Leo and Virgo Compatibility

Leo Astral Profiles and Compatibilities

The Leo is the fire that has expanded and takes care of everything. It reflects the strength of life, the joy of living, the ability to love, the arts and personal talents to be developed. This native lives in search of great love and prepares all its life to find it. But it doesn't want a calm and gentle love; it accepts nothing less than an eternal, burning passion, as in the first encounters.

According to Astrology, Leo has greater astral compatibility with Aries and Libra. Aries gives courage and encourages Leo's adventurous spirit, while Libra accentuates its charm and grace. Leo also gets along well with Sagittarius and Gemini. Leo is less akin to Cancer and Virgo, signs with very different personalities than Leo. However, the Leo and Cancer combination can work if the male is Leo and the female is Cancer. Leo and Capricorn's relationship is equally difficult. Both want to be in charge, they have difficulty negotiating and their personalities have little in common.

According to Astrology, the signs of the Zodiac that share the same energetic charge, the Primordial Element (Fire, Earth, Air, Water), energize each other, while signs of different Elements may have greater difficulty in relating to each other. Fire follows the motto “it is better to travel with hope than to arrive”; Earth prefers “arrival”; Air works “as a function of intellect and logic”; Water follows "the ebb and flow of the tide of feelings". Together, the four Elements represent opposites but also the complementarity of astrological archetypes.

Compatibility of Leo and Virgo

Leo is a Fire sign, Fixed and ruled by the planet Neptune, a star associated with the absence of borders, the world of feelings, escape, letting go with the tide. But also to dreams and fantasies, to confusion or charm. Leo has a loving personality and pays attention to its partner, friends and family. It is also very generous with the time and attention it gives to others. Their instinct is to give. No care is spared to ensure everyone's comfort and satisfaction.

Virgo is an Earth, Mutable sign, ruled by Mercury, the star of rigor, precision and communication. They have a favorable, faithful, and loving temperament and the ability to make others feel special and wanted.

Virgo is patient, adaptable, efficient and prudent. With the sign of Virgo, nothing is left to chance. All details are considered, variables analyzed, risks weighted. Virgo is the person of duty par excellence. You can always count on its support because it has the strength of the Earth element but Mercury's influence gives it a greater opening to the world of intelligence.

In Astrology, compatibility between signs is based, in part, on their place on the Zodiac wheel. Signs close to each other tend to be less compatible and, therefore, have greater difficulty in relating. There are some exceptions, but the union between Leo and Virgo is not one of them.

Leo and Virgo are very different signs and their compatibility is reduced. Leo shines on the stage of life, with the spotlight all turned towards its person. Virgo has a modest, shy and reserved personality, and prefers to stay behind the scenes. It dreads showing off and being the center of attention. Leo is generous with praise, even in public, while Virgo is very uncomfortable when someone praises or mentions it in public.

In some sign bindings, the differences between them, allow them to balance and complement each other. But it is not the case of Leo and Virgo where what separates them is stronger than what unites them. They live in tension. Virgo is naturally shy and demure, Leo likes to show it off. Leo, who hates routine and loves movement and people around it, is impatient with Virgo's quirks, fears and routine habits.

These two natives have a hard time understanding each other and have different lifestyles and personalities. Leo is confused by Virgo's resistance to change and the unknown. They can relate, but they need to work hard to get along peacefully.

Leo can help Virgo be more relaxed and confident, and less judgmental. With Virgo, Leo can learn the value of modesty and service, the taste and pleasure of caring for others in a discreet way. However, with their differences, they irritate each other and reaching an understanding can be tricky.

How Fire and Earth Signs Relate to Each Other

In a romantic relationship, the habits and routines required by the Earth Element can dampen the desire for Fire, which needs to be constantly nurtured. Earth has difficulty adapting to this constant need for Fire's exuberant passion. However, the combination of Fire and Earth elements results in intense physical attraction and desire. One more thing plays in favor of the relationship of these natives – both are given to gestures of tenderness and gentleness.

Fire’s effervescent, vivacious and non-conformist dynamism attracts the utter conventionality and prudence of Earth. However, when in a relationship, these two elements can have some difficulty adapting – Earth appreciates the constancy and security of the future, and Fire loves constant change and passion, so there will always be resistance, where the mundane aspects of Earth drown out the intense desires of Fire, which lives and breathes for the present moment.

If Earth tries to secure a relationship with Fire at all costs, the life of this element ends up being drained and Fire becomes convinced that Earth is slowly draining its strength, ending up complaining about the routine and monotony of the relationship. This can stimulate the explosive qualities of Fire, which will possibly result in fury and irritability. Consequently, the Earth element will try to contain such eruptions, or it will be completely repelled. If neither manages to come to terms with the opposites, the unconscious will intervene and the “ideal” relationship breaks down.

The Fire Element and the Astral Personality

The Fire native is dynamic, enterprising, physically active and full of energy. Overwhelmed by enthusiasm, it has a tendency to exaggerate and overexpress himself. With a Choleric temperament, the genius of these natives is easily inflamed – everyone who lives with a person of this Element is well aware of their typical outbursts of bad temper.

In emotional terms, Fire's temperament is not very demonstrative and its “dryness” can make it rigid and even insensitive. Impatience makes it ungracious in its expressions, reaching to rudeness and hostility.

It reacts with great intensity to external threats or challenges, and it can be conflictual or even violent. In extreme cases, the combination of lack of sensitivity and the ease with which they express your anger can make them cruel.

The Earth Element and the Astral Personality

The Earth Element personality is patient and persevering and has a very particular relationship to time. Unlike the Fire Element, Earth needs to settle down, to take root, basing the development of all aspects of your life there.

The temperament of this Element is Melancholic, not exuberant in its expression, but very concrete in its actions. Its focus of attention is objective reality, which gives it a lot of solidity and security. You tend to deal better with facts than ideas. It is generally resourceful and a good investigator.

In emotional terms it is not very demonstrative and, like a Choleric, it is rigid in its sensitivity. However, the Cold quality makes them quite susceptible, tending towards sadness, pessimism and, when emotionally unbalanced, depression.

Astrology and Compatibility Between Zodiac Signs

Affinities in relationships manifest themselves in a variety of ways and Astrology can give some clues about how the signs interact with each other. Astrology tells us that the greatest compatibilities arise when two people belong to the same astrological element, as they share the same vision of reality and have a similar way of being and living.

Likewise, the attraction between two opposite signs can be instantaneous and the relationship tends to be harmonious. However, this does not mean that there are no affinities between people belonging to signs of different elements. Where there is love, affection and understanding, life happens. How the relationship evolves depends on many factors, astrological profiles being just one of them.

Zodiac Signs Compatibility

This is a result of the astrological profiles of the signs that you chose based on the analysis of the compatibility between temperaments, energies and characteristics. This analysis is based on general data, being valid for all types of relationships, whether love, friendship or work.

A detailed and personalized study is only possible through a synastry report. Although the profiles of the signs allow us to deduce whether they are more or less compatible with each other, only through the birth chart is it possible to make a realistic interpretation and draw true conclusions.

Remember that relationships are influenced by multiple variables, astrological being just one of them. The force of will, commitment and free choice condition the way in which relationships can or cannot progress in a favourable way. Any relationship, regardless of the influence of the stars, can work as long as there is a desire for it to happen, on both sides.
