Roostophe Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 I have no idea how a Virgo, aka me, are supposed to be like. All I know is that the symbol for Virgo is a girl, and I'm not that. Failure at stage one I believe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon_BlizZACK Posted January 25, 2008 Author Share Posted January 25, 2008 Any luck? Virgo Your element: Earth Your ruling planets: Mercury Symbol: The Virgin Your stone: Sapphire Life Pursuit: To do the right thing Vibration: Compassionate and caring Virgo's Secret Desire: To love and be loved in return Description: Virgos are often put down badly by many astrologers and written up as being fussy and narrow-minded. But when a Virgo shines, there is practically no sign to match their inner light. An in-tune Virgo is a treat to meet. When a Virgo is confident within themselves they are the most successful, structured and creative of all the signs. Many Virgos can be found working in the "service to others" industries, ranging from welfare work, doctors, school-teachers through to practising natural forms of healing like massage, herbal remedies etc. One of the most magical characteristics of the Virgo is no matter how many times life or romance turns sour on them, they still manage to maintain faith in others, refusing to become cynical. There is ingenuity around this sign, a kind-heartedness, which unfortunately is sometimes played upon by others for their advantage. Virgos can often become victims of relationship power-games, where they are mistreated. Creative and sensitive, Virgos are delicate people who, like rare and special orchids, require individual treatment to fully blossom into their true unique beauty. Shy, they are happy to allow others to take centre-stage and often generate their time and energy into making those they love happy or successful. Virgos are givers and when the chips are down and you need a friend, the one available during those testing times when you need advice or companionship the most, is likely to be a Virgo. Virgos understand human frailties better than most, because they are so deep and reflective themselves. With a Virgo in your life you have someone who understands and cares and any romance or friendship based upon these qualities is certain to be mutually rewarding. Star Sign Compatibility How compatible is your star sign with another star sign? your fully- detailed astrology report no ordinary horoscope can provide. If you were born on the first or last day of a Sun sign, in astrological terms you were born on a cusp. If that's the case, you will probably benefit from reading your own Sun sign and the Sun sign that ends or begins right before or after your date of birth. For example, if your birth date is 22 December, your Sun sign is Capricorn, but you probably have some Sagittarian traits as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayseven Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 As I thought -- that virgo mumbo-jumbo applies to me too! Aw, shucks :P .. Yeah I don't really believe there are only twelve kinds of people either. It's nice to indulge in believing in faith once in a while, though.

It was quite nice reading that, although I reckon all the other descriptions make each starsign sound like the best one. Some of what's put there is quite true, and what I bolded couldn't be less true. What's put there is correct, unlike the newspaper horoscopes. Don't be so sure. *Checks between legs for trousersnake.* Yup, still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gizmo Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Starsigns simply use terms that can be applied to virtually everyone. You read through them and its the same thing repeated for each one, but said in a different way. Also, people read them and there are 3 things stated - 2 are bollocks but it just so happens that one of them was right, so everyone goes crazy thinking, omg-it-really-happened-it-must-be-true! Completely ignoring the other things which was rubbish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've got a decent sized portion of your star sign that you don't believe. Maybe for someone else, paragraph 1 doesnt fit, but the rest does. People pick and choose what they believe based on what they want to believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I 'believe' on what I said is true because it is truly true. It isn't something questionable like what many people believe. I doubt every Virgo will want to work in the areas stated in the extract, or that everyone who works in those areas are Virgo. Or, I could just be in a minority...

Supergrunch Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 I'm sorry, what? Are you seriously suggesting that the theory of evolution is unfounded made-up nonsense? Where's Supergrunch when you really need him... I nearly fell out of my chair reading King_V's post. Anyway, I think horoscopes work to some extent in that they descibe certain types of people, but it's pretty much lucky dip as to whether you happen to be the correct type. And of course, it's very easy to write descriptions that everybody thinks describes them accurately. If you're really interested in dividing people up into personality groups, then you might want to look into Myers-Briggs personality typing.

JoeTrumpet Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I'm an Aries, but the description simply doesn't fit. My most notable feature should be my love of adventure, but anyone who knows me would describe me as infatuated with plainness. I dress in the exact same clothing everyday, I eat almost the exact same food everyday, I do the exact same thing everyday, and I have done all this for years and wouldn't have it any other way. I should prefer a career of thrill, but I want to be a professor; I should prefer spicy food, but mild sauce I can't even stand; I should enjoy horror films, but they give me nightmares. I suppose some aspects fit me, as I can be quite passionate. Leadership? When I am very into something, yes, but if I feel someone is more qualified, I am quite fine not being the leader. Some aspects work, but on the whole, I don't think people would expect me to be an Aries unless they heard me talking about something I'm passionate about. But astrology is still fun to read every once in awhile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon_BlizZACK Posted January 27, 2008 Author Share Posted January 27, 2008 Athena Star...woman is my best friend Aries Your element: Fire Your ruling planets: Mars Symbol: The Ram Your stone: Ruby Life Pursuit: The thrill of the moment Vibration: Enthusiastic Aries Secret Desire: To lead the way for others. Description: Aries are fire signs and those born under this element are regarded in astrology as adventurous, active and outgoing. It won't matter where you go or how remote or unusual it is - from the Outback to the Antarctic - you can be sure that an Aries has been there before you (or at the very least you will meet one along the way!) Aries is a uniquely naive sign. Although they are independent, outgoing and assertive they are also surprisingly trusting, often innocently walking into the lion's den at times. No matter what upheaval, challenge or triumph they confront - an Aries has a wonderful ability to bounce back. Their faith in life and the future remains untouched by hardship. Their gift is that they are always children at heart and the world is always a magical place for them. Many famous sports people are born under this sign. Aries is regarded as the most physical sign and because of its Mar's rulership; it is also one of the most highly charged masculine energy signs in astrology. No wonder women born under Aries are forceful, dynamic and aggressive, and as a result these Aries women frequently find themselves with dilemmas surrounding their romantic relationships. For them, a man has to be a 'real man' to deal with an Aries woman, otherwise she intimidates him. And conversely for the Aries male, a woman has to be a real woman to deal with him, because he is looking for many balancing component traits (his true feminine side) in his partner. She has to run the gamut in his support system, from the Aries man's best friend, true companion, through to his muse, and yet she must never ever answer him back! Therefore Aries can be a confusing sign because there is a complex combination of very strong masculine and feminine expressions all combined together. Because of the male energy surrounding it, when a woman is born under Aries, it creates some of the most interesting women in the world, women who are adventurous, independent and have competitive natures. It also tends to make them very forthright. But whether male or female, Aries people are 'doers' rather than 'talkers'. They are the impulsive, act first, ask questions or have doubts later, sign of the zodiac. That's why their lives are often filled with many dramas and sometimes even accidents! Their ability to live life close to the edge provides them with a wealth of 'real experience' to call upon. When an Aries person talks about something or somewhere they've usually done it or been there, rather than simply read about it in a book. Being active people Aries can't adapt to any kind of restriction, particularly possessive relationships. They often travel to escape any feelings of being stuck or possessed. Aries people love challenges. In fact, if everything is running smoothly, they are quite capable of going out and doing something (sometimes quite foolish) to rock the boat. Aries love to race in where angels fear to tread.

Rummy Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Being the psychologist I am, and having done anomalistic psychology last term, I can say I do not believe in horoscopes and astrology. Next time you're going to read yours, read someone else's first and see if it'd fit you with where you are at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
