What Virgo looks for in a soulmate

Virgo shows love through practical help. This sign notices details, keeps promises and wants a partner who does the same. A Virgo soulmate is reliable, kind about the high standards this sign sets, and able to help Virgo relax instead of worrying about what could be better.

The best soulmate signs for Virgo

In astrology, signs that share an element sit four signs apart on the zodiac wheel. That angle is called a trine, and tradition treats it as the most harmonious match. For Virgo, an earth sign, the two trine signs are Capricorn and Taurus.

Virgo and Capricorn

Both are hard working and realistic, and both respect commitment. Tradition reads this as one of the steadiest pairs in the zodiac.

Virgo and Taurus

Both are practical and loyal, and both show love by doing things. Tradition treats this as a calm, dependable match that builds slowly.

Virgo with Scorpio or Cancer

These signs sit two signs away from Virgo, an angle called a sextile, and they belong to a compatible element. Water nourishes earth. Virgo brings steadiness and Scorpio and Cancer bring feeling, so tradition calls these easy, supportive matches.

Virgo and Pisces, the opposite sign

Virgo brings order and Pisces brings imagination. Each softens the other, which makes this one of the gentler opposite pairs.

What a sun sign cannot tell you

Your sun sign is one factor in astrology. A full birth chart also has a moon sign, a rising sign and the positions of Venus and Mars, and those need your exact birth time and place. There is no scientific evidence that star signs predict how a relationship will go, so treat these matches as entertainment and as a prompt for thinking about what you want in a partner.
