Astrology Facts

Virgo's symbol is the Virgin, which is often misunderstood. The Virgin experiences everything for the first time, and people born under Virgo are much this way. They use life as a way to discover and, though they may have a sense of innocence about them, people born under this sign use those discoveries to serve others. Many find their way to care-giving professions, like nursing.

Virgo is associated with the nervous system, and these natives should be careful to protect this area from harm or stress by eating a balanced diet, engaging in an exercise program, and getting enough sleep and water. For Virgos, regular checkups are just their way of ensuring they live long and fruitful lives.

Virgos can experience challenges when they worry too much, or become overly critical of the people around them. This sign is, perhaps unfairly, known for its nitpickiness, so it's important to cultivate tolerance and learn to ask for help.
