Leo’s creativity and passion will draw a Pisces man to her, while his ability to listen and his tangible signs of affection—via gift-giving and PDA—make him irresistible to Leo. But while fixed-sign Leo is intense and specific with her loyalty and devotion, Pisces is kind and understanding toward everyone, which can make Leo insecure. And Pisces’ need for solitude and flexibility will clash with Leo’s tendency to be overbearing and controlling.^{[1]

Pisces’ emotional fluidity complements Leo’s emotional intensity. Pisces men have the ability to adapt their emotions to reflect a Leo woman’s dominating personality. But Pisces’ gentleness is likely to rub off on Leo, giving her the ability to be calmer and more easygoing, and Leo’s pride will help Pisces nurture his own self-confidence. With Leo’s encouragement, a Pisces man will develop a strong and self-assured voice.
- Leo, be careful: your intensity and aggression can also turn gentle Pisces away! Your Pisces man admires your passion and creativity, but your ability to become aggressive is likely to clash with his sensitive nature.^{[5]

- Pisces, unlike other signs, is ruled by dual planets Neptune (in modern astrology) and Jupiter (in traditional astrology). These planets give him his ultra-romantic, dreamy, and optimistic edge.^{[11]

- Meanwhile, Leo is unique for being ruled not by a planet, but the sun itself—the star all of the other planets, including Neptune and Jupiter, revolve around. (If this sounds like a metaphor for Leo's need for constant worship, it is!)^{[12]

Leo’s domineering attitude can turn Pisces off if she takes it too far. While her confidence and strong sense of self draw Pisces to her, the shadow side of her intensity is quickness to anger and desire to control—qualities Pisces does not respond well to. Romantic, caring Pisces will try his hardest to be as close as possible to his Leo lady and do what he can to show he cares—but, just like the fish that represents him, he needs fluidity, room to swim.^{[14]

- Leo, to keep the relationship healthy, you'll have to give Pisces a longer leash than you want to. It may help for you both to schedule alone time for Pisces into your week so that you may grow accustomed to his need for freedom.
- Pisces, you may help Leo loosen her reins by giving her frequent reassurances of your love, and perhaps scheduling regular one-on-one time to make sure she gets the attention she needs.
2
Pisces’ tendency to withdraw will not make Leo a happy camper. Pisces are notorious for emotionally dipping out when they feel mistreated or pressured: they are the ghosts of the Zodiac.^{[15]

Expert Interview} In a committed relationship, this is a no-go—especially for a Leo. If Pisces wants to keep his relationship going strong, he will have to practice being emotionally direct with his Leo love, and Leo will have to be patient while he learns how to be forthright.
- Pisces and Leo, you may benefit from couples therapy to learn how to be together. If you can learn to accept one another’s shortcomings, your relationship will thrive for a long time.
