Describe the meaning of the zodiac sign Virgo.?

Answer 1

Conscientious, meticulous, organized ~ these are some of the well known traits of people with an emphasis in Virgo. But behind these descriptive features of Virgo's personality, the deeper psychological and archetypal meaning of the sign needs to be illuminated so we can better understand just what it is that motivates Virgo. Though in emphasis for those with the Sun or Moon in a particular sign, each sign symbolizes a particular aspect of life which we all experience, a set of issues, a particular psychological structure which is universal. Let's take a look at Virgo in this light.
In the cycle of development represented by the zodiac, the earth sign Virgo follows the sign Leo, that fiery sign which seeks acknowledgment and appreciation and is concerned with the development of a confident self sense, a strong and expressive ego and adequate self esteem. No longer motivated by the primary need for acknowledgment, in the Virgo stage we encounter the social feedback we receive in response to our self expression. Such feedback evokes a keen awareness of what we put into the world and how we effect others. Seeking to improve ourselves, to change for the better, we hopefully develop a more mature sense of responsible behaviour, a moral self determination which goes beyond simple conditioned conscience and social conformity.

Life is about more than just expressing and fulfilling ourselves. This stage necessitates a set of complex adjustments to society and to the world. We are required not only to accept criticism from others, but to become more honest and critically self aware, to appropriately modify our own behaviour, to become more skillful and competent in all facets of life ~ personal, social and practical.

At issue is the nature of self awareness, self knowledge, self criticism, self improvement, a degree of humility, serving others as well as oneself, dedication to the performance of a task for its own sake ~ an apprenticeship to life.

Of course, the normal human manifestation of this archetype can often look like obsession with details and order, fussiness, pickiness, too much self criticism and a controlling judgmentalism toward others. Virgo can become crippled with too much introspection, endless analysis, worrying and fretting, shyness and self consciousness and a general lack of intuitive and expressive spontaneity. At times, perfectionism and self effacement can manifest in Virgo with the accompanying resentment toward those who get the accolades while the Virgo is called on to do the necessary and tedious "behind the scenes" logistical work because "you do it so well"!

Ultimately Virgo is seeking the middle way, the path of moderation, of mind and body balance, of bodily and mental health. Virgo is so often capable of that daily, regular self discipline and tireless practice of good habits that the rest of us envy.

At best, Virgo concerns the development of a discriminating awareness rather than a critical judgementalism, a natural humility rather than neurotic self effacement, a skillful and dedicated craftsmanship and practical competence, an astute self awareness, and, without setting impossible standards of perfectionism, a dedication to improving and perfecting one's way of living.

Virgo

You've been carrying a secret around for some time now -- maybe even for months. It wasn't terribly oppressive to start with, but as the New Year begins, one of your resolutions will likely be to start fresh and let go of all emotional baggage, once and for all. Get it all out in the open by mid-January. At that point, an ex is extremely likely to call or email -- and not just to see how the cat's doing either. If you're attached now, you can expect to finally be able to make friends with that ex, even if just about everyone would have sworn it couldn't be done.

After all the clearing out you'll accomplish in early 2006, you'll be ready, willing and able to move on to more pleasant matters -- and more exciting ones too. Around mid-March, a lunar eclipse in your own sign will bring about a really big change in your love life. Not to worry: Given everything else that's on your astrological agenda, it can't help but be positive! In fact, no matter what you initiate at that time, you can expect it to bear fruit around the solar eclipse in late September. Oh, and if you're thinking about making some physical changes, plan to start a new diet or exercise program around either of those eclipses. These supercharged meetings of the Sun and Moon are famous for passing out energy, confidence and mega-determination. Invest that energy wisely, and you're pretty much guaranteed total and complete success -- mainly because you just won't stand for anything less.

When it comes to finances, things are looking good this year. Really good. Last year brought you luck and opportunities in that department, and you likely took advantage of it all. Of course, it took lots of hard work to make things happen -- but then, you've never been lazy, have you? As practical as you are, no one needed to remind you to stash a bit of last year's 'luck' away either. Now (with the possible exception of September and October, when you may be more prone to impulse-spending than usual) you can relax and enjoy the fruits of your labor. So if you want to go a bit overboard -- just a bit! -- or if there's someone in your life you'd really love to spoil, you won't have to worry about the bills this time around. Have a great year --you've certainly earned it all.

Answer 4

Truth? It doesn't mean anything at all. What MIGHT be a good idea is, after you have 'googled it', invest as much time and energy into reading why astrology DOESN'T work as you have reading about why it does. This will allow you to take a more balanced view of the subject and equip you with the necessary information to draw your own conclusions. Remember, blind acceptance of anything without challenge is dangerous.
