Aquarius is drawn to Leo's warmth and vitality, and Leo is drawn to Aquarius's uniqueness, intelligence, and savvy. There are significant differences between you though. Aquarius's colleagues, associates, and large social circle of friends and acquaintances is a very important part of Aquarius's life, while Aquarius's need for close, personal relationships is not as great as Leo's. This characteristic is also reflected in your relationship! Aquarius may seem cool and aloof to Leo. From Aquarius's perspective, Leo takes life too personally and seems to dramatise events, idolise individuals, and, in general, be too self-absorbed. You are truly opposites in many ways and can certainly benefit from one another's attitudes and insights.
Leo has an inner desire to be special and important, to shine and be the centre of attention, to direct or lead rather than follow. Leo wants to stand out from the crowd in some way, and is generally not a team player. Aquarius on the other hand, needs to be part of a group or community. The fellowship, the togetherness, and the group solidarity are very satisfying and meaningful to Aquarius, whether or not Aquarius is the focus of attention.
Leo wants to be in control and can be very authoritarian (in a magnanimous sort of way, as in a "benign dictatorship"), but Aquarius has a rather rebellious, freedom-loving nature and resists Authority. Though having no desire to be on top, Aquarius will not be complaint or domesticated either.
Also, Leo is loyal, intensely personal, and rather narcissistic, while Aquarius can be rather cool and impartially fair. Leo sometimes feels hurt by being treated "just like everyone else"!
Living a secure, conventional, predictable life is not high on the priority list for either of you! Both of you are nonconformists and will rebel against being dictated to or forced into someone else's precast mould. You share a revolutionary spirit, ideals of liberation and freedom, and a tendency to shake people up a bit when you express your true impulses.
Both of you can be very self-willed and difficult to tame or domesticate - there is a wild side to you both. You are apt to appreciate the quirks and the unusual interests and inclinations of one another, which others might find odd or disturbing or too "far out". Together you may not be very settled, but you won't be bored either.
Excitement, upsets, and unpredictability are major themes in your relationship. If either of you is looking for a stable, secure, predictable, conservative relationship, then you will be very disappointed. Be prepared for an unusual relationship that does not fit any of your stereotypes. You need to also give each other a lot of freedom and independence; if you try to "own" each other, you will both become extremely uncomfortable, eventually causing the relationship to explode apart. You spur each to be more creative, inventive, and original. You inspire each other to be less inhibited, to experiment more, and explore new possibilities. This is a relationship that will never be boring! The constant excitement and changes may leave one, or both, of you feeling a bit frazzled and disoriented.
Despite your differences, you work together very well in practical matters, planning, organising, developing or communicating ideas, and your differing viewpoints are not likely to be a serious problem.
Your feelings towards each other change quickly and you often react to each other rather impulsively. When the mood is right, you find each other sexually irresistible, but at other times you get on each other's nerves. You may feel like you fall in and out of love on a monthly basis! It seems that you are either making love, fighting with each other, or indifferent to each other, and you may sometimes wish for greater constancy. Your domestic life is likely to be very unstable. If you can be flexible and flow with the fluctuating feelings, this relationship can be exciting and fascinating - otherwise your patience will wear thin and you will perceive your relationship as hopelessly unstable and your partner as unreliable and untrustworthy.
There is a powerful magnetism between you, and probably a strong sexual attraction as well. If romantic attraction is strong, you may go through periods of feeling compulsive and obsessive about each other. The emotions involved are complex, however, and the bond between you, while quite strong, is not necessarily harmonious.
Aquarius, at times can be bored by Leo's direct approach towards love making. Aquarius likes a wider range of sexual expression, rather than the wham-bang routine.
Leo may confuse and undermine Aquarius's confidence in a subtle way, without intending to do so. Aquarius feels unsure, befuddled, or mystified at times by Leo. Leo can influence Aquarius to be less careful than usual also. A business or working partnership is unlikely to work out well, but your personal relationship will not suffer if both of you really work at being honest, clear, and unambiguous about your intentions and desires. Otherwise, things become rather foggy between you.
