Libra

The sign of the scales. As you might guess, Librans need balance and stability in their lives to be completely happy. When something gets out of balance, it is upsetting to them. Librans care what other people think of them. Librans have a great sense of humor when things are going right in their world. Librans want to settle down, they invite marriage, kids and a harmonious life.
