Sun In Virgo

The pursuit of perfection is strong with the Sun in the sign of Virgo. Intelligence is your strength! Health and wellness may be quite important to you. Also, you may have the natural ability to analyze and organize large amounts of information. In addition, you may be very detail-oriented. Creating structure could be your hidden superpower! However, you may tend to be critical of yourself and those around you. Therefore, your heroic journey to your authentic self involves learning to validate yourself–even though you are not always perfect.

Astrology of Virgo:

Ruled by the planet Mercury, Virgo is an Earth sign that symbolizes practicality and order. In astrology, Mercury is the messenger. When you fully own the power of Mercury, you are able to clearly share your ideas with others. If you are not using the power of Mercury in a constructive way, you may find it difficult to think and speak for yourself.

Symbolized by the maiden, Virgo embodies the concepts of purity of purpose, fertility, and service to others. Therefore, Sun in Virgo symbolizes the qualities of humility, diligence, and modesty. Moreover, you set high standards of conduct for yourself. You may gain a greater sense of self-awareness from helping others in practical ways.

Like the other astrological signs, you can be functional or dysfunctional in the expression of your Virgo qualities. There are certain qualities or abilities that can come easily to you when you are functioning at your best as a Virgo. These are your “superpowers”. However,  a lack of balance can lead to behavior that prevents you from being your best.  These habits–much like “kryptonite”–can limit your potential.

Virgo Superpowers

  • When in balance, Sun in Virgo can be incredibly efficient! Planning and organizing may be some of your strengths. Putting structure in place is one of your superpowers.
  • Problem solving may come easily to you! Finding solutions and implementing them is one of your strengths.
  • In addition, a strong work ethic may come naturally to you. Always striving for perfection, your attention to detail is unmatched.
  • Your communication or writing abilities may be quite strong!
  • Maintaining your physical well-being may be important to you. Vitamins, supplements, and herbs could be an important part of your daily routine. Similarly, this interest in mind/body health may also lead you to work in some way as a healer.
  •  You are at your absolute best when helping others. Being of service to others is one of the purposes of your Soul.

Virgo Kryptonite

  • Worry, worry, worry! When out of balance, Virgo is likely to suffer from anxiety.
  • Don’t lose sight of the bigger picture! Focusing too much on details can make you less effective.
  • Your quest for perfection could lead you to feel that you are never good enough.
  •  If out of balance as a Virgo, you may be hypercritical of yourself and those around you. Consequently, this could create emotional distance between you and those that you love.
  • Neglecting yourself in your efforts to help others could lead to feelings of resentment.
  • Being in a messy or disorganized environment could be draining for you.
  • In addition, your attention to your physical health can be taken to an extreme. Overanalyzing every physical discomfort could lead to obsessive worry.

 

Virgo Life Lessons

  • When being of service to others, make sure that you are giving from a loving space. Take time to recharge your energy and care for yourself. Then, what you give to others will come from a deep and meaningful place.
  • Give yourself permission to be imperfect!  Your flaws do not decrease your worth and value as a magnificent being.
  • Speak lovingly to yourself! Then, it will then be easier for you to speak lovingly to others.  Even if  your high expectations are not met, always honor the efforts of those around you.
  • Instead of worrying about everything that could go wrong, affirm that you trust in your ability to handle challenges. Affirm: “I trust in the wisdom of Divine unfoldment, and I am capable of calmly handling any challenge that comes to me.”
