Leo and Capricorn compatibility
Leo and Capricorn: an ambitious match that takes work on warmth and money.
This reading uses your Sun signs only: their elements, modes and the angle between them. Here's why.
Why: Leo is fixed fire and Capricorn is cardinal earth, 150° apart (a quincunx), so you share neither element nor mode and need to keep adjusting your styles to each other.
