How these two meet
Virgo and Virgo: the function of saying that a thing is fine is unstaffed.
Nothing in this house is finished, and the word for that is not chaos, it is maintenance.
You both notice, you both improve, and the improving is not competitive, it is what a noticing does when it has hands. What neither of you has is anybody to say that the thing was already good.
Mercury is on a short leash, never more than 27.8 degrees from the Sun, and turns back three times a year to recross ground it has already crossed. Two of those means the same ground crossed six times a year, by two people, separately, without conferring.
So the standard rises quietly, and neither of you set it and neither of you can lower it. The function of saying that a thing is fine is unstaffed here, and neither of you has noticed the vacancy.
How much of this house is already correct?
For one of you, the work is saying out loud that something is finished, and then not touching it.
For the other, the work is believing them.
Mercury recrosses its own ground three times a year and there are two of them here, which is six passes over the same floor and no other body anywhere to call it done.
So who in this house is allowed to say that something is finished, and when did either of you last hear it said?
The same thirty degrees
Nought degrees apart, because it is the same thirty degrees of sky. Two people under one sign share an element, a modality and a ruling body, and the wheel offers nothing here to negotiate. That is the whole situation: no friction built in, and no counterweight either. Whatever this sign does well happens twice over, and whatever it looks away from, nobody in the room is built to notice.
The ruler
One sign, one ruler, and it is the restless one. Mercury turns retrograde 315 times a century, about three times a year, and spends 19.1 per cent of its life apparently going backwards; nothing else on this wheel comes close. It is also on a short leash, never more than 27.8 degrees from the Sun. Fast, tethered, and forever re-reading what it has already read.
When Is the Sun in Virgo?

A sign is still a general lens: it says nothing about where your Moon or your Venus actually fell. A synastry report reads your two real birth charts against each other, with the aspects that are genuinely there.
