An unusual kind of thinker
These two mutable signs form a square. Virgo loves particulars, and Sagittarius loves sweeping conclusions. You can generalize without losing track of the details, and you can change your mind at speed when the facts change. Your directness, optimism and dash make you very good company, and they’re useful assets in nearly any kind of work.
You also like to examine life. The question of what it’s all for doesn’t go away for you. It simply gets a new reading list.
The gap between the ideal and the person
What you need in a relationship is someone whose mind you enjoy, and plenty of room. You don’t want to be under anyone’s thumb but your own. Your feelings tend to be idealistic and humane, and you often express them by doing something useful.
Your difficulty is that you keep looking for an example of perfection. Then you meet the real person, who chews loudly and is sometimes wrong, and you feel let down, again and again, without quite noticing the pattern. There’s also a funny mix of beliefs in you: everyone’s equal, and yet there’s clearly a correct order to things, and it’s so obvious that you can’t see why anyone would argue with it.
This isn’t a shy or inhibited placement for a Virgo. You’ve got a warm and lively attitude to physical love, and a claustrophobic atmosphere won’t suit you at all.
Falling for the actual one
When disappointment arrives, ask yourself whether they’ve changed or whether they’ve simply stopped resembling your theory. Keep a short list of the things this person really does that you love, since those are the facts you value. And let people hold different views of how things should run. Being sure you can see the right order of things is very different from being asked to arrange anyone else’s life.
