Moon in the signs - Libra

The art of accommodating and constant readjustment

The Moon in Libra has the emotional need for balanced and harmonic relationships. Someone with this placement will be happy to adjust, adapt, accommodate and if necessary, re-arrange. The Moon in Libra is the deal-maker, the mediator and the diplomat that allows him to carve out a sense of belonging and security – at least on the surface.

However, the Libra Moon’s need and ability to compromise for the sake of harmonic relationships comes at a price. Conflicts never truly get resolved as someone with this placement would rather swallow their own opinion than cause controversy (much of course depends on the sign Venus and Mercury are in). This behaviour means that any problems in relationship keep on growing underneath the surface, all in the name of peace and harmony. For Libra Moons, this often also means that after some time of peace and quiet, similar problems are likely to resurface until they are addressed. Facing conflict is one of the key learnings for Libra Moons without being upset.

The Moon also rules the home, so someone with this placement is also more than happy to keep re-decorating, re-adjusting furniture and interiors. More often than not, the home is beautifully decorated – always with an eye to the latest trends.

Katy Perry

Katy Perry has her Moon in Libra in the first house together with her Sun, Saturn, Pluto and Mercury. So many planets in the first house make for a personality full of ‘umph’ and while she will be striving for harmony always, her Moon is conjunct Saturn so her emotional need is tied to following the rules or even establishing them. Emotionally, she may also be stricter on herself than the Libra Moon in itself indicates.
