To check it by degree: Mars at 10° Virgo makes the sextile with Jupiter anywhere from 4° to 16° of Cancer or Scorpio — the 60° angle give or take 6°. The grid goes by sign, but the sextile also forms across a sign line: Mars at 1° Virgo and Jupiter at 29° Libra are 58° apart, a semi-sextile by sign.
