Many Leo-Aquarius relationships thrive on unending mutual admiration. Leo
admires the individualism, vision and creative characteristics of Aquarius. In
turn, Aquarius admires the Lion's zeal, charm and dignity -- Aquarians always
have new ideas, but they don't always have the drive to make those ideas real as
Leo does. Both Signs pride themselves on their independence, but conflicts can
arise if Leo seems too demanding or Aquarius seems too aloof. Both partners
should respect differences of perspective in the other. Leo can be too dramatic
for Aquarius' taste, but Aquarius in turn could be too unsteady for their Leo
counterpart. If they communicate to one another the value of the relationship,
everything will be okay.
For each of you, the force of habit is strong. More than likely, you're both
determined, purposeful and persistent. This relationship is a test of wills.
Neither one of you is easily pushed, pulled or pressured.
Leo, the regal Lion is ruled by the shining Sun but Aquarius, the Water-Bearer,
is ruled by cool, structured Saturn and eccentric Uranus, so the attraction of
opposites in intense. When these two powerhouses get together, the flames of
love burn bright.
Aquarius and Leo are both Fixed Signs, so, even though you are natural partners,
ego-conflicts can spark up, especially when your authority is questioned.
Luckily these conflicts can almost always be resolved between the sheets, for
Aquarius, being fond of the new and unusual, can introduce some fascinating
variations to the boudoir. The Water Bearer is often accused, with some
justification, of being unduly emotionally detached and even somewhat clinical.
Since Leo is big-hearted, generous and love to be centre-stage, this can be
rather annoying, especially should your quirky Aquarian's attention be caught by
some lesser breed of zodiacal beast. You need to smooth out these superficial
personality conflicts, for at a deeper level, you are very well-matched.
Once you commit to each other, this relationship can become steady, stable and a
powerhouse. Stand firm on the conviction that you are working to overcome
inertia together. At heart, Leo is practically perfect. The ancients have said
that Leo is entitled to the Lion's share of fun. Leo needs to roar with pride,
both on centre stage and in the bedroom. By Developing willpower, Leo can find
creative ways to get into the spotlight and shine. Leo is plying the game of
life stakes higher than Aquarius may realize. To win points, Aquarius can treat
Leo to a most excellent piece of gold jewellery. Leo also appreciates Aquarius's
undivided attention.
When Leo and Aquarius join together in a love match, the merging of Aquarian
foresight and Leo creativity causes people to take notice. This partnership is
energetic and unstoppable, and although occasional competitions may occur, there
is never a dull moment for these two. Their Signs are congenial and have a good
relationship. Both tend to be idealistic and highly motivated. Both are
attracted to all things novel, and are thrill-seekers; they may even
occasionally turn life into a giant game of Truth or Dare.
The Sun, centre of our solar system, is the ruler of the heart, so Leo is
naturally loyal and true, while Aquarius, always interested in things that are
off the wall, can be rather more promiscuous than Leo would like. The inquiring
Aquarian mind can also be more critical than Leo is used to, so this can be
rather unpleasantly deflating. The plus side is that Aquarius is original and
creative in every way, but especially in matters of the heart, so can take you
down some exciting new pathways.
Aquarius is friendly and likes people. But if the people are emotionally needy,
then Aquarius needs space. Aquarius can march to the beat of a different
drummer. Aquarius can have an eccentric temperament and can be just a bit
strong, original, independent, unpredictable and contrary. Aquarius is well
suited to become an idea person.
Leo’s grand sense of social awareness can encourage the often somewhat reclusive
Water Bearer to come out more into the limelight, while Aquarius in turn brings
a cooler, more intellectual quality to the partnership. The Water Bearer is
focused on exploring singular, original pathways, the discovery and structuring
of new knowledge. The Water Bearer hates to be tied down, but if you can
restrain your possessive streak, Leo, you'll admire your partner's intellect and
wide-ranging interests, while he or she will respond to the warm embrace in the
Lion's den.
Aquarius can become a fabulous communicator, perceptive, intelligent and highly
intuitive. Aquarius is no snob or hypocrite. On the contrary, Aquarius has the
potential to develop tremendous social skills. The more Aquarius adopts the
"live and let live" attitude, the more friends Aquarius will make.
Leo is ruled by The Sun and Aquarius is ruled by the Planets Saturn and Uranus.
These three Planets form a sort of cycle indicative of the Leo-Aquarius
relationship and their ability to come together to create new institutions.
Uranus is the Planet of new ideas and creativity; it's from this Planet that
Aquarius gets its great vision. Then The Sun gives life and an identity to their
collective ideas. Finally Saturn keeps the process going to completion,
following up after Uranus's inspiration has been exhausted and The Sun's energy
moves on to new things.
Basically, Leo is physical and Aquarius is mental. You have different views of
independence: to you it means pursuing a glamorous, extravagant lifestyle; to
Aquarius it means freedom to explore new horizons.
Together you can make a great team, but if Aquarius gets impatient with Leo’s
constant need for adulation, or objects to their imperious manner, problems may
become unmanageable. This relationship will be exciting and potentially
long-lasting if you can find other interests in common, so that when the fire
turns into a firestorm, you can find a way to clear out the underbrush.
