Below is an In-depth Analysis Of
This Star Sign.
|
|
Virgo is the only zodiacal sign represented by a
female. It is sometimes thought of as a
potentially creative girl, delicately lovely;
sometimes as a somewhat older woman, intelligent
but rather pedantic and spinsterish. The latter
impression is sometimes confirmed by the Virgoan
preciseness, refinement, fastidious love of
cleanliness, hygiene and good order,
conventionality and aristocratic attitude of
reserve. They are usually observant, shrewd,
critically inclined, judicious, patient,
practical supporters of the status quo,
and tend toward conservatism in all departments
of life.
On
the surface Virgos are emotionally cold, and
sometimes this goes deeper, for their habit of
suppressing their natural kindness may in the
end cause it to atrophy, with the result that
they shrink from committing themselves to
friendship, make few relationships, and those
they do make they are careful to keep
superficial. But the outward lack of feeling
may, in some individuals born under Virgo,
conceal too much emotion, to which they are
afraid of giving way because they do not trust
others, nor do they have confidence in
themselves and their judgments.
This is because they are conscious of certain
shortcomings in themselves of worldliness, of
practicality, of sophistication and of
outgoingness. So they bring the art of self
concealment to a high pitch, hiding their
apprehensiveness about themselves and their
often considerable sympathy with other people
under a mantle of matter-of-factness and
undemonstrative, quiet reserve. They are still
waters that run deep. Yet in their unassuming,
outwardly cheerful and agreeable fashion, they
can be sensible, discreet, well spoken, wise and
witty, with a good understanding of other
people's problems which they can tackle with a
practicality not always evident in their own
personal relationships.
Both sexes have considerable charm and dignity,
which make some male Virgos appear effeminate
when they are not. In marriage they can be
genuinely affectionate, making good spouses and
parents, but their love making is a perfection
of technique rather than the expression of
desire, and they must be careful not to mate
with a partner whose sex drive requires a
passion they cannot match.
Virgos are intellectually enquiring, methodical and logical,
studious and teachable. They combine mental ingenuity with the
ability to produce a clear analysis of the most complicated
problems. They have an excellent eye for detail but they may be so
meticulous that they neglect larger issues. Also, although they are
realists, they may slow down projects by being too exact.
They are practical with their hands, good
technicians and have genuine inventive talents,
Thoroughness, hard work and conscientiousness
are their hallmarks, and they are such
perfectionists that, if things go wrong, they
are easily discouraged. Because of the Virgo ability
to see every angle of a many-sided question,
they are unhappy with abstract theorizing.
Appreciating the many different points of view
as they do, they find philosophical concepts
difficult, and they vacillate and have no
confidence in any conclusions at which they
arrive.
With these qualities, Virgos are better as
subordinates than leaders. Responsibility irks
them and they often lack the breadth of
strategic vision that a leader needs. Virgos
are essentially tacticians, admirable in the
attainment of limited objectives. Their self
distrust is something they project on to other
people and tends to make them exacting
employers, though in the demands they make on
those under them they temper this attitude with
justice.
They have potential abilities in the arts,
sciences and languages. Language especially they
use correctly, clearly, consciously and
formally, as grammarians and etymologists rather
than for literary interests, yet they are likely
to have a good memory for apt quotations.
Although they are well suited for careers in
machine drawing, surveying and similar
occupations, they are better fitted for a job in
a library or office than a workshop.
Their minds are such that they need the stimulus
of practical problems to be solved rather than
the mere routine or working to set
specifications that need no thought. They are
careful with money and their interest in
statistics makes them excellent bookkeepers and
accountants. They also make good editors,
physicists and analytical chemists. They may
also find success as welfare workers,
ministering to those less fortunate than
themselves.
Virgos can be doctors, nurses, psychologists, teachers, confidential
secretaries, technologists, inspectors, musicians, critics, public
speakers and writers especially of reference works such as
dictionaries and encyclopedias. Both Virgo sexes have a deep
interest in history, a feature recognized by astrological
authorities for at least two hundred years. If they go in for a
business career their shrewdness and analytical ingenuity could
tempt them into dishonesty, though they usually have enough moral
sense to resist temptation.
Female Virgos may find a career in fashion,
for they have a flair for dress, in which they
can be trend setters. In any profession they
choose the natives of this sign readily
assimilate new ideas, but always with caution,
conserving what they consider worth keeping from
the past. They love country life but are
unlikely to make good farmers, unless they can
contrive to carry out their work without
outraging their sense of hygiene and
cleanliness.
Their faults, as is usual with all zodiacal
types, are the extremes of their virtues.
Fastidious reticence and modesty become old-maidishness
and persnicketiness; balanced criticism becomes
carping and nagging; and concern for detail
becomes overspecialization. Virgos are liable
to indecision in wider issues and this can
become chronic, turning molehills of minor
difficulties into Himalayas of crisis. Their
prudence can become guile and their carefulness,
turned in on themselves, can produce worriers
and hypochondriacs.
Possible Health Concerns for Virgo...
Virgo is said to govern the hands, abdomen,
intestines, spleen and central nervous system.
Illnesses to which its natives are prone include
catarrh, cold, coughs, pleurisies, pneumonia and
nervous instabilities. Their natures make them
inclined to worry and this makes them vulnerable
to stomach and bowel troubles, including colic
and ulcers.
Male Virgos may have trouble with their sexual
organs. Both sexes are strongly interested in
drugs and esoteric cuisine and as their delicate
stomachs require them to be careful about their
diet, it is essential that they treat their
fascination with exotic food with extreme care.

Meticulous and reliable, Practical and diligent,

PROBLEMS THAT MAY ARISE FOR VIRGOS, AND THEIR SOLUTIONS...
|
|
As
with all sun signs, we all have unique traits to
our personalities. When these traits are
suppressed, or unrealized, problems will arise.
However, with astrology we can examine the
problem and assess the proper solution based on
the sun sign characteristics. As a Virgo you may
see things below that really strike home. Try
the solution, you most likely will be amazed at
the results. If you find yourself on the
receiving end of the negatives below, it is
because you are failing to express the positive.
Problem:
Finding yourself frequently alone and unable to
keep friends for more than a few weeks.
Solution:
Try not to be argumentative over much and the
constant criticism that Virgos give to their
companions are not endearing qualities to have.
Try to live and let live, they will love you for
it.
Problem:
People tend to avoid making close contact with
you.
Solution:
Being too preoccupied with health and making it
a continual topic of conversation. Try to keep
your tips and suggestions about health and
health products to yourself unless asked for
them.
Problem:
Dissatisfied with the way your life is turning
out; no excitement or change to speak of.
Solution:
You may be restricting yourself by reducing your
life to a set of theories and pigeon-holes. Try
to express the positive by first asking
yourself, Who or what are you serving; are you
devoted or are you enslaved. Answer those
questions and then start a new path that
includes your true worth.
Problem:
You may feel that your life and your climb to
success is a steep hill that you may never be
able to scale.
Solution:
Try expressing the positive traits of your
finely tuned analytical reasoning, employing the
light touch with employees and co-workers, while
expressing genuine concern for all; You will
find those mountains turning into hills that you
run right over.
