Here we have that delightful sextile pattern that generally gets on very well with one another. In this case, you have a very interesting mix indeed. Libra, ruled by Venus, resides in the 7th House of relationships. Without the relationships in your life you feel void, empty and incomplete and if you’re in that situation you will quickly set out to resolve it as quickly as possible. You are a people person with a capital "P." You like to interact and connect with people, not just be around them, and your gift of gab is helpful there. You don’t just fade into the ambiance at a party, you’re at the hub, which is very natural for a Cardinal Air sign.
Sag is another one that can be the life of the party, but in a different way. As a Fire sign, you’re more interested in people because you like attention. You’re brilliant, or at least you seem to think so, and you like to share that superior wisdom. You are not above putting other lesser human beings in their place, especially those with a cretin viewpoint toward the cosmos, and greatly manifest your upbringing in the 9th House of higher education, legal matters and long distance travel, to name a few. You can be a snob and proud of it. That’s what Jupiter does as a ruling planet, expands things, and your ego is one of them. There is nothing you like better than a good debate and the intellectual stimulation that goes along with it.
And that is probably one of the reasons that you and Libra will get along famously, because you like to argue and no matter what you come up with, Libra will have the other side of the story ready to go. Do you want fries with that?
Libra doesn’t like to argue per se, in fact that is probably their primary goal in life to make everyone understand everyone else and create a completely fair planet. But when Sag gets off on one of its high-minded discourses about something, it doesn’t really matter what, you can bet that Libra will jump right in with the other side of the story. Now whether this is stimulating or annoying is entirely up to you. It can sharpen your comprehension of the issue and make your discourses all the more credible in public or you can simply burn out, get tired and let it go, which is probably what Libra is hoping for.
Libra is likely to admire Sag’s brilliance, which is a good thing in Sag’s mind, but bear in mind that Sag might not want all of their opinions, premises and theories questioned, particularly in public. You may be trying to be fair and present all sides, but they may view you as an adversary. Remember that Archers are pretty good at taking pot shots with that bow and arrow and you don’t want to find yourself skewered, in public or private. So you may need to tone it down a bit, or at least make sure you don’t come on in a way that can be perceived as adversarial. That solved you are likely to get along just fine.
