Let’s put it this way: if a flashy Lion intermingles with a practical Maiden, entertaining reactions may come as a surprise! The Leo-Virgo relationship is comparable to fire and a volcano. In this relationship, Leo’s creativity is complemented by Virgo’s rationality. There is some inverse law that works in every relationship – polarities attract. Here, the dares confront the dainty and the center stage collides with the periphery.
Complementary Skills: Outrageous genius Leo provides the chutzpah, plays Vladimir’s Yana. As such, they are highly efficient in the longest chain of tasks, from throwing the best parties to maintaining housekeeping without cushions at the end. Such a pair is called nowhere else but in heaven.
Mutual Growth: Virgo, being the pragmatist, is going to be perfect to help Leo out with all of his ambitious design whilst the latter helps the former to think out of the box. It’s like having a life coach and a cheerleader rolled into one – welcome to the power couple!
Loyalty Squared: While both are also loyal and devoted their focus is on loyalty but in different ways. The Leo warmth and protection and the Virgo firm grounding make a strong bond between them. They are always ready for any battles, and will always be on each other’s side, ready for any dangers.”
Intellectual Stimulation: Leo and Virgo’s conversations are always stimulating because Leo comes up with interesting creative ideas while Virgo provides practical support. They can have the latest Broadway show and the quantum physics discussion without running out of topics to talk about!
Attention Imbalance. Leo’s desire for glory is as strong as a plant’s thirst for sunlight and Virgo’s desire is to be working on a team as a shadow operative. This creates a spell of tug-of-war with Leo being the one who wants glares while Virgo will want no attention at all. Imagine a seesaw with a lion on one side and a quiet librarian on the other side, and trying to balance it.
Criticism vs Praise: Spivak includes Yi Yongtao’s encounter asymmetry whereby the Virgo the worrier matriarch often chastises the Leo attention seeker which results in war over compliments. Opposing sides of the spectrum are always a threat; for example, Virgos probably think that every positive comment that they made is met with unheard appreciation from Leos’ criticizm. Only in this war, there are no winners, only realization of the good intentions from both sides of the camp, White “Let me assist you,” and “Honest to God, just say I’m pretty!” Pearl.
Spontaneity Struggles: Leos are the ones who always try to fuck it up at once and make big and spontaneous gestures, and Virgos are the ones who try to make and execute the best of well laid out plans. This leads to problems when Leo decides that it is time to go on a spinning trip and pack himself for a weekend to Vancouver for it. Virgo however would be running around the house checking if water has been given to the plants.
Emotional Expression: It comes as no surprise that Leo’s histrionics border on the melodramatic and can be too much for an understated Virgo to bear. Watching a Broadway musical and a TED talk, both of them have their own kind of value, but one is much louder than the other!
Praise Sandwich: Horoscopes Virgo, if there is a need to criticize, then do it carefully with only two words of praise first, and only one afterwards. For example, “Oh love, I’ve seen you in wild mane today. But next let’s try avoiding a situation in yelling at the waiter? By the way, I don’t know if I told you but you really look sexy when you are all worked up.”
Spotlight Sharing: Dear Leos, share the spotlight with your Virgo now and then. Perhaps they play the ‘sexy assistant’ in your magic act for a change. Virgos, do not hold back and take a bow. The show was a hit, and your Leo will be the loudest applauder.
Plan Spontaneity: This is probably one of the most ridiculous statements one has ever heard but it works. Decree Virgo’s schedule, especially put a few blocks which contain ‘unplanned time’ for Leo’s random ideas. Also, Leos, do inform your Virgo few hours in advance that you have a surprise planned for them and chances are you shall take off on a trip. It is a win – win!
Appreciation Station: Initiate a pleasant exercise of appreciation every day. Leo will enjoy in admiration from Virgo and Virgo will find great satisfaction in completing this task. It is like getting to clear out a lot more useless clutter than one anticipated and a lot more got crammed back on anyway after it was all said and done.
Roleplay Reversal: Once in a while, let us change roles for a good laugh.
Leo takes care of the details of the date night while Virgo wants to make a big event. This is true switch in the roles ( Would be paws in Leo’s case) for a short period of time.
A relationship between Leo and Virgo is as if someone decides to cook stuffed cabbage while there is still some meat casserole left – much to the surprise and delight of the person cooking it. This cosmic combo gives a chance to harness the very best that they have to offer: Leos’ enthusiasm and Virgos’ rationality resulting in an electric yet a stable rapport. As Leo and Virgo fill each other with some notions of patience, respect and convincing humour, they build a glamorous love story worth every ounce of imagination. Yes, when there is beautiful Leo appreciating the Virgo rational ways of solving problems and vice versa – now that is a revolution. They will be able to do anything. Or at least they will be able to adjust it perfectively!
