Virgo
(August 23 - September 23)
To really understand Virgo, think about one word: Monk. Or monk. Either way, it applies. That TV show – I have no idea if it’s still on – had a great preview a while back where the OCD detective – Monk – is being chased by bad guys down the street, and yet he has to stop and touch every parking meter as he’s being chased. That, my friends, is the downside of Virgo – an obsessive need for control.
But the upside? Well, think about a regular monk. Monks have this serene life, very pure, full of order and control and light, learning and philosophy. It’s pretty great, right?
By nature analytical, refined, and modest, Virgo might come off as kind of a cold fish sometimes – but hold your judgment, please. Virgos are sensitive souls who tend to build up controls around themselves to deal with all of their emotions, which they actually do feel deeply.
Biggest Insult: You're so impractical.
Quickest Way to Get Virgo into Bed: Make sure you're clean. Very clean. Maybe too clean.
Most Likely to: Do your taxes for you.
Should Have Been Born: in a vacuum-sealed bubble. In the woods. This might seem contradictory - and yeah, you know what? It is. Doesn't make it any less true, though.
To Make Virgo Forgive You: write them a very reasoned letter detailing the mistakes you've made, and outlining exactly what you plan to do to remedy said situation in the future. Possibly get it notaraized.
