 Virgo
is the negative sign of Mercury, mutable earth,
the intestines of the Cosmic Man, a virgin. As
sign no. 6 (2 x 3), it shows the need for
balancing energy, particularly between body and
mind. Like their Gemini counterparts, under the
influence of Mercury, Virgo types possess good
intellects, command of the language and nervous
sensitivity.
They make good teachers and have a strong sense of the facts.
They also can project the healing ray of Mercury
and make good doctors, healers and can be good
at yoga (particularly Hatha yoga). They are more
physical than Geminis, like physical exercise
and may excel as athletes.
Their knowledge has a more practical or informational side to
it and they are often good at trivia. Their
knowledge is seldom theoretical. It is usually
tied to some form or practical manifestation.
They make for good craftsmen, draftsmen or
artists, as they have a strong sense of form,
line and detail. They may become actors, as they
can easily learn how to discipline their
expression and project their emotions.
Virgos are more method actors than charismatic types,
however. Owing to their sensitive and changeable
minds and nervous systems, they may become
neurotic. They often suffer from a nervous or
variable digestion and elimination. They are
usually the weakest physically of the signs and
can more likely come down with difficult to
treat disorders or chronic diseases,
particularly problems involving the nervous
system.
Their body-mind coordination may fail them. Sexually they
tend to be shy when young but are prone to
excessive sexual activity when older, though it
is seldom open or freely expressed. Virgos are
often fussy, discriminating and exacting about
details and like cleanliness and order. Their
discrimination sometimes has a spiritual
orientation and they can be good at philosophies
like Vedanta that are built on purity and
discrimination.
They are possessed of good and factual memories They are
helpful and service oriented. They are good
workers but can suffer from overwork or lack of
recognition in what they do. |
