Dr.Nikki's Zodiac Signs:
Virgo - the Virgin

August 22nd to September 22nd
The constellation Virgo seems eternally calm and
composed in her winged glory.  Those born under this
sign may well appear that way to others while there is
an emotional maelstrom going on underneath. Virgos
have an inherent ability to make everything look easy
Your real friends will understand that.

Most of your energy comes from that which you develop yourself through work
or self-improvement.  You are willing to do the work to better yourself and can
pour yourself into a commitment.  Normally reserved and modest, you are
definitely practical and are not normally one who is caught off guard.  You are
analytical and good at solving problems or coming up with alterative solutions.  

Rather than the overt in-your-face ostentation of Rococo Art, your tastes run
more towards the refined lines of minimalism.  For a Virgo one perfect red rose
will mean more than a whole vase full…for the Virgo doesn’t look at the rose,
the Virgo first sees the petals, then the rose.  

Conscientious to a fault your word is your bond and is very important to you.  
You will do everything in your power to keep your word once it is given.  Virgo
also alludes to the Virgin, innocence, and the fact that there are times when less
is more.  

You prefer to watch, reserved, before entering into a situation, but once you
enter into it you give it 100%.  Unfortunately what is one of your greatest
strengths is also one of your greatest weaknesses – sometimes you give too
much and in doing so you unintentionally hurt yourself or others.   This is a
double whammy for you because you are so caring of those with whom you
choose to share your life…although you may not show it to them.  

Virgo is typified by one of the greatest rulers of history – Elizabeth I.  This
tremendous woman ruled at a time when women were considered far less than
men; her method of ruling without ruling, decision by indecision, and playing the
great game of politics in a passive way allowed her to remain on the Throne, a
virgin, “married to the land” and people of England.  (This also gives an
allegorical reference to the Arthurian legends wherein the health of the ruler of
the land was represented by the wealth and health of the people and the land
itself.  Elizabeth wisely capitalized on this well rooted belief of the people of the
English Countryside.)  

Virgo is often misunderstood.  When dealing with the Virgo personality
remember that still waters run deep and beneath the serenity seen at the top of
a storm (the outer person a Virgo shows to the world) is a roiling maelstrom of
emotional depths in such areas as dignity, refinement and grace.

Virgos would do well to mate themselves with patient and understanding
Taurus.  Another good match for you would be Capricorn.  Beware Sagittarius
and Gemini as they could bring misaligned matches that result in more
challenges than refined Virgo is willing to take on.  Your opposite sign, Pisces,
could well be a good match – if you can accept the Piscean perchance for
dreaminess and escapism that is.
and that life is “easily aces” when inside things are actually
falling apart.  

Intelligent and quick witted Virgo is sure to be on lots of
invitation lists.  You are great at parties.  On the other
hand, you have a difficulty drawing appropriate boundaries
and are sometimes considered an interloper sticking your
nose into other peoples’ business.  You are good at figuring
out problems and issues for others and just want to help.
