Libra and Scorpio Compatibility Overview

  1. Libra and Scorpio are moderately compatible and balance each other out. Passionate, bold Scorpio can’t get enough of Libra’s charming, outgoing personality, and Libra is instantly attracted to Scorpio’s aura of mystery and fearlessness. However, Libra can be a major flirt and Scorpio tends to get jealous. Set boundaries early on to avoid these pitfalls, and you can make an amazing couple.[1]

Libra And Scorpio Sexual Compatibility

  1. These two signs are an excellent match in the bedroom. Scorpio, the most sexual of all the signs, needs a good fit for their fiery, sensual desires.[2] Libra doesn’t disappoint, either—they're a romantic who loves to have fun and please their partner, so these two signs have great sexual chemistry. Scorpio gives Libra the appreciation and adoration they crave in the bedroom, and Libra gives Scorpio the space and acceptance they need to explore their fantasies.[3]
    • Scorpio and Libra are often adventurous sexually. Libra won’t judge Scorpio for wanting to try something new, and these two signs may find themselves taking their sexual experiences to new heights.

Libra and Scorpio Emotional Compatibility

  1. When it comes to emotions, Libra and Scorpio are polar opposites. Libra tends to intellectualize how they’re feeling. It’s how they understand their emotions. Then there’s moody, brooding Scorpio, who feels their emotions deep within their body.[4] Because these two signs experience emotions so differently, they may struggle to understand each other on an emotional level, which can lead to conflict.
    • Scorpio’s dark moods and deep, emotional well may confuse Libra, who prioritizes balance and peace above all else.
    • On the other hand, Scorpio may feel that Libra doesn’t care as deeply about the relationship as they do, even if that’s not true.
    • To make the relationship work, Libra should try to be understanding when Scorpio is moody and deep in their feelings. Scorpio, on the other hand, should be patient and give Libra time to open up emotionally on their own.

Libra and Scorpio Trust Compatibility

  1. Building trust won’t be easy for these two signs, but it’s not impossible. It might feel like love at first sight when Libra and Scorpio meet, but the road to a healthy relationship founded on trust can be a rocky one for these two signs. Libra’s love of attention and validation from others can trigger Scorpio’s possessive, jealous side, while Scorpio may have a hard time trusting Libra with others.[5]
    • In Scorpio’s perfect world, they would have Libra all to themselves. That’s going to be a hard pill for Libra to swallow since they’re extroverted and love to put themselves out there.
    • For the relationship to work, Scorpio and Libra need to meet somewhere in the middle. If Scorpio can control their jealous tendencies (at least as much as possible for this sign) and Libra can rein in their flirting, trust may start to develop.

Libra and Scorpio Compatibility: The Bottom Line

  1. It’s not a perfect match, but this relationship can be fun and exciting. Libra and Scorpio may struggle to develop trust and connect on an emotional level, but that doesn’t mean they won’t have fun trying. Scorpio’s passion and intensity can provide Libra with the love and validation they need, while Libra’s optimism can balance out Scorpio’s moodier disposition. If these two signs aren’t careful though, their relationship can veer off course. With that said, if the stars are aligned, Libra and Scorpio might find that they’re a great match.

    Expert Answer
    Scorpios are often misunderstood because they're very emotional and they can get attached quite easily. Scorpio is a water sign that's also fixed; so, when their emotions are strong, they can get quite attached to those emotions as a fixed sign might.
