Virgo is the sixth astrological sign in the Zodiac, originating from the constellation of Virgo. In western astrology, the sign is no longer aligned with the constellation as a result of the precession of the equinoxes. In astrology, Virgo is considered a "feminine", negative (introvert) sign. It is also considered an earth sign and is one of four mutable signs.[1] Virgo is ruled by the planet Mercury.

Individuals born when the Sun was in this sign are considered Virgo individuals. Under the tropical zodiac, the Sun is in Virgo roughly from August 23 to September 22.[2] Under the sidereal zodiac, it is currently there roughly from September 17 to October 17.

Virgo is the only zodiac sign represented by a female.

[edit] Mythology
According to one interpretation[citation needed], the Virgo constellation depicts Astraea, the virgin daughter of the god Zeus and the goddess Themis. Astraea was known as the goddess of justice, and was identified as this constellation due to the presence of the scales of justice (Libra) nearby, and supposedly ruled the world with her wise ways until mankind became so callous that she returned to the skies, disgusted. Virgo is also identified with Persephone, daughter of Demeter (goddess of agriculture and guardian of marriage). Persephone was the goddess of innocence and purity, then later on became the Queen of the Underworld, when she was abruptly snatched away by Hades.

The astrological symbol of Virgo is said to represent the arms and torso of the virgin holding a sheaf of wheat.


[edit] Associated traits
Astrologers broadly agree that the following are the characteristics of Virgo:

Analytical / critical [3][4][5]
Precise / meticulous [3][4][5]
Orderly / methodical [3][4][5]
Practical [3][4][5]
Mental / intelligent / inquiring [3][4][5]

Perfectionistic [3][4]
Shrewd / witty [3][4]
Conventional / conservative [3][4]
Refined / polite [3][4]

Reserved / cool / undemonstrative [3][4]
Suitable occupations are those in which analytical and practical, methodical qualities are needed, such as doctor, teacher, psychologist, technician,[3] nurse, hygienist, scientist, accountant, secretary, and inspector. In medical astrology, Virgo governs the intestines and digestion, also spleen and nervous system.

Many astrologers believe that each of the twelve signs have identifiable physical traits. Some think that physically, individuals born under the sign of Virgo tend to have a graceful figure, a roundish head, delicately-shaped lips, large and clear eyes, small, symmetrical, and refined features, a high forehead, long arms and thin eyebrows. They are thought to usually be of slightly above average height. [6]


[edit] Compatibilities

There are many variables that determine compatibility in astrology, such as birth dates, birth months, birth years, position of a sign within the Sun, the Moon, Stars, etc. The signs listed as compatible with Virgo do not reflect an individual profile or individual reading as interpreted within astrology, but rather reflect a general guideline and reference to compatibility as dictated by variables such as Qualities and Elements within the Zodiac.
