Capricorn and Virgo Compatibility

There are numerous types of relationships to explore when considering compatibility between two signs. We grow up in a parent/child dynamic. Outside our family, we form friendships with other children and eventually other adults. We look for and find love. And, we go to work and have careers, interacting with employers and co-workers.

Each sign-to-sign interaction guides our behavior in every relationship. Read through this section to find out how each of the above dynamics works astrologically so you can experience the optimal way to communicate and get along with your sign and all the other signs.

Generally Speaking

The Virgo-and-Capricorn interaction can be one of the best, which is often the case when earth signs mix. Virgo is the “I serve” sign of the Zodiac, and is diligent, methodical, and perfectionist. Capricorn is the “I produce” sign of the Zodiac and is responsible, goal-driven, and practical. A long-term relationship (outside parent/child) is very possible and highly likely. In essence, this match is the ideal manager/employee dynamic, with Capricorn leading and Virgo following.

Virgo Parent/Capricorn Child

The Virgo parent and Capricorn child can be very good, but not as ideal as the reverse. The Virgo parent is here to teach the Capricorn child how to manage life and problem solve. This guidance is very helpful to the Capricorn child, who has an intense desire to succeed and grow up fast. A Virgo parent can give a child the knowledge and skills to succeed, which is ideal for the Capricorn child, which is why they work together even when the mutable sign (Virgo) is in charge.

Capricorn Parent/Virgo Child

The Capricorn parent and Virgo child will be among the best alignments. The Capricorn parent will help the Virgo child understand the importance of holding people accountable, setting goals, and being responsible. A Capricorn parent can be quite demanding, with high expectations, which a Virgo child can meet if they learn the processes and skills needed to reach their goals. The child will enjoy trying to achieve what their Capricorn parent expects, which is for them to perform at a high level without fanfare or glory because achieving at a high level is what you are supposed to do.

Virgo Friend/Capricorn Friend

Virgo and Capricorn friendships are likely to be strong and enduring. Virgo likes to serve and provide practical help to others. Capricorn is all business and prefers to lead in ways that result in prosperity for all. In truth, they can both succeed at high levels working together and can make each other better by reinforcing each other’s strengths. A positive and lasting friendship will be the result of repeated successes doing things together as friends, helping others out, and maybe even going into business together.

Virgo Lover/Capricorn Lover

This romance, love, sex combination can be very physical and most enjoyable. All earth signs enjoy the pleasures of the body, taking care of their health, and long-term commitments that bring prosperity and safety through material success. Love is a healthy bank account, savings, a nice home, good food, and plenty of sex. Both signs will have no problem indulging as part of the rewards of hard work in their lives together.

Virgo Employer/Capricorn Employee

The Virgo employer and the Capricorn employee can work well together so long as the Capricorn can be promoted and keep achieving new goals. Virgo wants to see all his or her employees work efficiently and be productive, and Capricorn can be a team player if he can lead the team. The Capricorn, who is self-motivated, will find benefits from a boss who understands their need to keep achieving. So long as their pursuit of success meets the Virgo boss’s expectations for efficiency and success; all is well.

Capricorn Employer/Virgo Employee

If the employer is a Capricorn and the employee is Virgo, this dynamic is by far the best. Capricorn needs employees that can be efficient, capable, and service-oriented, which Virgo, in business, can do. This setup is certainly one that leverages the leadership energy of the cardinal sign (Capricorn) and the adaptable energy of the mutable sign (Virgo). The first rules the area of the astrology chart that deals with career and the other rules the area of the chart that deals with skills and service, the 10^th and 6^th houses respectively.

Virgo Co-worker/Capricorn Co-worker

This combination requires almost no effort on the part of management; they will manage themselves just fine, either individually or as a team. If they do need to work together, they will likely excel past any other combination of co-workers. They can handle high-pressure situations or mundane, but necessary work. They are both dedicated and determined, so they will enjoy being co-workers in a business.
