Purifying life: Understanding the personality traits of a Virgo

virgo personality traits

Well, you certainly haven’t come here to sit down and watch the world go by. Virgo, a large part of your energy is geared towards utilising your skills and talents out in the world. You want to be of use. You have likely always felt this internal push to maximising the self, to self-actualising your potential. You have a strong sense of your capabilities and can see the potentialities in others also.

You are The Sign of self-growth and while you would naturally do a lot of self-analysis, working on your own patterning (and way more of this work than most of us) you may often feel a sense of how much room you still have to grow. Observe your expectations of self, do they feel enlivening and exciting or stifling?

Part of your genius lay in your ability to purify and systematise all that comes into your world.

All the cliché’s ring true, the to-do lists, the ability and need to organise your internal and external worlds. You see ways of doing things that most of us do not. Again, it’s like you see everything in its raw potential form and you know how to streamline it to get the most out of it.

So, what is your magic and how are you manifesting it into your world? How are you applying your inherent gifts and your purifying lens into your reality? Your sign is ruled by the Earth version of Mercury so your perspectives are part of your magic. And that inherent drive to maximise the self, it isn’t going anywhere. You can absolutely mould it to work for you as a motivating force to take action and chip away at your craft. If you find you are overly ‘busy’ and feeling stressed and overwhelmed then something needs to give, bring more intentionality into your schedule. You have the ability to be extremely productive in whatever you apply yourself too, if you find you are too far into analysis, shift it back into clear productivity and write down what your magic formula is, the ways in which you work best.

 

HEALING BALM

Pisces, your opposing sign, delivers a transcendental antidote to the aspect of Virgo that is always pushing towards the ideal self. This aspect can deny who you are right now, in favour of loving the future, perfect, successful you. And that antidote is the present moment. In the present moment there is endless possibility, there is infinity, there is you, perfect and whole as you are in the here and now. What practices can you incorporate to spend more time in the boundless now versus in the future projection? Tap out to tap in.
