From the onset of comparing these two particular fixed and very stubborn signs, it may be a difficult task for them to truly relate and understand each other.  There are lessons to learn from one another when experiencing a relationship together, but often they are hard lessons.  In order to understand more about their differences, one must realize that Leo’s fire is met with Scorpio’s watery intensity.  Sparks may fly when the initial attraction between them intensely initiates, but as the relationship progresses, compatibility may be lacking.  It can be difficult for either of them to easily forget or forgive.

You must understand that physical attraction plays an important role for both Leo and Scorpio.  However, Scorpio places high priority on finances.  Leo, on the other hand, may get carried away with lavish spending sprees, something a Scorpio may not tolerate.  Leo can be very open and vocal when expressing opinions, and Scorpio prefers remaining secretive.  They must learn to give in and balance their differences quite often, yet neither may find it an easy task.

Placing a Scorpio with a Leo makes for emotional resistance coupled with stubborn pride.  Sounds like a real work out, doesn’t it?  Let’s explain why this often occurs between these two.  Scorpio wants to control, Leo wants to be the boss. Who’s going to win? Scorpio should never dictate demands or put limits on Leo, as Leo may utter, “Oh no I won’t!” with as mush resistance in return.  Scorpio must never tell Leo what to do.  Perhaps simply asking them first will accomplish much more.  Leo must learn to tone down their dramatic flamboyant style, since Scorpio may end up taking Leo’s approach the wrong way, thinking Leo wants to take charge of situations.  Once you can understand these basic differences and work to cooperate with each other, these blockages should subside.

Scorpio is attracted to one who displays a superior persona at which Leo is an expert.  The more constant challenges Leo gives Scorpio the more determined Scorpio is to win you over.  Leo will experience a tinge of jealousy and possessiveness from Scorpio, because they want you all to themselves.

When these two signs need to air out their differences, you best be certain to do so in private.  Leo likes to look good in public, while Scorpio strongly dislikes any secrets disclosed. Keep your private lives private.  That’s one thing for certain these two will agree upon.  Scorpio will never tell, but Leo may divulge if their pride is hurt.  Remember these two signs are not versatile or changeable.  They resist change, finding it too difficult to deal with, unless they are the one writing the script or directing the play.
