I think we're perfect for each other.

Pisces & Leo

When Leo and Pisces join together in a love match, each partner enjoys the new perspective the other brings to life in general (yep!). Leo is a strong and assertive Sign, being free to do what they want and taking command of their surroundings. Pisces is quieter (not always ...) and more reserved and introspective. In many ways the two are polar opposites (he's also a "red-blue" person, while I'm a typical "yellow-green"), yet both are dreamers at heart (agreed). When they care for one another, they each fill the other's voids and have a caring, mutually beneficial relationship (definitely fills my void, at least).

Leo is a natural leader and in a relationship with Pisces often becomes the guardian of their weaker partner (ok, I'm not weak, but I do appreciate his being protective of me). Pisces, in turn, gives Leo the audience they need for their ambitions and social performances. Pisces is a Sign that, like Water, fills whatever container it is poured into (I try to be flexible, haha!). Pisces tends to give themselves over to their love match (I'll give anything); a kind heart allows The Fish to know Leo in a way that many other Signs don't (I do try to understand -- see?). Leo's straight forwardness coupled with that doesn't pass into conceit (rephrase: "Leo's straight-forwardness will not pass into conceit when coupled with Pisces' characteristics, while Pisces will not be overly shy when mixed with a Leo.") -- the way Leo alone might act -- and isn't overly shy, like Pisces alone may be.

Leo is ruled by The Sun and Pisces is ruled by the Planet Jupiter. Pisces is also ruled by Neptune. The Sun gives out light, life and a focus on the Self to the Leo-Pisces relationship. Neptune is about big pictures, ideas and illusions; but it's also involved with disillusion and fantasy. Leo can help Pisces turn fantasies into realities (Yes, like the "yellows" need some "reds" sometimes for focus). Neptune works through Pisces by softening Leo's sometimes self-centered and abrupt actions (YES!), channeling their energy into a more creative and fruitful outlet.

Leo is a Fire Sign and Pisces is a Water Sign (I'm his Yin, and he's my Yang). These two can be very happy and progressive if they recognize the other's needs, using introspection and creative ambition to tend to matters of the heart. Pisces can help Leo learn to be humble and to think of the needs of others, while Leo teaches Pisces to go out into the world and begin to loosen up a bit (true). But Pisces can be too emotional (yes, I tend to go up and down and hormonal), too much Water dampening Leo's enthusiasm. Conversely, too much Fire can boil the Water and leave Pisces emotionally burned. Leo and Pisces must establish effective communication in order to ensure their balance is maintained (haha! couldn't be more true).

Leo is a Fixed Sign and Pisces is a Mutable Sign. Pisces doesn't serve well as the boss (well, some things are conditional and trainable). They get their greatest satisfaction from bettering the universe, starting with their partner. Leo, on the other hand, comes up with ideas in the first place and suggests little changes to be made here and there in the relationship (oh, we both do).

What's the best aspect of the Leo-Pisces relationship? It's their receptiveness to one another's teachings. Pisces shows Leo how to be sensitive and care, and Leo teaches Pisces to make their dreams happen rather than sitting on them. Their ability provide what the other needs makes theirs a truly mutual relationship (it's amazing).
