I'm not going to say that sexual compatibility is the most important part of a relationship, but for some couples, it can be very important. It's also something that you probably won't even realize is missing until you give it the old college try. But what if you didn't have to go all the way to know if your odds of connecting sexually were high? Consider astrological compatibility. When it comes to the zodiac sign Virgo, infamous for its pickiness, sexual compatibility is key. Knowing the zodiac signs least sexually compatible with Virgo, and why each of these pairings struggle, can be helpful in making your relationship with a Virgo really thrive.

While astrology is not destiny, it can offer you some insight into what potential issues you and your partner might face. In some cases, and depending on the people themselves, the disconnect might be too wide and the compatibility might just not be there. But sometimes, if the chemistry is right in all the ways that matter, some bedroom stumbling blocks can be overcome, but only if you know what the issue is.

To understand why Virgo sometimes has trouble connecting with other signs in the bedroom, it's important to understand what it is that they need. Virgo is an earth sign that takes a very grounded view to everything, including sex. As a result, they need security and comfort to feel safe fully unleashing their sexual side. This is also a shy and conservative sign that will shut down when they feel pressured, so they need a sign who is both understanding and patient. The good news is, Virgo is worth the wait. With all that in mind, here are the signs that Virgo will likely have the hardest time connecting with sexually.

Virgo and Gemini are a true meeting of the minds. Both signs share the ruling planet Mercury, which is associated with communication, so they are able to mentally connect and spar verbally in a way that they rarely can with other signs. They make for great friends and business collaborators, but take this connection into the bedroom and there's likely to be some difficulty. Gemini is a sexual extrovert who has few boundaries, as they're driven by curiosity. Virgo is a bit more conservative and slow to open up sexually. That's why these two are much more likely to talk about all the ways they want to improve their sex lives, including what they want, need, and are interested in trying, than they are to actually, you know, do any of it.

Virgo & Leo

Leo and Virgo have a lot in common, in particular, their loyalty to the people they care about. Both signs are ride or die for their loved ones, and this shared value can make them appealing to one another. When it comes to sex, however, these two can face a real struggle for which partner’s needs should be the priority. Virgo desires emotional security in order to be comfortable expressing themselves fully in the bedroom, whereas Leo just wants to be appreciated and admired. To Virgo, that can feel selfish and be a turn off, and for Leo, it can come across as cold and judgmental. Not exactly a recipe for passion.

Virgo & Libra

Libra is an air sign ruled by Venus, which means they're all about following their emotions and desires. Virgo, on the other hand, is an earth sign ruled by Mercury, so they're influenced by intellect and careful analysis and discussion. As you can imagine, this can create serious friction when it comes to the bedroom, and not the good kind. Virgo is deliberate and slow to open up, and that's something Libra just doesn’t understand. To Libra, if it feels right, you can trust your instincts that it is right. Virgo needs some time to analyze the data, so they end up feeling rushed and pressured by Libra, and Libra feels, honestly, a little offended by Virgo. That’s not a dynamic that typically leads to a lot of passion.

Virgo & Aquarius

Both Virgo and Aquarius are highly intellectual signs with big hearts. You might think this makes them a perfect pair, where each partner is able to “get” how the other views romance, but in the case of Virgo and Aquarius, it can be too much of a good thing. Each sign needs a balancing force that will draw out their sensual side, so if both of them sit around, waiting for this to happen, they often end up drifting into the friend zone. While both signs are more than capable of great passion, they just don't tend to bring that out in each other.

If you happen to be in one of these combinations of star signs in your relationship, don't panic. While the stars can offer some guidance, they are not a guarantee. On the bright side, they can actually offer a roadmap as to how to overcome the common struggles these pairings face. Oftentimes, by just identifying the disconnect, you can start to overcome it together.
