Polishing humility and charm appears to be on the cosmic menu for you dear ones, as Venus glides into precise Virgo, forming a conjunction with your composite Mercury in grandiose Leo. Remember that trope from old romantic comedies where one person attempts to organize a messy room while the other spews dramatic monologues incessantly? This pattern embodies your love journey now.

Venus in Virgo brings a dash of practicality to your love language, blending harmoniously with your Leo Mercury's need for vibrant exchange and appreciation. This conjunction welcomes thorough conversations about what makes you feel loved, admired, and cared for. However, be warned that Virgo's reputation for being scrupulous might lead you to nit-pick each other's expressions of love. "Oh, darling, I love it when you bring me roses... but, can you please keep floral arrangements to only odd numbers next time?"

Your innate Leo energy desires outpouring recognition, while Virgo's meticulous nature compels you to express your affection rationally. This can lead to both endearing and hilarious moments. You might draw the line at writing formal feedback forms following each date, for instance, but bullet-point lists of what made your heart flutter might come in quite handy!

Meanwhile, your composite Mercury in Leo prompt grand, heart-on-sleeve declarations. "Yes, your love is mightier than a Shakespearean sonnet but, does it need to be declared atop a mountain?" Venus in Virgo would suggest. Take a small step back and try expressing your feelings genuinely without the pomp and pageantry of a Broadway showstopper.

This period fosters growth towards balanced expressivity: finding equilibrium between the dramatic and the mundane, the lavish and the detail-oriented. As you navigate this transit, remember to keep the line of communication open, patient, and invested in understanding each other's love language. Ensure your adoration remains authentic, just like your personalities, without becoming an exercise in perfectionism. So, perhaps, you may forego the need to dissect each other's love sonnets for proper Iambic pentameter.

Balance your grand Leo expressions with your Virgo drive for details, and you'll find a synergy that strengthens your bond. So, go on, wear your hearts on your sleeves; just remember to lint roll occasionally!
