Virgo, the sixth sign represents the end of a cycle with the harvest and management of crops. It represents the waning of the summer sun and how nature has become dry and barren and need of the chance to rest and breath again after the intense heat of summer MYTHS AND LEGENDS The myth of Virgo the virgin relates to the mother godess of Earth, of fertility and the mysterious of life. According to Greek legend, harvest time was given to the Demeter-Ceres who would pass the wheat onto the men. Wheat has throughout history been considered as the basic elemnet of life and essential for mortals to survive. THE LIFE OF A VIRGOS Practical and born worriers are both common traits of Virgos. There is a real need for them to find an inner peace and calm by harnessing these traits into dealing with life. Virgos can be very pernickity and are often found to lose themselves in the detail, a case of "can not see the wood for the trees" This is probably the most freindly of signs, because as well as being talkative and obliging they like to make themselves useful to others HEALTH It is important the Virgos spend as much time as possible enjoying the great outdoors. If they feel down and need a pick-me-up then long walks and cycle rides will be ideal for reviving their spirits. This association with the outdoors is also prevalent in there diet where Virgos will often be found enjoying wholefood diets, and can even be tempted by the joys of vegetarianism. If they do not take enough of the foods of the earth, then Virgos can often suffer with bowel problems and in some cases constipation. Virgos are very attracted to alternative medicine, often bought on by allergies and adverse reactions to medically administered medicines. The best thing for a Virgo is too find a balance between the normal and the alternative medicine, as well as adding plenty of exercise. LOVE, SEX AND PARTNERSHIPS Virgos can be very unassuming individuals, to such an extent that they can often be found asking “what he or she sees in me”. This is often a genuine modesty which can be very charming in younger Virgos, but latter in life it can be seen as being a lack of confidence which causes Virgos to put up barriers to other. As a result of this modesty Virgos can often find it difficult to let go emotionally and physically, and must try and relax and accept the compliants, love and affection being offered as the genuine article. Prehaps the most trait that a Virgo has is a tendancy to nag, especially in later life! CAREER Virgos tend to be followers rather than leaders and often will prefer to work under supervision. they are often apprehensive about taking matters into there own hands, and this is mainly due to the self modesty mentioned earlier. Prehaps the ideal outlet for a career would be where they are given a set of instructions and are then allowed to go away and complete. This can lead to many Virgos taking up careers as writers or critics, because of there incisive and naturally analytical mind. The also make excellant teachers and can be drawn into both traditional and other forms of medicine. THE RULING PLANET Mercury, the planet of communication rules Virgo people. It is very much the planet of intellectual thought processes and will often bestow good common sense on Virgos More information on Mercury can be found at : MERCURY OTHER INFORMATION Favorite colours - Grey Birthstones - Jasper, Flint and Tournaline. |
