Virgo –The virgin, is he as he truely appears

So we continue on our celestial journey (I know that sounds corny but I just couldn’t resist).

The Virgo or the Virgin, the sixth astrological sign in the Zodiac. It spans the 150-180 degree of the zodiac, between 152.72 and 180 degree of celestial longitude, which the Tropical Zodiac the Sun transits on average between August 23 to 22 September each year. Individuals under these dates may be called Virgos or Virgoans.

The Myth



The Ancient Greek writer Aratos told the story about the constellations of Virgo, the virgin. He said, Virgo may have belonged to the star race, the forefathers of the ancient stars. In primeval times, in the golden age, she lived among mankind as Justice personified and would exhort people to adhere to the truth. At this time people lived peacefully, without hypocrisy or quarrel. Later, in the silver age, she hid herself in the mountains, but occasionally she came down to berate people of their evil ways. Finally the bronze age came. People invented the sword and “they tasted the meat of cows, the first who did it.” At this point Virgo “flew away to the sphere”; that is, she departed to the celestial realm.

So basically she was the last immortal still believed to have lived among humans during the golden Era of Cronos, her name was Astrea. During the war of the Titans she was an ally of Zeus, like Niké (the Victory). She was also worshipped as the goddess of the harvest in the ancient world. The earth’s bounty- flowers, fruit and fields of grain- were seen as her Beloved, whom she mourned at harvest time, when he was cur down in his prime. Having spent the winter in the underworld, he was reborn each spring and reunited with her.

Symbols



The astrological symbols for Virgo and Scorpio are remarkably similar, since they are both created from an identical “m” – an ancient medical symbol. Both Virgo and Scorpio are associated with medicine and healing. Both constellations are extremely large in the night sky and easily identifiable. The enclosed shape in the symbol for Virgo and the “sting” in the Scorpion’s tale have been described as the feminine and masculine versions of the same symbol (take that however you want boys). A further explanation is that the inward tale on the glyph is thought to depict the sexual organs wrapping inward, closing itself to the world.

Virgo’s symbol is the virgin, and is often considered the shy, “lady in waiting” personality that is a little naïve. Though Virgo’s are seldom celibate, they often keep their personal identity intact throughout their lives. This composure is virginal in nature (yes yes I am grinning).

Virgo nitty-gritty



Apparently it is rare to find the stereotypical nitpicky, exacting, “clean freak” in modern-day Virgos (raised eyebrows, I say they might be rare but they are out there, bordering on OCD. Dirt to them is represented by 3 dishes in the kitchen sink). The sign as evolved with the times but some unmistakable traits are undeniable and remain firm. Virgo people are generally respectable, hard-working individuals who have love of knowledge and know-how.

Their virgin symbols shows itself in the lives of all Virgos through the love of all that is “natural” and a purity of spirit that keeps them self-sufficient and self-contained at least on the surface. They are sensitive to their surrounding and tend to embarrass easily and are generally reticent when faced with anything or anyone new. However once they do feel comfortable they can talk up a storm (throat clearing taking place) and quite a number of Virgos are not comfortable with being in the limelight. These types of Virgins, sorry I meant Virgos are just fine living in the background as long as they feel useful and appreciated. Virgos have a strong sense of responsibility. Even when they’ve convinced themselves to be irresponsible about something or the “other”, they will worry about it anyway.

Not all Virgos are workaholics however when not involved with some kind of project, there is generally a feeling of vague discontent, even when their lived are filled with work they are restless and somewhat nervous creatures. The fear of underperforming is very strong in them (sound of more throat clearing on my part). Virgos want to do EVERYTHING

well. Some are exacting and thorough, and those Virgos have convinced themselves to do a less-than-perfect job would will make them feel generally incomplete (I call it their “there’s a mark on my clean surface my world is ending” tendency. Yes I am grinning leave me along).

Virgos usually have a notable connection to the body, they are very body-aware. In some cases this shows up as some form of hypochondria (the drama queen), but, for the most part they are simply quite concerned with health matters and nutrition. Although they are naturally attracted to all that is natural and pure, they are generally unafraid of exploring all that is not. In fact Virgo is an intensely curious sign. Still there is a strong desire to remain pure on some level, despite their drive to know all things. Those Virgos that find an interest or a “calling” become connoisseurs – their attention to detail and their enormous observation powers gives them the ability to learn all the ins and outs of any subject. These people love to do research, in addition to analytic or detail work. They will happy pick anything apart, into the tiniest fragments if necessary BUT usually have trouble putting things back together again often failing to see the big picture (any bells ring yet, ding ding). Virgos stuck in the practical, material world might learn a lot about themselves if they are brave enough to try placing their lives on automatic pilot once in a while. Learning to let some things go would do wonders for the spirit; Virgos worry about EVERYTHING, they worry about their heath, work piling up, unread e-mails, things that they should do, things that they haven’t done, need I say more. And when they are not feeling well, they are overly critical and nervous. They have a whole slew of assorted complaints and throw small tantrums.

Virgos are PERFECTIONISTS- there’s no escaping this (resisting the urge to roll my eyes).They dream of mastery; they want to do something very well. Some Virgos are so scared of their perfectionist tendencies they tell themselves they don’t care, but this is obviously not the case. Others will dabble in this or that leaving a trail of incomplete projects project behind them. The happiest Virgo is the one that understands their need to do things well WITHOUT over doing anything. The best thing for a Virgo is to find something that interests them, one thing, and

master it.

Fussy fussy



Vigos can be fussy and rather private about their work and their private workspace. They get nervous when people look at their unfinished work and are overly protective of their methods of doing things. Despite their chronic lack of confidence, Virgos can be mighty proud – even arrogant- when it comes to their work, routines and hobbies. Secretly, they think their methods of doing things is the best. They often are! (now you are allowed to grin) They do take great pride in the little things, in a broader sense, Virgos can be self-effacing and self-critical.

Virgos often confuse people when their curiosity is mistaken for passion. The surprising thing is that although knowledgeable, Virgos don’t like to get their hands dirty, so to speak. Their willingness to explore is usually kept on the intellectual level. These people are well-respected and valued in their intimate circles for their loyalty, research skills, their willingness to lend a helping hand and their excellent powers of observation. They are generally kind and helpful souls who, when appreciated will do everything to make things work.

There is an odd combination of practical and intellectual in Virgo that is mistaken for coolness. They are shy and will brush off your compliments quickly and, sometimes, critically; but don’t let that fool you, they need respect and appreciation. In fact the happiest Virgos are those who feel highly appreciated and useful.

Virgos find security in the little things in life, they feel most content when they are straightening out the details of everyday life. They take care of these things happily and willingly, paying bills and balancing the books, even though they’ll never let on. They are actually very practiced at nagging and complaining. But as long as they are appreciated these people will help you take care of

your life, they are at their best when they are needed. A Virgo is at their worst without a steady routine and unsatisfying job; they become fussier (cringe) and complaining sorts. If a Virgos routine and plans are interrupted or not followed they tend to freak out.

For the non- workaholic Virgos, they are accused of being underachievers, and while this may be true they can suffer from lack of self-confidence, many- quite simply- are content with “regular” unassuming lives. They appreciate simplicity and are happy when they are not getting to much attention.

Virgos are not overly flashy in their communication style but it is thoroughly appreciated when their brainpower is admired and acknowledged. They have a deep seated need to keep track of the details and become high-strung when things are not orderly. The can become very impatient with others over the smallest of things.

General relationships



They express their affection for the people they love in little but practical ways. In relationships Virgos are self-effacing and kind and not very confident. At times seeming a bit stiff in demeanour when showing affection, some of them are not very sexually confident but aim to please non-the-less. They can’t help but poke holes when faced with the faith of the “other”. Their criticism can be maddening and their instance on seeing the practical in anything can be challenging. Virgos might be interested in others problem but can come off as seeming unsympathetic and cool, especially if this is not a significant “other”, their advice can seem a bit hard.

These creatures are not the flirtatious sort their appeal lies in their devotion, their willingness to work on the relationship and to make the relationship wok. They don’t try to impress with grand gifts and promises. Their gifts being less showy – but more generous- gifts of devotion and attention to detail about the “other”. They are quite sensitive in love – and insecure- and this loner like quality is part of their appeal. To please them show appreciation for the little things they do, the problem is they do so quietly so that you may not always notice.

Warning Virgos can be aggressive in nature.

Virgos tend to attract or be attracted to people who need help, or to people whose lives seems to lack order and structure because they have a tendency to want to “fix” things. Their relationships can be confusing as a result. Despite Virgos tendency to appear collected and professional, relationship can be messy simply because they don’t always see their partners and partnerships clearly.

Darkside



In their urge to label, organise, and precisely understand all things in life, Virgo can become rather obsessed with the whole idea of “order”. Anything that upsets this harmony and understanding could expose them to the terrors of the unknown! For Virgos “there is a place for everything, and everything has its place”. Virgo will do anything to achieve this state.

They cannot abide weakness in others, and whiny people are the types of people that they cannot stand. Because Virgo has a practical mind, people who feel sorry for themselves and their situation is an annoyance to them as there is always a solution and it simply needs to be applied. Virgo also tends to evaluate if someone is WORTHY of their attention, their help and their affection.

They also tend to chafe against authority, especially if the authority figure does not appear to be as knowledgeable as what they are. Virgos do not like confrontation; in fact they avoid it at all costs. Actually if they feel their perfect little world is being threatened or someone starts to rock the boat the shy away from it.

This particular star sign is not easily angered; actually it takes quite a bit of poking and prodding but when they do explode, be prepared for an all mother of a blow-out. Virgos usually tend to be physically strong and they can become physically violet when pushed to far.

Always remember the Virgo is very capable of hiding large parts of their nauture. They can and often do assume many different faces for the world around them.

The Sexual Nature of a Virgo Male

Since this is in tribute to someone close to me and since he is male I am about to get a definite kick out of this breakdown.

The virgo male DOES not need anyone to teach him to be a man. He is self-sufficient and self-directed. However, he can dig in his heels like a headstrong child. Like all earth signs, he’s stubborn. Virgo can plant himself firmly in a position and refuse to budge. “You can’t make me!” He’ll stand by your side just as willfully. Still, with Virgo, you can channel your maternal energy where it belongs: toward the children. And he’ll want at least one or two, if not a gaggle. He’ll spread his seed far and wide, and he tends to start young. Don’t be surprised if your Virgo already has kids from a previous partner or two! Since he’s naturally stern and fatherly, the Virgo man makes a devoted dad. He doesn’t mind playing papa to you, either, though he has his limits. It’s alright if you’re a little needy, as long as you’re smart and ambitious. His earth-sign nature makes him stable and grounded. From his melodious voice to his tender gaze, there’s something soothing about the Virgo man. He can hold you in a way that makes you feel completely safe.

Co-dependence is the Virgo man’s co-pilot. Many of his relationships start while he’s helping a “friend” get back on her feet. He has a knack for finding women who’ve fallen on hard times. He loves to be there, comforting you through whatever your troubles may be. He’ll listen to your troubles with a therapist’s patience, knowing that his foolproof strategy will work once again. The damsel in distress always falls for the noble knight. And if the knight just happens to galloping off once she’s restored to well-being, that’s just how fairy tales might end. He’s not necessarily going to promise you Happily Ever After just because he picked you up on a white horse. But he’ll never throw you off the horse before shepherding you safely back home.

The Virgo man is critical and very demanding; his extraordinary ability to seize on flaws makes him very selective. For most women his ability to see flaws can be unnerving, so never ask a Virgo man if you’re fat or flabby unless you expect an honest direct answer. He will see your flaws and probably point them out if it doesn’t put him off first, but if he compliments you and raves about you, you will know that it is nothing but total fact. Consequently, the fear of getting involved in a situation he cannot control, the lack of detailed and precise recipe for love handling, as well as his special exactness make it rather difficult for a Virgo man to start a relationship. It often happens that a Virgo man looks in his partner for things he himself refrains from. What is most terrifying to him in himself becomes the most fascinating in love: The fervency, the spontaneous expression of intuition and imagination, the energy and love of life. When the Virgo man meets these qualities in the woman he is interested in, the refrained child he carries within is set free.

A Virgo man will not fall for the “dumb blonde” or the cutesy “look at me” at me act. You may have been voted the “hottest” in the latest polls, but if you do not have a respectable level of intelligence he won’t even look at you. Lack of decorum and marked rudeness turns him off. So make sure you can hold your liquor and put that super short black mini dress towards the back of your closet. This mans kind of female has to be fresh, clean and crisp. He looks for a well mannered person with class and finesse. No one else but him needs to know just how sexy the woman in his life really is. He is prone to finding faults in others. He WANTS a little bit of sensual sexuality, mixed with intelligence and a unique but positive outlook on life. To him, quality of time spent means more than the quantity. He craves a relationship that is genuine and honest and sex that is passionate and sensual. Once you have won his heart, you will have him completely. A woman will be rewarded with a man who is truly sincere and dependable. With a Virgo man you will never have to worry about emotional or financial stability. You will always know where you stand with him and he will not stray. You will never ever have to keep an eye on him or wonder where he is. But to achieve this, you need to work at him constantly, appreciate him and everything he does strock (grin) his ego- but be genuine – about it (Virgo men hate falseness and lies). Meanwhile, he will learn what makes you quiver and moan and work on ways to improve upon it.

Understand he is a workaholic. He may put in long hours at work and that will takes away from his time with you. If you show him that you are supportive of his career and understand that how important the work he does is, you will be the one that reaps rewards. If it gets to be too much, simply tell him. DO NOT play jealousy games or anything that would even indirectly hurt him. Once you have crossed that line he will leave and never return. Instead, use the time apart to your advantage.

A Virgo man craves all things fresh and fun by mixing his work with flirting. What this will accomplish is a turned on man who is ready to fix whatever you need. Does he need to run to Home Depot run some errands for u? Go with him and while you cruise the aisle, run your hand across his ass or whisper how hot he makes you knowing whatever is broken will get fix and that he is fixing it. Don’t be obvious about it, make sure it’s something on the sly that maybe no one saw. While he is at work text him a message that you are fantasizing about him sitting behind his desk doing something he shouldn’t be or that you’ll be waiting for him in his favourite lingerie. When he is home and he is doing something as simple as changing a light bulb, make use of the nearest flat surface. Once he is done screwing in that light bulb, do a little screwing of your own. What man doesn’t want appreciation for a job well done?

He is a lover that is stable yet a little adventurous but so very capable. Those hands of his can build more than shelves and his mind can think of things other than blueprints. Because of that extraordinarily attentions to detail he has you might just find this Virgo man discovering things about you and your body that even you didn’t know. And because of his desire for order, control in the bedroom, control over you will be the order of the day but always tenderly. Play out his fantasies and he will allow you to live yours. A Virgo an after all always aims to please the woman he loves.

You might just discover that, that ordered polite face he presents to the world is covering a completely animal nature, but he requires ultimate trust for this.
