The Virgo/Pisces combination can mean two women meeting each other's true expectations in the relationship arena. But there are difficulties: Virgo and Pisces are complementary opposites in the zodiac and can therefore conflict or complement each other. Earthy Virgo is concerned with being grounded and having a very practical understanding of her life's path; watery Pisces approaches life through deeply-felt emotions and empathy with others. These two women can support and nourish each other, but they each have a strong need to sacrifice themselves in a relationship. The Virgo woman sacrifices herself through her conscientiousness about self-perfection, and the Pisces woman sacrifices herself by surrendering her soul out of compassion for her partner. Each woman must work at not losing herself while in this relationship. These two women are anxious to be supportive of each other, but misunderstandings do and will arise because each approaches and gives support in different ways. The Virgo woman both gives and receives support from the point of view of responsibility and expectancy; the Pisces woman both gives and receives support out of her feelings of empathy for her partner. She may find it hard to deal with her Virgo partner's explicit demands and expectations. To the Virgo the Pisces is a sympathetic partner, but she may seem ruled by her feelings at that moment and can appear undependable. The Virgo wants to know when and under what circumstances she will be supported, and the Pisces really never knows the conditions of her love.
The Virgo and Pisces women are strongly motivated to work toward union because they are innately concerned with helping and loving each other. At best, their relationship will be marked by deep empathy and consideration. Sexually, they will be very grateful, because there is an empathy towards each other's needs, with careful and intuitive timing on each one's part. This is a loving combination.
