4 Zodiac Signs Who Can Mix Business & Pleasure

There’s no getting around it: lots of people are drawn to the forbidden, sexy nature of the office romance. It’s one of the oldest and most popular tropes for a reason. However, what works in fantasy doesn’t always neatly translate in real life, and not everyone is uniquely equipped to handle the challenges that come along with working with a romantic partner.

The following rising signs are not only down for mixing business with pleasure—they’re actually more likely to successfully navigate such a relationship. It’s written in their cosmic blueprint.

Taurus.

With detail-oriented Virgo ruling your fifth house of romance and sensual Libra ruling your sixth house of work, it stands to reason that lines occasionally get blurred between you and your coworkers. What we hope to get out of our short-term flings isn’t always the same as what we desire for a long-term partnership, but with Scorpio ruling your seventh house, you find it easy to settle into the bounds of marriage and share your resources with your loved one. This doesn’t just apply to finances, though; you can lose yourself entirely in your partner, finding it natural to work with each other in a professional sense even if there are deep soul bonds tying you together regardless.

Cancer.

Intense Scorpio, which is associated with shared resources, rules your fifth house of pleasure, while Sagittarius rules your sixth house of colleagues. You are often in the right place at the right time when it comes to meeting romantic prospects, especially if your work takes you abroad or you are employed by an international team. In marriage, you are inclined to adopt the work ethic of your spouse, as Capricorn rules your seventh house. Even if you occasionally prefer a slower pace, you appreciate your spouse’s determination to provide for you. You might not even recognize your spouse in work mode, as they’re especially good at compartmentalization—but this doesn’t mean that their sappy, loving side isn’t just as real.

Virgo.

You take your pleasure seriously, with Capricorn ruling your fifth house of romance, and many of you are the perpetually single friend, preferring to put your career ahead of casual hookups. When you do meet someone you click with, though, it’s usually in a work-related setting—and with Aquarius ruling your sixth house of daily routine, you are willing to take an unconventional approach around the office and at home. You function in a sort of organized chaos. For those of you who are in more creative industries, settling down with someone who’s on your level is basically a requirement for a happy marriage, with dreamy Pisces ruling your seventh house. The ideal marriage for you is one of equals, both playing muse to the other.

Scorpio.

You’re attracted to artists of all kinds, with Pisces ruling your fifth house of romance, and confident risk-takers in the workplace will get your attention before anyone else, with Aries ruling your sixth house of the mundane daily grind. While the alluring musician or tortured poet might keep you in a toxic situationship, in marriage you’re determined to find a healthy balance between creative weirdness and comfortable stability, thanks to Taurus ruling your seventh house. Those who find this balance end up in blissful marriages built on shared creative passions, though you are more likely to marry someone who is happy to play the role of muse. In this sense, even if they have a day job, they are your biggest support system and the reason you are able to thrive in your career.
