Virgo 2014. Dadhichi Toth

children demand vigilant parental care to help them assume control instead of falling apart. They thrive best in an environment of comfort and security where they can contentedly seek perfection and hone their self-confidence. Having them engaged in ample activities helps keep boredom and other psychological problems at bay.

      As a parent, it’s crucial that you provide your little one with the guidance to seek pleasure through contentment rather than perfection. Never interpret their silence as a sign of things going well. Instead, it’s a result of not being able to articulate the weight of the thoughts that are on their mind. Encourage them to voice their feelings from an early age. This will help them immensely later in life. At the same time, the influence of Mercury can make them happy chatterboxes. Try to partake of their discussions and instil in them a strong sense of self-confidence about their thought processes.

      Brace yourself for their astronomical curiosity levels and relentless stream of questions. In their pursuit for answers, they arm themselves with books and general knowledge for those questions that are totally out of your league! In spite of this, your Virgo child promises a lot of fun and mentally stimulating challenges.

      Finally, Virgo children work optimally in a neat and tidy environment. They’re assiduous workers and may place stress on themselves when it comes to school work. As a parent, it would be beneficial to help them maintain an organised diary to mitigate the stress they experience under these circumstances.

VIRGO LOVER

      “A MAN BEGINS CUTTING HIS WISDOM TEETH THE FIRST TIME HE BITES OFF MORE THAN HE CAN CHEW.”

      HERB CAEN

      If you’re a guy who is trying to woo a Virgo love interest, you might be disappointed by this chapter. This woman doesn’t plunge into romantic situations at the pace you would like her to. If you’re looking for fast love, the Virgo girl is definitely not for you.

       A Cautious Lover

      The Virgo woman is more practical than sexual, but this doesn’t mean that she is passionless. The Virgo female moves rather cautiously, and she is slow to unfasten the grip on her heart before handing it over to a deserving partner.

      Unfortunately, when it comes to matters of love, Virgos can be rather detached and analytical in fathoming others as well as their own feelings. They often end up scrutinising people, and a potential partner would need to be on their best behavior to impress Virgo. Are you up to the task?

      Virgo, the Virgin, embodies deep passion and selfless love, and this is what they bring to a relationship. The question is: Are you patient enough to wait?

      When it comes to lovemaking, Virgos are playful, passionate and intensely curious, but only under the right circumstances. Another asset is their intense loyalty. Virgo, after all, is one of the most devoted of the star signs. Once they commit themselves to a relationship, that commitment remains steadfast, even in the face of the most excruciating setbacks.

      It’s not easy for them to let go of a relationship, especially if they have invested time, intensity and loyalty. They are as prudent in relationships as they are in matters of finance. At the cost of sounding mercenary, it’s crucial to understand that prudence forms the cornerstone of their approach to all aspects of life.

      Don’t be duped by the bashful exterior of a Virgo lover. Mercury, their ruler, is hot by nature, and once you succeed at garnering their trust, the passion they unleash in the bedroom is sure to leave you spellbound.

      If you want a relationship with Virgo, you need to charm them in a manner that enthralls and fascinates them.

      Because their Mercurial mind is in constant flux, they desire variety and intellectual stimulation. If you’re a slothful couch potato who is uncommunicative and addicted to TV, Virgo is most definitely not your type. Communication, expression and free-flowing dialogue are the bedrock for a successful relationship with those born under this sign.

VIRGO FRIEND

      In matters of friendship, consider yourself blessed if you have a Virgo in your circle of friends. Their compassion, faithfulness and concern for your wellbeing are just a few of Virgo’s most beautiful qualities. At the same time, it’s not a one way street. They expect some measure of reciprocation for their selfless dedication. Yes, they’re unconditional in their love and care, but it’s nice to be loved back, isn’t it?

      PROBLEM SOLVER!

       Virgos offer the best support in times of chaos. They’re experts at breaking down issues and offering simple, easy solutions—without tainting them with their own bias or prejudice.

      Virgos can be quite vocal in expressing their opinions, especially if their judgment is solicited. While they are generous in accommodating faults, they’re blunt in pointing out someone’s shortcomings. Due to their intrinsic desire for perfection, they’re profusely critical and leave others flabbergasted at the candour with which they expose others.

      As you can deduce from my description of your Virgo friend, truth is a double-edged sword—for both of you. They may appear distant and emotionally hesitant on occasions, but it’s their way of preventing their emotions from being sullied by circumstances. To them, being transparent, honest and unaffected by superfluous issues is important when it comes to drawing conclusions.

      In friendships they are guarded until comfortable, and they accommodate all viewpoints, even those that stand in contrast with their own. They can easily adapt to an eclectic mix of people and are a lot of fun. Due to the swift movement of Mercury, relaxed Virgos can be humorous, easygoing and cheerful.

      In matters of money, don’t even attempt to take liberties with your Virgo friend. They see through pretence and smell a rat quicker than you can imagine. They only understand fairness, and if they don’t confront you with your scheming ways, their solution is to silently disappear from your life. Don’t let this happen, as it would be a shame to lose such a trusted ally.

VIRGO ENEMY

      “STAND UP TO YOUR OBSTACLES AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT THEM. YOU WILL FIND THAT THEY HAVEN’T HALF THE STRENGTH YOU THINK THEY HAVE.”

      NORMAN VINCENT PEALE

      Virgo enemies don’t like to make a public spectacle of their feelings towards you. Although exceedingly sharp and communicative, they prefer to repress the negativity and drift away silently.

      Before they disappear from your life forever, pay attention to when they start to appear diffident and reserved in your presence. ‘Shutdown mode’ is usually the first sign that Virgo is becoming your enemy. If you find yourself in this situation, it might be a good idea to reflect on your honesty and faithfulness towards them. Have you slighted them in any way? Remember, Virgo will not put up with disrespect in any form.

      If you’ve incurred their wrath, they’ll voice their opinion and strip you down to your bare bones. Virgos can be rather vehement when it comes to speaking their mind. If you want to reconcile with them, a sincere apology with candid communication is the first step.
