Relationships between Aries and Leo

The Bible says that if a lamb lies down with a lion, one should expect either the end of the world or a thousand-year peace. A combination of both is possible, however.

What doesn't happen!

However, one would like to hope for the best.

Aries are winners by nature.

They keep a detailed list of their victories.

Whatever the competition (love, friendship, business or family life), they love to win. This exalts them in their own eyes.

Leo, on the contrary, does not need to prove his superiority. Leo is the king of beasts, and, of course, he is born to rule in love, friendship, business or family life.

This circumstance also exalts Leo in his own eyes, of course, with less expenditure of strength and energy.

The question is whether there is enough room on the summit to which each of them rises.

Of course, in a large arena, where there is plenty of room, both could win their share of enthusiastic applause.

But if we are talking about a smaller field of activity, such as, for example, an office, a classroom, an apartment or a house, they will almost certainly become cramped. Something will have to be sacrificed. More precisely, someone's boundless ambition.

Tact in such things can mislead someone. A well-timed, frank remark does not hurt so much. We are talking about the ambition of the Ram, who will have to submit and bow before his majesty Leo, because Leo, like the Lioness, is born to command, to command, born to be first, born Free! Free from the need to submit to anyone, including the government, tax authorities, employers, teachers, neighbors, friends, relatives, astrologers - everyone, especially the quarrelsome Rams.

Aries should be consoled by the knowledge that he is capable of defeating all other Sun signs (maybe except for Scorpio).

But not all is lost for him. (Aries never thinks that all is lost, and sees difficulties as temporary misunderstandings.)

When I said that Aries is incapable of winning over Leo, I meant a public triumph. In private, Rams can get anything from the "big cat" by simply agreeing to listen respectfully to Leo's long instructions, lavishing praise, and keeping their own thoughts and intentions to themselves. The first is easy.

Aries likes to cheer people up, to shower them with compliments when they admire them. However, keeping their intentions secret is too difficult for most Rams.

Aries like to brag when they win an election, receive a prize at a carnival, or prevail in an argument.

There is too much boasting in this double combination of Sun and Fire, and Leo may withdraw with an air of injured dignity if he is offended or pushed into the shadows.

Both are too painful for the proud Leo.

If Leo or Lioness is in a situation where such a pompous exit is impossible (for example, if we are talking about a minor child or spouse), he or she will sit sulkily in the corner, licking the wounds inflicted on their vanity, looking at everyone with sad, reproachful eyes.

But even in such a situation, Leo can roar and furiously pounce on the offender.

How this will end is not difficult to guess. It is safer for the Ram to let Leo think that he is the invariable winner in any competition between them.

No living creature can be as generous as the emotionally and physically pampered Leo.

Pampering is a talent in which Aries is definitely inferior to him.

Aesop in his fables shows how easily a lower animal, the jackal, deals with a lion.

When the lion becomes enraged and begins to roar at him in great anger, the cunning jackal quickly returns the royal favor, reminding him that he is the King of the Jungle.

The ruler of all animals and therefore should not take the lowly jackal seriously.

The difficulty is that the Ram is not a jackal.

Aries would rather tell the Leo in the heat of battle that he should either surrender or get out, and thus drive both into a dead end.

Since surrender is absolutely impossible for Leo, and to leave the battlefield is to show oneself a coward (and what true monarch ever retreated?). The Leo or Lioness has no choice but to roar loudly and with increasing fury.

In the end, when Aries finally understands that even the steep horns of the Ram are not able to shake this magnificent courage and steadfastness (emotional, moral and physical) of Leo, they are left with only abuse, which can last indefinitely, for both of these Sun signs are great lovers of dramatic monologues and poses.

However, although Leo wins in the end, he is not one of those who intimidate and who are always ready to seize the trophy and grind the loser into dust.

Both Leo and Lioness are distinguished by their generosity and nobility towards the defeated.

Of course, it is necessary to keep in mind that the Ram does not know how to lose gracefully.

But if he learns this, he will be able to get along with Leo.

This couple is harmonious from the point of view of astrology, is under the influence of the magical combination of the Solar signs, and therefore each realizes that his partner in many qualities surpasses all the people known to him.

Since they rarely lack sincere admiration for each other, when peace comes and hostilities cease, they are always ready to make vows to each other (of course, in dramatic form) in eternal submission and admiration.

But only until the next battle.

And then it all starts again.

In the family circle, in the classroom or office, when they are lovers or legal spouses, the relationship between them can be warm and happy, as long as Aries himself wants to look at Leo as a mentor, advisor and teacher and as long as Leo surrounds Aries with the cozy warmth of tender care and kindness that people under the influence of the Sun are so capable of. In general, this will be a successful union, even if not always calm.

Leo will be a treasure trove of sincere and unusual compliments, and Aries needs this like air.

And vice versa.

Both Aries and Leo not only need to be appreciated — they demand it.

If one of them has an aggressive Moon sign or Ascendant, their skirmishes can be more serious and painful, but even in this case, the ability to forgive will always help to find a way out of the situation.

One of the stumbling blocks can be Leo's long lectures, which often begin with the words: "Now listen to me, and I will explain how wrong you are." Since the Ram is already constantly having to resist various self-confident people, the prospect of spending the whole evening in such an environment can cause a short outburst of Mars's temperament... But I will share with you one secret.

In fact, Aries, deep down, trusts Leo very much and sincerely appreciates the advice that he likes to give even without any reason, most likely because Leo is often driven by true love and concern. Rams, of course, need guidance veiled in tenderness and affection.

If only Aries could get Leo to do something, rather than just command, the relationship between them would become even smoother.

Aries does not tolerate orders, and it will take a lot of effort to learn to be more flexible and make Leo do something, but this is simply necessary, otherwise the struggle for power will turn into endless squabbles.

With mutual respect between them, an unusual, unique relationship is possible, because Leo senses a hidden insecurity behind Aries' bright, daring exterior, and Aries, in turn, finds himself dependent on his partner not because of Leo's more organized mind and reliability, but because of the property of his solar nature to impart warmth and significance to every moment of life. The Ram knows how sensitive and tender the Leo's heart is, despite the outward bravado.

Both are predominantly dynamic personalities, striving to live life to the fullest, not to miss anything.

They know that up there, far from everything banal and earthly, even the stars fade.

And although their goals may be different, unless one of them received the Moon or Ascendant at birth in a more financially cautious Sun sign (for example, Cancer, Scorpio, or one of the three Earth signs), they are both confident that they will achieve their goal.

We have the right to accept the world that others have created, or to imagine something new. Aries and Leo are more likely to come up with something new, perhaps what they dreamed of in their childhood dreams.

One way or another, having met, they begin to dream, and at least they will not be bored.
