Are Leo and Libra made for each other? Are these two blessed with good karmic blessings from the stars? Can these two learn to embrace each other with each other's faults and bring fulfillment to each other's lives. The answer is pretty simple if you know this. Let me tell you something about Leo. Leo is luxury loving, eternally (and hopelessly) romantic, has a love for the finer things in life, loves to hit all the hot and happening places in town and is infuriatingly idealistic. Now, let's see a glimpse of Libra. Libra is luxury loving, eternally (and hopelessly) romantic, has a love for the finer things in life, loves to hit all the hot and happening places in town and is infuriatingly idealistic. Does that sound familiar to you, wait a minute! Isn't that exactly the same as... Ya, well, you have your answer. But still, let's explore some more of the Leo and Libra compatibility before we raise a toast to astrology and play matchmaker with all our Leo and Libra friends. Leo and Libra Compatibility Ranking Their compatibility is so harmonious (or has a potential of bliss and harmony) that it ranks right up there with karmically-blessed relationships. While Leo is a fire sign ruled by the magnanimous Sun, Libra is an air sign ruled by the serene Venus. Even here they are perfectly matched. While the Sun represents the masculine powers and bestows goodwill, kindness, and optimism, Venus represents femininity and bestows the perception of romance, nurturing, and diplomacy. As elements, air and fire feed off each other generating energy (heat), these two can make a hot couple! Before we move our article to the individual male and female compatibility, let us have a look at some of the balancing qualities of Leo and Libra that make them perfect for each other. Leo and Libra Characteristics Once we have a look at the individual characteristics of a Leo and Libra, there will be no more questions about their compatibility as things will be as clear as glass. Leo is bossy, temperamental, hard to handle, arrogant, and high-handed in his low points. On the other hand, Leo is gracious, magnanimous, aristocratic, helpful, confident, and charismatic on his good days. Libra is indecisive, difficult to understand, dodgy on his loyalties and shifty in opinions in his low points. On the other hand, Libra is fun-loving, kind, sensual, and touchingly sweet on his good days. What we have is a perfect match of pieces on the puzzle board. When Leo is throwing tantrums and working up his tirades, Libra is the silent observer and the diplomatic counselor (in other words, a person who calms the beast while still getting him to agree on his points without letting the beast know that he's actually buckled). On the other hand, when Libra is absolutely torn between two decisions and keeps shifting his opinions on something, Leo is perfect for giving him the gentle push in the right direction (obviously the direction that the cat wants the scales to tilt in). When Leo is going on one of his foolhardy 'splurge on the needy' campaigns or when Leo is up to his advice giving best, Libra is best for convincing him against the project in the former case and lending him a bored yet sympathetic ear in the latter. When the scales are down and weighing down heavily on the pessimistic side, the cat can liven up things and make things magically happen for the Libran. As I said, these two are good for each other. Libra needs to learn firmness, for his tendency to procrastinate and be indecisive can frustrate the Leo that cannot genuinely understand such behavior. On the other hand, Leo needs to learn to give Libra some space to breathe and stop coming down heavily on him, for he is definitely not as driven as you are. If Leo curbs or tones down his bossiness and Libra grows a little spine (so that he is not walked all over by the Leo), things should be smooth and well-oiled between the two. Let us now move on to the individual male and female astrology signs compatibility between Leo and Libra. Leo Woman and Libra Man Compatibility The Leo woman is truly blue-blooded, if not in this birth, sometime way back in one of her past lives. Like all of royalty, she expects to be treated with respect and be wooed with great pomp and preparation. The Libra man has loads of charm to go with his dimples. He has been trained by none other than the love goddess Venus in the art of love and romance. He is the best there is and so can never let her down. With these two, life is a ride of extravagance, love, romance and travel. It is never-ending parties, friends, world tours, and moonlit walks. As both of them derive love from each other, their bonds grow deeper and deeper with each moment they share together. The Libra man compliments, appreciates, and motivates, and the Leo woman returns the favor by loving deeply, warmly and genuinely. Sex between the two is nothing less than sizzling. The she-cat is feral in bed and the Libran is innovation and excitement incarnated. There's never a dull moment, neither in the bedroom, nor outside. With these two (provided they have the means) life is a grand party with loads of fun and champagne and friends to join the wine. Coming to friends, let me mention one thing that can make this relationship go horribly awry. While the Libran male is an 'innocent friends' person, the Leo female is definitely not. She is territorial and protects her territory by hook or crook. Unfortunately though, even without reason for the jealousy, the Leo female will take matters into her own hands and leave the Libran male's poor lady friends traumatized and scarred for life. Where's the Libran male you ask, oh well, he is right behind lady, not wanting to step in and get burnt himself, of course. For those of you that do not know, Leo women come with a 'too hot to handle, stay away, stay safe' caveat on their disclaimer tags. Leo Man and Libra Woman Compatibility A Leo man is very different from a Leo woman, much like the lions and lionesses in the wild. If you get my hint, Leo males tilt a tad towards the lazy side, are definitely territorial and have worse tantrums and table manners when compared to the females. Oh well, you win some, you lose some, for the confused Libra female finds a good, analytic decision maker, a smart business mind, and a strong protective arm to hold on to, in a Leo male. Libra females are such beautiful creatures, many a Leo male mistake them as just arm candy. Well, let's see who's at the top. If you encounter a Leo man, Libra woman together, you will see that he will glance at her in a crowd, before he declares an important decision. He will wait for her nod before he even leaves her to go to the bathroom. I am not demeaning Leo males, but Libra females have been given a captivating power by the gods that just grows on many a sane male. As smart as the male cats are, they just lose it a bit when it comes to their Libran mates. Yet, life's beautiful for these two. Once again, there are lots of friends, lots of parties, and many nights out. There is a lot of champagne and definitely many romantic travels. Yet, once back from their numerous trips, they will find the bliss they searched the world for, right there in each other's arms. The Libran woman does not mind her strong, solid Leo man, making all the decisions that so confuse her (this keeps Leo in charge and that keeps him happy). The Leo man does not begrudge the Libran female's opinions and actually consults them before taking his all important decisions (and that all the Libra female ever wanted, a fifty-fifty partnership). This makes for a long happy relationship, spiked up with a good deal of love and romance. In many a lasting relationship, time, and responsibilities often kill the romance and love, bit by bit, trickle by trickle. In this relationship though, that is not the case as they are immune to everything external of they themselves. They continue to keep the spirit of romance alive with child-like innocence, through the means of occasional love letters, frequent phone calls, teasing banter and a wink here, a look there and the entire works. Not everyone has this blessing.
