Where signs are two steps apart in Western astrology, they form a Sextile interval. The shared energy here is famously easygoing and pleasurable, without much in the way of disturbance or pressure. This kind of influence can be especially appreciated by Scorpio and Virgo, neither of which is generally known for having a relaxed character at all.

Scorpio, of course, is one of the Western zodiac's true powerhouses, bringing passion, intensity, and determination to everything they do. But Virgo too is a highly impactful sign, virtually unparalleled in their ability to set objectives, strategize, and realize their goals. So the undemanding sympathy and tenderness of the Sextile connection may catch these two somewhat off-guard. The respective elements—Water for Scorpio and Earth for Virgo—are beautifully harmonious. All kinds of communications are thus likely to flow with surprising ease. Even thoughts that go largely unsaid can be relied on to be supportive, and sensitive to each other's needs.

Creative freedom can be somewhat elusive for Virgo, whose analytical outlook often favours regimented expression. In this breezy relationship, however, Scorpio's irrepressible creative instincts exert a liberating and encouraging influence. Scorpio, on the other hand, may find the scope and intensity of their perceptions a heavy load to bear. Virgo's solidity and methodical ways of understanding can provide a much needed steadying effect. All forms of personal and imaginative discovery are therefore favoured by this relationship.

Scorpio's productive Fixed modality forms a natural segue into the reflective Mutable modality of Virgo. Shared endeavours thus tend to progress effortlessly from inception to realization. In fact, if Virgo and Scorpio need to watch out for anything, it is that the ease of this relationship makes them underestimate its significance. Sometimes both signs may be drawn to relationships that are more complicated, indeed possibly less fulfilling, simply because they interpret more demanding energy as requiring their attention.

It would be a mistake to neglect the potential of this delightful connection, which in the right circumstances may prove one of the most inspiring and enjoyable in all of Western astrology.

Leonardo DiCaprio and Baz Luhrmann

Baz Luhrmann (9/17/1962, Virgo Tiger), Leonardo DiCaprio (11/11/1974, Scorpio Tiger) : The actor and director have been friends dating back to their first collaboration, Romeo + Juliet, in 1996. Speaking about casting DiCaprio in The Great Gatsby, Luhrmann described: "[DiCaprio] put me through the hoops in a really good way. It really was about working with Leonardo again and we were always trying to think of something to do and I had to wear him down. [H]onestly, I admire him for that because the thing about Leonardo, I mean he’s a friend, our families are friends, is that he looks for joy in life, but when it comes to two things, acting and the environment, he just doesn’t take it lightly."

Jamie Linden (9/3/1980, Virgo Monkey), Rachel McAdams (11/17/1978, Scorpio Horse) : The screenwriter and actor have been together since 2016 and have two children together. They have maintained almost complete privacy about their relationship. On one occasion, McAdams mentioned that, "We live such a gypsy life as actors, so [it’s great] being with someone who can be on the road as well." During the pandemic, she said their family, "[L]ive sort of out in the country, a little farm down the road, so we can go and look at the animals."

Tim Burton and Winona Ryder

Tim Burton (8/25/1958, Virgo Dog), Winona Ryder (10/29/1971, Scorpio Pig) : The actor and director have collaborated multiple times, including on the films Beetlejuice (1988), Edward Scissorhands (1990), and Frankenweenie (2012). Ryder has famously described how at her first audition with Burton, they chatted without her knowing who he was: "I was talking to someone in the waiting room for a while, about movies and music. And then, after about 30 minutes, I was like, ‘Do you know when this Tim Burton guy is showing up because I may be in the wrong building?’, and he was like, ‘Oh, that’s me’. I had no idea that a director could be so cool and down to earth." More recently, she said: "Tim is so special to me in so many ways and I do feel like I owe my career to him in a big way because of Beetlejuice...He’s a dear friend, a brilliant guy and a brilliant film-maker....It’s been 25 years since I first met him...I’ve always had an almost telepathic relationship with him, where he just has to make a tiny movement and I know exactly what he means."

Richard Gere (8/31/1949, Virgo Ox), Julia Roberts (10/28/1967, Scorpio Sheep) : The two actors co-starred memorably in the film Pretty Woman. Roberts has described how she personally pleaded with Gere to accept the role after he turned it down several times: "I just said, 'You have to do this movie. If you don't do this movie and it falls apart and I lose this job, it would just be terrible.'" Director Garry Marshall said in 2012, "[Y]ou can fake anything in this business except chemistry. When two people kiss, the audience knows if there's chemistry or not, and Richard and Julia had great chemistry."

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds

Blake Lively (8/25/1987, Virgo Rabbit), Ryan Reynolds (10/23/1976, Scorpio Dragon) : The two actors have been married since 2012 and have three children together. Lively has described: "[E]verything we do in life we do together. If I’m working on a movie, [Reynolds] helps me with my character; I do the same with him. Picking out a coffee table. What we’re going to eat. He’s a beautiful writer—he’s written a lot of stuff for us. And he’s got a great barometer and he knows me, so he will tell me if it’s not as good as it can be."

Adam Sandler (9/9/1966, Virgo Horse), Rob Schneider (10/31/1963, Scorpio Rabbit) : The two actors have known each other since the 1980s, and have so far collaborated on 18 movies. Asked about their relationship, Schneider described: "Thirty-something years. It’s going on our fifth decade. I think it’s making each other laugh. We still surprise each other, in how we can make each other laugh. It’s always a challenge. There’s a lot of trust. When you’re making a movie, you need to trust the people. Trust is there. You want to be around people who know you and don’t ask too many questions."

Tyga and Wiz Khalifa

Wiz Khalifa (9/8/1987, Virgo Rabbit), Tyga (11/19/1989, Scorpio Snake) : The two rappers are friends who have collaborated multiple times. After Tyga dropped out of the 2014 Under the Influence tour, Khalifa was quoted saying: "We cool, that’s the homie, and that was just a wack move." Tyga tweeted shortly afterward, "@wizkhalifa that's my dawg 4 life." Khalifa later explained: "I wasn't really upset. That's my homie, though, and when you friends, you gotta be able to say stuff out loud like that. [We spoke about it.] He was like, bro, I definitely should have hit you up. I got a little bit busy, I didn't know how to break it to you, so I gotta apologize and man up, and we'll make it right."

Like the elements in Western astrology, the four Trine Families that are central to Eastern astrology divide naturally into two compatible pairs. One such pair comprises the family of the Horse (with the Dog and Tiger) and the family of the Rabbit (with the Pig and Sheep). The Horse and Rabbit may not be the most attention-grabbing match between these two families, but they still profit from the auspicious surrounding energy.

It's not always obvious, given their swashbuckling, go-it-alone character, but the Horse is an idealist at heart. The sensitivity and artistry of the Rabbit thus appeal greatly to the Horse's core values. The Rabbit's gentle nature can also put the Horse at ease, helping them to relax and open up in a way they seldom allow themselves with other signs. The Rabbit, meanwhile, can be easily rattled or disturbed on their own. The Horse's independent spirit fortifies the Rabbit, making them less vulnerable to criticism or drama. This frees the Rabbit to pursue their talents with an unperturbed mind, at peace with the world.

These two will need to keep an eye out for distance between them occasionally. Mutual admiration need not always translate into the strongest alliance. Both parties should make sure the other knows just how much they are valued or loved. The Horse and Rabbit also need to maintain the protection the relationship provides. The Horse is by nature more forceful and independent-minded, and can be selfish or blunt. If outside influences, insensitivity, or neglect are allowed to threaten the cocoon-like quality of this relationship, problems may ricochet around without resolution, especially for the more delicate Rabbit.

Fortunately, the underlying positive energy here means that strategies to avoid potential challenges are likely to work well. This is a relationship that may function best with each party having their own sphere to work in, then joining together to enjoy the special connection they share. Ultimately, these two are likely to recognize and trust in the goodness in the other's heart, which can be a cornerstone of a lasting, nourishing, and inspiring bond.

Taika Waititi (8/16/1975, Leo Rabbit), Rita Ora (11/26/1990, Sagittarius Horse) : The director and singer are rumoured to have become a couple around April 2021 and married quietly during 2022. Ora has said about the relationship: "I've always wanted the fairytale, that's what I grew up loving. For me, it was always about that love, finding a partner, so I'm really happy I did."

Ali MacGraw (4/1/1939, Aries Rabbit), Steve McQueen (3/24/1930, Aries Horse) : The respective stars of Bullitt and Love Story were married from 1973 to 1978. McGraw said in 2018: "He was incredibly attractive most of the time but there was also danger, there was bad boy there. I wish we had both grown old sober. There were wonderful days and dreadful days."

Mackenzie Davis and Kristen Stewart

Mackenzie Davis (4/1/1987, Aries Rabbit), Kristen Stewart (4/9/1990, Aries Horse) : The two actors starred together in the film Happiest Season, said to be "the first mainstream festive romcom about a same-sex couple". Stewart described how the obvious on-screen chemistry never felt forced: "[Davis] is such a real person. I wanted this couple, and the way that we represented these individuals, to feel really casual, sort of self-assured. And Mackenzie is fun and infectious, and she has a confidence that I find contagious. It was really important for me to show a queer couple feeling cool and comfortable and in their own skin. I can’t watch this movie and be like, it’s kind of [expletive]. Anyway, luckily, Mackenzie exists, and there you go."

Jerrod Carmichael (4/6/1987, Aries Rabbit), Bo Burnham (8/21/1990, Leo Horse) : The two comedians are close friends. Burnham directed Carmichael's HBO comedy specials 8 (2017) and Rothaniel (2022), the latter during which Carmichael came out as gay. Carmichael has described: "[Burnham]’s the friend of my dreams, in a way. I’m really happy that we found each other. I trust him with my life, in all ways. And so a lot of the moments you see in Rothaniel, the reason I was able to go there is because he's directing. It's like my best friend's directing, and I can give everything. I don't have to hide anything, that I can take down any wall. He's the best friend you could ask for. He really protected me."


Combined Relationship Horoscope

Final Words

As a Sextile combination, firstwest and secondwest typically share an effortless, joy-filled dynamic, with the only real problem the possibility that they might not take it as seriously as other matches in their lives. For this pair, there is a similarly stress-free combination on the Chinese zodiac side as well, for the firsteast and secondeast share a natural affinity that is highly compatible, even if at times it seems more akin to friendly repartee than star-crossed-lover intensity. Overall, this is a beautiful foundation for any relationship, one with perhaps even greater potential than might appear.
