When Aries and Virgo come together in a love match, they
may think at first that they have nothing in common and nothing to
learn
from one another. This relationship takes time to develop as each
partner must learn to understand where the other is coming from. Aries
and Virgo can seem like total opposites: While Aries is brash, dominant
and aggressive, always jumping into new things and almost always
impatient, Virgo is detail-oriented and quiet, even shy, and works
patiently toward long-term goals. Aries's energy is fiery and
impetuous
while Virgo's is much slower and more grounded. It's these very
differences, however, that can teach Aries and Virgo so much, once they
just look beneath one another's surfaces to see what lies beneath.
Early in the relationship, Aries and Virgo may see nothing but
one another's faults. Virgo thinks Aries is way too brash, and Aries
thinks Virgo is extremely fussy. But if they focus on one another's
strengths instead, they'll discover a great deal. Aries teaches Virgo
about fun and excitement, about the spontaneity that is often missing
in
Virgo's life. Virgo teaches Aries patience and attention to detail,
the
knowledge that the little things -- and moments -- are important too.
Aries can teach their Virgo lover to take things less seriously. Virgo
can teach Aries to be polite and value hard work.
Aries is ruled
by the Planet Mars and Virgo is ruled by the Planet Mercury. Aries
wants
to rush out and fight without wasting time preplanning or strategizing.
Conversely, Virgo wants to analyze everything and work out all the
details before acting. These are such opposite approaches that strife
can result. Both Signs must make a conscious effort to learn from one
another's method rather than letting their partner's natural rhythm
bother to the point of distraction.
Aries is a Fire Sign and
Virgo is an Earth Sign. Where Aries is all fiery impetuosity, Virgo is
grounded practicality. Virgo weighs all the options before devoting any
serious effort, while Aries simply sees what they want and dives in!
This is true both in career and in personal relationships -- which can
be something of a stumbling block. If Aries has decided it's Virgo
they
want, they might be frustrated for some time to come, waiting for Virgo
to make up their mind about whether the relationship is a good idea.
Aries is a Cardinal Sign and Virgo is a Mutable Sign. Virgo
doesn't need to be the leader or the boss; they're glad to follow
another's suggestion once they decide it's a viable one. Aries, on
the
other hand, wants to make those suggestions -- every time. This is a
beneficial dynamic if these two Signs are working as a team toward a
common goal.
What's the best aspect of the Aries-Virgo
relationship? Their great effectiveness as a team -- business or
personal. Their personalities, opposite in so many ways, make for a
highly complementary relationship.
