Astrology Spotlight ♥ Virgo (August 23 – September 22)

Welcome back to another Astrology Spotlight where I briefly explain each of the 12 astrology signs. If you’re new to astrology and know next to nothing about astrology hopefully this series will help you out. You can also refer to these posts to learn more about your sun, rising, moon, or anything on your birth/natal chart. I include the strengths and weaknesses of each sign as well as facts that suit each astrology sign. Despite the sign, I truly believe that every astrology sign has good and bad personality qualities and that we can transform our negative traits into positive ones if we desire.

In this post, we’ll be learning about the astrological sign, Virgo. Virgo’s are hard workers and responsible, they enjoy having a routine and staying organized in their lives. They’re also very detail-oriented and pay attention to all of the smaller details many might miss. However, because of their keen eye, and perfectionist tendencies they can sometimes become obsessive and too critical. Virgo’s are also prone to stress and if not given enough time to unwind or relax they’ll drown in it.

Remember that you are in control of your life and shouldn’t take astrology too seriously because you’re capable of anything. Astrology can help you understand more about yourself and others but not everything is 100% true. You always have freedom so you shouldn’t base your life around astrology just because something is said about your sign. Take what resonates and leave what doesn’t. You always have control over how you act and react.
