Curiosity - Progress - Perfection - Beauty - Order Virgo is the sixth sign of the zodiac, symbolizing purity, curiosity, order, and perfection. The constellation Virgo depicts a virgin, who was traditionally seen as a sensitive, wide-eyed soul, intent on discovering more about the world and their place within it. Though today’s Virgos are much more worldly than their naive symbolic counterpart, most still find comfort in sifting through the details of any new endeavor with an intense desire to grow with each experience. Interestingly, Virgos will occasionally research not only with the desire to learn, but to be prepared to fend off any individuals that might doubt their worldliness. They tend to become connoisseurs of a wonderful variety of subjects as a side effect of their incredible thirst for knowledge. Upright, this card references learning and growth. If a person has been feeling self-effacing or over-critical, a class-like atmosphere with deadlines may prove most helpful to gauge personal growthas well as a new understanding of one’s abilities, emotions, or inspirations. Progress is more evident within an organized structure of milestones. Reversed, the Virgo card may reveal that a person’s perfectionist tendencies may be getting in the way of true productivity. The release of a new project may be delayed, deadlines not met, or the slowing of progress may be a side effect of a struggle to make sure everything is “just right.” Reassessing personal values that determine success may be necessary in order to move forward at this time.
