As a Virgo, and somebody who likes to organize things, you know very well how much you like a list. Yet it is vital that you recognize that the goals in your life will change: every year, every month, every week, and, in fact, every day.
It’s tempting to speak frankly. But I learned others are not ready for the truth at once
One of the most important skills for you as a Virgo is learning to let go. As you well know, you work hard at getting things organized, and coming up with a perfect vision of what’s possible. The perfect plan. The perfect solution for a problem. And often, you will be involved with rescuing individuals who are struggling, helping them sort out their lives.
All of this is important, and, in some cases, it may be your job as well. There is a skill that needs to be used to deal with all of them, and that is the skill that comes with saying, “That’s enough.”
It may mean that you’ve done everything you can, or it may mean that you need to hand over those tasks to somebody else. Yet there’s a part of you that finds it very difficult to let go. You have a certain pride in finishing things, and that’s your big lesson: to let go.
However, there is also another reason—and that is when you let go of one thing, quite naturally, the next thing will appear. And that thing that appears will fit in with the skills you’ve learned recently.
Adopt that approach, and instead of clinging to what you want to finish you will say farewell to it, knowing that something wonderful, and something that is perfectly suited to you, is coming your way, and probably within the blink of an eye.
Sometimes you are modest—too modest. It is important that you learn how powerful you can be when you need to be. This isn’t about explaining what you have in mind, or getting others to do what you think. It is simply a matter of stating the truth.
It’s very possible for you to feel guilty, even when you’re taking care of yourself. Why? Probably because the regimen you have in mind is almost impossible to attain. The trick is to be a little more easygoing, and a little more forgiving with yourself.
As a Virgo, and somebody who likes to organize things, you know very well how much you like a list. Yet it is vital that you recognize that the goals in your life will change: every year, every month, every week, and, in fact, every day.
Although you are likely to be short on facts about recent developments, that shouldn’t keep you from taking action on what you do know. If others say you will need to organize plans beforehand, thank them politely, but ignore them. With things moving swiftly, you’ll need to think and act fast.
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.
