Famous Libra-Aquarius Couples:  Kelly Preston and John Travolta, Eleanor Roosevelt and John Travolta, Carole Lombard and Clark Gable, Sarah Ferguson and Prince Andrew

If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times: no one can control an Aquarius man but a Libra woman.   Both are air signs with a somewhat detached view of life that is complementary.   But the real reason a Libra woman can manipulate an Aquarius man is because there is a conservative side to Aquarius, a la Ronald Reagan.   Saturn was the sign’s ancient ruler.  An Aquarius man can be very attracted to a Libra woman because she can be an asset to his career and social standing.  He may be painfully aware of his lack of social skills and he knows a Libra woman will come in very handy.

How to Attract a Libra Woman as an Aquarius Man:   Don’t come on too strong -- or too weak.  The symbol for Libra is the scales.  They like the middle ground.  You should be neither too cold, nor too ardent; neither too fast nor too slow; neither too trendy nor too old-fashioned.  If this sounds too hard, get out now.  The fact is that you attract a Libra into your life to become better balanced, and it's probably worth it to try and rise to the occasion.  If you veer a little bit too far in one direction and then correct, she will be very understanding.  It's not as hard as it seems to win her heart.

How to Attract an Aquarius Man as a Libra Woman:  Libra has the reputation of being a superficial romantic, and while there is some truth to that, many Libra women are astute politicians, great strategists, and natural business partners.  This is the side that you should put forward if you're interested in attracting Mr. Intellectual.  Many Aquarians, delightful as they are, get stuck in outer space and need someone to play Loop-de-Loop with them.  In other words, it's your job to connect the dots in the social world so he has some way of relating to others.  This means that you need to be tolerant of his dating skills, rudimentary though they may be.  Some Aquarians may not be the most polished, but they are not game players, and if he's interested in you at all, you should probably feel quite honored.

Degree of Romance:  I’m sure the Aquarians aren’t even reading this section, so I’ll address Ms. Libra directly:  You can train your Aquarius man quite easily.  He is very amenable to suggestion and does not object to specific commands for your pleasure.  In other words, if you have thought things over -- as you are wont to do -- and you have decided that a pearl necklace is what you would like for Christmas, and that it is within the realm of possibilities for him to buy you one, go ahead and suggest it.  You might even mention a specific one that you saw in XXX store.  Surprisingly enough, he will be grateful for this information, and probably run right out and do it.  That's as much romance as you'll get.

Degree of Passion:   Aquarians can be surprisingly passionate, precisely because they make a point of being so dispassionate.  You will find this amusing, Libra, because of the power it gives you over him.  Use that power wisely because of the tendency that you have to create immediate payback karma.

Degree of Friendship:  These two can be absolutely best friends.  There is a graciousness and mutual respect between them that is very special.  Long after other couples have settled into familiarity and even civility, these two will be extending lovely courtesies to one another as far into the future as you can see.  Libra really brings out the gentleman in the Aquarian and Aquarius has found a lady worthy of his affection, which he does not give freely.  A large part of the plus side of their friendship is that they understand each other's need for space.

Degree of Marriage:  This is an excellent choice for marriage.  Both parties are logical, level-headed, and able to submit.  They share a common viewpoint and are likely to enjoy the same general lifestyle.  Libra is always willing to compromise, and Aquarius extends a lot of freedom in the partnership.  They score high in conflict-resolution skills, which is an essential ingredient in a good long-term relationship.  Aquarius encourages Libra not to keep
score or hold grudges, which is also a plus.

Progression of Relationship:   Things progress logically between the two air signs.  Since both need space, they are not likely to see each other more than once a week to begin with.  The courtship will be courteous and respectful.  The relationship is likely to move forward in mutually agreed upon increments with minimal friction.  Libra discourages the kind of stalking behavior that Aquarians are capable of.  Things go smoothly and logically toward a conclusion that is mutually agreeable.

Sex:   Sex is an important part of a relationship between these two, but equally important are lifestyle choices, viewpoints, and common goals.  This makes for a balanced relationship that enhances the sexuality between them.  Furthermore, they are likely to agree on how often they have sex, thereby minimizing the negotiating that some couples endure.  Libra is famous for the accoutrements of love.  For example, she may introduce the Kama Sutra, for which he will be very grateful because he'll try anything once.  The beginning and ending of their love making is likely to be as polite and mannerly as the other areas of their life together, each being very solicitous of the other's well-being.

When It’s Over:  Aquarius has the upper hand when it comes to the relationship as a whole.  He will not be inclined to end something once he has submitted to it.  Aquarius is fixed sign and these men seldom stray.  However, if he gets a "higher calling," like a pat on the shoulder from his ruler, Uranus, he will out the door like greased lightning never to be enveloped again.  No one knows for sure what comes over an Aquarian, but you know they do march to a distant drummer. Like it or not, when the dance is over, it's time to go home.  Libra may talk him into staying around for a little while longer, but it won't last.  This is one man who will give an ex-partner everything just to be free.
