Virgo and Sagittarius Love and Marriage Compatibility 2019

Sagittarius and Virgo Compatibility – The Definitive Guide

One’s an outlandish thinker, in love with freedom, and the other’s a pragmatic intellectual who likes all their ducks in a row – it’s a fine mix indeed when Sagittarius and Virgo partner up.

But of course, such contrasting views on life can create as many attracting opposites as areas of friction.

There’s a lot of ground to cover here, so it’s not your fault at all if you feel daunted. While both of these zodiac signs are super friendly, they won’t always understand one another’s ways of being.

Avoid those problems with some insight into Sagittarius and Virgo – the definitive guide to seeing if love can last for this pairing.

Sagittarius and Virgo compatibility overview

While both of these star signs have birthdays towards the end of the year, there’s lots of key differences in philosophy, opinion and overall lifestyle approach to consider between Sagittarius and Virgo in love.

Getting to the bottom of this quirky duo means understanding each sign individually. The mythology and symbolism of astrology overall does much to help illuminate the best way forward here, and by comprehending these signs’ differences, you can unlock their strengths.

First in the calendar, born in late August or the initial two-thirds of September, is Virgo. This is a star sign symbolised in ancient times by the virgin, or in more modern times by the maiden whose life is ruled by curiosity and intellect.

Because of this, Virgo people have a bit of a stereotype in astrology as being very shy.

If you’ve ever discussed this with a Virgo yourself, you’ll find they often bristle against this description of them – it’s far too broad a brush stroke to sum up these smart and complex people.

Rather, Virgo people see no reason in speaking if there’s nothing to say. And don’t be fooled by their love of alone time either – some of the greatest and most outlandish performers, including Freddie Mercury and Michael Jackson, were Virgo people. One could hardly call those fellows shy!

As a general rule though, Virgo people are keenly fond of order, method and logic.

Heavy emotions are avoided because of how they can cloud the mind – a sentiment that Virgo and Sagittarius lovers can agree on. However, Sagittarius folks find Virgo’s need for plans and advanced strategies far too slow.

That’s because Sagittarius a star sign ruled by the mythical centaur – or by the horse, in more grounded astrological overviews.

Either way, that symbolism speaks to speed, adventure and a hatred of being constricted. Sagittarius people are warm and good-natured, but very in the moment in their thinking.

Remember, in astrology, Sagittarius is also ruled by the bow and arrow, or symbolism of archery.

Just as the arrow let fly will flit forwards without deviating from its path – piercing to the heart of the matter, so to speak – so too are Sagittarius people swift and direct.

These are people who shoot from the hip, speak their mind (sometimes without thinking), and jump in feet first into any situation promising fun, truth and insight.

While Virgo prizes smartness and truth just as much, they prefer a more methodical and analytical approach.

While out discussion today will cover lots of the pros and cons of Virgo and Sagittarius dating, this key difference – impulsiveness versus rumination – is an inescapable part of the Sagittarius and

Virgo relationship. It will be an eternal debate these two return to time and time again in their lives together.

Matches between the Sagittarius woman and Virgo man

Imagine if you will those romantic comedy movies, where the strait-laced man has his life turned upside down by the kooky antics of a free-spirited young woman as they fall in love.

That’s a surprisingly apt analogy for the relationship between a Sagittarius woman and Virgo man.

She’s a free spirit to the very letter, often demonstrating that by moving through the world on whims and feelings.

Good fortune seems to smile on her anywhere she roams – any trouble she gets into seems to dissolve away before it gets too oppressive, and she always seems to have the means to get her way.

That personal freedom is hugely important to her, and the Sagittarius woman likewise has little respect for overbearing rules in society.

This isn’t just outdated notions like stereotypical gender roles – she’ll also look and dress how she wants, for instance, rather than according to fashion.

This could well sound rebellious and aggressive, but the Sagittarius woman is also one of the warmest and funniest souls you could hope to meet.

Indeed, she doesn’t take like in a combative way, but rather a comical one – if she refuses to do something, it’s only because she finds it laughable.

The Virgo man, as entrenched as he is in solving problems, overcoming challenges and conceiving new ways of increasing efficiency at work as much as in life, quickly notices that quick humour of hers.

And while he’s far from a stereotypical romantic – and good for him, because the Sagittarius woman finds all that stuff pretentious and silly anyway – he certainly knows how to but his best foot forward.

The Sagittarius woman, in keeping with being someone who knows her own mind, doesn’t go for the usual kind of man very often.

The kindness, compassion, good sense of humour and overall moral fibre of the Virgo man is therefore sure to appeal to her.

Without meaning to, she’ll tend to take the lead as dates go forward though. She can’t help but pile on the activities, no matter how precisely the Virgo man has planned the evening.

Walk past a bar doing salsa classes, for instance, and she’ll happily drag him inside without warning!

This fun and excitement does much to help the Virgo man come out of his shell and broaden his horizons.

However, the impetuous nature of the Sagittarius woman will become less inspiring later in the relationship – as will her constant levity.

Conversely, the Sagittarius woman will believe that the Virgo man is taking everything far too seriously.

He’ll respond poorly to her needs to get out and seek adventure at every opportunity, and will similarly have a need to control his environment in ways she finds unnatural and, unfortunately, unattractive as time goes on.

The good points:

Fun, mischief and bold behaviour are the gifts the Virgo man receives from his daring and delightful Sagittarius woman
The Virgo man’s intelligence and insight proves endlessly fascinating to the inquisitive Sagittarius woman
While loyal, neither of these star signs likes too much soppiness in love, and find a good balance here in one another

The bad points:

The Sagittarius woman does what she wants when she wants it, often trampling the Virgo man’s plans by mistake as she does so
Likewise, the Virgo man’s studious and precise need for everything to be organised kills the spontaneousness the Sagittarius woman adores
The Virgo man takes life seriously, yet it seems to the Sagittarius woman to be all a game – there’s little middle ground

Matches between the Sagittarius man and Virgo woman

A relationship between the Sagittarius man and Virgo woman is one in which the unique and adventurous crosses paths with the traditional and mysterious.

In part, that’s because the Virgo woman will let her nurturing side become a guiding hand to the Sagittarius man.

She’s too intelligent to presume she can ever fully control him though, and she’s wise to have that knowledge – even if it means she’s biting her tongue more often than not.

The Sagittarius man is a free spirit from head to toe, and is swift to move on from any situation in which he feels trapped.

This can make relationships with him have a flash in the pan quality that could put off the Virgo woman – she prefers to know she’s investing in someone for a long term bond.

However, the Sagittarius man is more loyal than he lets on, as long as he’s not forced into a lifestyle he doesn’t want.

His big grin, goofy humour and endless tales of far-flung lands, travelled as soon as he was big enough and wealthy enough for the fare, are sure to inspire the Virgo woman.

There’s part of her who longs to see beyond the well oiled machine she’s made her life into, and he can give that to her.

The fast-moving Sagittarius man will need to mind his manners during courtship though.

Always swift to speak his mind, he could well feel tempted to smile cheerily and jerk a thumb towards his bedroom when the Virgo woman arrives on the scene.

Her natural beauty and quiet grace is likely inspiration for this, but he’ll have to do the impossibe and curtail his impulses here.

Instead, she appreciates a man who takes his time and gets to know her gradually. If he can make this fun, the Sagittarius man will love the chase.

Jut make sure he doesn’t get bored once he’s won the game though – or during the playing thereof.

The Sagittarius man bores easily, and will waste no time packing his bags and moving on if he feels suitably inclined. This can be because he feels stifled, but just as easily because he’s found a fun distraction.

The Virgo woman is inclined to worry already, so learning this can top her into full on anxiety day after day.

Yet the more she vocalises this, the less sympathetic the Sagittarius man seems to be – he doesn’t believe in wasting time worrying.

In fact, he’s so carefree that the Virgo woman could well wonder ig he cares about anything at all, other than whatever feels the most fun.

This does him discredit, for he’s smart and insightful in his own way – but differences in perspective on life prevent this couple talking out the perks they have.

The good points:

The Sagittarius man is never held back in life for long, and through a wink, a smile and some mysterious good luck, he always steers the couple’s lives right
The Virgo woman is the zodiac’s most organised, precise and capable planner – the Sagittarius man could begrudgingly admit he’s grateful for her skills here
The Virgo woman is more sensual than astrology often gives her credit for – a secret that Sagittarius man will be happy to discover

The bad points:

Slow and steady wins the race for the Virgo woman’s heart – but aren’t races meant to be fast, the Sagittarius man asks? He could well jump ship during courtship out of boredom
The Virgo woman likes to know things in advance, to schedule and to organise, yet the Sagittarius man just runs around doing whatever
The Virgo woman has a critical streak and can be snippy with the Sagittarius man, who could feel like he can never live up to her standards

Sagittarius and Virgo friendship compatibility

Since the dawn of the theatre, we’ve seen the classic funny man, straight man routine – and although the genders involved might be a little different, this kind of dynamic isn’t far from how a Sagittarius and Virgo friendship can be!

On the one hand, we have Sagittarius – wild, free, outlandish and always inspired by the next horizon. Contrasting them, their Virgo friend – studious, submissive, but perhaps a touch sarcastic when the time calls too.

It’s certainly humour that connects the Sagittarius and Virgo friends together. In fact, more often than not, the Sagittarius individual sees no merit in doing something in life that doesn’t come with a punchline, or at least some fun along the way.

Ever serious Virgo tends to learn from that approach, whether they mean to or not, and as a consequence ends up worrying less.

A boon indeed for these renowned over-thinkers – who are just as apt to teach Sagittarius how to slow down and plan things out sometimes too.

When things in life don’t go to plan, Virgo is far less capable of rolling with the punches as Sagittarius is, and could become morose.

Yet have no fear, because nobody knows how to turn that frown upside down like the Sagittarius friend.

However, the Sagittarius soul in question is not to be considered a clown only. A less discussed, but hugely important, aspect of the Sagittarius psyche is the need to uncover and explore the truth in all aspects of life.

This is the one thing in this world that Sagittarius is guaranteed to take seriously. And how wonderful to not only share this side of themselves with a Virgo friend, but learn to count on their analytical and intellectual skills to unravel those deep secrets they so desire.

Sagittarius and Virgo marriage compatibility

When discussing Sagittarius and Virgo married life, it’s important to recognise that one of these lovers is intrinsically more inclined towards long term relationships than the other.

In fact, Virgo doesn’t enter into any relationship lightly, in part for this reason.

Furthermore, Virgo is far more interested in tradition than Sagittarius is. As a result of both of these traits, Virgo is far more interested in marriage than Sagittarius tends to be.

The latter might need some convincing, fearing marriage will contain them too much.

Indeed, Sagittarius is secretly terrified of losing themselves in some way or being controlled, so even as the marriage progresses, the Virgo spouse will need to ensure there is plenty of personal freedom.

By the same token, the Sagittarius spouse must learn to appreciate that their actions now directly impact their partner – it could be a tough pill to swallow, but the pros could well outweigh the cons with enough patience.

Patience is a Virgo inherent to the Virgo spouse, and they are more than ready to roll up their sleeves and work at the marriage.

Yet because Sagittarius is so fond of fun, they might feel like they’re the only ones putting the work in half the time.

Compromise is vital for this marriage to succeed, and for all their differences, it’s undeniable that both Sagittarius and Virgo are at least smart and companionable people.

Both will find that their need for independence is mutually respected too.

Nonetheless, this is a relationship in which each partner will need to get on top of many aspects of their nature that can’t help but undermine the other.

Sagittarius especially should be careful not to fold their cards and leave the table here unduly if things don’t feel fun – love isn’t always playful.

Sagittarius and Virgo: Common issues and problems

While many of the problems in a Sagittarius and Virgo relationship arise due to the gulf between spontaneous action and meticulous long term planning, it’s important that you dig deeper too.

There are other issues that you can be forewarned and forearmed against if you do.

For instance, cutting words from both partners are an issue best avoided, and it’s something they’ll both have to work on.

Virgo has exacting standards in life and can be quick to criticise those things – or individuals – that fall short, for example.

In the case of friendly Sagittarius, it can be baffling to imagine them saying an unkind word to anyone.

However, if they do, it’s due to their penchant for shooting from the hip – they’ll speak their thoughts as soon as they pop into their minds, not realising they rub folks the wrong way.

Virgo hates tactlessness and a lack of manners, but mustn’t jump to conclusions when Sagittarius accidentally runs his or her mouth – they genuinely aren’t trying to cause offence!

again, so high are Virgo’s standards that they could prove unforgiving.

Sagittarius approaches everything with a keen sense of humour that Virgo could occasionally find entirely inappropriate.

Yet they don’t realise that their insistence that everything is taken seriously just cracks Sagittarius up all the more!

Sagittarius souls exist in some ways to satirise the more ludicrous aspects of our species and society, but Virgo respects tradition and method so much that it’s almost impossible to see that perspective.

Virgo is also a star sign keen to create a life of regularity in thought and deed, and with intelligent routines that maximise efficiency.

To those Sagittarius people reading this, their eyes have already rolled at that very sentence – what a boring way to be!

But Virgo doesn’t appreciate having their way of life undermined and more than Sagittarius chuckles and waves their hand dismissively whenever theur more impulsive activities come under fire.

My expert opinion and final thoughts

While no relationship in astrology is ever truly impossible with the right approach, in the case of Sagittarius and Virgo in love, it’s important to both go in with eyes wide open.

Luckily, both of these star signs tend to be very wise, even if one doesn’t show it quite so readily.

This is a relationship combining two astrological elements that often find it difficult to gel well – fire and earth.

As you might expect, Sagittarius is ruled by the fire element, representing warmth, boundless energy and sparky impulses.

Virgo is dependable, takes their time and engages with the world with their mind – all very core values of earth sign folks.

Yet just as throwing earth on a fire smothers the flame, and an open fire scorches the ground, these two elements don’t mix too well.

However, if Sagittarius can learn to question the merits of their impulses, just as much as Virgo can loosen up and go with the flow sometimes, there can be potential to this match.

Living and letting live means that Sagittarius and Virgo in love can let their innate strengths further both the relationship and their lives and individuals.

They won’t always understand one another’s methods, but by respecting them each, they can avoid being hurt by them too.
