency to bite off more than you can chew. It all ends up working out in the end. That’s kind of your motto with life.
As an air sign, you can be perceived as lofty to people who don’t understand that your indecisiveness is less about being non-committal and more about your deep-rooted desire to find harmony and balance. This is reflected in your symbol, the scales of justice.
You’re also the only sign that has an inanimate object as a symbol, which also correlates with your love for nice things. You’re not materialistic by any means, but you can definitely appreciate the luxury of creating a space filled with value.
You’re a social butterfly, constantly searching for new experiences to share with other people. A natural extrovert, you crave other’s company, and although you won’t admit it, you occasionally struggle with caring what other people think of you. It’s important for you to be perceived as having everything together, part of the reason you enjoy having nice things.
But you’re also a people pleaser, and this can become an issue when it comes to balancing your choices with the choices of those closest to you. Compromise is your middle name.
You take the initiative and the lead in your professional and personal life but often rely on other people to make the final decision. You perceive that as agreeing without realizing that you have less of a say than you think you do.
Your desire to connect with others will sometimes mean you sacrifice your well-being for the sake of being friends with everyone, and you don’t always realize that not all these people in your life actually aren’t your real friends.
Some people will take advantage of your kindness, but the good friends will see your nature as loyal, and you’re the person they’d be lucky to keep around.
