So last week I decided to dig into this whole Virgo and Sagittarius 2023 love compatibility thing myself. Honestly? Curiosity got the better of me after seeing so many folks online freaking out about whether these two signs can make it work this year. Figured I’d track a real couple instead of just reading starry-eyed predictions.
Getting Started With My Little Experiment
First thing Monday morning, I pulled out my worn notebook – yeah, I still use paper sometimes – and circled two friends of mine, Sarah (total Virgo, born September 5th) and Mark (hardcore Sagittarius, December 12th). They’ve been together like three years now. Shot ’em both a text asking if I could basically stalk their relationship vibes all year long. Thankfully, they laughed and said “sure, why not?”.
My plan was kinda simple:
- Check in monthly: Quick coffee chats or texts about how things were rolling.
- Note the big fights or happy moments they were cool sharing.
- Compare the astro weather – those planetary transits everyone yaps about – to their actual moods.
The Actual Tracking Process
Started this back in January. Right off the bat, Mercury Retrograde hit, and oh boy. Sarah got super stressed about planning a trip, nitpicking every tiny detail. Mark? Just wanted to “wing it” and trust it’d work out. Saw some serious eye-rolling action. Wrote down “Virgo stress vs. Sag chaos” on my first page.
Come spring, Jupiter slid into Aries. Mark suddenly got obsessed with starting his own Etsy shop for hiking gear – classic Sag chasing freedom. Sarah was supportive… mostly. But you could tell she was low-key sweating over finances. My notes screamed: “Sag’s big dream leaves Virgo anxious.”
Then summer rolled around. Saturn parked in Pisces, and honestly? Things chilled out weirdly. Less arguing. More compromise. Mark actually scheduled stuff in advance. Sarah relaxed a bit about perfect plans. Felt like they found a groove. Scribbled “Truce?!” with three question marks.
Where Things Got Real Messy
Early fall hit me with Venus Retrograde. And man, that lived up to the hype. Old issues crawled out of nowhere. Sarah brought up Mark’s commitment jitters from years ago. Mark mentioned how Sarah’s criticisms made him feel like crap back when he lost his job. Tempers flared. Serious talks happened. Almost spilled my coffee taking frantic notes during one tearful coffee meetup.
My Raw Conclusion
So, did their Virgo-Sag pairing survive 2023? Honestly? Barely. They’re still together as of right now. But here’s the kicker from my little experiment:
- Astrology didn’t break them; it just spotlighted their natural clashes. That push-pull? Grounded Virgo VS flighty Sag? Real AF.
- 2023’s weird energy shifts cranked those differences up to eleven sometimes, especially when planets went retrograde.
- They didn’t magically “align” because some guide said they should. They fought hard, cried, talked it out ugly, and chose to stay. More work than magic.
Kept notes for months thinking I’d find some cosmic “secret.” Nope. Just two people grinding through real messy, frustrating love. Would they do all this again? Hell if I know. But my notebook? That baby’s getting closed.
