The Big Leagues

Virgo: From the Sandbox to the Big Leagues
By Ellen Zucker

The Sun moves into Virgo in late August and it is time for Leo children to grow up. It is fun to play, but then what? When you are ready to ask this question you are ready to advance to the next level: Virgo.

We tune into Virgo energy when we move from dabbler to master craftsman. To go from the sandbox to the big leagues we must learn, practice and polish our skills.

Remember the old saw about how to get to Carnegie Hall? The route takes you through Virgo.

Virgo’s goal is perfection. And nothing pleases Virgo more than to be of service. While Virgo cleans her share of messes, she finds her highest expression as the consummate professional who executes complex tasks flawlessly.

Virgo is the place where we take pride in our finely honed skills and the satisfaction of a job well done. But to get to the level of master craftsman, one must develop an eye for detail. It is that attention to detail that makes it possible to execute work to the highest standards of quality.

Virgo won’t be satisfied with anything less.

No one is half as good as Virgo at cleaning up and organizing disorder. And no one is half as good at picking things apart.

And so you will find many researchers with lots of Virgo energy in their charts.

Virgo rightly earns her reputation for her skill at analysis. Give her a forest and she will find the trees.

Give her a computer and she will write a program. That is because Virgo, a mutable sign, is so resourceful, no one is better at organizing disparate elements into a system that works.
