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.

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 (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 (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."
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."

Compatibility overview
Among all the Eastern signs, this combination stands out as one of the most compatible own-sign matches. With two natives of the same sign, some lack of balance is inevitable, and in this case friendship and solidarity may come more easily than heart-to-heart love affairs. That said, these two usually share a bedrock of similar values and compatible approaches to life, so in any context there is likely to be ample opportunity for closeness, humor, and support.

Eastern astrology relies fundamentally on four Trine Families. The family of the Rat (which includes the Monkey and Dragon) emphasizes creativity above all—liveliness, ingenuity, and unpredictability. Though the Rat is no slouch when it comes to genius schemes, visionary expression, or surprising innovations, they are also the most consistent and stable member of their family. Two Rat natives together can thus be expected to find common ground easily. They will usually find much to admire in each other's gifts for insightful strategy, delicate handling of information, and witty repartee. In conversation, the Rat is typically a captivating blend of charm, vibrancy, and wordplay—traits that can prove twice as rewarding when mirrored in a friend, colleague, or romantic interest. While the Rat may sometimes seem opportunistic, part of the reason for this is that they are genuinely fascinated by what makes others tick. Hence two natives of the Rat sign will often engage in a highly infectious atmosphere of earnestness and interest. Perhaps the most important affinity between these signs, however, is the depth of their attachment.
The Rat can be a faithful and dependable ally, with an instinctive capacity for forming strong emotional connections. As a pairing, these two tend to build mutual trust quickly and may depend on one another long into the future. All own sign matches have to deal with a potential overabundance of some qualities and a lack of others. For two natives of the Rat sign, this can result in a certain guardedness. The Rat's talent for secrecy is legendary, and together they may sense that they are both being selective about what they disclose. Also, their wonderful communication skills can bring more pure pleasure in the context of a broader spectrum of energy. Two Rat natives may find they are at their happiest sharing their relationship with other company, or that over time they share quite brief, though often intensely meaningful, exchanges. Sometimes professional, familial, or friendship-based relationships may prove more straightforward than intimate connections. Overall, though, these are two highly compatible souls, and their connection provides a strong foundation for an enduring, reliable, and enriching bond.

Al Gore (3/31/1948, Aries Rat), Tipper Gore (8/19/1948, Leo Rat) : The former Vice President and Second Lady of the United States were married from 1970 until they separated in 2010. They have four children together. In 2002, they co-wrote the book Joined at the Heart: The Transformation of the American Family, which described: "[D]uring thirty-two years of marriage, there have been plenty of disagreements, arguments, stresses, and fights…Luckily, we have also had plenty of joy, happiness, play, and pleasure, and we have learned to deeply appreciate those wonderful qualities we see clearly in each other, while accepting what cannot change. It has helped us a lot to laugh at ourselves and at each other…[T]he most important aspect of our journey together has been our willingness to work through our differences and to value and respect the fact that we share such similar goals and values in life."
Colin Firth (9/10/1960, Virgo Rat), Stanley Tucci (11/11/1960, Scorpio Rat) : The two actors have been good friends for over 20 years. Describing their collaboration in the film Supernova, Tucci said: "Working with Colin was just a joy. He's a joy. He's a brilliant actor, but he's also one of my best friends. We've known each other for so long, and we've both been through things, personally, that we've helped each other through and been there for really wonderful times. It's just nice to have that history...There's so much trust that has to be there. So when you know somebody really well, and you love them, like I love Colin, it's really fun. You see actors playing close friends, and there's that sort of jocular stuff that happens — that's the hardest stuff to recreate, more than the drama. And for us, that was just there. And that is not dissimilar from the way we are."
Olivia Newton-John (9/26/1948, Libra Rat), Delta Goodrem (11/9/1984, Scorpio Rat) : The two singer/actors became friends after Newton-John wrote to Goodrem, who was in hospital with cancer as an eighteen-year-old, sharing encouragement and drawing on her own cancer journey. They later collaborated, with Goodrem writing songs for Newton-John and playing her in the biopic, Olivia Newton-John: Hopelessly Devoted to You. After Newton-John died in 2022, Goodrem posted on Instagram: "The whole world will feel this heartbreak today because the entire world felt Olivia’s unmatched light. A force for good. A force of nature. Strong and kind. my mentor, my friend, my inspiration, someone who always guided me… she was always there for me. Family to me. I don’t have all the words I would like to say today but I hope everyone will join in celebrating our beloved Olivia, her heart, soul, talent, courage, grace…I love you forever ❤️ 💔."
Sinéad Cusack (2/18/1948, Aquarius Rat), Jeremy Irons (9/19/1948, Virgo Rat) : The two actors have been married since 1978 and have two sons. When they met, Irons mistakenly called Cusack "Siobhan" instead of Sinéad, prompting her to slap his face. Irons has described: "It's a stormy marriage, I'm pleased to say. I'm a difficult person, my wife's a difficult person. Living together is difficult, but that is precisely what we both need."
Carmelo Anthony (5/29/1984, Gemini Rat), LeBron James (12/30/1984, Capricorn Rat) : The two successful professional basketball players have been close friends since their high school teams played in 2002, a game where James scored 36 points and Anthony 34. Anthony described: "[The night before the game] we sat there for hours, just kickin’ it, just talking, man. And we clicked from that moment. We just felt like we had similar backgrounds, single-parent home, broken family, growing up in the hood. That was a similar story, so we connected off of that before basketball. I was looking for some type of relationship like that with somebody, and he was looking for that as well. So, we came in each other’s lives at the right time because we was both looking for that brotherhood."

Final Words
The Sextile match of firstwest and secondwest is one of the most dependable combinations in the Western zodiac, so from the beginning these two will likely share a good-natured and pleasurable connection. This natural camaraderie may be enhanced by the own-sign combination of firsteast and secondeast, which offers plenty of scope for a shared outlook and mutual admiration. There are limitations—the Sextile is sometimes so easy-breezy both signs overlook its potential, while the lack of balance on the Eastern side may at times cramp the relationship or make dispute resolution difficult. On balance, though, these are two kindred spirits, with excellent prospects of providing each other with long-term support, tenderness, and enjoyment.
