There is a naturally high-strung 180 degree angle between these signs. Unlike Aquarius, Leo is more focussed on enjoying positive social credits for himself, which can clash with Aquarius' uncalculated rebelliousness and focus on trying to change minds. The problem in such relationships is that both signs have something stubborn in them and want to have their own way, which can create much stress. On the other hand, Leo is usually less critical than most other signs, and this fits well for Aquarius, which despises being criticised. This often builds up trust in Aquarius and the relationship can hold up on this basis. In romance there is usually much attraction between them.

Although these signs may appear to have much in common, especially in their friendly and rather sunny style, Leo is less repelled by coarseness and less pent-up on refined image, in the way Libra is. Leo can at times be a bit embarrassing for Libra. Libra is also more intellectual in its demeanor than the more simple-minded, childishly playful Leo. Nevertheless, this association can be workable as it usually has something fun in it.

Interestingly, this relationship tends to work alright. Capricorn is well inclined to bring the more adult side of Leo, although Leo never completely gives up the childish, playful side. This works because both signs are on the same level - Capricorn likes to associate with strong, prominent individuals that are well-established socially, and Leo often attracts to Capricorn's exclusive and mature personality. In close relationship this association can become a bit lacklustre for Leo after a while, even though Leo makes an effort against this. It is not so idyllic for Leo long-term, but this has a way of holding on.
