Aries and Leo Love Compatibility

Your Sign Aries
Partner's Sign 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.

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 have their ego stroked, services that 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.

Planets

Aries is ruled by the planet Mars, and Leo is ruled by the sun.

Both embody masculine energy archetypes, creating a strong synergy as they understand each other from a shared perspective. The sun is about the self, and Mars is about aggressive energy, so they’re highly compatible and can make a powerful team.

Elements

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. There’s always competition in this partnership as to who’s in charge. Since a love relationship shouldn’t be about power, this can become a problem. 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.

Modalities

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 deeply about each other. When they understand that 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 between these two signs is palpable. With Aries taking the lead and Leo providing follow-through, they each play a vital role in the partnership. Their shared energy and passion create a dynamic duo.
