As Venus skips merrily into Sagittarius, we see that she's in what astrologers call a 'quincunx' to your composite Ascendant in Leo. Now, brace yourselves - 'quincunx' sounds like an alien species or the name of a breakfast cereal mascot. Don't be alarmed! It simply reflects a possible disconnect between what you value (Venus) and how you project yourselves (Ascendant) as a pair.
Through your composite Leo Ascendant, you've painted an attractive picture as a couple. All those candid, matching outfit photos on social media? That brazen confidence at parties? All radiant signatures of your Leo Ascendant. Meanwhile, Venus in Sagittarius is playing a different tune in her flamboyant party dress, lion's mane left untamed, rousing adventurous stories among acquaintances.
With this mischievous quincunx, you might encounter hilarious miscommunications. One of you could be planning an evening of Netflix and chill while the other is eager for a jungle trek. Or perhaps one of you starts an argument about how to pronounce 'quinoa', whilst the other is trying to decide between a velvet Elvis painting or a life-sized garden gnome for the lounge. Remember, just as important as laughter in a romance is compromise.

In a desire to backpack to an unfrequented corner of the world? Sounds like Venus in Sagittarius flirting with your joint philosopher's spirit and never-ending wanderlust.
But Leo Ascendant might crave indulgence, spotlight, and a dash of stability. It's not about one being right or wrong. It's about the fact that Venus in Sagittarius is singing "I Want to Break Free", while Leo Ascendant is crooning "Can't Help Falling in Love."
Navigate this peculiar transit by appreciating the unique blend that is 'you'. Treat every unexpected twist and turn as an opportunity for growth, or at the very least, a good laugh. Embrace the hilariously mismatched dance moves that Venus in Sagittarius may inspire. After all, isn't life just a series of clumsy, dancing steps towards understanding one another?
