This can be a very warm and mutually fulfilling relationship. Both of you are romantics at heart and tend to be "in love with love". You both need and love romantic gestures, the giving and receiving of gifts, etc. Personal appearances and attractiveness is important to both of you as well, and you both are somewhat vain.
Leo is more decisive and very clear about personal preferences and desires, while Libra is more flexible and will compromise graciously in order to please Leo. Leo is more self-absorbed or self-centered than Libra. Of the two of you, Leo is the stronger individual, and the balance of power in your relationship may be somewhat lopsided. However, Libra has a highly developed sense of fairness and equality, and will protest sooner or later if Leo begins to expect obeisance all of the time.
Libra's social life improves with Leo; there is attraction and the Signs are compatible. Leo affects that part of your chart having to do with friends, hopes and wishes. With Leo, you are going to get out and around; new friends, revised desires, a more outward view are indicated. Leo sparks your creative urge. The Leo Sun and your Venus combine to make you an envied couple. The relationship is largely built on romance and illusion. Much of it can be considered beautiful; some of it is wishful thinking.
Neither Leo nor Libra takes kindly to criticism; flaws repel both signs. Both you and Leo will have to be aware of the other's sensitivity.
For you, Leo represents a bright spot, although some of Leo's claims, aspirations and activities could leave you slightly agape. The two signs together - Libra and Leo - tend to become involved in some unbelievable situations. The key is to separate illusion from actuality. With Leo, you tend to see people and situations in a rosy kind of glow; there is danger of self-deception. It's important to know what is real and what is illusion, to transform imagination into a genuine creative force. Otherwise, disillusion sets in and the relationship could suffer. Your innate sense of balance must be called into play.
Leo is showmanship and a bright light; you are gentle and romantic. Together, there is beautiful music, but there are some practical considerations. For example, it probably will fall to your lot to watch the budget. Leo can be extravagant. You enjoy this to a degree, but you must also know when and where to draw the line.
Libra and Leo seek perfection. When practical matters impinge on the relationship, the durability of the combination rests on whether or not there is sufficient maturity.
There is romance, beauty, and adventure here.

Both Leo and Libra possess exceptionally warm characters, but the compatibility for a favorable union between these two simply seems to be lacking.
Leo enjoys a good fight and an arguing match serves to clear the air for those governed by this Sign, but does little (if anything) to thrill the soul of the peace-loving and harmonious Libra. Here, any attempts to discuss differences in a calm fashion will undoubtedly be met by the fiery temper of Leo...something the Libra individual finds ugly, unbalanced and uncongenial.
By nature, those ruled by Leo will not face any decision making unless it is a pressing concern and Libra will likely perceive this attitude as irresponsible and decidedly unloving. As might be expected, this will provoke even more friction.
Since those governed by Libra worry most about a loss of youth and attractiveness, they are prone to being flirtatious...usually for reassurance when they receive a positive response. However, this is sure to en cite a strong possessive and jealous streak in the Leo partner, who will totally horrify Libra with his or her outbursts regarding Libra's harmless actions. Both are "on again/off again" workers and will spend long periods simply lazing around doing nothing. Yet, neither will recognize their own trait in their mate, resulting in the hurling of insults of indolence at each other.
In a romantically physical sense, the appetites here are about equal. Libra desires glamor and fantasy in the arena of intimacy, looking to his or her mate to furnish such and if this need is not met, Libra is almost sure to begin searching elsewhere. The Leo approach to an intimate relationship could be one that is direct and straightforward and, with a different partner, might enter the realm of fantasy. With Libra, however, his or her physical desires are unlikely to be expressed to the fullest extent due to the many hours spent arguing and bickering.
In essence, this is probably a relationship that should be avoided since it can result in the type of situation that often breeds abuse...if not physically, then at least mentally and verbally.
On the surface, the Leo/Libra partnership promises to be an agreeable one since these two Signs are situated apart in the Zodiac.
There will be an understanding by both partners of the inner workings of the other and if Leo's unbounded energy can blend favorably with Libra's natural sense of harmony, the end result could be one of great balance.
Leo and Libra are both outlandish as opposed to reserved, and a smooth union could result given that each has the ability to appreciate and benefit from the positive attributes of the other. Libra does possess the power to calm and soothe his or her flamboyant Leo partner and there is potential for this couple to be well-balanced, provided Libra is able to lay on sufficient charm and good manners to tame Leo's direct and acerbic personality.
Being the more decisive of the pair, the Leo mate can help Libra to make decisions more easily and act upon them...to say nothing of being capable of teaching the fine art of spontaneity.
In essence, this combination may or may not make for a good match and it will depend on many varying factors.
The hale and hearty nature of Leo may prove to be too overwhelming for the more sensitive Libra, even though the pair have much in common that could result in a favorable relationship.
Here, both individuals adore luxuries, flattery and are artistically inclined. However, Leo does demand constant adulation and that will undoubtedly create problems within the union
Oct 4, 2008 This is a fun look at a Libran/Leo relationship but remember, the sun sign is just a small part of anyone’s birth chart and that’s why no-one is wholly typical of their sign. If you are Libran, this is how you might see a Leo.
Libra and Leo Compatibility
As a Libran, you are ruled by the planet Venus. This loving planet also encourages you to enjoy the good things in life and there's no sign better than a Leo to enjoy these with. Leos are generous and loving by nature. They know how to cast serious matters aside and have fun. Leos are well aware that there is a time for work (and they do work hard) and a time for play. And when they play - they really do let their hair down.
As a Libran you are a romantic and Leo, too, is a passionate and amorous lover. He or she will be loyal and although Leos do like some independence, they won't stray too far away from their partner. Leo will encourage you to keep them up to date with all the gossip that's going on in your life and Leo will take a keen interest in your activities, involvements and friendships.
Libra and Leo as Friends
Because you both have wonderfully caring and sharing personalities, there should be no trouble getting this relationship to work. Both physically and emotionally you will respond to each other's needs and feelings. Mentally, too, you meet at a similar level when there's always plenty to talk about whenever you're together. Perhaps you have a more soft and sentimental side which your Leo partner doesn't always appreciate. But it's rare that he or she will say or do things to upset you and when this does occur, it's usually because they've not really thought about what they are saying or doing.
There are many common interests here and a shared love of the arts will help form a basis for your romance to build on. You both enjoy the physical side of loving and you are both caring and outgoing in nature.
Libra and Leo Lovers
It is hardly surprising that you have fallen for your Leo partner. He or she will know exactly how to 'turn on the charm' to have members of the opposite sex swooning at their feet! You must not, therefore, be jealous or possessive when your partner insists on continuing his or her social relationships outside your partnership. Just be sure that you gain the same kind of freedom too!
There are many hobbies and interests you will enjoy sharing with each other and on the whole, this should be a basically compatible relationship. But your partner does tend to get "all worked up" and "fiery" about things and you may find their sudden outbursts of temper disturbing when you are such a peace-loving soul! Yes, when the Fire side of your partner's nature makes itself known, you won't really want to stand up for yourself. You'll prefer to do anything for the sake of harmony but this might frustrate your Leo lover who may have been looking forward to a good argument!
Libra and Leo Relationship Summary
Leo is a passionate and down to earth sign. You're a dreamer and you need romance. Leo will shower you with gifts, flowers and all sorts of wonderfully loving gestures. Is it any wonder then that your Leo partner has wormed their way into your heart!
