Sagittarius and Virgo

Compatibility overview

This is a stormy, yet nevertheless empowering connection. When firstwest and secondwest get together, even simple subjects can provoke furious debate—bystanders may find themselves figuratively and literally ducking for cover. But this relationship can also produce lifelong benefits, providing both signs with virtually unparalleled confidence and self-belief.

An interval of three steps around the Western zodiac wheel, as between Sagittarius and Virgo, forms a Square connection. This hard 90° angle is well known for its unyielding, potentially conflictive energy.

Sagittarius' instincts are essentially abstract, emphasizing a wholistic view of humanity and the natural world. Virgo, by contrast, is more concrete, interested in setting realistic goals and diligently applying themselves to achieve them. Sagittarius may thus feel as if they are being locked into attitudes and behaviors that are uncomfortably narrow, while Virgo finds it hard to get a firm footing, as if they never have enough control over what is happening. Part of the tension stems from the respective elements. Fire sign Sagittarius' is celebrated for their great energy and dynamic bursts, but they can also fade quickly if discouraged or neglected. Virgo's Earth is a much steadier influence, bringing patience and determination, as well as a tendency towards intransigence. In Virgo's mind, Sagittarius may be forever blowing disconcertingly too hot or too cold, while Sagittarius can find Virgo overly predictable, immoveable, or domineering.

Because these two signs share the same Mutable modality, there is little chance of escaping confrontation. As different as they are, they are both instinctively reflective, interested in implications, consequences, and effects. Without a balancing different modality, there is basically nowhere to hide. Fortunately, the strong tension here has powerful countervailing benefits. Difference always carries some potential for attraction, but these two can experience particular electricity. As time passes, a more significant effect may be lasting assuredness and self-understanding.

Like devil's advocates, Sagittarius and Virgo can expose dramatically each other's true selves—those aspects of their character that are disposable, and those that can never be compromised. This remarkable personal growth for the two signs can, perhaps counter-intuitively, result in a strong and lasting bond. This often means that even if Sagittarius and Virgo ultimately move on in different directions, they often experience lasting gratitude for the role this powerfully transformative energy has played in their lives.

Sunrise Coigney (9/17/1972, Virgo Rat), Mark Ruffalo (11/22/1967, Sagittarius Sheep) : The actors married in 2000 and have three children together. Ruffalo described in 2014: "I was living in a dump and didn’t even have a driver’s license or a credit card. [Coigney] thought I was a mess … but she believed in me and kept encouraging me. I don’t know if I would have made it without her."

Aaron Paul (8/27/1979, Virgo Sheep), Lauren Parsekian (12/8/1986, Sagittarius Tiger) : The actor and director/actor have been married since 2013 and have two children. Referring to Parsekian's anti-bullying non-profit organization, Paul said in his 2014 Emmy acceptance speech: "To my wife, my God, thank you for marrying me. If you don’t know what she does, look up Kind Campaign. Do yourself a favor, look up Kind Campaign."

Lauren Bacall and Frank Sinatra

Lauren Bacall (9/16/1924, Virgo Rat), Frank Sinatra (12/12/1915, Sagittarius Rabbit) : The legendary singer and actor became romantically involved after the death of Bacall's first husband, Humphrey Bogart. Bacall's memoir, By Myself (1979), recounted that Sinatra ended the relationship suddenly, after news leaked about their engagement: "[Sinatra] did not speak one word to me—if he looked in my direction, he did not see me, he looked right past me, as though my chair were empty...I would have preferred him to spit in my face, at least that would have been recognition." About the relationship generally, Bacall described: "[As I look at it now,] we used one another in some crazy way. Actually, Frank did me a great favor—he saved me from the disaster our marriage would have been. The truth is he was probably smarter than I: he knew it couldn’t work. But the truth is also that he behaved like a complete s—...Anyway, it turned out to be a tragedy with a happy ending. Now, after a slow start, we are back on some sort of friendly basis."

Chase Stokes (9/16/1992, Virgo Monkey), Madelyn Cline (12/21/1997, Sagittarius Ox) : The two actors co-starred as lovers in Outer Season and were also in a real-life relationship for over a year. Stokes described: "Mads and I have been working together now for 30 episodes, and we made a promise to each other before we even started dating that the work was always going to come first. And that no matter what happens in our personal lives, and the ways that life sometimes takes you in different directions, that we're always going to honor the work. That stayed 100 percent truthful this season."

Jimmy Connors and Chris Evert

Jimmy Connors (9/2/1952, Virgo Dragon), Chris Evert (12/21/1954, Sagittarius Horse) : The two champion tennis players were engaged in the 1970s, when they both achieved breakthrough successes, and were called the "Love Double" and "Love Match" by the press. In his memoir, The Outsider (2013), Connors alleged that their previouly unexplained break-up was due in part to Evert having an abortion. Evert responded: "In his book, Jimmy Connors has written about a time in our relationship that was very personal and emotionally painful. I am extremely disappointed that he used the book to misrepresent a private matter that took place 40 years ago and made it public, without my knowledge."

Lance Armstrong (9/18/1971, Virgo Pig), Jan Ullrich (12/2/1973, Sagittarius Ox) : The two cyclists were famous rivals, with Ulrich finishing second to Armstrong in the Tour de France in 2000, 2001, and 2003. They admitted to doping during their careers within months of each other in 2013. In 2018, Armstrong travelled to Germany to help Ulrich address personal problems. In 2020, Armstrong said: "It means the world to me, to do a bike tour with Jan Ullrich and get kicked in the ass by him on the bike. Who says great rivals can’t be friends?...[He] drastically changed my life. [He] challenged me as a man...We came through a crazy time and a [expletive] time and we all navigated it differently. But we’re here and we’ve got this man back, fit and healthy. This is certainly one of the highlights of my year....When I see him here now and compare it with the man from three years ago: It’s one of the biggest comebacks in the world."

Jermaine Jackson (12/11/1954, Sagittarius Horse), Michael Jackson (8/29/1958, Virgo Dog) : The two musician brothers and members of the Jackson 5 attracted publicity for their complex relationship. In his memoir, You Are Not Alone: Michael, Through a Brother's Eyes, Jermaine described his infamous bootleg song, "Word to the Badd!!" as "secret retaliation...that therapists would have applauded, even if Michael's fans would not." About the relationship generally, Jermaine wrote: "We have been in sync since infancy, throughout everything: the dream, the Jackson 5, the fame, the separate paths, the rifts, the sorrows, the scandals, and the impossible pressure. He has cried with me. I have shouted in his face. He has refused to see me. He has begged me to be with him. We have known each other’s loyalty and each other’s unintended betrayal. And it is because of everything contained within this history—this brotherhood—that I know his character and mind like only true blood can."

Rooster and Rooster

Compatibility overview

The expression "power couple" is often bandied about, but such a description is more or less expected for this ultra-stylish, supercharged pair. Two Roosters share highly compatible core values, not to mention one of the most prodigious work ethics in the zodiac. Fair warning, a lack of balance can lead to some explosive confrontations. But these two will never shy away from a challenge, and can ultimately forge a powerful bond.

The pairing of two Rooster natives is as powerful as any in the Chinese zodiac.

In the Chinese zodiac, matches between members of the same Trine Family have a strong foundation from the outset. The family of the Rooster (with the Ox and Snake) is celebrated for their business sense and determination, so two Roosters will generally find they have plenty in common when it comes to identifying and pursuing opportunities.

The Rooster's true gift is their sixth sense for capturing the zeitgeist. Two Roosters can thus be blown away by each other's incredible personal flair, and their innate abilities to read and impact the social currencies of their community. Far from skin deep, mutual admiration and attraction here arise from an instinctive recognition that each possesses the insight, drive, and energy necessary to achieve their goals. Indeed, these two will often waste no time before collaborating to startling effect. After all, one Rooster can be a visionary trendsetter—two can bend history to their will.

There is an undeniable quality of dynamite to this match, however, that may sometimes prove difficult to control. The Rooster is accustomed to having complete control over their own trajectory and self-presentation, and being eclipsed can be very challenging for them. Everything may be roses when they are in lock step, but two Roosters can find they hurt each other's feelings when their individual missions diverge. Self-absorption is also a notorious challenge for this sign. At times, both parties may have an uncomfortable sense they are more like an accessory than the main attraction they wish to be. Fortunately, the Rooster is just as capable of applying their tireless diligence to relationships as to other tasks.

Ultimately, this connection may prove a heady combination of impassioned highs and lows, but there is every chance two Rooster natives will be able to find a rhythm that sustains and inspires them long into the future to dazzling effect.

John Turturro and Spike Lee

Spike Lee (3/20/1957, Pisces Rooster), John Turturro (2/28/1957, Pisces Rooster) : The actor and director/actor are longtime collaborators and friends, who worked together on films including Do the Right Thing (1989), Mo Better Blues (1990), Jungle Fever (1991), and Clockers (1995). Discussing their respective acting contributions to the acclaimed Do the Right Thing, Lee referred to Turturro in handwritten notes as "MY MAIN MAN" and said: "John Turturro and I had very good chemistry between us. We're great friends, and he's such a great actor. I was very much intimidated doing that scene with John because, a lot of the scenes in the film where I'm acting at least, I'm not really an actor. The other people in it are, but this was just me and John on either side of a cigarette machine. Luckily, I got through it. John Turturro is a beast."

Chance the Rapper (4/16/1993, Aries Rooster), Kirsten Corley (5/31/1993, Gemini Rooster) : The couple first met as children in 2003 and began dating in 2013. After breaking up and becoming involved in legal disputes during 2016-2017, they reconciled and married in 2019. They have two daughters together. In 2018, Chance posted: "From the beginning beginning to the end end. You are my oldest and best friend. You are responsible for everyone of the most wonderful things in my life. I’m forever grateful that God made me find you, and even more grateful that you made me find God. Forever and ever babe. Happy Birthday."

Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie

Nicole Richie (9/21/1981, Virgo Rooster), Paris Hilton (2/17/1981, Aquarius Rooster) : The two media personalities and childhood friends starred memorably together in the reality series The Simple Life (2003-2007), playing wealthy socialites doing menial jobs. The show was cancelled by Fox after two seasons (before being picked up by E!), due to feuding between Ritchie and Hilton. The pair have since reconciled. Using a refrain the pair used often on TV together, Hilton said during her 2021 wedding:"I’m so happy to have Nicole here with me on my big day. We’ve been friends since we were 2 years old. I love her so much and it just means so much to me that she’s here. Sanasa Sanasa!"

Pete Davidson (11/16/1993, Scorpio Rooster), Ariana Grande (6/26/1993, Cancer Rooster) : The singer and comedian shared a high-profile engagement in 2018. Grande described in 2019: "My friends were like, 'Come! We're gonna have a fun summer.' And then I met Pete, and it was an amazing distraction. It was frivolous and fun and insane and highly unrealistic, and I loved him, and I didn't know him. I'm like an infant when it comes to real life and this old soul, been-around-the-block-a-million-times artist. I still don't trust myself with the life stuff."

Beyoncé and Jay-Z

Jay-Z (12/4/1969, Sagittarius Rooster), Beyoncé (9/4/1981, Virgo Rooster) : The two musicians and businesspeople are one of the most famous couples in the world. They began dating around 2002, married in 2008, and have three children. Their combined wealth is estimated at around two billion dollars. They have publicly acknowledged facing marital challenges, including in Beyoncé's album Lemonade and Jay-Z's 4.44. Jay-Z said in 2017, "[W]e were using our art almost like a therapy session." In 2018, Beyoncé posted to Instagram: "At 36, I became a new mother of 3. I breastfed twins. I renewed my vows with my husband of ten years. I came back home to the stage to do Coachella, after pregnancy. Then my husband and I released our album together, Everything Is Love. And we’ve been touring with our family around the world, and loving it. This year has been monumental for me. I thank God for everyone in my life."


Combined Relationship Horoscope

Final Words

The Square combination of firstwest and secondwest attracts powerful and explosive energy, with heated disagreements just about unavoidable. Yet this energy also has rare potential as a teacher, illuminating which qualities and directions in life are essential, and which can be forsaken. The positives of this Square connection are especially likely to surface here, given the sympathetic shared connection of the firsteast and secondeast. This own-sign combination may prove somewhat exhausting from time to time, owing to the lack of balance, but these two will likely share their most core values and attitudes—an ideal way to ensure the wildness of the Square can be kept under control, more or less.
