Character of Virgo (August 23

The sign of the Virgin accompanies us, with the sweetness of the end of summer, at the gates of autumn. It is therefore a “mutable” sign because it is constrained to mutation and seasonal changes. And if the preceding sign, Leo, behaves a bit like the “cicada” in La Fontaine’s fable, our Virgin feels obliged to assume a more “ant” attitude. She knows that in autumn and winter, the earth hardly produces any more fruit and so she makes stocks and reserves. You have to be pretty organized to be able to do this and every little detail counts. The characteristics of Virgo are extreme rigor, rationality, precision, attentiveness and reliability. His planet is, unsurprisingly, Mercury which is related to the head and logic. Mercurial intelligence is here connected to the Virgo element, Earth, and thus takes on a very practical connotation.

The Virgin, sign of labor

Another trait of her character, moreover, is the intrinsic desire to be at the service of others: the Virgin needs to know that her action is useful. But not only. She knows very well that life is a succession of small and seemingly insignificant daily rituals (sleep a certain number of hours, eat a balanced diet, wash, have a healthy lifestyle to stay healthy, etc. ), for this it is said to be the sign of hard work, daily life, health and purification.

Sign n° 6 of the zodiac wheel, Virgo also gives the color of the House 6 (the houses in astrology are the different sectors of existence): daily life, work and health.

Patience and precision in carrying out tasks could make Virgos excellent collaborators. The problem is their level of requirement: they aim for perfection but since perfection is a rare commodity if not inaccessible, the natives of Virgo are always dissatisfied, first of all by themselves but naturally also by others.

According to the qualities that I have just described to you, one can easily imagine that, who was born under this sign or who possesses in Virgo important values ​​such as the ascendant or the Moon, could excel in the health professions or who require care. They are also outstanding organizers, super analysts and could make “criticism” their job (cinema, literature, cooking, etc.). Personally, I believe that writing is also linked to this sign. Perhaps because the choice of a word is not a trivial detail…

Virgo’s motto? “I analyze, I preserve, I rationalize, I organize and I sort.”

Qualities : Accuracy, intelligence, analysis, critical sense, patience, devotion, ability to establish a diagnosis, cleanliness, attention to health, organization, selectivity, altruism, reliability.

Defaults : dissatisfaction, finicky, picky, pedantic, small arm, greed, judgment, excessive caution.

Virgo’s Friends : Excellent understanding with Capricorn, but disputes can arise when it comes to the excessive ambition of the latter, which does not go well with Virgo’s fear of risk. She likes Taurus when he is not too lazy. With Cancer she shares the love for the house and for Scorpio, she adores its depth and its tenacity but could flee “its too troubled waters”. The scattering and disorder of Gemini can drive her to despair. She can’t stand the lack of anchorage of Sagittarius when he is too spiritual and philosophical and also hates the waste that Sagittarius can show even if for the latter it is a question of “generosity”. On this subject she also has trouble with the universality and the lack of limits of Pisces (not selective enough for her taste) even if she admires the spirit of sacrifice. The genius of Aquarius could take advantage of the logic of Virgo. The common ground with Libra is their social selectivity.

The characteristics of Virgo

According to the oldest astrological traditions, each sign corresponds to a precise and specific anatomy. For Virgo, it is the intestine, an organ that sorts waste and ensures a good nutritional balance. In general this sign governs the abdomen. Because of Mercury’s rule, the nervous system is also one of its sensitive points and Virgo can easily suffer from psychosomatic illnesses. Virgo is undoubtedly the most hypochondriac of all the signs.

Lithotherapy

Among the lucky stones of the Virgin we find the Sapphire, stone of truth and purity. But Rose Quartz, which stimulates love, creativity and self-confidence is also indicated. Carnelian, which wards off negative thoughts, could help Virgos be more courageous.

Numerology

Virgo is the sixth sign of the zodiac and therefore 6, which expresses love and above all care for others, could well be its number. Personally, I associate this sign with the 4, linked to earth and solidity.

For the Tarot of Marseilles, there is the High Priestess, card n°2, who before speaking studies her ledger and is cautious. And then the Arcanum n° 19, the Judgment because of the critical attitude of the sign.
