This is all the more true when <a\nhref=\"http:\/\/sasstrology.com\/mercury\">Mercury<\/a> tours <a\nhref=\"http:\/\/sasstrology.com\/libra-man-woman\">Libra<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Planet Mercury governs your thoughts, as well as your personal style of connecting through various modes of communication. Libra is the zodiac sign that identifies strongly with partnership and with striking the right balance within that partnership. Operating as it does through the air element, Libra is associated with social and romantic connections, as well as intelligence. It\u2019s a fitting sign for mental Mercury to work his magic in.<\/p>\n<p>When Mercury is in Libra, minds are more keenly attuned to intellectual and abstract ideas. That may not sound ultra-romantic, but people judge each other by their intelligence (as well as looks and money&mdash;which are also of concern to Libra). And, for some, a smarty-pants is dead sexy. A well-timed and brief comment about the political landscape, for instance, can be a subtle clue that you\u2019ve got the brains behind those doe-eyes.<\/p>\n<p>No diatribes or soap boxes, though. The idea is to drop a little teaser that you\u2019re so much more than just another pretty face. While Libra values intelligence, it\u2019s also important to keep the conversation on the light and charming side. Even flirting can\u2019t be heavy-handed with Mercury in Libra. A quiet compliment goes much further than a dramatic display of approval.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not that Libra energy is shy or modest; it\u2019s just that Libra has an innate awareness of the axiom <em>everything in moderation<\/em>. Think of Libra\u2019s scales always weighing whether someone or something is too much, too little, or just right. Think Goldilocks.<\/p>\n<p>Goldilocks on a mission, mind you. Libra is a cardinal sign, after all; it\u2019s very comfortable going after what or whom it wants. There\u2019s an agenda even if you can\u2019t smell it. No wonder, for those with strong Libra energy are utterly subtle and charming.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, Mercury in Libra helps you align with Libra\u2019s prized values easily enough. The pursuit of love and beauty, and the aspiration towards artistry and symmetry are Libra\u2019s domain. Pepper your conversations, emails, texts, status updates and tweets with any or all of those virtues and you\u2019re bound to capture the attention of your Beloved without having to club them over the head.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Mercury is in Libra, show your intelligence &#8212; but keep the conversation on the light and charming side.<\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link-p\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/?p=44009\">Read more &rarr;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":75,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[],"tags":[645],"class_list":["post-44009","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","tag-mercury"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pekXVE-brP","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44009","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/75"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=44009"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44009\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":44144,"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44009\/revisions\/44144"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=44009"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=44009"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=44009"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
