Viries

**SIGN OF THE MOTHER**

VIR\* [JADE CASTE] // \*RIES [DERSE + TIME]

The alternative sway of Viries is Virist, and the opposite sign is Pigo.

The official website defines Viries in three segments: sign class, lunar sway, and aspect.

Jade Signs are the zodiac's caretakers. Intelligent and steady, they are excellent organizers and planners. They are detail-oriented, and can tend toward perfectionism, never satisfied with their endeavors. If you hire on a Jade Sign, be prepared for an excellent product, but also no peace until that project is flawless. They are fussy and particular, which can cause friction with those around them, although a Jade Sign holds no one to as high a standard as they hold themselves. Since they are shy with strangers and slow to open up, Jade Signs can often come off as timid or doormats, when really they just prefer to come at conflicts in a less combative way. Naturally loyal and loving, they make wonderful doctors, parents, and caretakers, whether they are taking care of people, pets, or plants. In relationships, they can be slow to open up, and need someone willing to be patient enough to go at their pace. If all of this makes Jade Signs sound soft and nurturing, they are, but keep in mind that they can also be fiercely destructive if those they care about are threatened. It takes a lot to make a Jade Sign snap, but if they do, take cover.

Derse Dreamers have personalities marked by a distinct and restless skepticism. Whatever their waking circumstances, chances are they will live in a state of dissatisfaction. Rebellion is in their blood, manifesting whether they are fighting back against a fascist dictatorship, or the most recent trend in casual footwear. Derse Dreamers are cerebral and self-aware; they have a far better grasp on the landscape of their own minds than on the world around them, which they can find alienating and confusing. But as so much of their identity is built on control, they will do their utmost to hide any insecurities, often with false humility or self-deprecating humor. They may be inflexible and pessimistic, but they are also great problem solvers, facing conflicts head-on with shrewd, calculating minds. They see one true path among an infinite snarl of wrong ones. They tend to be introverted, but if you win their trust Derse Dreamers are extremely powerful allies. However, they find sincere vulnerability difficult and will often keep people at arm's length. Letting go and living in the moment is hard for a Derse Dreamer; they constantly look toward the future and analyze the past.

Those bound to the aspect of Time are fighters, full stop. Their lives are often marked by struggle, not so much because fate has it in for them, but because they are fundamentally incapable of just accepting things as they come. They value action over passive acceptance, even if that may not be the wisest or safest choice. Don't try to tell a Time-bound to sit still and look pretty. They are very goal-focused, and tend to value the destination over the journey, and you won't find them making that journey in any traditional sort of way. To quote cheesy posters found on many a guidance counselor's wall-"impossible is just a word". If you need a miracle, they are who you call. At their best, the Time-bound are empathetic and relentless problem-solvers. At their worst they are ruthless, defensive, and impulsive.

Virgo (from the Greek Παρθένος), is the sixth (6th) of twelve (12) western zodiac signs. It takes inspiration from the zodiac Virgo "The Virgin (Maiden)", and people born within the months of August 23rd to September 22nd are known to be a Virgo (occasionally known as a "Virgoan".) The zodiac Virgo is one (1) of six (6) negative signs, one (1) of four (4) mutable signs, and one (1) of three (3) earth signs alongside Taurus and Capricorn. The sign ruler of Virgo is Mercury, the detriment is Jupiter, the exhaltation is Mercury, and the fall is Venus.

The six (6) negative signs (Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn, and Pisces) are known as the signs with a Negative Polarity. This is in reference to the energy that the sign holds. These six (6) signs are traditionally known as the passive, Yin, receptive, or "feminine" signs. The negative signs also include the earth and water triplicities.

The three (3) modalities or modes in reference to a sign is talking about the position it can be found in during each season. The four (4) elements manifests in three (3) modalities: Cardinal, Fixed, and Mutable. They are also known as the Quadruplicities, because they are grouped with four (4) signs in each group, one sign of each element. Each of the three (3) modes also have specific traits that the signs grouped to them hold or example. Mutable signs are known for their adaptability, flexibility, and resourcefulness. The Mutable signs are Sagittarius (fire), Pisces (water), Gemini (air), and Virgo (earth).

The four (4) elements (Air, Earth, Fire, and Water) are attributed to the twelve (12) western zodiac signs, and each group corresponds to a specific group of traits often found in those signs, along with a personality type that was proposed by the Greek physician, Hippocrates. These groups are known as the Four Element Triplicities. One of these groups is Earth which has been known to house the traits of Practicality, Caution, Material World. According to Hippocrates, the Earth element correlates to the Melancholic personality type. Melancholic people are described to be Neurotic Introverts or Unstable Introverts, which means that they tend to be anxious, rigid, pessimistic, and unsocial.

Virgo people are natural caretakers and they value health and well-being and they know that if you're mentally sick, your body will become sick and then nothing will ever get done. They have a tendency to keep their thoughts and problems to themself, even if it eats them up inside, but they never want to feel like they're a burden to other people. Virgos have a system that they follow, and they like to be organized, even in the most chaotic of situations. They have an innate ability to stay calm and never really show much for emotions until it all come spilling out like a volcano one day, but nobody needs to know that. They tend to have a soft side that they hide from other people out of a fear of getting hurt again, because their welcoming attitude has definitely earned them some unfortunate pain in the past. Despite everything they've been through, the Virgo stays strong and keeps their arms open to new friends and relationships.

The Virgo gets along well with a lot of signs, especially the more cool headed Taurus and Capricorn. Pisces and Scorpio are also great matches for the Virgo to have because they offer a difference perspective, are curious, and love helping each other. Cancer cares just as much about other people's feelings as the Virgo does and the two have a chance to create something really special together. Fire signs, Sagittarius, Aries, and Leo, hold a special connection to the Virgo and the two signs are likely to have a very strong intimate relationship with one another.
