Leo and Virgo 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. Virgo shows love through care and practical help: thoughtful and loyal, with high standards and a need to feel useful.

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. The fixed sign gives stability and the mutable sign brings flexibility – a steadying mix.
