The character of the Virgin

Virgo has an analytical, critical and perfectionist mind, sometimes to the point of excess. This being so meticulous gives those born between August 23 and September 22 a sometimes restless and obsessive temperament. What matters for a Virgo is to have constant control over themselves and the surrounding reality, always maintaining a certain detachment from situations. Those born under this sign of earth, in fact, do not want to leave anything to chance, but rely on reason and organization.

No frills for the Virgin, she only cares about the core of things. It is certainly the most serious and responsible sign of the zodiac and in this sense it is very similar to Capricorn. Attentive not only to the circumstances, but also to her own well-being, she could turn body care into her profession. On a sentimental level, those born under the sign of Virgo initially prove rigid and detached, but, when they feel they can really trust the other person, they melt and show all their love with gestures rather than words. Faithful and loyal, her sense of honor pushes her to respect the commitments made. Despite this, the partner will still have to pay attention because, under a mild and reserved character, a nonconformist, rebellious and greedy Virgo for independence could be hiding!

Love and sex

It is not uncommon for those born under the sign of Virgo to be often single. This does not depend on their degree of palatability, but on their being demanding, uncompromising and perfectionist. The verb to settle is absolutely not in the vocabulary of this sign of the zodiac and, before a Virgo or a Virgo manages to find the perfect partner and lives up to their (unattainable) expectations, it could take a long time. It is in this circumstance that those born between August 23 and September 22 decide to dedicate themselves only to themselves, cultivating their independence and indulging in some adventures without obligation. But what happens when Virgos actually fall in love? They never completely transform and always maintain a certain rigor (except under the covers, where they give free rein to their wild side), however they prove to be more malleable and able to offer unconditional support. On the other hand, anyone who falls in love with a Virgo must be aware of the fact that this person can turn out to be rather cold and sometimes hyper-critical. However, if the feeling is genuine, he will be able to demonstrate his love in alternative but equally effective ways.

Health

Health looks good for Virgos. Those born under this sign, in fact, pay close attention to personal care and, in particular, to prevention. Each year, they never fail to take a moment to do routine checks and make sure everything is working perfectly. If something is wrong, they are certainly not discouraged and devoured by fear, but they take every step with great courage and faith in medicine. In general, among all the zodiac signs, they are the most likely to suffer from migraines due to the strong stress and pressures they usually inflict on themselves.

The Virgin woman

Shy, but brave. Reserved, but irreverent. The Virgo woman is marked by a profound duality: on the one hand meticulous and insecure and, on the other, rebellious and assertive. This contradiction also spills over into the sometimes eccentric and symptomatic style of a person who is not afraid to dare.

Astrology explains to us that women born under the sign of Virgo are flawless and, sometimes, even irreplaceable at work, being devoted, faithful, organized and hyper competent. Whether it's a cook, an accountant, an architect or a teacher, one thing is certain: a Virgin always puts all her effort into it, completing the job perfectly. However, despite his enormous qualities, he does not like to show off and always remains humble, sometimes also due to deep insecurity.When he manages to put aside his inhibitions, he is able to be successful even in the roles of responsibility, making himself accepted and respected by all.

When in a couple and confident in her relationship, the Virgo woman loves devoutly and unconditionally. Starting in adolescence, he looks for a serious partner with whom to start a family, have children and buy a house: this is why he often gives the impression of wanting to settle down as soon as possible. It may seem stern and boring, but in reality, when at ease, the woman with this zodiac sign knows perfectly well how to go crazy and involve the people around her. Under that semblance of a teacher, there is, in fact, a very ardent passionate side.

The Virgo man

You don't notice it immediately because the Virgo man is all to be discovered. Wise or crazy, he is characterized by a keen curiosity and a certain commitment on several fronts. It is said that he is manic and rigid, but when he decides to take care of something or someone, he always does it in a timely and genuine way.

The professional qualities of those born between August 23 and September 22 are infinite: seriousness, precision, gift of synthesis, inventiveness and ingenuity. The man, whose zodiac sign is that of Virgo, is the ideal official, whether he is a post office employee or a ministerial authority. Perhaps he lacks imagination, but he knows how to devote himself completely to others and will feel perfectly at ease doing a job that allows him to help and treat others: in fact, he has a good chance of establishing himself as a nurse, doctor, pediatrician and even a veterinarian. He will always be a good collaborator, whose competence and reliability the bosses will no longer be able to do without, above all because he is responsible and has no desire to bully others.

It is among Virgo men, as well as Capricorns, that we find most of the singles. The Virgo man is suspicious and does not tolerate intrusions into private life. As a result, he sometimes deprives himself of a lot of things like love, lightness, and just plain fun. This behavior is mainly due to the fear of being satisfied and being disappointed. For this reason, he often takes refuge in reason and leaves no room for feelings, ending up not binding himself to anyone. However, when he really falls in love, he is ready to keep the commitment made forever. He is a faithful and reliable being, but never ask him to change or break his principles.

The symbolic image of the Virgin

The planet of Virgo resides in Mercury. Attention: it is an adult Mercury, who wears the caduceus, a symbol of wisdom and foresight. It is a stick around which two snakes twist. Myth and legend lead it back to the primordial chaos (two snakes fighting) and its polarization (separation of the snakes made by Hermes); the crossing of snakes around the stick symbolizes the balance of opposing trends around the axis of the world. Even if it wants peace and serenity, the zodiac sign of Virgo is characterized, more than any other sign of the zodiac, by this double attraction for light and darkness.
