What Attracts a Leo Man?
If your default mode is to fly under the radar and not make any splashes, then the chances that a man with his Venus in Leo will notice you are slim.
This man prefers to see himself with a flashy mate: loud, bold, and proud of their personality right down to their clothing and accessories.
This is what the Leo man who has a placement in Venus likes, but sadly, it can also be his downfall.
Men with their Venus placement here are famous for choosing partners who have huge egos.
They are often getting pushed around which leaves them feeling overshadowed by their seemingly larger-than-life other halves.
This is likely to be someone with their actual sun sign in Leo, or Aries (or just about any celebrity).
But to be fair, the man with his Venus in Leo also thinks the world of himself and needs to be cherished. He also has to know that his partner knows his deepest needs.
He is attracted by mates who are comfortable with affection and showing often over-the-top displays of adoration for him (even better when it is in public).
While warm and cheery himself, the Leo man is wildly attracted to the detached type. But not the cold and calculated person, but rather the arrogant kind.
As you can imagine, this could either be good or bad for him; the man who is typically happy and over-demonstrating himself.
This man is about generosity and having some fun with his romances, less about cruelty and conflicts with others. If he is ever any of these things, it is only for show.
The Leo man does love attention, but he vastly prefers the positive kind.
In fact, negative attention wears down on Leo and no other sign knows that their mate reflects them in the public eye more than he does. The Leo male is truly the refined fire sign.
Since a man with his Venus in Leo cannot help but be attracted to powerful and dynamic lovers, his best bet is to find someone who is those things.
However, she also needs to be charitable, warm, and personable, not one who wants to trample all over him.
A woman with a degree of maturity who has done some inner work in understanding how to want to be truly happy together is the woman who will ultimately win his heart.

He is also an outstanding match for those with their Venus in Aries, Sagittarius, Gemini, and Libra.
However, it is always important to consider one’s full natal chart to determine Venus in Leo’s computability.
