​Virgo is one of the 12 Zodiac signs in astrology, and this is the sixth sign of the Zodiac. Each Zodiac sign has its own energy, and this shows how the energy is expressed for different planets, bodies, and other positions. You're likely most familiar with your Sun sign, and a Virgo Sun is practical, attentive, and hard-working. Virgo Astrology & Your Natal Chart
Wherever Virgo is present in your natal chart, this is an area where you're detailed and focused. If you have any natal planets in Virgo, you can feel the Virgo energy strongly personally with whatever that planet rules.
Virgo is an earth sign, along with Taurus and Capricorn, and earth signs are full of practical and earthy. Virgo is also a mutable sign, along with Gemini, Sagittarius, and Pisces, and the mutable signs are flexible. Virgo connects with the 6th house of work, and is ruled by busy Mercury. At-a-Glance Virgo Keywords:
Virgo in Astrology: Hard-working
Virgo is the sign of work in astrology. This sign is hard-working, and wants to have projects to focus on. These tend to be smaller projects though, and Virgo breaks down big projects and tasks into smaller ones to make them more manageable. Virgo connects with the work we do on a daily basis, and this can be our actual jobs and employment, as well as the work we don't get paid for, like chores and housework.
Virgo in Astrology: Detailed
Virgo rules the details in astrology, and this sign pays close attention. Virgo reads the fine print, and the tiny details matter a lot. Virgo can make use of the small details to its advantage, and can be helpful with others this way as well.
Virgo in Astrology: Practical
Virgo is a practical earth sign, and lives in the real, physical world. Virgo tries to see things as they are, though sometimes its mind can run away given it's ruled by Mercury and is a mutable sign. But Virgo tries to do a good job at controlling this as best as it can.
Virgo in Astrology: Structure and Order
Virgo rules structure, order, routines, and regimens. Virgo is the king of schedules! Virgo tries to stick to the schedule it creates, and gets annoyed when others don't. Virgo doesn't want to waste one second of its time, so having some structure and a schedule helps.
Virgo in Astrology: The Mundane
Virgo rules the mundane in astrology, and is a sign that wants to be realistic. It doesn't get caught up in the exciting and daring, and instead sticks to the details, to the practical, and to what it knows well. Virgo doesn't get bored with the mundane like the other signs do.
Virgo in Astrology: Health
Virgo is the sign of health in general, so this sign is focused on health and wellness. Virgo wants to be as healthy as possible, and rules routine maintenance of all kinds, including regular checkups. Virgo needs healthy diets and eating, and to keep physically busy as well.
Virgo in Astrology: Busy
Virgo is a super busy sign thanks to being ruled by Mercury and to being a mutable sign. Virgo doesn't do well resting on its laurels, and idle hands can be a problem, so Virgo can fill up its schedule with plenty to do, and always has something on the mind that can be worked on when there's a moment to spare.
Virgo in Astrology: Perfectionism
Virgo does rule perfectionism, and this sign can demand too much from itself. Being such a hard worker, so detailed, and so focused, Virgo can sometimes take on too much, stress itself out, have burnout, and then gets mad at itself for not being perfect. Virgo has to learn to be more realistic about what it can do, and show itself some grace.
Where Your Virgo Energy is Found
If you have any natal planets in Virgo, the way those planets express themselves is via Virgo, so they are detailed, practical, and focused. The more Virgo planets you have, the more Virgo-like you can be.
Even if you have no natal planets in Virgo, you will have at least one natal house with Virgo. The house that falls in Virgo (has Virgo on the house cusp) can show areas of life where you take a detailed, practical approach. If you have no Virgo house cusps, Virgo is intercepted (contained) in the house that falls in Leo, and your Virgo energy can manifest subconsciously with whatever that house rules. Transit Planets in Virgo
When the transit (moving) planets are in Virgo, this can give all of us some Virgo energy to play with. The transit Sun is in Virgo roughly every year from mid August to mid September, and this is Virgo Season, which brings greater focus for us all.
Transit Mercury in Virgo can help us focus on the details and work on small projects; transit Venus in Virgo can make us more attentive with loved ones; transit Mars in Virgo can give strong work ethics and energy for work; transit Ceres in Virgo can help us take care of the little things that improve support and resources; and transit Jupiter in Virgo brings work opportunities and improvement to our daily lives. Transit Saturn in Virgo can bring out issues we have with Virgo, so issues around our work ethic, perfectionism, and handling stress. Any issues around that, we can struggle with, and Saturn can prompt us to work it out. Saturn was last in Virgo 2007-2010 (and won't be again until 2036). Transit Uranus won't be in Virgo until 2045, but we'll experience many changes in our work life, daily life, and with health matters. Transit Neptune won't be in Virgo until 2092, but at that point, we'll merge the mundane with magic. Transit Chiron moves to Virgo in 2043, and we can tackle issues related to stress and demanding too much of ourselves. Transit Pluto was last in Virgo 1956-1972 (and won't be again until 2202), and this brings transformations of our work lives, daily lives, routines, and details. Strong Virgo Energy in Astrology
When multiple planets are in Virgo in your natal chart, this can give you strong Virgo energy in your life and personality. You can be practical, detailed, and focused. This can be the case if you have a Virgo stellium (3+ planets in one Zodiac sign), or if you have 2 of your primary triad (Sun, Moon, Rising) in Virgo.
You can also feel that you have strong Virgo energy if your natal Mercury is strong, which is the planet that rules Virgo (especially in an earth or water sign). This can be the case if your natal Mercury is conjunct your natal Sun, Moon or Ascendant, or your 1st house ruler, or if your natal Mercury is a singleton (only planet in an element, modality, or house type). When multiple transit planets are in Virgo, this gives all of us a strong dose of Virgo energy all at once. We're all hard-working and practical. How we end up feeling this personally is usually focused on the house in your natal chart the Virgo energy occurs in. Suggested Reading: The Virgo Sun sign page Comments are closed.
