The sign of the "Critic" or "Technician". Virgo is the sign of the realist. Virgo's earthy nature is well informed of what needs to be done and when it needs to be done. One of the most reliable signs of the Zodiac, Virgo has the potential to outshine them all. The Virgo personality is a very controlled one. The necessity of being completely aware of their surroundings can become more then tiring for them. Virgos pick up where others leave off, they need to have the understanding of the finer details of life. What may seem monotonous to others is Virgos sport. Opposite of Gemini, Virgos tend to be extremely one minded, and are overwhelmingly focused. One of the main focuses of Virgo is work. On more then one occasion Virgo's will bring their work home with them. Virgo's are always in need of leaving a good impression. This is why they have the unfair reputation of being a perfectionist. Although Virgos can be quite self-conscious, it is only because of a need to fit into their social environment. Virgo people have noble motivations, they help humanity by excruciatingly analyzing and pointing out mistakes others may have missed. Virgo personalities are extremely involved in diet and health issues. Virgo people usually have a regular workout routine, or are members of the local gym. Virgo's knows that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but that a little working out will never hurt anyone. Virgo people are extremely dependable and sincere. Their head rules over their heart, so their relationships are usually very realistic and accommodating.

Final Thoughts: Learn how to relax, everyone needs to take a break sometimes. Try not to get too caught up in the finer details of life that you miss the big picture. Beauty is on the inside as well as on the outside and not everyone judges a book by what's on the cover. Always remember, nobody's perfect. Sometimes life's biggest rewards come from life's biggest mistakes. By : intuitivetarot
