The
zodiacal sign of Virgo commences on August 21st, but for seven days,
being overlapped by the "cusp" of the previous sign, it
does not come into full power until on or about August 28th. From
this date onwards it is in full strength until September 20th and
then for seven
days gradually loses its strength on account of being overlapped
by the "cusp" of the incoming sign "Libra".
As the sign of the virgin, Virgos search for purity through cleanliness,
good health, proper diet and exercise. They are sensitive, reserved,
self-conscious, critical and fastidious. As they are ruled by inconstant
Mercury, Virgos are prone to change whether it be through multiple
residences, jobs or points of view. They are conscientious
and methodical workers capable of functioning under any adversity
and also make excellent secretaries, organisers and editors. Virgos
can be very insecure and reserved, qualities which may be interpreted
as lack of warmth and good will. They are usually materialistic
in their views of life and analyse and reason everything from their
own way of thinking outwards. They are inclined to become wrapped
up in themselves and their own ideas and often become selfish in
the close pursuit of their aims. They are more capable of going
to extremes in good and evil. 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. They are
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. Because they are perfectionists, they are often dissatisfied
and too critical of themselves as well as others. With difficult
aspects, Virgos tend to have a pessimistic outlook on life spending
too much time analysing and worrying which may adversely affect
their health.
LOVE LIFE In love they
are the most difficult to understand. Their affectionate nature is
very intense but not of the emotional, demonstrative order, but once
their love is awakened they are extremely loyal but inclined to be
jealous.
MATERIAL SUCCESS
In matters of finance this is a favourable part of the year to be
born in. It gives good business ability, a careful frugal nature,
not easily imposed on by others. They succeed well in business but
more from their steady, industrious persistency than from evolving
ideas.
NEGATIVE TRAITS
Virgoes are notably careful and their excellence is in detailing.
Your blood would not splatter - death will be a quiet peaceful
slumber. The crimes they commit are meticulously planned and skillfully
executed.
