Scores are calculated from sun-sign astrology alone: the angle between the two signs on the zodiac wheel, their elements and their modalities. A full birth chart includes the Moon, Venus, Mars and the houses, and can shift this picture considerably.
Virgo and Libra — the verdict
Neighbouring signs with different priorities: Virgo wants it correct, Libra wants it pleasant. Virgo says the useful thing bluntly; Libra says the smooth thing first. Each considers the other slightly dishonest — Virgo for lack of tact, Libra for lack of directness — and both have a point.
