I found this info in a go to horoscope site and its pretty interesting because it is right on...


The Zodiacal Sign of Virgo commences on August 21st, but for seven days it does not come into its full power until on or about August 29th. From this date onwards it is in full strength until September 20th, and is then for seven days gradually losing its strength on account of becoming overlapped by the "cusp" of the incoming sign - Libra.

The emblem of Virgo, a virgin holding sheaves of wheat in her hands symbolizes wisdom, garnered in the fields of experience. Like the true virgin, most Virgos are shy and, like a virgin tend to wait to give herself to the perfect lover, Virgo is also idealistic.

With a Mercury as the ruling planet, people born under this sign are quick thinking and observant. They define pure modesty; they can't bear to be taken care of, they prefer to take care of others.

People who were born in this period are as a rule generally successful in life. They have keen, good intellects, are very discriminating about those with whom they associate, and in all business matters they have good judgment, and are not easily imposed upon or deceived.

They are usually materialistic in their views of life, and analyze and reason everything from their own way of thinking outwards. These people are and attracted to only that knowledge that can be applied usefully. They will happily share this information with anyone, if it confirms their own usefulness in the world, and brings them eagerly out of there shells.

These people can become good literary critics, being quick to see the weak points. They are extremely fond of harmony in their surroundings, have excellent taste about their house and dress, and always want things in good taste, and elegant.

Virgos are usually fastidious about their personal appearance, have a great respect for rank and position, and are great supporters of the law and the law's decisions. They usually develop this skill to improve themselves and their surroundings as they place great pride in tangible achievements. These people may spend part of their lives heading off on detours and then suddenly emerge as someone with a remarkable sense of direction. They can adjust easily to change once they find a way of fitting the new situation into their routine.

They are inclined to become wrapped up in themselves and their own ideas, and often become selfish in the close pursuit of their aims.

These people are more capable of going to extremes in good and evil than any other type.

If they develop a love for money they will stick at nothing to acquire it, and this type is often considered cunning and crafty at the expense of others.

In love they are the most difficult to understand, the very best and the very worst of men and women being born in this part of the year. To people born under this sign love is not dramatic, emotional, or sentimental. Love for them is devotion and will include love of family, friends, and those less fortunate than he or she. There is no pretense involved in how they act or what they say. Marriage is a major commitment; they value their union as both a love relationship and a working partnership. A warm relationship brings out the best in anyone born under this sign because basically they are kind, devoted and very loyal.

Disappointment, however, can harden them into a cynic and a skeptic. Virgos consequently become quite critical with themselves as well as with circumstances, due to the effect of such disappointments on a sensitive and discriminating nature.

Virgo - The Sign of the Harvest Goddess
The people who were born under the sign of Virgo have the strongly advanced analytical mind and all the time trying to glue labels on everything they see. They have sharp feelings of taste, time, hearing and sense of smell. The symbol of this sign is Virgo. It does not mean, that they are pure and sinless . It means that heir amazing abilities to observe allow them to see all the human lacks. Usually they do not like everything that they see, and they withdraw like Virgo.

Friends
People born under this sign have difficulty making friends. They won't make the first step until they feel absolutely comfortable with this people. Yet when they do make the effort, these people are capable of achieving extraordinary things. They can find their most lasting friendships with those born in their own Sign, also from April 20 to May 20-27.

Health
In health, as a rule, they are less liable to diseases than persons born in any other part of the year, yet the strange thing about them is that they are always imagining themselves to have every illness that they may happen to read about. They are very refined in their tastes as far as food is concerned, and must have things nicely put before them or they will lose their appetites. Health-conscious Virgo makes an effort to stay physically fit and they don't mind repetitive exercise routines, if they can see achievable outcomes. You enjoy tennis, racquetball, swimming, sailing, fishing, and biking, even though athletically they are not overly competitive. They are extremely sensitive to their surroundings; the least disharmony or annoyance affects their nervous system and upsets their digestive organs. These people have a tendency to have chest trouble, and to suffer from neuritis in the shoulder and arms. If badly mated, or living under inharmonious marriage conditions, they easily fall into ill health or get extremely despondent. They should never drink alcohol, as it seems to be more a poison to them than to any ether class.

Color
Their most suitable colors are all very pale shades and silvery, shimmering materials.

Stones
The birth stones, for this period are emeralds, diamonds and pearls.

Children often find Virgo mums very delightful and funny. Until they misbehave.

Virgos in general tend to worry too much, and need to guard against getting bogged down by details.

There is sometimes a tendency to over-analyze. It might be counterbalanced by tuning in to the emotional side.

I'm a Virgo (born on August 29.. strange lol). And I laughed as I read that because of how accurate it is. My favorite part was the quote that said "the strange thing about them is that they are always imagining themselves to have every illness that they may happen to read about." I have never read something so true!!! lol Also with eing picky about food. My stepdad always makes fun of me because of the things I pick out of my food.

I like reading that Virgo's have a hard time making friends. Because that's 100% true with me. Now I don't feel so worthless!


Thanks for posting this!! It was very entertaining.
Love and light!
Beth

Oh, do tell, Beth... what sorts of things do you pick out???????

This is helping me understand my Virgo guy's quirks!

A great deal of that was true for me...

My birthday is September 6th

I don't like clutter. My house is never perfectly clean, but I really struggle when too many things are out of place. It irritates me and affects my mood... because I don't like feeling like my home is chaotic. When I do clean, I like to clean thoroughly, scrubbing away any possible bacteria there might be. I wash my hands far too much... public restrooms scare me.

And yes, I do get upset when I am uncomfortable with my surroundings. My stomache gets all tied up in knots.

One of my favorite hobbies is research and study of anything that catches my interest.. I will study thoroughly until all possibilities are exhausted or until I am satisfied, before I move on.

One of my favorite colors is silver.

I didn't read all of that but reading this comment:

"the strange thing about them is that they are always imagining themselves to have every illness that they may happen to read about.""

I imagine myself having an illness but I don't believe I actually have it.

Otherwise it seemed quite accurate. My birthday's on September 11.

another virgo here , mine was yesterday the 27th , new cycle for me turned 37 so an ending and a beginning , and really feeling it , like starbursts , part of the process

Hi bluestflame,

I would like to hear more about the cycles you refer to, since my birthday is coming up soon. I will be 31. Could you tell me more?

it's where astrology meets numerology , these being one key to a greater understanding of what's "behind the scenes"

my age, 37 , if you add 3 and 7 you get 10 , symbolically an ending and a beginning

Shaun

Hi Shaun,

I understand now. That's interesting. My mother has also been interested in numerology lately, and has spoken with me about it some. She showed me a book she's been reading, and I read the description in the book for my birthday. I do have to say, it was fairly accurate in a lot of ways. In some ways not, like in the physical description for example. I noticed the book was off on physical description most of the time, not just for me, but also for my mother and others. But still, it was an interesting read, and worth some further study.




Edit: P.S. Starbursts are fun.
