Leo and Capricorn compatibility

How your signs connect

Quincunx (150°). Your signs sit 150° apart, an awkward angle with little in common. It asks for adjustment from both sides, and rewards it with real growth.

Fire and earth

Fire brings excitement and earth brings staying power. Fire can find earth too slow and earth can find fire reckless, but each has what the other lacks: fire gets earth moving, earth gives fire something solid to stand on.

Pace and temperament

One starts things (cardinal) and one keeps them going (fixed): a good team when the starter respects the keeper's pace.
