Love Match - Aries and Leo

When Aries and Leo come together in a love affair, the sparks will fly! Both are Fire Signs,
passionate and dynamic, with a healthy love of sportsmanship and competition. There is a lot of
action in this relationship. Both Signs want to be the boss and problems can arise when their
equally-large egos get in the way. These partners have genuine admiration and respect for each
other, but they need to learn to take turns commanding and giving orders -- even when they're
only choosing a movie at the video store!

This partnership is all about fiery passion, domination and who's on top -- and when! Both Signs
can be impatient and proud. Leo likes to be adored and their egos to be stroked, services which
easily-bored Aries may not want to provide. Aries may also be bothered by Leo's flirtatious nature -- but this relationship is always exciting. Despite their sometimes noisy differences,
Aries often looks to Leo as a guide or counselor. Leo is the Lion and, with Leo, Aries can be the lamb. As in the myth (The Lion and the Lamb), any differences between these two can be overcome. Both Signs are usually respected by others and it's important that this respect exists within the relationship as well.


Aries is ruled by the Planet Mars and Leo is ruled by the Sun. Both are masculine energy
archetypes, and together they make a good combination -- they understand each other because
they're coming from the same place. The Sun is about the self and Mars is about aggressive
energy, so they're highly compatible and can make a powerful team.
Both Aries and Leo are Fire Signs. This tends to be a very heated and passionate relationship.
When it's good it's very, very good, but when it's bad it's all about loud arguments and damaged
egos. In this partnership there's always competition as to who's in charge. Since a love
relationship shouldn't be about power, this can become a problem. Both of these Signs have
boundless energy, so both will always be on the go. Although they may disagree often, their
differences of opinion don't last long -- Aries is too busy moving on to the next challenge to hold a grudge. Leo needs to remember not to be resentful if their Aries lover doesn't show them enough respect.

Aries is a Cardinal Sign and Leo is a Fixed Sign. Aries gives Leo the assertiveness to charge
ahead and take chances, while Leo can help teach Aries to stabilize and follow things through.
Aries may sometimes hurt Leo's feelings by saying something hurtful without thinking.
Conversely, Aries may be irritated by Leo's bossy nature and tendency to sulk. But they're both
loyal and care about each other deeply, and when they can understand there doesn't have to be
a boss, their relationship can be exciting bliss.

What's the best aspect of the Aries-Leo relationship? The mutual admiration both Signs share for one another. With Aries as the initiator and Leo as the one who follows through, they both have their integral niche within the partnership. Their mutual energy and passion makes theirs a dynamic relationship.
