Aries and Leo compatibility
A Fire trine between Mars and the Sun: warm, generous and proud, a couple that shines together as long as each applauds the other.
Between Aries and Leo, Fire flows without obstruction: this is a trine, the smoothest angle in the zodiac. The Sun, Leo’s ruler, is exalted in Aries: these two recognize each other right away. Aries is cardinal and starts things. Leo is fixed and makes them last. At a party they soon become the center of the room, one because they dare, the other because they glow. Leo wants the evening to be beautiful, memorable, well dressed. Aries wants it to start now. That is often their only real disagreement. The rest of the time they push each other upward: Leo believes in Aries’ nerve, Aries admires Leo’s generosity. The delicate spot is pride. Leo needs to be recognized, and Aries, caught up in momentum, forgets to say thank you or notice the effort. Aries, for their part, hates being directed, and Leo is used to ruling. When a fight breaks out it is spectacular and short, and making up often involves a grand gesture.
In love
In love, this is a sunny pairing: open declarations, lively desire, gifts Leo chooses with care. Aries should know that Leo needs regular compliments, not only on birthdays. Leo has to accept that Aries shows love by doing more than by saying. A spontaneous trip planned by Aries says more than a speech.
As friends
As friends, they’re the pair everyone invites. Aries sets up the outing at the last minute, Leo turns it into an event. They defend each other in public, always. Their fallouts come from wounded pride and end as soon as one takes the first step.
At work
At work, Aries opens the market and Leo holds it and becomes the face of the brand. Two leaders: each needs a clear territory, or the meeting turns into a contest. Well divided, they can fire up a whole team. Leo is also good at giving Aries public credit, which drives Aries more than a bonus.
Applaud each other, literally: say out loud what the other pulled off this week. And when you fight, whoever apologizes first hasn’t lost.
Sun-sign compatibility looks at one planet out of ten. Each person’s Venus, Mars and Moon often say more.
