Virgo and Capricorn: Personality Traits

As two earth signs, Virgo and Capricorn have some shared personality traits. Both are very practical and hard-working—if you’re friends with them, they’re the ones planning the group vacay down to the very last detail. Both tend to be perfectionists, accepting nothing less than the best from themselves or others. Capricorn tends to be a bit more direct and straightforward from Virgo, who can be a little more passive-aggressive with their criticism. Virgo is also known as one of the “signs of service,” dedicated to making others’ lives better, while Capricorn puts themself first—but does care deeply for their loved ones.

Virgo and Capricorn: Friendship Compatibility

Their shared earth sign sensibilities mean that Virgo and Capricorn are excellent friends. Either they’re the “work hard, play hard” type, or they simply work super hard—perhaps teaming up on launching a shared business as a side gig. To other signs, Virgo’s and Capricorn’s feedback can sometimes seem overly critical, but these two know that it comes from a good place. Besides, they welcome the opportunity to improve!

Virgo and Capricorn: Sexual Compatibility

Earth signs are notoriously ~sensual~, which yes, def applies to life in the bedroom. Virgo and Capricorn can spend all day in bed together, exploring each other’s bods. They both have a secret (or not-so-secret) kinky side. Hey, they have to let out all their stress somehow! In bed, Virgo is more of a people-pleaser while Capricorn is all to happy to take the lead. Sex is one area where these two signs have a strong connection.

Virgo and Capricorn: Relationship Compatibility

Virgo and Capricorn can def thrive in a relationship. They have similar values, goals, and approaches to life. Their work ethics are like nobody else’s in the zodiac, and together, these two are a total power couple. However, one area that these two should keep an eye on is ROMANCE. Both Virgo and Cap are very practical, and it’s easy for them to fall into the day-to-day routine of work, dishes, laundry, Netflix, sex, sleep, repeat without taking time for non-practical indulgences like flowers, weekend getaways, and fancy dinners. My advice for Virgo/Cap couples: Make sure you take time for fun, too! And go ahead and set a weekly or monthly date night if spontaneity gives you the ick.

Virgo and Capricorn: Marriage Compatibility

Everything that makes Virgo and Capricorn have a successful relationship also applies to a marriage or another long-term commitment. In a marriage, these two should also keep in mind that Capricorn is more direct than Virgo. Cap should take care not to steamroll Virgo’s opinions, and Virgo should make sure they’re speaking up about their opinions rather than expecting Capricorn to read their mind.
