You both have a very childlike, playful, fun-loving side that is brought out when you are together. You both love drama and colour, and you find one another to be delightful and interesting. Gemini is more intellectual than Leo, however, and needs a variety of people, activities, and interests in order to be happy. Leo wants to be the most important person in Gemini's life, and may not appreciate all of Gemini's other interests and friendships. Leo makes commitments and keeps them better than Gemini does because Leo is less restless. Once having found something good, Leo sticks with it, and doesn't completely understand Gemini's desire for novelty. Also, Leo is very proud and has a sensitive ego, while Gemini can be a merciless teaser and doesn't always take Leo seriously. For the most part, however, you are great friends and can be very compatible lovers.
Leo is usually sunny and upbeat, and has a fun-loving, child-like side that Gemini brings to the fore. Gemini is humorous, witty, and rather detached emotionally, able to see the funny or ironic side in any situation, and often unable to resist joking even at the most inappropriate times. Gemini doesn't take life (or sometimes other peoples' feelings) too seriously. This can be offensive to Leo, for Leo has a strong sense of pride, a need to be appreciated, and, yes, taken seriously at least sometimes!
For the most part, however, you get along and complement one another quite well. One difference between you is that Leo is emotionally steadier and more constant, while Gemini's interests and feelings fluctuate and change quite frequently.
There is a great deal of compatibility between you for you understand and are in harmony with one another's basic needs, aims, and approach to life. You build up, encourage, and affirm one another's worth and self-esteem, and you find one another's company very comfortable and natural. This is a mutually beneficial relationship.
You are drawn to one another because you instinctively understand each other. There are strong feelings of belonging, closeness, and acceptance between you. You blend and merge with one another very easily and a strong mutual interdependence is likely to develop very quickly. Gemini, especially, feels affirmed and strengthened by Leo's support and "backing". Because of the deep affinity between you, you are more motivated and more able to overcome any problems or differences that arise in your relationship.
The emotional bond between you is very complex. Sexual attraction is strong and you find each other to be very magnetic or highly charismatic. But you also will find yourself becoming uncomfortable with various deeply ingrained habits and attitudes of each other as you learn more about each other. You are simultaneously attracted and repulsed by each other. You evoke intense emotional responses from each other and if you want this relationship to be a long-lasting one, you will have to be very careful because a
blow-up in the relationship can be triggered by jealousy, acts of unkindness, or simply the unwillingness of either of you to change deeply ingrained habits that are offensive to each other. In short, this is an emotionally intense relationship that blows hot and cold, drives you to emotional extremes, and challenges your deepest, most personal and important attitudes and habits.
Sensual body massaging may stimulate the both of you and your approach to love making can be direct and friendly. You can be generous with one another in more ways than one.
Unselfishness, tolerance, and forgiveness flow readily between you, helping to ease the ameliorate any problems you face together. Your relationship has a strong idealistic and platonic quality. Even if you are involved sexually, the focus with the two of you is not primarily physical, but subtle, soulful, and spiritual in nature. You have high standards for your friendship and may expect yourselves or one another to be the
'perfect friend',
all-giving and always impeccable in your dealings with each other. For the most part you both try to live up to these lofty images, and to not taint your relationship with selfish or mundane considerations.
The psychic tie is strong between you, too. You may experience an unusual ability to "read" one another, send messages to one another telepathically, and so on. Any interest you have in the metaphysical or imaginative arts will be highlighted, and become an important focus in your relationship.
