Virgo and Scorpio in love
In love there's support and loyalty: one gives security, the other tenderness. It's one of the most solid combinations for building something long-term.
In friendship and work
In friendship and work, one brings stability and the other flexibility. It works if the fixed one tolerates change and the mutable one respects what was agreed.
Why they get along this way
Element — Fertility and containment. Earth gives Water a channel and Water softens Earth's firmness: one holds, the other nourishes.

Polarity. They share Yin polarity (inward, receptive energy): they go in the same direction.
Rulers. Virgo is ruled by Mercury (words and ideas); Scorpio, by Pluto and Mars (transformation; action and desire).
What each one brings
Virgo: attention to detail, analysis and organization.
Scorpio: intensity, transformation and depth.
Where they can clash
Virgo: perfectionism, high self-expectations and excessive criticism.
Scorpio: jealousy, control and revenge.
How to look after the bond
Use the ease to do things together: the chemistry of the sextile grows with shared projects, not on its own.
