1. We’re fair

Libra’s symbol is the scales. Everything has to be even. Same-sized slices of cake. Same number of turns. Same amount of time on the swing. Fair’s fair.

2. We make peace

If two friends fall out, call a Libra. We’ll listen to both sides, nod a lot, and somehow everyone ends up sharing a sandwich.

3. We’re ruled by Venus

Venus is the planet of beauty and kindness. Which explains why Libras are so lovely. We didn’t say it. Venus did.

4. We have excellent taste

The right colours. The right cushions. The right shade of pink. A Libra just knows. (It’s flamingo pink. It’s always flamingo pink.)

5. We’re brilliant friends

Libras love company. We’ll remember your favourite things, laugh at your jokes and tell you when there’s spinach in your teeth. Gently.

6. We see the good in everyone

Even Score, when she’s being mysterious. Even Arri, when he’s knocked something over. Everyone has a lovely side. We find it.

7. We’re graceful

I can stand on one leg for hours. I can also stand on the other leg for hours. I just can’t decide which one to start with.

8. We’re great listeners

Tell a Libra your problem and we’ll give it our full attention. Then we’ll give you both sides of it. Then we’ll give you a hug.

9. We love beautiful things

Sunsets, music, art, a nicely laid table. Life’s better when it’s lovely, and a Libra makes sure it is.

10. We take our time

Some people call it indecisive. We call it thorough. The best choices are worth waiting for. Probably. Let me think about it.

Libby says: “That’s ten. I think. Should number seven be number three? No. Leave it. It’s lovely as it is.”
