Both of you are very proud, stubborn,
strong-willed individuals and you are attracted to the strength of
character that you sense in each other. There is a feeling of conquest
between you that may serve to intensify the excitement of your
attraction to each other. However, your strong wills may also prove to
be a problem in a long-term relationship. You face the possibility that
your combined inflexibility will make it difficult for the two of you to
reach mutually satisfying decisions and both of you tend to stubbornly
resist compromising when your preferences are different. A battle of
wills is likely to ensue!
Another potential problem is jealousy or
lop-sided bonding. Scorpio bonds very intensely in romantic
relationships and is inclined towards monogamy. Leo is also very loyal,
but not nearly as intense, emotional, or obsessive as Scorpio is.
Temperamentally, the two of you are like
night and day. Leo is basically sunny, open, warm and fun-loving, and
not given to a great deal of introspection or serious self-analysis,
while Scorpio is very private, emotionally deep and complex, and rather
hard to get to know. Scorpio is a much more suspicious or cautious soul
than Leo is. Behind Scorpio's reserve lies much sensitivity and intense
emotion. Scorpio distrusts superficial appearances and is always seeking
the hidden meanings or deeper motivations in people, dredging up the
buried past, or looking for the fly in the ointment. Leo accepts things
as they are (or appear to be) much more readily, and may feel that
Scorpio makes unnecessary trouble by probing so deeply all of the time.
The truth is that Leo is very proud and wants always to be thought of
well – and would therefore rather not discover anything within that is
less than praiseworthy. Also, Scorpio has a jealous, distrustful side
that Leo, who is basically straightforward and open, doesn't really
understand. Leo may get exasperated with Scorpio's lingering suspicions.
Scorpio is drawn inward to the depth, to
darkness and mystery, while Leo is more outward and seeks the light,
bright side of life. Leo, for instance, needs and enjoys people, is much
more social, and loves to entertain. Scorpio would prefer an evening
alone or spent in an intimate atmosphere with a few close friends, where
the interaction is likely to be deeper and more revealing.
There really need not be a conflict over
these differences in your emotional natures, as long as the two of you
understand and accept them. You are both very strong-willed and somewhat
inflexible, and you insist on being yourselves despite the differences
between you.
Both of you have good organisational
skills, the ability to focus and concentrate your will in a single
direction, and the tenacity to persist and keep at a task until it is
completed. You are both steady plodders, very reliable workers, and may
bet burdened with all of the work no one else wants to do. Order and
thoroughness come naturally to you both. You appreciate the "plan
your work and work your plan" approach. You both want insurance or
guarantees before you dive headlong into anything.
You spark each other's ambitions and
hopes. You find yourselves scheming together, developing business plans,
and strategies for achieving success. You encourage each other to set
your goals and it is likely that you will undertake several joint
ventures together. Over-optimism and unrealistic hopes are your
liabilities; enthusiastic hard work is your asset.
"Let's have a good time!" will
be one of the ongoing themes in your relationship. You encourage each
other to play, to laugh and to see the lighter side of life, to expand
your horizons, and simply enjoy life.
As a couple you are inclined to overdo
the "good life" however, and can put too much into luxuries,
vacations, delicious but transitory pleasures. You'll want to life it up
together, to just go out and have fun – and FUN is definitely one of
the purposes of your relationship… but eventually you'll have to pay
for this if you two don't keep it within reasonable bounds.
Unexpected good fortune and
"miracles" will happen to the two of you as a couple. There is
an undeniable "lucky" streak in this relationship.
You spark enthusiasm in each other. You
enjoy being a little "crazy" with each other and are inclined
to joke and tease each other. Sexual attraction is strong and you are
very compatible sexually – you are likely to feel that your partner is
a great lover. If you enjoy dancing, music, or some sport that requires
agility and gracefulness, then you will love engaging your partner in
this activity.
Your sexual attraction for one another
comes in sudden, unexpected waves. At times, it is irresistible and you
are likely to find yourselves unexpectedly becoming involved in a sexual
relationship even before you have gotten to know each other very well.
This sudden arousal of sexual interest, however, subsides as suddenly
and mysteriously as it is awakened, and the inconstancy of the
attraction and fascination for each other can put this relationship on a
roller coaster ride.
Things are unlikely to become dull or
predictable between you, as there is a strong current of intense change
and constant renewal in your relationship. Your deepest desires for
freedom and for new life and growth can be fulfilled in this
relationship but will probably come about as a result of some radical
decision and break from the past, a complete disruption of the status
quo, especially for Leo. You may never quite feel like you are on stable
ground together, and this can be very exciting or very uncomfortable,
depending upon your individual temperaments.
