VirgoVirgo: Divinatory Meaning

Virgo is the only zodiacal sign represented by a female. She is gathering in wheat for the winter, taking care of one’s needs. These natives collect and digest facts. The virgin denotes purity as Virgos try to reach perfection.

Virgo is a sign of work, action and service. More than any other sign except Pisces, Virgo comes to this world to serve society, in medicine, technology, social service, and even hard labor. They have an innate ability to put things together, to connect, analyze, and keep track of details. This special kind of intelligence makes them great accountants, surgeons, inspectors, and designers. Their forte is any job that requires meticulousness and precision, in short – perfection.

Their minds need the challenge of practical problems to be solved rather than a routine. 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. They 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. 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. Females may find a career in fashion, for they have a flair for dress, in which they can be trend setters.

Virgo has trouble managing projects due to their expert detail orientation. They tend to lose sight of the entire picture and often cannot keep the details from fitting together (Can’t see the forest for the trees). 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.The Virgo is the perfect assistant for any manager, for they have the ability to manifest any project to the details with the necessary precision.

Virgo’s greatest fault is in being too critical. Their analytical mind can degerate into fault-finding, criticism, and irritability. It easier to criticize and see what is wrong with others, but much harder to do criticize oneself, and this is the real lesson Virgos should learn. Fastidious reticence and modesty become old-maidishness and persnicketiness; balanced criticism becomes carping and nagging; and concern for detail becomes overspecialization. Virgoans 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.

They have a deep-seated feeling of inadequacy. When they learn to love, honor and accept the other person as they are without criticism, judgment or trying to change them to their own standards. There is a sweetmess and lack of aggressiveness in these people which endears them to everyone. They are one of the hardest workers of the Zodiac. Their jittery nerves can cause many digestive ailments, so diet is important. The lesson and correction of Virgo is to understand that what seems faulty and wrong with others is a reflection of what is not good enough with them! That is the reason the work of a Virgo is to accept any person as he is, be patient and tolerant, and to learn to love with no reason.

Medically Speaking

Virgo rules the intestines, liver, pancreas, gall bladder, lower plexus, upper bowel. In general, it rules the assimilative system of the body. Virgos tend to worry and this makes them vulnerable to stomach and bowel troubles, including colic and ulcers. Males may have trouble with their sexual organs. Both sexes are strongly interested in health 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.
