VIRGO 23 AUG - 22 SEP

Virgo Year
2003 OVERVIEW:
If you're holding gift certificates or
promissory notes, redeem them before January 18th. Others are more likely to
honor the holiday spirit while December is still a recent memory. After this,
you're the sole representative of higher ideals while everyone else submerges
back into the basics. Some people might fall in line with you once Saturn goes
direct on February 7th, but under the Aquarius Sun nonconformity is still a
major theme. While instability makes you uncomfortable, there's little you can
do about it for the next two months. Starting on the 19th, listen to your
intuition and try to enjoy yourself.
Your Spring fever is off to a raging start after Pluto retrogrades on March 20th and the Sun enters Aries on the 21st. You have all the facts and almost no patience. People are less likely to cooperate with someone acting like the ruler of the known universe. If you're sincere about this, determination gets you somewhere by the fourth week of April. You deserve a bit of royal treatment after all. Sibling rivalry flares around May 26th, thanks to a Lunar Eclipse and Saturn opposing Pluto. The limitations of anger and delay teach you a lot about yourself.
Summer sees a dramatic improvement in your personal life. People that have been painfully silent are talking again. Lingering health issues are resolved. Vacations taken in June, July or early August are stress-free times to reconnect with loved ones or revisit familiar places. The real excitement starts as the Sun enters Virgo and Pluto goes direct at the end of August. After five months of struggling to adequately express yourself, communication and creativity burst into full flower. Raise the curtain of illusion by mid-September, and sift through what has accumulated behind it since you last looked.
Now comes the season of gathering others into your perfect mix. Increased tolerance lets people study each other closely. Past behavior is reviewed, and potential is generously considered. Autumn is a time of powerful bonding as nature offers its harvest and begins shutting down or migrating. Late November tests your community's invincibility. The Moon is eclipsed on the 19th, Venus goes direct on the 21st and the Sun leaves Scorpio on the 23rd. Others find happiness or fulfillment and forget to share it with you. If the holidays seem disappointing this year, maybe your expectations were too high. Let the Winter Solstice light your flame again. Nothing ever really goes away.
