What’s a fish out of water and a maiden got to do with each other? Turns out a whole lot, as a Pisces and Virgo can have a very fulfilling relationship together — if they get past their differences. For the two signs to get along, they’re going to have to know more about each other first.
What Are the Positive and Negative Traits of a Pisces?
No sign is without its claims to fame and concurrent pitfalls. Let’s look at what makes a Pisces tick.
Positive
Pisces are one of the kindest, most compassionate signs on the zodiac. They’re soft people know can read people instantly, so they’ll know how to cheer someone up or get someone to calm down after a stressful day.
They can sympathize with another person easily, and care about the broader social, environmental, or political problems happening on this planet.
Pisces are also creative and imaginative people who can think abstractly about an issue and come up with hare-brained (but ingenious!) solutions. They’re intuitive too, so they use their gut to “feel” out an answer rather than spend time coming up with the rational response.
A Pisces is also selfless, constantly helping out others when someone needs assistance. They’re also sensitive people as well. Issues in the world affect them deeply, and they often take both criticism and praises to heart.
Negative
While Pisces are imaginative and creative people, they tend to get too caught up in their head. When they feel upset or hurt, they might choose to hone themselves into one particular escapist avenue to avoid dealing with their problems. It’s not uncommon to see a Pisces go on a Netflix binge, read several books, or go out for a road trip for this reason.
Pisces might feel more slighted than other signs because of their lofty, idealistic expectations of the world. A Pisces tends to assume that the best will work out for them, their family, and their country. However, when things don’t go their way, their sensitivity makes them take the slight personally. Pisces are prone to depression as a result of their idealism.
Their pessimism may drain others around them, since not everyone will want to hear about how the Pisces was disappointed by some event yet again. A Pisces can be overly sensitive to negative feedback at times, further worsening their mood when they’ve gone into a funk.
What Are the Positive and Negative Traits of a Virgo?
As for the Virgo…
Positive
The smartest person in your life is probably a Virgo. They’re known for their intelligence sometimes to a quirky degree. Their niche interests in subjects cause them to spend hours in the library getting smarter in that one field.
Virgos know how to apply their vast intelligence, though. They’re practical people who will be able to fix minor problems around the house, with your car, financially, or any other domain you might have trouble.
A Virgo uses their analytical skills to their advantage. They’re rational problem solvers, often taking in all the possible facts and weighing their options carefully before making a decision. It’s not uncommon to see a Virgo make a pro and con list for everything.
You can rely on a Virgo to fix all the problems around you. Virgos are loyal friends who always get the job done right the first time. They’re not the type of person to let their mood or a bad day affect their performance, since they herald their highly rational nature.
A Virgo won’t brag to you about their awesome qualities, though, since they’re modest people by nature. In addition to being perfectionists, rational, and dependable, their humbleness is probably one of their most charming qualities.
Negative
While they’re charming in their problem-solving skills and ability to get stuff done, Virgos can be over critical in how they view the world or other people. You won’t be able to get through a movie without the Virgo pointing out all the plot hole, mistakes, and things that don’t make sense. The Virgo’s over critical nature can translate to a nagging partner if the Virgo doesn’t check themselves.
Virgos will also be agitated with their partner if they feel there are unresolved issues that haven’t been met. Virgos are fixers, so they’ll be fussy and stubborn until they think all unspoken problems are put on the table and addressed. It’s a positive quality, but can be annoying to deal with as a partner.
Combined with their patient nature, Virgos might take an obscenely long time to get something done. They’re perfectionists who want to make sure everything is perfect before they can walk away. A Virgo can be harsh in communication, then, if they think something is still wrong and needs to be fixed.
Virgos can be traditional in their worldviews and shun modern ideas. They operate under the phrase “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it,” so if their perception of the world serves them fine, they’ll see no reason to change — even though you might have problems with their ideology.
Virgos are known for their judgmentalism. They apply their critical nature to people they’ve never met, which can hinder meeting new people. Virgos tend to have the same kind of friend or partner who fits into their narrow idea of what a friend or partner “should” be like.
How Can a Pisces and Virgo Talk to Each Other?
The Pisces’s idealism will cause them to have expectations for their partner that their partner might not know about. Then the Pisces will feel disappointed in a way that won’t make sense to a Virgo.
The Virgo will hate an underlying issue that hasn’t been resolved. But the Pisces’ pessimism can cause them to clam up and not want to talk to the Virgo about what bothered them. The Pisces’ inability to speak about issues can lead to an accumulation of minor issues that culminate into one big blowout, potentially destroying the relationship.
If they can get over each other’s’ stubbornness, a Pisces and Virgo complement each other well in conversation. They’re usually interested in the same artistic, musical, or literary realms and can talk for hours on cerebral, abstract ideas.
A Pisces and Virgo can navigate speaking to each other through finding common ground, recognizing when they’re pulling away from a conversation, and being self-aware enough to know when their sign is getting the better of them.
When a Virgo and Pisces know how to navigate each other’s sign, the gates to communication will open up.
Can a Virgo and Pisces Trust Each other?
Both a Pisces and Virgo hate when another person tells a lie, so they’ll both enjoy each other’s’ radical honesty.
Through honesty, each signs’ caring and generous nature can come out. When a Virgo respects another person, their reliability shines through, since they know the other person is worthy of the Virgo’s continued support.
The Pisces’ sympathetic nature will appeal to the judgmental Virgo, since a Virgo may have a hard time empathizing with another person’s living situation or life philosophy.
Through their relationship, a Virgo will learn to be softer, and a Pisces will learn to curb their empathy with other people, since the Pisces has an issue of being too trusting and getting hurt because of it.
Whether in a romantic, platonic, or sexual relationship, the Pisces and Virgo temperaments will balance each other well, leading to a strong trust bond between them.
What’s the Physical Intimacy Like Between a Pisces and Virgo?
Both a Pisces and Virgo will be shy when it comes to sex. They might fall into a rut where both parties want to have sex, but neither wants to make the first move. The Pisces will be too in their head, and the Virgo will want to wait for the perfect movie moment that might never come.
Once sex is initiated, the Virgo’s judgmental nature often turns inward when it comes to sex. The Virgo might feel they’re not doing enough to please their partner. The Pisces can fall into the same trap, but be too attentive to their partner’s needs without satisfying their own.
A Pisces and Virgo will want a strong mental and emotional connection before making things physical. Neither party can have sex when they feel there is a bigger issue looming over them, such as an unresolved quarrel that happened perhaps a day or even week ago. For the Virgo especially, sex must be a result of a perfectly open, calm relationship.
The Virgo rarely likes to have sex “like rabbits” or other types of animals, as they don’t like losing control of themselves in such a way. The Pisces, however, will consider such raw expression of carnal desire a fact of humanity — and a deeply attractive one at that.
When it comes to sex, a Virgo will have to learn how to stop thinking with their head and think with their body. A Pisces will have to learn how to ask for what they want, as well as trustfully handing the Virgo once they’ve put themselves in a vulnerable state like that.
What Does the Pisces and Virgo Compatibility Look Like in a Family?
A Pisces and Virgos both have laid-back personalities, so they’ll be understanding parents for their children. They’re both mature too and in tune with themselves, and instill those qualities into their kids as well.
A Pisces and Virgo can live happily together, overcoming each other’s flaws with communication, patience, and understanding of each other’s’ sign.
