A Guide to Leo Virgo Cusp Signs

Characteristics of those born on the
Leo Virgo Cusp

Known as: The Cusp of Exposure

 

First of all, what does “Born on the Cusp” Mean? According to the Cambridge English Dictionary the definition of “cusp” is:

the dividing line between two very different things

So, in this case the Cusp is the dividing line between the Zodiac Signs of Leo and Virgo. The personalities of the Lion and the Maiden are very different, as is the case of all the star signs who follow each other in the Zodiac Wheel.

As someone who is herself Born on the Cusp (Taurus-Gemini), I know first-hand how this can lead to a lot of internal conflict. Read on to see what I mean!

How the Birth Date influences those born on the Leo-Virgo Cusp

The Sun moves out of Leo around August 23. Occasionally it can be August 24. Virgo begins on or around August 24.

Anyone born on August 22 will be a Lion and anyone born on August 25 is a Maiden.

Those born on the Cusp in between those two signs will be an intriguing mix. Leo brings a wildness to Virgo’s modesty, resulting in a feral individual who constantly craves attention.

The Ruling Elements of Leo-Virgo are Fire & Earth

Will the earth smother the flames? Or will the fire continue to burn despite it?

Leo Virgo Cusp Signs, like the Cusp of Cancer and Leo, can be a complicated combination.

The ruling planet of Leo is the Sun and the ruling planet of Virgo is Mercury. This means that the Leo Virgo Cusp Sign is open, logical, has overwhelming power but is prone to change their minds.

The Zodiac Sign of Leo The Lion is one of those larger than life characters. This means that there can be inner turmoil  when you consider how reserved Virgo can be.

However, the influence of Virgo means that Leo Virgo Cusp Signs will need more space and time to do their own thing than Leo would normally want.

The mix of Fire and Earth means that sometimes the Leo/Virgo will be full of beans. However, the next minute they will have reverted to not wanting to see anyone, while they do their own thing.

The Leo Virgo Personality

Leo has a huge need to create. Virgos combine their skills and talents together for the good of others.

This means that the result is a combination that has huge energy and ambition. This leads to success in whatever they choose to become involved.

Leo Virgo has great business acumen. They have meticulous attention to detail. This is combined with their ability to stick to a well thought out organised routine.

Leo-Virgos tend to be popular and even inspiring to others.

However, although the Virgo side of their nature can make them want to keep their own company at times, Leo and Virgo cusps are friendly and sociable. This means that they love to have fun and live life with enthusiasm, throwing themselves into whatever they choose to do.

Those born on the Cusp of Leo Virgo are natural leaders. Their administrative prowess helps ensure that their projects are successful.

Virgo Leo Cuspers are real “givers”. This means that they are one of the most caring Zodiac sign combinations.

Leo Virgo Love Compatibility

In the Leo Virgo Cusp Sign the roar of Leo runs the risk of being silenced by nit-picky, perniticky Virgo. This means that they could find themselves more “single” than they would like.

However, the influence of Virgo, will make the Leo side of this combo more curious about others, including those from other cultures or countries.

  1. best relationship i ever had was virgo to virgo. we did argue quite a bit, but it was never heeatd arguments, and we enjoyed them. we supported each-other well and were brutally honest we are both still in love, but i pushed her away.. post traumatic stress changed me, and i had issues that made me feel she was safer without me, so i moved on. broke both our harts., but its all i could see to do to pout her in a position that someone who was more capable of being the person she deserved. i gave up my true love even though it meant hurting her so she could find a more proper guy for herself and be happy. so now i’m happy she found happiness even though she was the one

  2. My whole life I have been drawn to cancers and Aquarius’s. Neither has ever lasted or been very beneficial. The only relationships I have felt deeply about and felt entirely connected was with another Virgo or another cusp rider involving a leo or cancer.

      1. Imnotsayingmynamehaha

        I guess I’m more of the leo side of my sign I’m Leo-Virgo born {August 22nd 1991} because while reading the Virgo reasons why they don’t get along with Aquarius just doesn’t sound right to me. I do take into account that the guy that I’m dating is an Aquarius – pisces cusp though maybe that’s why?

        1. one of my best friends is aquarius and pisces cusp and im leo – virgo cusp (24th) and we get along so well like the stuff i read about them doesnt make sense exept we are capable of having like real bad fights but we both know we dont mean it and can be so honest with each other i think of it as a good thing we can fight like that but still be amazing friends even during a fight i love aqaurius – pisces cups sooooo much

  3. I was born on the Leo/Virgo cusp and I had fallen in love with an Aquarius who did not love me in return. I really never understood what it was that attracted me to her, I can honestly say it just seemed like she had some aura that she emitted that I really liked. Then my last relationship was with another Aquarius and it was extremely short. Her insecurities killed it for me. Is it me or do we have difficulty in finding love? I am very familiar with unrequited love. I have two female friends, one which is a Leo and the other which is a Leo/Virgo. I developed feelings for the Leo but she only liked me as a friend, even though I could not be with her I consider her one of my best friends. The Leo/Virgo was not interested either and I quickly got over it and didn’t even understand why I briefly felt that way. What I find interesting is that my Leo friend was love with a Scorpio and even he became a friend of mine which I thought was cool. Just recently probably my most painful heartbreak was from a Scorpio. I had never loved anyone as much as I loved her. Now I never want to meet another female Scorpio again.

    1. I’m a female leo/virgo cusp (Aug 20.) A Scorpio man broke me too, I have never loved anyone like I loved him. I will never be with another Scorpio again.

  4. Adrian, I am a Leo/Virgo (closer to Leo) cusp as well, and dated a Scorpio for 5 years. It was so tumultuous and awful. I never want to see another Scorpio male!

    Now I am dating a Leo/Virgo cusp, who is closer to Virgo. The traits are undeniable. It hasn’t been easy, but he’s certainly the most loving guy I’ve ever met,
    What’s odd are his tendencies to be pulled by both sides. He’s impatient over the smallest things, but patient when it comes to heated arguments and more important subjects. He’s very warm and happy, but also kind of cold and doesn’t really talk about feelings. He acts like a kid when we are playing around, but is such a critical perfectionist… that just KILLS me because as a Leo, I love everyone, and embrace imperfections!
    The one thing I do think is that he is very loyal. We have a long-distance relationship and for the first time ever, I’ve been quite insecure. I’m not sure why though- I haven’t been doing anything to cause a guilty conscience and I honestly don’t think he has either. He’s always there to talk and I’ve never caught him in a lie. Maybe it’s his secretive nature? I’m highly intuitive, so there’s something I’m catching onto. But I’m also an open book so maybe I don’t like the fact that he’s not.
    Or who knows, maybe he’s just going to rip my heart out… though I know he would do it in the most considerate way possible.

  5. I was born on the Leo/Virgo cusp. I definitely struggle with the extrovert/introvert issue. Sadly I have had relationships, but never love. I don’t ever want to be controlled by my emotions. Yet, I have been drawn to the Aquarius sign some reason on two separate occasions. The first relationship left me wondering how I got there? Now, I am currently attracted to another Aquarius. I am wondering if I could actually “love” him and he love me back? The Aquarius sign can be hard to read. They are not really demonstrative when it comes to emotions. I don’t want to waste time and emotions. There are too many hills to climb and valleys to cross that require focus. Spoken like a true Leo/Virgo cusper; wouldn’t you say? Yet I don’t want to leave this earth without experiencing true love at least once in mylife.

  6. Hi I just discovered that I’m a Leo Virgo cusp and I just started seeing a young female Virgo. I know Leo and Virgos don’t get along but if I have some Virgo traits then will the compatibility blance it’s self out ( just a little)?

  7. this is the right explaination i’ve been looking for. coz i was really wondering for my whole entire life why am i been told i’m a great leader when i am a pure virgo and virgo is a shy zodiac sign. my birthdate is Aug 24, 1991, i just read the leo-virgo cusp lately, so this explains i am not just a virgo. and currently, i am with a Leo A relationship. it’s quite amazing as long as my leo is in the mood, isn’t that right? anyway, sometimes it’s hard and exhausting being a leo/virgo sign. i am able to balance the both sign, i changed my mood so quick i can imagine that some people assumes i am a bipolar? and they say i am really hard to read bcoz of my facial expression and my approach is way too different. in terms of work, my leo part dominates me but sometimes a virgo side is. just now, i am very confuse (´ヮ`) .. but this article explains a lot ..

  8. (august22) Leo-Virgo and doesnt match up well with Gemini’s
    but the most inspiring is pisces … I really Love their way…
    I hate talking with capricorn hahaha
    I’m alive with Sagittarius
    Virgo Trust me most
    I never encounter of Leo
    Cancer – more realistic but no drama
    Aquarius- sometimes serious and sometimes not

    1. Elaine AJ Hartless

      Hi, as both you and your partner were born on the Cusp, this makes it more likely that you are compatible as Cuspers tend to get along with each other pretty well – although it should be said some more than others!
