Leo and Sagittarius

 It’s such a rush just being with you.

This combination of fire zodiac signs is the ADHD of relationships. This is certainly a relationship that has a lot of oomph, it’s going to be inspiring, whimsical, and comes with a large degree of spontaneity. These are both star signs that live with heart and soul. They will embrace the opportunity to go on dates, and they will take a few risks in love as well. 

This is an opportunity neither of them wants to miss. They are immediately excited to know each other, and they want to move forward. This is a cosmic pair that will enjoy many adrenaline-packed activities together; they’ll rarely be sitting at home having a quiet evening. They will be travelling together, going on road trips, enjoying sporting events, and sometimes even managing to get in some conversation. 

However, this astrology match might be like travelling on a high-speed train, it’s all a bit of a blur. Although emotionally they feel fulfilled and have a lot of optimism about their potential future together, one wonders how well they really know each other. Have they taken the time to have heart-to-hearts, or to even concentrate on what the other is saying? 

These are both Sun signs that like to express opinions and have the last word and they are both intellectually competitive in that sense. 

While this cosmic match has intuitive attraction, there is not necessarily the meat on the bone in terms of core understanding. That’s why this relationship has a 60% chance of success. 

Romantic Compatibility 

I’m not quite sure I’d describe this relationship as romantic. It’s certainly not one of candlelit dinners, fireside chats, and traditional romance. It’s a more hectic style of romance where they’re eager to spend time together enjoying action-packed dates. 

When you have two fire signs together, there’s a high degree of enthusiasm and spontaneity. Their romance is all about seizing the moment, and sometimes the greatest thing about this relationship is the magic of taking life as it comes and enjoying the beauty of the moment together. 

These zodiac signs don’t like to overplan their dates, they prefer to allow things to happen and that’s why romance between them is spontaneous, and there is quite a lot of harmony romantically.

Another beauty of the romance between these two is that they are generous and complimentary to each other. They are likely to feel fairly rewarded through the relationship because there’s a lot of warmth and emotional spontaneity. 

Sexual Compatibility between Leo and Sagittarius 

This is a cosmic pair that have a lot of energy, but most of that energy will be spent pursuing interests and living life and often, there’s not that much left in the tank for their sexual experience. As I’ve said, they don’t like to plan things, so they prefer sex to be spontaneous, but the downside is, when they’re spontaneous, there’s not ever enough time to explore, understand each other, experiment, and spend that crucial intimate time really learning how to turn each other on. 

Their sex life can be a little bit slap dash, it’s something they don’t bother to put enough effort into, to understand what each other wants. 

What Leo wants in the bedroom is to feel truly loved and appreciated, and to receive empathy. Leo may feel unable to open up because Sagittarius doesn’t really understand their more tender side. That’s why Leo could close off. Sagittarius tends not to take enough time to get to know Leo deep down, so Leo stays a closed book in bed. 

For Sagittarius, they need someone to really spoil them in the bedroom and to make them feel totally needed. Sagittarius have insecurities when it comes to sex, so they need a partner who’s going to bring them out of their shell and reassure them about how deeply loved and cherished they are. While Leo can do this, Leo may not understand it’s needed, and therefore may presume that Sagittarius are fairly confident. Leo may not work on improving that emotional connection to make Sagittarius feel loved enough to experience fulfilling sex. 

Friendship Between Leo and Sagittarius

I would refer to these two as partners in crime, because together they can be daredevils and quite reckless. They will embrace many adventures, and together they can bring out a rebellious, devil-may-care attitude in each other. They will certainly have many fascinating experiences and create some awesome memories together. 

The problem is the relationship’s a little bit superficial. Neither of them really attempts to work at emotional understanding or nurturing each other. They will support each other, yes, but will they ever dig deeper into each other’s past, or take the time to look into the concealed aspects of each other’s character? 

Sometimes both these zodiac signs can be a little bit selfish, and they are often so focused on the here and now that they don’t ever take time to reflect. If they are able, as an older couple, to spend quiet moments having deeper discussions and cultivating the art of intimate conversation, then the friendship can become a lot broader and deeper, which is what it needs. 

Marriage and Long-Term Potential 

This is an astrology combination that manifests rather quickly and provides a lot of excitement. It could fizzle out like a fireworks display, leaving both feeling a little bit deflated however. One of the issues in this cosmic match is that the expectations are initially inflated, and it’s very difficult to sustain the initial excitement and energy. 

It’s likely that these two will always remain friends, and if they do part, it will be amicable. However, there’s less potential for them to walk down the aisle, simply because time has never been taken to deepen the communication and understanding. So, when difficult decisions have to be made and problems have to be solved, they haven’t laid the foundations of the relationship properly and therefore, it crumbles. 

This relationship is about two impulsive individuals, but also two people who don’t always think things through and plan. That’s why the relationship can run aground. It can lose direction, and it can lack a strong focus. 

At the end of the day, Sagittarius can be commitment-phobic, and Leo really wants certainty i.e. to be with someone who is devoted to them and who they can trust. Sagittarius seems to spread themselves around too thinly, and Leo doesn’t get enough attention. 

Sagittarius wants a quirky, witty communicator who is also free-spirited, but Leo has a personality that is a lot more focused on commitment, loyalty, and is far less flexible. 

Leo can also be very possessive and jealous when with a Sagittarian who’s not giving them enough emotional validation, which is a problem in the medium and long term. 

Strengths and Challenges 

With two fire signs, the great strength is a high level of excitement and a very entertaining romance. We have two vibrant star signs that mirror each other’s positivity and energy, meaning they feel like the world is their oyster together. These are both zodiac signs who love life, who are fairly sociable, and who have a competitive attitude. Together they can achieve a lot, and they should experience a varied lifestyle with lots of travelling and opportunities to fulfil dreams and ambitions together. 

There’s a significant generosity of spirit between these two. They bounce back very quickly from disappointments and they’re very resilient as a couple. As both have a high degree of optimism, they are really the perfect couple to manifest together. They are unlikely to want to hold each other back, and the generosity of spirit means they’re also rather forgiving toward each other. 

The challenge is that communication is neglected at a core level. They don’t understand what each other needs. Leo is a much more sensitive, sometimes vulnerable creature inside, who needs a partner who is able to nurture them and give them a lot of encouragement and affection to make them feel needed. Sagittarius likes people that are emotionally more self-sufficient, who can self-soothe and self-analyse. Sagittarius can become emotionally exhausted with Leo. 

Leo doesn’t understand that Sagittarius always sees the big picture and doesn’t care much for details. Leo thinks the neglect of details is inconsiderate. The relationship can be romantic and vibrant, but it’s not necessarily loving. Sagittarius may think that Leo is too demanding, and they may feel trapped in the relationship over time. 

Leo could perhaps become the more possessive partner and may want to control Sagittarius, while Sagittarius wants to remain a free spirit. Leo finds Sagittarius a little bit unreliable, which can make them retreat into a passive-aggressive mode. Leo is likely to feel a little neglected. 

There is a danger that they will sometimes try to sweep things under the carpet or tell each other what they want to hear. In the short term, this could work, in the long term, they’re storing up a lot of problems. One day they’ll discover that they really didn’t know each other at all, simply because they were too busy living life, not experiencing or investigating the full extent of each other’s nature. 

Final Verdict 

I totally recommend this relationship for those who are looking for a fling, a long-distance relationship, or if you are coming out of a long-term relationship or divorce and just want something that’s free-flowing, fun, and can bring you a positive vibe and some feisty romance. 

If you are out there looking for long-term commitment, this is probably a relationship to be a little bit sceptical about. There are many positives in the initial phases of the relationship, and it can be flamboyant, fun, and very, very exciting, but over time the cracks show, because there are big differences in terms of what they both need from a partner to feel secure and fulfilled. 

Leo will struggle in this relationship over time because they get increasingly jealous because Sagittarius loves their freedom. Sagittarius will struggle over time because of the lack of adequate communication. Leo can be a little bit selfish and may do more talking than listening. 

This relationship can survive if they both make an effort to communicate, particularly about emotional and intimate matters, and they show a strong desire to get to know each other rather than just having fun together. This relationship is vastly improved if either has a Virgo or Taurus Moon, or alternatively if there is a Libra or Pisces rising.

This zodiac match has a 60% chance of long-term success. 

Any star sign match is, of course, modified greatly by the Ascendant, Moon, and Venus signs — which will give more bearing on affectionate, sexual, and spiritual compatibility.
