Virgo Profile
Virgos are the sixth sign of the zodiac. They have an extremely analytical mind, ready to minimize and organize, categorize and stick labels on everything to make sure everything is returned to its' correct place. Often feel motivated to work for a noble cause, which helps them forget their concerns about possible issues in their own lives. Their refined analytical skills make Virgos invaluable in difficult situations that require problem-solving and a sequential approach.
They are commonly known as the "perfectionist" of the zodiac, which means they will do everything in their power to do their best, and often push themselves beyond what is humanly possible, often causing themselves, and sometimes others, stress from their self-imposed idealistic standards. Their mind can be their greatest asset when put to work on vital projects, but can cause them anguish if they focus on minor issues and on what is lacking. One of the major lessons for the Virgo is to learn balance between their emotions and their strong intellect and powers of reasoning. If Virgos allow themselves to worry, they often develop tummy upsets and fragile nerves, so incorporating some daily playfulness and relaxation is vital for a Virgo, even more so than other star signs. Due to their highly practical nature, their creative expression is often channelled either in to writing or creating, or decorating, objects that are not only beautiful but useful. Virgo's also possess highly developed physical senses, which often makes them expert cooks and skilled lovers.
Virgos usually bring their work home or think about work even when they are supposed to be relaxing. Those Virgos who work from home may find it hard to sit still because there is "always something that needs to get done". Virgos are typically logical, hardworking, persistent and disciplined. Although, Virgo's are the sign of purity and "the Virgin", deep romantic involvements is one aspect of their lives that Virgos are anything but restrained, tending towards passion and exuberance. However, Virgos need to resist the temptation to direct and control their relationships at times. Usually ultraclean, the Virgos normally fastidious nature may be toned down if other influences in their astrological chart predominate.
Virgos are the sign star most likely to choose a partner of the same star sign. If they do not choose another Virgo as their partner, they are often found in the company of one of the other earth signs - Taurus or Capricorn; however there are always exceptions to this rule.
Virgos typically have exceptionally strong power of concentration and focus. When they have set their goals, Virgos will move any mountain in the way to achieve it. They are not angry by nature, but are not people to trifle with, because if you push them too far, too often, you are going to be dealing with a formidable opponent. Since Virgos are extremely cautious, they tend to take a while to get started on their greatest goals, but they are so well-planned that once they begin, Virgos are ready for just about anything.
Virgos are usually supremely capable, and able to handle most situations on their own if they have to, though normally long to be part of a couple. Though Virgos are typically extremely intelligent, they often do not recognize their own abilities and need those who know and love the Virgo, to point out to them, their fabulous qualities.
Straightforward and honest, Virgos are often popular with those who want the truth without the "sugar-coating".
Virgo is an Earth sign sharing its ruling planet of Mercury with the air sign - Gemini. Mercury is the planet of communication, revealing that Virgos (as well as Gemini's) possess a talent for expressing their thoughts, ideas, and feelings exceptionally well, through the written and spoken word.
