Virgo stands for the 'womb of time' wherein God's plan is being worked out through pain, struggle and conflict. Virgo represents the sign of the hidden higher spirit in every person. The seed planted in earth, must take root in the darkness, and through struggle break its sheath and struggle towards the Light. Virgo is the last of the personal signs, and represents the threshold of the birth of the inner person. Mercury, the planet of motion, inclines natives of this sign to a state of constant activity.
Tremendous energy is directed towards doing and accomplishing.
While other signs are dreaming up of things to do, Virgoans are busy doing them. Virgoans value work and the work ethic highly. They are meticulously organized and they prize efficiency. Something about them enables them to attend to the smallest of details. Nothing escapes their microscopic analysis and they seldom tolerate shoddy workmanship.
