As you might have guessed by now, yes I’m a Virgo. Can’t you tell?
You are a Virgo if you were born between August 23rd and September 22nd, and your opposite sign is Pisces.
The sign of Virgo is associated with purity and service. Individuals born under this sign are thought to have a diligent, analytical, self-sufficient, controlled, orderly, and modest character but one which is also prone to fussiness, and perfectionism. In terms of anatomy, Virgo is said to rule the abdominal region, large and small intestines, spleen, solar plexus, lower lobes of the liver, pancreas, portal veins, umbilicus, hands, nails, and carpal bones.
Great – my abdominal region rules me? Who would’a guessed that one? LOL
I’m not going to tag anyone for this meme, but if you decide to do it let me know and I’ll link to you. (first five only please).
Hey, I’m a Virgo too! My birthday is the 7th and I definitely am fussy and strive for perfection. The really funny thing that people don’t understand is that while we expect perfection in ourselves we do not expect it in others.
