Leo and Capricorn in love
Fire is spontaneous and earth is steady, so the attraction comes from difference – and so do the arguments.
Leo loves generously and romantically: warm, loyal and playful, and happiest with a partner who shows admiration openly. Capricorn loves seriously and steadily: reserved at first, then committed for the long term, building a future step by step.
As friends
Fire gets earth out of the house; earth helps fire keep its feet on the ground.
At work
A useful mix if fire sets the pace and earth handles the plan. One starts things (cardinal) and one sees them through (fixed): a good division of labour if neither tries to rule.
Strengths and watch-outs
- Best together: balance between action and patience.
- Leo brings: generous, warm-hearted and confident. Capricorn brings: responsible, ambitious and patient.
- Watch out for: different speeds – agree on plans and money early.
