Virgo - Love Match - Virgo and Leo

When Virgo and Leo join together in a love match, they may initially overlook common interests
and feel they have nothing to gain from one another. This is a relationship that evolves over time, each partner gradually understanding and appreciating the other. Leo is extroverted, dominant, and charismatic, and often has a short fuse. Virgo is studious and withdrawn, possessed of more versatility than Leo. Although there are differences, they make a wonderful love match when each partner warms up to the other's unfamiliar style.

Early in the relationship, Leo and Virgo may see nothing but faults in one another. Leo may seem tyrannical, and Virgo may seem too judgmental. But when they stop looking solely at one
another's flaws and begin to discover one another's positive attributes, they'll discover an
attraction. Leo shows Virgo good times and fun, and introduces the spontaneity that is often
missing in Virgo's life. Virgo teaches Leo patience and focuses their intellectual energy. Leo may
feel Virgo is watching with too keen of an eye, but will inspire their partner to ease up. Virgo may consider Leo selfish and foreboding, but can teach them to be sensitive to others' needs.

Leo is ruled by The Sun and Virgo is ruled by the Planet Mercury. The Sun emanates light and
heat and waits for others to gather around and accept the gifts of their presence. Virgo reaches
out to others and works out all the details before committing to a determined goal. Both Signs
need to take the time to see the value of the other's approach; Leo can teach Virgo to be less
critical and more spontaneous while the Lion gains stability from Virgo's even keel.

Leo is a Fire Sign, and Virgo is an Earth Sign. Leo starts in on new projects without stopping to
consider their motivation, while Virgo takes a more practical approach. Virgo is concerned with
the outcome of their efforts while Leo simply pursues what they want with no mind for the
consequences.

Leo is a Fixed Sign, and Virgo is a Mutable Sign. Virgo likes to spend time working hard and
spreading themselves over many different areas. Leo, on the other hand, enjoys taking charge or managing a project and assigns roles to the other participants. The absence of conflict over who's who in the relationship helps Leo and Virgo avoid unpleasant character evaluations.

What is the best aspect of the Leo-Virgo relationship? It's their effectiveness as a couple.
Metaphorically and literally, Leo commands attention and respect by showing people what they
are made of socially, and following through on new ideas motivated only by fun and excitement.
Virgo works hard behind the scenes, scheduling appointments and following up on details Leo
has lost interest in. Their personalities, opposite in so many ways, makes theirs a highly
complementary love match.
