We’re all taught to set goals. However, perhaps the most important one you can set is a list of goals to have fun. Once you’ve done that, then you turn your attention to all those practical necessities. They may look very different.
Beauty appears in many forms. However, acts of kindness have their own unique beauty
You have a strong instinct, an instinct that tells you what is in your best interest that you should do. But then you’ll make a list, and turn that instinct into a list that is very much in order, yet it seems to ignore what’s actually most important.
The secret? Be spontaneous. Make that list, and know that everything is there, but at the same time, if something comes to mind, do it. Plunge in, take a chance, and even more than that, take joy in the outcome, even if it isn’t what you’d expected.
Begin to walk away from the idea of things being good or bad or right or wrong, and rather, simply view them as a life experience. As a Virgo, once you learn to do that instead of worrying about getting things right, you will live in the moment on your own or around others, and whatever the outcome, you won’t look back because you’ll be anticipating yet more adventures. These adventures arise in part from plans you’ve made, but there are other adventures that also appear as a result of an unexpected discussion, something you spotted, or an encounter with somebody else.
They are the kinds of things that will increasingly become part of your everyday life and your everyday thinking, and the kinds of activities that will add to your life in ways you wouldn’t have dreamed possible.
Tempting as it is to talk about how things went last week, yesterday, or even a short while ago, avoid it. Reviewing such matters with those around you means you are living in the past, and the only time you can really have a good time is in the here and now.
As a Virgo, you have a strong instinct for taking care of your body, but the trick—not only to taking care of it but to enjoy every day—is to glory in the miracle that is your body, that it breathes, that it grows, and most of all, that it’s you.

By no means are you overly sentimental, yet you seem determined to hang onto certain arrangements. You may hope they’ll spring back to life. Not only is that unlikely, the more time, effort and thought you invest in them, the less you’ll have for the new developments currently coming your way.
Virgo: AUGUST 22 – SEPTEMBER 21
Ruler: Mercury
Symbol: The Maiden
Element: Earth
Flower: Buttercup
As a Virgo, you combine an earthy sensuality with the sharp cleverness of your ruler, Mercury. The pleasure you derive in beauty, nature, living, and eating well is genuine, yet being the sign of early fall, you have an instinctive awareness of the wise use of resources. Your flower is forget-me-not; your spice, redolent cardamom; and the mighty oak and the hazel are your trees. Your jewels have earthy colors, from topaz to sardonyx.
