But it does not mean, that they can not be hot. The Aries should flatter The Lion concerning his physical fit. The Lion should not disappoint the Aries limiting his inherent propensity to dominate.
CANCER - LEO Simple Compatibility
The Leo has an ability to stabilize moods of The Cancer. The Leo is generous in ways he/she shows his love and it creates a feeling of reliance for a changeable Cancer .
