Pisces - those born between February 19 and March 20 are also a good match for a Virgo. Both signs are opposite each other in the zodiac, so they can make up for qualities the other lacks.

Saggitarius - these two-star signs are not generally viewed as a strong match due to their different lifestyles. Virgos are much more introverted and thrive on routine, while a Sagittarius lives for risk and adventure.
