Virgo Virgo: August 22 - September 21

The Sun's arrival in Virgo tells us that it's harvest time. Like a conscientious farmer examining the quality of the crop, Virgo people like to inspect and evaluate things to see how useful they are. The analytical power of Mercury, their ruler, gives Virgo the ability to pick out mistakes and point out flaws, but that's not all they want to do. Virgo people want to be of service to others. Yes, part of what they do is nit pick and nag, especially when they perceive a lack of precision or cleanliness. But even when it gets under our skin, that nagging often helps us to do our best.

Virgo definitely can suffer from not seeing the forest for the trees, but that characteristic is what makes them such terrific "detail people". If you ever want to give them a taste of their own medicine, inspect their homes or look inside their cars. You'll be surprised at how much you find to pick on! Some Virgo people get so fussy about being neat and clean that they give up on themselves - and make a huge mess out of their own belongings. They also love small animals, and often like having a cat or dog in their home. To see how much influence Virgo really has in your life, order a LifeQuest or an InnerChild report.

Virgo is an EARTH sign
Earth people take solid ideas and make them a reality. If they think a task has no practical use or purpose, they have a hard time understanding why anyone would waste time on it. Their slow and methodical approach to life makes them stable, and often quite successful.
Virgo people are MUTABLE
They're versatile and able to adapt easily to changing circumstances. They can always find more than one use for an idea or object, and they are exceptionally creative. Of course they take awhile to make up their minds, since they never fail to weigh all the variables that they need to factor into important decisions.
Zodiac Presence
The Vestal Virgin that inspires Virgo's work is a devoted servant. The idea of keeping the flame in the hearth burning brightly gives Virgo people their reputation for efficiency and productivity.
Graphic Symbol
The Glyph for Virgo is an abstraction of the Virgin (represented by the scripted letter M) holding a sheath of wheat. Virgo's main drive is to be productive, and Virgo people are happiest when they can see the direct results of their efforts.
Color
Forrest green - like the plants Virgos almost always have growing all around them. Some Virgo people like to mix the green with the browns and tans of the earth. If ever a Virgo becomes overwrought, they can calm themselves by going to a forest, a conservatory or the local flower store.
Gems
Emerald is the gem for Virgo, and our ancestors felt that it had healing powers, as do most of these health-conscious people.
Fragrances: Rosemary and Sage
Relieves the stress Virgos feel right after they've found a bunch of mistakes they have to fix!
Body Correspondence: The Small Intestine
Virgo people examine the information they receive, sift through it and then retain what they feel is most important. Virgos don't tolerate impurities (or dirt) very well, and you'll often hear them complain of digestive problems. If you want to make them feel better, put them around lots of trees or greenery, or feed them green vegetables. This helps to refresh their delicate constitutional conditions.
Number
The number Seven best relates to Virgo's main impulse - to analyze and to understand.
Tarot Image
The Hermit. This cloaked figure is responsible for bringing light and life to the world with the lamp he carries. Through their earthy way of using Mercury's mental energy, Virgo people shine this lamp of wisdom when they sort through information and select what is most useful.
Professions: Accountants, administrators, chemists, statisticians, hygienists, nutritionists; physicians and veterinarians.
Celebrities: Salma Hayek, Adam Sandler, Cameron Diaz and Jonathan Taylor Thomas.
Places: Egypt; Crete; Brazil; Croatia; Baghdad, Iraq; and Boston, Massachusetts.
