To get the full scoop on sexual chemistry, find out the Mars and Venus placements for you and your lover. Considering these as well as the Sun sign will increase your understanding of a lover's and your own libido.

Mars in Libra

Warlike Mars in Libra's sign is not considered well-placed because the assertive thrust of Mars can't be expressed with all that back-and-forth and balancing that Libra is prone to. The person with this placement may have real problems making a decision and finds sex a challenge because at first, one thing looks good, and then you could also do that position, or try this other one. The desire to please may attract a more definite lover that can harness Mars in Libra's libido and focus it.

There is a refined quality with this placement, and a lover with this position is extremely fair and legally oriented. He tends to speak as if he were cross-examining someone, which is perhaps not the best sort of dialogue between the sheets. Tasteful and friendly books about sex are good for this placement to consider because it will get the fantasy wheels in motion and help give him some ideas about what to do.

Teasing and tickling are great preliminaries, as is biting. Love bites are one way that Mars in Libra can satisfy his need for aggression but maintain a cute quotient. Mars in Libra may also be very subtle about seduction. While he has the intention of going to bed, this placement does not want to make a move that appears crude or vulgar. Don't miss that extra pressure on the small of his back as you dance. It can be filled with meaning.

Venus in Libra

This position is the love goddess personified. Venus is Libra's ruler, and when she is placed here a person is incredibly romantic and idealistic in love. She may also be naïve about the qualities of her partner, for she sees the one she loves through rose-colored glasses.

There is nothing quite like the delight of having one of these charming lovers. She will prepare your favorite foods, dress to please, be a stimulating conversationalist, and, in bed, elevate lovemaking to worshipful harmony.

Lust is not her strong point, but you may not even notice because what she does offer is so delightful. If you like to get down and have sex in public or in hidden corners, or in any extreme way, this is not the lass for you.

With Venus in Libra, the ideas of romance, sex, and partnership all blend together to create a truly beautiful experience. Orgasms may bring her to tears, and she is supportive and encouraging to her partner.
