As rewarding an energy match as there is written in the stars.
The element of Earth emphasises physicality, practicality, and solidity. Taurus and Virgo share in their hearts a longing for stability, material security and comfort. To outsiders, these two can sometimes seem a bit like stick-in-the-muds—Taurean stubbornness is legendary, just as Virgos are regularly accused of lacking flexibility. But to each other, their respective outlooks make perfect sense. Both possess an innate appreciation for hard work and reliability. And both believe instinctively that the greatest achievements are those that are built slowly and steadily on the physical plane. They much prefer to see the tangible results of years-long labor and time, rather than anything they might consider a flash-in-the-pan.
It is the influence of their respective modalities, however, that really triggers the chemistry here. Symbolically, theFixed energy of Taurus forms a natural progression into the Mutable energy of Virgo—Taurus is driven to actualize projects in the here and now, Virgo to strategize for promotion and future development. Hence Virgo tends to be deeply admiring and appreciative of Taurus' physical prowess and aesthetic values. Taurus, on the other hand, is drawn to Virgo's sophisticated organizational skills, eye for detail, and dedication to defining and achieving goals. In the result, this can be a profoundly nurturing combination, both in relation to each other and those around them.
A bedrock of many families, this combination can be just as successful in any context calling for exemplary teamwork, dedication and commitment.

Jerry Seinfeld (4/29/1954, Taurus Horse), Jessica Seinfeld (9/12/1971, Virgo Pig) : After a somewhat unconventional beginning to their relationship, the Seinfelds have been married for over 20 years and have three children together. Jerry Seinfeld has described Jessica's best attribute as: "Very funny. Very funny. From the day I met her, that was really our connection. We always have fun and we laugh and she’s got a great sense of humor. She’s very quick and sarcastic and all the qualities that I like. She’s very sharp. She catches all the wrongness."
Dwayne Johnson (5/2/1972, Taurus Rat), Lauren Hashian (9/8/1984, Virgo Rat) : The actor and singer have been a couple since 2007 and married in 2019. They have two children together. In 2015, Johnson said, "We do these stories and we talk so much about the business end, the success end, but then Lauren isn’t mentioned and my daughter isn’t mentioned. I always like making sure we find the balance and my home life is in there and Lauren Hashian is in there and my daughter is in there."
Cindy McCain (5/20/1954, Taurus Horse), John McCain (8/29/1936, Virgo Rat) : The politician and diplomat/businesswoman were married from 1980 until his death in 2018, and had seven children. Cindy McCain described: "It had its moments where it was stressful, and it had its moments where it was a hell of a lot of fun. As I look back on it, it was a lot more fun than it was heartache by any stretch. In any marriage, especially a political marriage, I think humor is a great equalizer. And that's how we were...John was a very funny guy and then, as it turned out, I found out I was kind of funny, too."
Barbra Streisand (4/24/1942, Taurus Horse), Elliott Gould (8/29/1938, Virgo Tiger) : The singer and actor were one of the most famous couples of the 1960s until their divorce in 1971. Gould recounted in 2020, "Barbra asked me at one point...'Why did we grow apart?'...And I said my question would be, 'How could we have grown apart?' And the answer to that is that we didn’t grow together and the reason for that was because she became more important than us...Then I also said to her, 'We did great. We made it very fast and nobody has what we have. There’s you and me and our kid."
Tina Fey (5/18/1970, Taurus Dog), Amy Poehler (9/16/1971, Virgo Pig) : The two comedians/actors have been close friends and colleagues for 30 years. Their memorable collaborations have included four memorable turns co-hosting the Golden Globe awards together. Speaking in 2012, Poehler said: "Sometimes Tina is like a very talented bungee-jumping expert. All it takes is Tina to softly say, 'We can do this, right?' and I suddenly feel like I can jump off a bridge."
Don Rickles (5/8/1926, Taurus Tiger), Bob Newhart (9/5/1929, Virgo Snake) : The two legendary comedians were close friends. Rickles explained: "We're apples and oranges. I'm a Jew, he's a Catholic. He's low-key, I'm a yeller. But we share the same values, marriage, children and grandchildren. We've traveled all over the world together with our wives, and in all that time we've never had a serious argument. So many things happen, there's so much sadness. But we can laugh together."

The Dog and Tiger pairing attracts powerfully favourable and impactful energy in the Chinese Zodiac.
The essential building blocks of Chinese astrology are the four Trine Families. One such family brings together the Dog and Tiger (and their comrade-in-arms, the Horse). The binding energy here mixes compassion and ambition in equal measure. These two kindred souls are born determined to make their mark, but only if success does not risk compromising their high ideals. In early encounters, the bedrock of principled ambition produces reliably supportive, engaging interactions. The Dog's support for underdog causes, especially anyone neglected or treated unfairly by society at large, resonates with the Tiger's commitment to justice and sacrifice. The Tiger's gifts for leadership and originality will impress and inspire the faithful Dog.
Even before they realize exactly what is happening, these two will often begin working seamlessly together, each instinctively picking up whatever slack there is, their teamwork quickly becoming more than the sum of its parts. Mutual appeal on the physical level is also highly likely. As their connection deepens, the dependence and trust in this match can become profoundly meaningful and produce extraordinary results. While usually well-disguised, the Dog's tendency for anxiety can be severe. The Tiger's brand of passionate self-belief can ease this nervousness and help the humble Dog apply themselves to projects with happy courage. Meanwhile, the Tiger's weakness for rash and foolhardy actions is likely to be much less problematic when balanced by the Dog's patient counsel and determination.
There is an any-kind-of-weather quality to trine matches like this, which can make them just as beneficial and fruitful in familial, professional, or intimate connections. The only real risk is that the energy here may seem too easy, making one or both parties overlook the particular harmony at play here. Given the attention it deserves, therefore, is important to realise its true potential.
This wonderful match offers a rare and deeply fulfilling alliance, capable of yielding stunning results for the signs themselves and their wider community.

Paul Daniels (4/6/1938, Aries Tiger), Debra McGee (10/31/1958, Scorpio Dog) : The magician and his long-time assistant were married from 1988 until Daniels' death in 2016. Daniels described in 2014, "[McGee] makes me laugh. Our relationship hasn’t changed over time: she still adores me. I hope we make each other feel very cared for and cherished. I would do anything for her – and I know she would for me."
Lil' Kim (7/11/1974, Cancer Tiger), Mary J. Blige (1/11/1971, Capricorn Dog) : The two celebrated hip-hop artists have been friends for decades and have collaborated on multiple occasions, including "I Can Love You" and "Hold On". Blige described Lil Kim by saying: "My baby girl, my little sister, I mean, one of the most incredible female rappers to open the door for so many women. She’s a trailblazer and one of the biggest rappers [and] most respected rappers in the business."
Polly Samson (4/29/1962, Taurus Tiger), David Gilmour (3/6/1946, Pisces Dog) : The musician and novelist have been married since 1994 and share four children together (including a son from Samson's previous relationship). Samson has explained: "David has always been incredibly, incredibly supportive of me. There’s a motif in [my novel] A Theater for Dreamers that starts when [the character] Leonard says how lovely it would be if he had a gardenia and a sandwich placed on his desk every day...And in our relationship, we take it in turns. David is as likely to get me a gardenia and a sandwich as I am to get him one."
Joaquin Phoenix (10/28/1974, Scorpio Tiger), River Phoenix (8/23/1970, Virgo Dog) : The two famous brothers grew up in an itinerant family and were always close. Joaquin Phoenix has described how River played songs for him on the guitar hours before River's tragic death in 1993. Joaquin also recounted: "[River] suggested I change my name [from Leaf back to Joaquin] and then, I don’t know, six months later, whatever it was, we were in Florida, we were in the kitchen, and he said, 'You’re going to be an actor and you're going to be more well known than I am.' Me and my mom looked at each other like, 'What the [expletive] is he talking about?’ I don’t know why he said that or what he knew of me at the time. I hadn’t been acting at all. But he also said it with a certain weight, with a knowing that seemed so absurd to me at the time, but of course now, in hindsight, you’re like, 'How the [expletive] did he know?'"
Flea (10/16/1962, Libra Tiger), John Frusciante (3/5/1970, Pisces Dog) : The two musicians have been longtime friends and collaborators, since Frusciante joined the Red Hot Chili Peppers at age 18. (Flea and fellow founding member of the RHCP, Anthony Kiedis (11/1/1962), were both born in 1962 and share this energy match with Frusciante.) Flea has described: "John Frusciante has a profound impact on everything that we do, and even when we wasn’t in the band he had a profound impact on everything that we do. He is just the most focused, dedicated, tapped-in musician who’s able to muster this diligence and focus about doing what he does consistently, that just uplifts us."
Elle Fanning (4/9/1998, Aries Tiger), Dakota Fanning (2/23/1994, Pisces Dog) : The two sisters were child actors who have gone on to have successful careers as adults. They have described the special bond between them and their shared development as actors. Elle Fanning has said: "[We] would play these elaborate scenes around the house. Like birthing scenes… I would be the baby coming out. Crazy stuff like that. We were doing it for ourselves; we weren’t, like, 'Oh, Mom and Dad, sit down and we’re gonna perform for you.' That was how we played."
