Western Zodiac
Virgo and Virgo
Compatibility overview
This match represents a true meeting of minds. There may be some locking of horns from time to time, but with their shared affinity for problem-solving and planning for the future, two Virgos share very compatible core values.
Virgo and Virgo - Relationship Horoscope
Characteristically for the Earth signs they are, natives of Virgo tend to have a powerful belief in the virtues of stability, dependability, and effective organization. Indeed, Virgos often believe so strongly in their core values, they cannot believe why anyone would feel differently from them! A connection between two Virgos thus begins on an immediately sure footing.
These two will tend to agree—at least substantially—on the need to face pressing challenges, what those challenges are, and how to formulate effective answers. This potential for consensus can contribute great happiness to a relationship between Virgos. When faced with opposition or a lack of understanding from other signs, they may appear somewhat dour and humourless. But when two Virgos team up together, there is likely to be no shortage of levity. The same analytical skills, attention to detail, and diligence can be as pleasurable in the context of, say, recreational word games or puzzle-solving as they are in more serious professional contexts such as publishing or teaching.
As ever with own-sign matches, there is likely to be an excess of some qualities and a dearth of others, which may contribute instability from time to time. Two Virgos share the Mutable modality, and this may cause some claustrophobic effects. If, for example, these two arrive at different strategies for the future, or have conflicting takes on the need for secrecy or selective disclosure, then serious brooding or conflict could ensue. Thankfully Virgos can be as determined about resolving conflicts as they are about everything else. Although it may not always be pretty, it would be rare for disputes not to get sorted out eventually.
Overall, the strong commonalities and shared commitment to resolving problems here mean this relationship has strong prospects for success in a wide variety of contexts.

Esmail proposed by writing a mock story for the New York Times. Rossum later described: "I began to read the article, and the story is about a director who falls in love with an actress, and I started to think: Huh, that’s strange. And then I realized that it was our love story."
Adam Sandler (9/9/1966, Virgo Horse), Dennis Dugan (9/5/1946, Virgo Dog) : The actor and director have made nine films together, including Happy Gilmore (1996), Big Daddy (1999), I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry (2007), You Don't Mess With the Zohan (2008), Grown Ups (2010), and Grown Ups 2 (2013). At the beginning of their relationship, Dugan tried multiple times without success to cast Sandler in the movie, Brain Donors (1992). After Brain Donors disappointed at the box office, Dugan went to work in TV, then later tried to break back into movies by applying to direct Happy Gilmore (1996). He later described: "[At the meeting] Sandler goes, ‘You!’ And I go, ‘You!’ … He said, ‘You stuck up for me, so you’re doing this movie.'"
John Ritter (9/17/1948, Virgo Rat), Amy Yasbeck (9/12/1962, Virgo Tiger) : The two actors were married from 1999 until Ritter's tragic death in 2003. They had one child, and were also frequent collaborators. Yasbeck described in 2022: "[Ritter] was an excellent person to have on a set and when anybody who's an actor, including me, says, 'Hey, you remind me of John Ritter, how you talk to that camera person or how you're relating with the guest stars,' that is the highest compliment...[He] just didn't turn it on when the audience was there. You were entertained all day long and your ego was fed in an appropriate way. He loved show business. He was almost like a conductor that was also being the symphony. I don't know how he did it, but it was amazing."
Jimmy Connors (9/2/1952, Virgo Dragon), Patti McGuire (9/5/1951, Virgo Rabbit) : The multiple-grand-slam-winning tennis player and model/film producer first met at the Playboy Mansion. After marrying in 1979, McGuire sued for divorce in 1983 due to Connors' infidelities, which he acknowledged in his memoir, The Outsider (2013). However, the two mended their relationship. They have been together for over 44 years and have two children together.
Shania Twain (8/28/1965, Virgo Snake), Kelsea Ballerini (9/12/1993, Virgo Rooster) : The two country music stars have developed a close and supportive friendship. Ballerini described in 2022: "Shania’s my queen. Everyone knows it. My God, what an incredible artist. And the more I get to know her, the more I’m like, 'Of course you’re Shania Twain. You couldn’t be cooler.'...I’ve known her for a couple years now, and we’ve had a really beautiful mentor-mentee relationship...[Recently] I sat on her hotel room balcony for a couple of hours and she just was really honest and open and warm and lovely. Right now, I have fewer artist friendships than I’ve ever had, but the ones that I do have are actual genuine friendships. I put her in that category."
The-Dream (9/20/1977, Virgo Snake), Beyoncé (9/4/1981, Virgo Rooster) : The two singer/songwriter/producers have collaborated on multiple occasions. Beginning with the Grammy-winning monster hit, 'Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)', The-Dream has contributed to each of Beyoncé's subsequent albums, including 14 of the 16 tracks on Renaissance (2022). The-Dream has described: "When thinking about an artist like Beyoncé, I want to try to consider all the different ways this could reach people. I want the song to matter to Beyoncé standing onstage, the person in the front row of the show and that person who’s in the rafters, who barely made it in, got a ticket from a friend last minute. I have to write for each one of them."
Alessandra Rosaldo (9/11/1971, Virgo Pig), Eugenio Derbez (9/2/1961, Virgo Ox) : The two Mexican actors have been married since 2012 and have one child together. They have established a reputation for humorous social media posts about their marriage, with Derbez recently posting: "10 years later, with the commitment to have electricity and water in our home. But above all, with the commitment to continue drawing a smile on your face. Love you."

Chinese Zodiac
Pig and Ox
Compatibility overview
While the Chinese zodiac is well known for extreme judgements about negative or positive matches, the combination of firsteast and secondeast tends not to attract much direct attention. In fact, although this match involves some potentially unsettling energy, there are also fine harmonies at play. Relationships between these contrasting souls may thus prove surprisingly effective.
Pig and Ox - Relationship Horoscope
The 12 signs of the Chinese zodiac are divided into four Trine Families. Relationships between the four families tend to follow patterns similar to the elements in Western astrology. Truth be told, the respective families of the Pig (with the Sheep and Rabbit) and the Ox (with the Snake and Rooster) are generally regarded as not very harmonious, with some of the matches between them quite precarious (e.g., the Pig and the Snake, or the Ox and the Sheep). Fortunately for the Ox and Pig themselves, however, there are some powerful affinities that can aid in making their relationship enjoyable and successful.
The personality of the Pig is associated strongly with homely qualities of comfort and generosity, which can knit superbly with the Ox's defining desire to build security for themselves and their loved ones. Also, the Ox may be characteristically the most determined and hard-working of all the Eastern signs, but the Pig can also be exceptionally productive when they are motivated and relaxed. Hence these two may form a strong bond, whether in family, social, or professional contexts, based on mutual admiration and advancement.
Difficulties between these two are perhaps most likely to stem from tension between the rigidity of the Ox and the trusting naivety of the Pig. In the eyes of the Ox, the Pig may at times seem too easily trodden on or manipulated to deserve respect. The Pig, on the other hand, may sometimes find the Ox to be an unpleasantly blunt instrument, which is likely to draw the Pig into various forms of escapism, punctuated by the odd fit of pique. Overall, there is a need for some independence here, to make sure that over-familiarity is not at risk of breeding contempt.
Given the space they need, however, these two together are quite capable of forming a shared vision about what they can achieve together, then working tirelessly as a partnership to translate their shared aspirations into reality.

Keira Knightley (3/26/1985, Aries Ox), James Righton (8/25/1983, Virgo Pig) : The actor and musician began a relationship in 2011 and married in 2013. They have two children together. Speaking about their different levels of earnings, Knightley has responded: "That’s what our national newspapers are telling girls – that you have to feel guilty about doing well if it’s making a man feel uncomfortable, which it doesn’t with my husband and it didn’t with my dad. But yet our society is telling us that’s what it should be."
George Clooney (5/6/1961, Taurus Ox), Talia Balsam (3/5/1959, Pisces Pig) : The two actors were married from 1989 to 1992, before Clooney embarked on twenty years of world-famous bacherlorhood. Both have continued to speak positively about the other, with Clooney saying, "[I] married the one girl that I truly loved and had loved for years," and, "I probably — definitely — wasn't someone who should have been married at that point. I just don't feel like I gave Talia a fair shot. I was responsible for the failure of that marriage." After appearing in HBO's Divorce (2016-2019), Balsam said: "If you're trying to compare [Clooney] to Thomas Haden Church's character, not at all. Absolutely, George is charming. He remains charming. I've worked with him."
Rooney Mara (4/17/1985, Aries Ox), Kate Mara (2/27/1983, Pisces Pig) : The sisters are both award-winning actors. Kate Mara described: "[F]rom the time I was 14 ‘til, I think, my sister [Rooney] started acting when I was 20, 21, I didn’t have someone to share this craziness with. So when she became an actor, we actually lived together in my apartment for the first year or two. We would both go on auditions and come home and talk about the terror of certain auditions and funny stories and so it just became something super special that you can actually bond with a sibling with which is very rare."
Tabitha King (3/24/1949, Aries Ox), Stephen King (9/21/1947, Virgo Pig) : The two authors have been married since 1971. After an Associated Press article referred to a donation having been made by "Stephen King and his wife", Tabitha published a statement saying, "Wife is a relationship or status. It is not an identity...You could have made other choices. You could have referred to me as OfStephen. Or His Old Lady. Or His-Ball-And-Chain."
Paul Shaffer (11/28/1949, Sagittarius Ox), David Letterman (4/12/1947, Aries Pig) : The talk show host and musician famously collaborated on both Late Night with David Letterman (1982–1993) and The Late Show with David Letterman (1993–2015). Letterman described: "We did 6,000 shows together, and [Shaffer] was the most important part of my life for every one of those 6,000 shows. Whether the show was good, not good, mediocre, ugly, awful, Paul Shaffer, you can count on him and the fantastic music. The thing that I miss most, other than the friends that I worked with, is not having the great privilege of live music every night."

Final Words
The combination of two firstwest natives gives this relationship the dependable bedrock of a shared element, even if overfamiliarity sometimes causes a lack of excitement or makes dispute resolution difficult. The energy between the firsteast and secondeast involves perhaps a little more hesitation, but these signs can greatly admire each other, and with sensitivity and respect are likely to forge a supportive and lasting connection.
