“How does your child perceive the mother?” Your child perceives the mother as a woman who is very interested in her appearance and constantly relies on others in her actions. The child may see the mother as exceptionally beautiful and an ideal of true beauty.
“What does he need to feel confident and secure?” Such a child needs someone to play with. He rarely feels satisfied when left alone for long. When no one is around, this child often complains that he doesn’t know what to do. With no one to respond to his words or actions, he feels sad and turns to you for support. No task brings him joy if there’s no one to share his success or failure with. Understand this!
You will find that you accomplish much more work if you find a friend for your child to play with—even if you have to invite that friend over to your home. And if the friend is similar in character to your child, you won’t have to worry about their games. A child with the Moon in Libra prefers everything to be pleasant and peaceful; he won’t initiate rough play or quarrels on his own.
However, this child may show particular indecisiveness when faced with two alternatives of roughly equal value. He wants both, so he weighs all the pros and cons for so long that it may drive you to distraction. Don’t ask your child to make too many ordinary decisions (what to wear, what to eat)—it will be easier and calmer for both of you if you simply make the choice yourself rather than ask him to decide.
(Various sources for the child’s horoscope)
Moon in Libra means that children are strongly influenced by Venus and have a gentle nature. By nature, they are very peaceful people. Often, when this trait is taken to an extreme, they easily agree with everything and strive to achieve peace at any cost. Undoubtedly, understanding others is a wonderful quality, but it’s still important not to compromise one’s own principles or ideals.
A positive attitude from others is extremely important for children with this Moon placement. They need to interact with people: they enjoy teamwork and tolerate solitude poorly. Teach the child to be a little more discerning in choosing companions, and his emotional balance (for Libra always seeks balance) will remain intact, and he won’t have to abandon his principles.
Children with the Moon in Libra have a good character, a tender and sensitive heart, and generally get along well with people. They tend to see only the good in others, which, as you understand, can easily lead to trouble. Such a child quickly falls under the influence of peers, so he needs help in choosing friends. Explain to him that he doesn’t need to try to please everyone at once—it’s impossible to do so.
Children with the Moon in Libra value beauty in all its forms: they love painting, music, nice clothes, jewelry, and luxury in general. If they are upset or anxious, music will soothe their soul better than anything else. Explain to the child that it’s physically impossible to always be in harmony with the world around them. Teaching the child to control their emotions and actions means teaching them to maintain their emotional balance. It’s not difficult—it just takes a little practice.
Family bonds are very important to such children; they need their loved ones to believe in them. The charm of those born with the Moon in Libra is more than enough—it only remains to teach them how to use it properly, for it is truly a divine gift that provides great advantages in life. However, they shouldn’t squander it over trifles.
Whether engaged in work, household chores, or something else, such children are unlikely to show much enthusiasm, especially if they have to do it alone. Working in a group is a different matter—they will try. But be attentive: there’s a chance that instead of productive work, they’ll engage in pleasant chatter. Try to change the child’s attitude toward work. Explain that work can be difficult (and even dirty!), but it is in itself a constructive and positive endeavor. Besides, the little one will certainly be happy to see the results of their efforts. They will be doubly happy if they worked not alone but with friends.
Perhaps the most important thing you can do for your child is to teach them to take initiative. This is necessary because otherwise, they simply won’t survive in our harsh world. Remember how often you have to push them, remind them, almost poke their nose into things… So emphasize the value of their own initiatives in everything, whether it’s doing homework or tidying up the room. And don’t forget about rewards. They will be happy with anything beautiful—whether it’s a flower or a lovely melody. You can read their favorite book to them or simply give them a tight hug and a kiss.

I fear loneliness,
My dear, my beloved:
Both night and day, sorrow and joy
I will share with you!
A child like this truly needs someone to play with. He rarely feels satisfied when left alone for long. Relationships with friends can mean everything to him. When no one is around, this child often complains that he doesn’t know what to do. With no one to respond to his words or actions, he feels sad and turns to you for support. No task brings him joy if there’s no one to share his success or failure with. Understand this!
Excuses like “go read a book,” “watch TV,” or “you have a whole room full of toys—how can you be bored?” do not satisfy the needs of this child at all.
You will find that you accomplish much more work if you find a friend for your child to play with—even if you have to invite that friend over to your home. If the friend is similar in character to your child, you won’t have to worry about their games. A child with the Moon in Libra prefers everything to be pleasant and peaceful. He won’t initiate rough play or quarrels on his own, though he is usually sociable and gets along well with a group. He tends to choose one special friend. If they play in a trio and a conflict arises, your child will likely act as a mediator, as they want to restore peace and instinctively see both sides of the issue to find a compromise.
However, this child may show particular indecisiveness of Libra when faced with two alternatives of roughly equal value. He wants both or doesn’t want to miss out on either, so he weighs all the pros and cons for so long that it may drive you to distraction. Don’t ask your child to make too many ordinary decisions—it will be easier and calmer for both of you if you simply say, “Wear this, you look very nice in it,” instead of “What would you like to wear?” or “Let’s have some chocolate ice cream,” instead of “Do you want chocolate or strawberry?” If he has a clear preference, he will probably tell you himself, but if you ask him to choose when there’s no clear preference, it can take a very long time.
