This can be a very warm and mutually
fulfilling relationship. Both of you are romantics at heart and tend to
be "in love with love". You both need and love romantic
gestures, the giving and receiving of gifts, etc. Personal appearances
and attractiveness is important to both of you as well, and you both are
somewhat vain.
Leo is more decisive and very clear about
personal preferences and desires, while Libra is more flexible and will
compromise graciously in order to please Leo. Leo is more self-absorbed
or self-centred that Libra. Of the two of you, Leo is the stronger
individual, and the balance of power in your relationship may be
somewhat lopsided. However, Libra has a highly developed sense of
fairness and equality, and will protest sooner or later if Leo begins to
expect obediances all of the time.
Both of you are personable, friendly, and
affectionate, with a strong romantic streak, but you are different in
many respects also.
Leo is individualistic, proud, and
somewhat egotistical, while Libra is more concerned with "us"
rather than "me". Libra is more aware of others' needs than
Leo is, and ore willing to accommodate them. This can be a significant
problem for Libra at times – being too obliging, too eager to please,
compromising too much. Being indecisive is also a habit of Libra's. On
the other hand, Leo is naturally rather self-centred, more dominant,
certain, and decisive, and may unintentionally take advantage of Libra's
agreeableness. But Libra does have a strong sense of fairness and will
resent being the one who give in all of the time.
Wit, intelligence, and an active mind are
attributes the two of you share, and in your relationship there will be
a focus on communicating, bantering, a lot of verbal give and take. Both
of you tend to be the dominant one in any discussion or debate, and you
may find yourselves competing with each other in your discussions. This
most likely will not be a major problem, but both of you would do well
to step back and truly listen to one another.
Neither of you is particularly
conventional, nor are you great lovers of rules and formal traditions
for their own sake, but Leo is apt to have a much harder time
conforming, and may in fact openly scorn or rebel against such
limitations. There is apt to be a great deal of change, constant motion,
fluctuating circumstances, and disorganisation in Leo's life, whereas
Libra embraces necessary changes and flows with them but doesn't seem to
need to create upsetting and unstable situations all of the time. Libra
can help Leo learn how to be true to oneself and one's own beliefs and
nature without needing to always rail against "the
establishment" or "the system".
There is an electric, immediate
attraction between the two of you and an element of surprise, discovery,
and spontaneity will always infuse your relationship.
Libra stimulates Leo to be more
uninhibited, looser, less conventional, and to experiment. Libra can
also be unpredictable and changeable toward Leo, and Leo may feel that
Libra is not to be relied upon. Libra brings out Leo's independent or
eccentric side. Personal freedom, independence, and individuality are
highlighted in your relationship, and sometimes one or both of you feels
that there is not enough togetherness, mutual dependency, or emotional
closeness.
There is much enthusiasm and spark
between you, and your relationship is always changing, always exciting.
Your feelings towards each other change
quickly and you often react to each other rather impulsively. When the
mood is right, you find each other sexually irresistible, but at other
times you get on each other's nerves. You may feel like you fall in and
out of love on a monthly basis! It seems that you are either making
love, fighting with each other, or indifferent to each other, and you
may sometimes wish for greater constancy. Your domestic life is likely
to be very unstable. If you can be flexible and flow with the
fluctuating feelings, this relationship can be exciting and fascinating
– otherwise your patience will wear thin and you will perceive your
relationship as hopelessly unstable and your partner as unreliable and
untrustworthy.
Sexual attraction is very strong, but as
with other things, one of you is likely to come on too strong to the
other and this may be offensive to your partner. There is a driving,
compelling, somewhat impersonal quality to your love-making at times.
Leo tends to dominate the sexual
expression. Your affairs are seldom static. In physical affection, you
are very anxious to please each other. Mirrors, oils, bedroom toys may
attract you.
There is a certain air of openness,
tolerance, and freedom between you, and you would both encourage one
another to seek friendship, positive experiences, and rewarding
connections outside of the relationship as well as within it.
