This article is in two halves, the first is written from the viewpoint of the Virgo man or Virgo woman, and the second is written from the viewpoint of the Scorpio man or Scorpio woman.

From the Virgo viewpoint

You’ll admire your Scorpios confidence, strength and stubbornness, and find yourself trusting them easily. You’ll find your Scorpio can understand what you’re feeling and thinking without much effort, and this works very well for you.

Your Scorpio likes to be in control of a relationship, and you won’t mind that as they allow you plenty of personal space at the same time.

Scorpio is an emotional sign, and attempting to figure them out with logic doesn't always get very far. Every time you think you’re getting close to doing so you’ll find a new layer of detail. You may want to give up on this early, as you could spend the next 50 years analyzing them and still not be much farther than when you started!

One quirk of this combination is that initially your Scorpio will probably do most of the talking, but as time goes on you’ll find that role reverses, and you become the chatty one, perhaps wondering what happened! This is totally normal, Scorpio can be a notoriously silent lover once comfortable with a partner, and it won’t be because of you.

You both value solitude and alone time, and can both be fairly unsociable.

Be wary of your Scorpios moods, and try not to criticize at bad times. Your Scorpio is deep, passionate and volatile in all things, and incurring their wrath isn’t a good idea when it’s avoidable.

If you have issues with self confidence, then don’t judge yourself by Scorpios standards. They’re the masters of self confidence, and any other partner will fall short. It’s that confidence which makes them so sexy, so enjoy it! Along those lines, in new relationships it's very easy for a Virgo to be intimidated by Scorpios. For any Virgos at that point in relationships - hang in there, it's worth it!

Virgo Scorpio sex

Your Scorpio will be in control here, and you probably won’t have any complaints about that. This is a partner who will tempt you to do all sorts of things that a less passionate lover wouldn’t, and very likely raise the bar in terms of what you expect from sex.

It’s important to note however that we’re looking only at sun signs here. There are many other planets which can have an equal or greater effect on someones personality. Makes sense, as ultimately everyone is of course unique. Generalizing too far based just on sun signs can therefore be misleading.

To fully understand someone or how compatible you are with them we need to calculate those other planet placements from their date of birth, and compare them to your own, and then interpret the results.

This unlocks the real power of astrology, and gives much more useful and specific information – everything from how they view you, how to turn them on, how to avoid arguments etc. If you would like to explore this further please see the astrology compatibility reports page.

From the Scorpio viewpoint

Scorpio and Virgo Compatibility

Virgo can be shy, timid and reserved, and your strong personality, supreme confidence and caring nature will sit well with this partner, while you’ll find they add emotional stability and a level of organization to your life, which you sometimes lack.

Virgo is a cautious and reserved sign, and one difficulty your different personalities can lead to is during the start of the relatioship. You're much more aggresive when pursuing something you want, and if your Virgo appears uninterested by your standards, that's fairly normal.

This continues further on in the realtionship. You’ll want control, and this is a partner who will be mostly willing to give you it. This has its benefits, for one you'll find your Virgos relative lack of resistance makes for a partner who brings out your gentler side.

One quirk of this combination is that initially you’ll probably do most of the talking (and pursuing), but as time goes on you’ll find that role reverses, and your Virgo becomes the chatty one, perhaps wondering what happened.

You can be secretive, stubborn and volatile, while Virgo is analytical, intellectual and sometimes overly critical. Accept these differences, and don’t let them spoil what is otherwise a near perfect team. You both value solitude and alone time, and can both be fairly unsociable. Virgo is very self sufficient, a quality you’ll come to appreciate more once trust and understanding have been established.

There won’t be any issues with overspending or not working as a team financially. You’re very much on the same page in this area.

Scorpio Virgo sex

As in all areas, your Virgo is more reserved than you are, and generally far less emotional. You’ll almost certainly be in control in the bedroom if you choose to be, so be wary of getting too carried away in the early stages of your relationship. In the long term however you’ll find this is a lover who definitely appreciates your confidence and style.

Summary

So is this article conclusive?

No! This article is based only on sun sign interaction. In order to provide a lot of people with information it's a convenient and fast way to generalize, but it's far from conclusive at this broad level.

To get a complete picture we need to take all the other planets and their interactions into account. If you would like more information for your unique relationship please see the astrology compatibility reports page.

Other resources

Often the hardest questions to ask are the most important - for example, what are their views and expectations for raising children? sharing housework? saving money? career goals? etc.

One subtle and fun way to approach this is by working through a couples question book together - that way it's not really you asking, and delicate subjects can be covered easily. The best book for this I've found is Michael Webb's 1000 Questions For Couples

For reviews of this and other relationship ebooks on subjects ranging from improving your sex life to getting an ex back please see the relationship ebook reviews page.

A third method of further research is to share experiences with other couples of this same sign combination - you may be amazed how consistent they often are. Please see the links below for visitor experiences and questions.

In any relationship there are also very significant external factors. One of these is how well you understand yourself, your partner and your partnership - the more you do, the easier it is to make the relationship more exciting, fulfilling and satisfying for both of you, regardless of your starting position. The articles on how to Make him fall in love with you and Make her fall in love with you have information on how you can use astrology to revitalize a relationship.
