Western Zodiac
Libra and Virgo
Compatibility overview
As adjacent signs in the Western zodiac, firstwest and secondwest have traditionally had a somewhat dubious reputation. Orthodox thinking has been that they are like stereotypical real-life neighbors—respectful but nervous, and wary of getting too close. Give this relationship time, however, and the skeptics could be proved very wrong. Beneath the surface, there is ample scope for an enduring and nourishing bond.

Signs that are next to each other around the Western zodiac wheel form a Semi-Sextile interval. This connection is one of only two minor influences (with the Quincunx), which means that the energy is softer, less determinative, than with other matches. Hence from the beginning Libra and Virgo typically share a freedom that is partly liberating, and partly lacking in direction.
Semi-Sextile energy has a reputation for hesitancy and standoffishness. Certainly the elements here can be a source of ambivalence. Libra, an Air sign through and through, tends to be highly intellectual, fascinated by all things cerebral. Sometimes accused of indecisiveness, Libra's raison d'être is to leave no conceptual stone unturned. They tend to become quite cross if forced into any course of action they think is premature, or that they have not had time to reflect upon from multiple perspectives. Virgo, on the other hand, tends to espouse the values of determination, stability, and certainty that are the hallmarks of their Earth element. While they excel at organization and structure, Virgos can be uncomfortable with anything they perceive as over-thinking that might impede the steady momentum of progress. In this combination, Libra may struggle with what they perceive as the rigidity of Virgo, as if they are being locked in to ways of being that are too restrictive or narrow. Virgo, on the other hand, can find the breadth and energy of Libra's thinking disconcerting and confusing. It may seem hard for Virgo to establish the kind of firm foothold they need to make progress.
Given time to develop, however, this match has the hidden weapon of deeply compatible modalities. Libra's Cardinal energy is not surprisingly concentrated on beginnings. Libra typically loves nothing more than to brainstorm, to initiate and create. As well as being infectiously enthusiastic, they can be brilliantly original. This complements perfectly Virgo's Mutable energy, with its intrinsic concern for consequences, implications, and after-effects. Virgo's reflective approach to structure and organization can thus guide and control Libra's more effervescent brand of intellectual exploration, helping them to avoid procrastination or time-wasting. Libra's spirited and expansive mental explorations, meanwhile, can prevent Virgo becoming too dour or inflexible. Collaborations here can thus prove marvelously creative, and are likely to be successfully realized.
Some independence to counter the challenging elements will probably benefit this pairing. Libra and Virgo are both known for being moody from time to time, so conflicts could feel serious, even if they prove relatively fleeting. The great promise of this Semi-Sextile connection, though, is how it can build in strength over time. Given the time and space they need to blossom, this pairing could achieve terrific successes, and forge a very warm and dependable bond.

Jada Pinkett Smith (9/18/1971, Virgo Pig), Will Smith (9/25/1968, Libra Monkey) : The two actors have been married since 1997 and have two children together. They have attracted publicity owing to an acknowledged "open" relationship. In 2021, Will Smith was quoted as saying, "The freedoms that we’ve given one another and the unconditional support, to me, is the highest definition of love."
Leonard Bernstein (8/25/1918, Virgo Horse), Jerome Robbins (10/11/1918, Libra Horse) : Composer/conductor/pianist Bernstein and choreographer/dancer Robbins were longtime collaborators, whose work together included the musical, West Side Story (first produced on Broadway in 1957), and the ballets, Fancy Free (first produced in New York in 1944), and Dybbuk (first produced in New York in 1974). Bernstein once described, "I remember all my collaborations with Jerry in terms of one tactile bodily feeling, which is his hands on my shoulders, composing with his hands on my shoulders. This may be metaphorical but it’s the way I remember it. I can feel him standing behind me saying, yes, now just about four more beats there . . . yes, that’s it."
Justin Mikita (9/10/1985, Virgo Ox), Jesse Tyler Ferguson (10/22/1975, Libra Rabbit) : The two actors have been married since 2013, and have one child. Describing how they first met, at the gym in the early days of Ferguson's role in Modern Family (2009-2020), Ferguson said, "I was taken by how handsome he was and how sweet. I started asking questions about him, and I think he was sort of thrown off by that and ran away from me." The couple went on to launch the non-profit organization, Tie the Knot, raising money for LGBTQ causes.
Peter Falk (9/16/1927, Virgo Rabbit), Shera Danese (10/9/1949, Libra Ox) : The two actors were married from 1977 until Falk's death in 2011, from Alzheimer's. Danese appeared in Falk's iconic series, Columbo (1968–1978, 1989–2003) more than any other guest star. Falk once said about their early relationship, "[Danese] wasn’t interested. I kept at it. She conceded to a hello over a cocktail." Despite a reputation for conflict—the couple were apparently known a the "Fighting Falks", and Falk was a famous drinker and womanizer—they ultimately remained together. Danese once described: "We went through a really hard spell. I don’t know why but we didn’t agree on anything. Then, we made concessions, we accepted the bad habits of the other."
Lenny Henry (8/29/1958, Virgo Dog), Dawn French (10/11/1957, Libra Rooster) : The two British actor/comedians were married from 1984 until 2010. They had one adopted child together. Henry described about their early relationship in 2022, "I was yearning for something more substantial, but I just didn’t know what that was...A massive light bulb went off over my head. I was compelled by [French]. We talked about everything... performance, politics (my family voted Labour, but I hadn’t really connected with the whys of it until I met Dawn), family, relationships, food, the future. Even at the worst of times we used humour as sword and shield. My mind was at last tuned in, focused and functioning as an equal in a relationship. In other words, I was in love." In 2017, Henry said, "Remarkably, we seem to have shifted with relative ease from a 25-year marriage to a lasting friendship. I am amazed by us. There is no war, we’ve turned out to be the best of friends. There were lots of good years but one tricky last year."
Nick Cave (9/22/1957, Virgo Rooster), PJ Harvey (10/9/1969, Libra Rooster) : The two musicians dated in the mid-1990s, and collaborated on the recording, "Henry Lee" (1996). Cave has acknowledged their break-up as a strong influence on the acclaimed album, The Boatman's Call (1997), which marked a shift for Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds away from punk rock towards more sombre, piano-based music. Cave wrote about the break-up between him and Harvey in 2019: "Deep down I suspected that drugs might have been a problem between us, but there were other things too. I still had a certain amount of work to do on my understanding of the concept of monogamy, and Polly had her own issues, I suspect, but I think at the end of the day it came down to the fact that we were both fiercely creative people, each too self-absorbed to ever be able to inhabit the same space in any truly meaningful way. We were like two lost matching suitcases, on a carousel going nowhere...[N]ever one to waste a good crisis, I set about completing The Boatman’s Call."

The Horse and Tiger pairing is a truly wonderful energy match, attracting both inspirational and profoundly stabilising energy in the Chinese zodiac.
The central concept underlying Chinese astrology is the four Trine Families. One of these families includes the Horse and Tiger (with their kindred spirit, the Dog). This family is bound together by spirited, righteous energy. They are driven to succeed, and willing to make all kinds of sacrifices to achieve their goals, yet they also aspire to noble values of egalitarianism and service to others. Early contacts between the Horse and Tiger thus often represent a true meeting of minds. Horse natives are rarely shy about putting their prodigious talents on show—their pioneering brand of razzle-dazzle will likely captivate the Tiger from first sight. Even quieter Tiger souls have a commanding presence, and their noble pronouncements tend to immediately impress and attract the freewheeling Horse.
As these two get to know each other better, the real magic can potentially take hold. The Horse and Tiger are each defined by an essential inner contradiction. They are dyed-in-the-wool independents, reluctant to defer to anyone else's vision or authority, yet they also feel forever incomplete without a trusted partner or inner circle. The great compatibility between the Horse and Tiger means that somehow their respective needs for autonomy bring them together instead of wedging them apart. These two can comfortably spend time at a distance, or intensely challenge or confront one another, and the connection between them will only grow stronger as a result. Indeed, as is typical for Trine Family matches like this one, it is the evergreen nature of this combination that sometimes represents its greatest risk. For this kind of precious connection can sometimes seem too natural, too effortless, to be worthy of total commitment.
If the Horse and Tiger trust and invest in the power of their shared energy, then whatever the context, their relationship can be a once-in-a-lifetime source of belonging, adventure, and potency.

François-Henri Pinault (5/28/1962, Gemini Tiger), Salma Hayek (9/2/1966, Virgo Horse) : The actor and business entrepreneur had a daughter together in 2007 and have been married since 2009. In 2021, Hayek was quoted as saying, "When there is conflict, we put all the energy in solving the problem - never finding who to blame or 'You should have done this or that.' No, all our energy goes into: 'How do we solve this?'"
Pauletta Washington (9/28/1950, Libra Tiger), Denzel Washington (12/28/1954, Capricorn Horse) : Married since 1983, the Washingtons have four children together. Denzel Washington has described: "The difference between a house and a home, it’s a big difference. You can buy a house, but that doesn’t make it a home—and not to say a man can’t make a home a home, but my wife has made our house a home, and raised these beautiful kids, and protected them and sacrificed for them. She did the heavy lifting."
Christine Baumgartner (3/4/1974, Pisces Tiger), Kevin Costner (1/18/1955, Capricorn Horse) : The actor and model/designer were together from around 2000 until Baumgartner surprised many by filing for divorce in 2023. They married in 2004 and have three children. Costner said in 2018, "Fear kept me from marrying Christine. I woke up and thought, Am I going to lose a beautiful woman who is willing to be with me to my very last breath because I am afraid to say yes to a child? That’s all it took. Sometimes you learn the thing you’re most afraid of will save your life."
Rande Gerber (4/27/1962, Taurus Tiger), Cindy Crawford (2/20/1966, Pisces Horse) : The supermodel and business entrepreneur have been married since 1998 and have two children together. Gerber has said about the relationship, "We started as friends and we remained friends. You have to just keep that friendship and fun in the relationship."
Robert Pattinson (5/13/1986, Taurus Tiger), Kristen Stewart (4/9/1990, Aries Horse) : The two actors became household names as stars of the Twilight film series. They dated between around 2009 to 2013, and for a time were one of the most famous celebrity couples in the world. Stewart continues to speak positively about Pattinson and their relationship. She has described: "When me and Rob were together, we did not have an example to go by. So much was taken from us that, in trying to control one aspect, we were just like, 'No, we will never talk about it. Never. Because it’s ours.'"
Jackie Sandler(9/24/1974, Libra Tiger), Adam Sandler (9/9/1966, Virgo Horse) : The two actors have been married since 2003 and have two daughters together. About his critically-acclaimed performance in the film Uncut Gems (2019), Adam Sandler said: "My badass wife, she gave me the balls to take the part. I was scared and she said, 'Go [expletive] do that and you can do that [expletive]' and we rehearsed together all the time."
Stevie Wonder (5/13/1950, Taurus Tiger), Aretha Franklin (3/25/1942, Aries Horse) : The two celebrated musicians shared a longtime close friendship. After Franklin died in 2018, Wonder described visiting during her final days: "[Franklin] wasn't able to speak back, but her family felt that she could hear me, and so I just said all the things that I've always said and told her to say hello to my sister [Renee Hardaway] that I lost this year as well...She was just consistently a great human being, and she always — even with whatever turmoil may have been happening in her life, even through her illness — she did not put that on anybody else. She believed, I think that most of all she was doing God's work, and she was. She brought joy to others' lives, and she will — her voice and the essence of her will long [out]live all of us that are here right now."
Kirstie Alley (1/12/1951, Capricorn Tiger), John Travolta (2/18/1954, Aquarius Horse) : The two actors starred memorably in the Look Who's Talking films and formed a close friendship. Alley described later: "I almost ran off and married John. I did love him, I still love him. If I hadn’t been married I would’ve gone and married him and I would’ve been in an airplane because he has his own plane…He's a very generous person. He's very interested. If you ever talk to John, and this is genuine with him, you will become the most interesting thing that he's ever met in his life."
