Not A Virgo
Well, it's been determined. I am not a Virgo, therefore September 14 cannot be my birthday and therefore I am older or younger than I really am...preferably older. Psh...the reason is...I match none of the aspects of a Virgo. Of course, as I quote Hermione, quoting McGonagal, "Divination is the most imprecise magic there is." Or something around there. Erm...well, here is my proof, from Astrology-Online.com. You tell me how much that sounds like me. Keep in mind that I'm weird, can be loud, and have a ridiculously messy room. The sex thing is just funny. *snort*
Virgo is the only zodiacal sign represented by a female.
Good It is sometimes thought of as a potentially creative girl
Thank you, delicately lovely
Again, thank you; sometimes as a somewhat older woman, intelligent but rather pedantic and spinsterish
lol! Well! I never... The latter impression is sometimes confirmed by the Virgoan
Is that even a word?!? preciseness, refinement, fastidious love of cleanliness, hygiene and good order, conventionality and aristocratic attitude of reserve.
Gee...out of all that, I'm willing to bet that the only thing that applies to me here is good hygiene, though I may not be adverse to the last two things They are usually observant
sometimes, shrewd
Not that i know of, critically inclined
Say what?, judicious
Again...no., patient
Nope, practical supporters of the status quo
I do not like, or support the status quo, thank you very much and I'm not really all that pratical either., and tend toward conservatism in all departments of life
So what planet did I come from?. On the surface they are emotionally cold
Well, I see someone doesn't seem to like me much..., and sometimes this goes deeper, for their habit of suppressing their natural kindness
I suppress my natural kindness?!? Since when? Exactly! may in the end cause it to atrophy, with the result that they shrink from committing themselves to friendship, make few relationships, and those they do make they are careful to keep superficial.
Thanks, I feel soooo much better now. Really needed that ego boost
But the outward lack of feeling
Lack of feeling? I'm not showing a lack of feeling now! may, in some individuals born under this sign, conceal too much emotion
A little bit, I mostly show my emotions...which makes me the way I am., to which they are afraid of giving way because they do not trust others
Huh...sometimes., nor do they have confidence in themselves and their judgments
Psh, wrong there, I have TOO much confidence in myself and my judgements.. This is because they are conscious of certain shortcomings in themselves of worldliness, of practicality
But it just said before that I was practical! How does a pratical person feel they're not practical enough?!?, of sophistication
I'm not a big fan of that either and of outgoingness
I feel I'm outgoing enough...well, mostly. So they bring the art of self concealment to a high pitch, hiding their apprehensiveness about themselves and their often considerable sympathy with other people under a mantle of matter-of-factness and undemonstrative, quiet reserve.
Nope They are still waters that run deep. Yet in their unassuming, outwardly cheerful and agreeable fashion, they can be sensible, discreet, well spoken, wise and witty, with a good understanding of other people's problems which they can tackle with a practicality not always evident in their own personal relationships.
Finally! Something that's more me....though...I'm never discreet, or all that sensible....probably not wise either....
Both sexes have considerable charm and dignity, which make some male Virgoans appear effeminate
I swear this thing has more words I don't understand than anything I've ever read when they are not. In marriage they can be genuinely affectionate, making good spouses and parents
In the end, I still like kids., but their love making is a perfection of technique rather than the expression of desire, and they must be careful not to mate with a partner whose sex drive requires a passion they cannot match.
LOL! That was the funniest part....Ok... In other words, don't sleep around! Eh...not like I would anyway. lol...
They are intellectually enquiring
Hey! That explains the whole Polyjuice Potion thing!, methodical and logical
Er...I am?, studious
Like heck, I am.. and teachable
Shouldn't everyone be?. They combine mental ingenuity with the ability to produce a clear analysis of the most complicated problems
Now, if I could only REALLY do that. They have an excellent eye for detail but they may be so meticulous that they neglect larger issues
lol, wasn't I, the one who said I don't pay attention to other things?. Also, although they are realists
Yup, like the whole plastic flower melting thing, they may slow down projects by being too exact
I'd rather get a project over with than care whther it was exact or not. Of course, when writing...I feel like a perfectionist...maybe I am some sort of Virgo after all.... They are practical with their hands
Would you stop with the practicality already! Besides, I can't do much with my hands..., good technicians
Er...ok..? and have genuine inventive talents
Look! I can finally claim something else!, Thoroughness, hard work and conscientiousness are their hallmarks, and they are such perfectionists that, if things go wrong, they are easily discouraged
Hey! That's true! Like when I write something I spent a lot of time on it, and no one leaves me a comment, I feel bad.... Because of their ability to see every angle of a many-sided question
I can do that too, they are unhappy with abstract theorizing
But I love theories! If not, Dumbledore won't be evil anymore!. Appreciating the many different points of view as they do, they find philosophical concepts difficult
But I LIKE philosphy!, and they vacillate and have no confidence in any conclusions at which they arrive
Ok, yeah, that's not entirely wrong.
With these qualities, they are better as subordinates than leaders.
True...I don't like ordering people around (well, sometimes...) and I don't like being ordered around Responsibility irks them
lol! and they often lack the breadth of strategic vision
Excuse me, I just don't lead. that a leader needs Virgoans are essentially tacticians, admirable in the attainment of limited objectives
Good for me.. Their self distrust is something they project on to other people and tends to make them exacting employers, though in the demands they make on those under them they temper this attitude with justice
Good to know I'm fair. They have potential abilities in the arts, sciences and languages
Those were always subjects that my highest marks are in. Language especially they use correctly, clearly, consciously and formally
OMG! Look! See? That explains my need to be grammariticly correct!, as grammarians and etymologists rather than for literary interests
Well, not really, I like literature, it's more fun than grammar, though grammar is part of literature..., yet they are likely to have a good memory for apt quotations
Well, I like quotes.... Although they are well suited for careers in machine drawing, surveying and similar occupations, they are better fitted for a job in a library or office than a workshop.
Good. That's where I'd rather be anyway.
Their minds are such that they need the stimulus of practical problems to be solved rather than the mere routine or working to set specifications that need no thought
Well, seeing as I don't like being bored and the fact that I think rather complicatedly, I would say this is correct...but PLEASE, stop tith the pratical stuff! It's getting on my nerves.... They are careful with money
Erm...riight... and their interest in statistics
I'm not so sure about that... makes them excellent bookkeepers and accountants
Did I ever mention I suck at math?. They also make good editors
Yay!, physicists and analytical chemists. They may also find success as welfare workers
Good, I once wanted to be one of those...aka Social workers, ministering to those less fortunate than themselves. They can be doctors, nurses, psychologists, teachers, confidential secretaries
Right there, a list of things I wanted to do, technologists, inspectors, musicians, critics, public speakers and writers especially of reference works such as dictionaries and encyclopedias
No thanks, though I can speak in a formal, and grown-up way, I prefer fiction.. Both sexes have a deep interest in history
cool, I do!, a feature recognized by astrological authorities for at least two hundred years. If they go in for a business career their shrewdness and analytical ingenuity could tempt them into dishonesty
lol, too late., though they usually have enough moral sense to resist temptation. Female Virgoans may find a career in fashion, for they have a flair for dress, in which they can be trend setters
Interesting...I did at one point think about being a fashion designer, but, I can draw clothes not sew or anything of the like.. In any profession they choose the natives of this sign readily assimilate new ideas, but always with caution, conserving what they consider worth keeping from the past
Well, I guess I can be prepared.... They love country life
Not really...I prefer to live in a town, not a city though. but are unlikely to make good farmers
I didn't think so either., unless they can contrive to carry out their work without outraging their sense of hygiene and cleanliness.
Actually, come to think of it, I feel uncomfortable in dirty places. I don't like sitting in the inside when seated at booths...there's just something icky about it...
Their faults, as is usual with all zodiacal types, are the extremes of their virtues. Fastidious reticence and modesty become old-maidishness and persnicketiness; balanced criticism becomes carping and nagging; and concern for detail becomes overspecialization
Hmm...well, that's not how I am. *shudders* I refuse to appear Old maid-ish ever.. Virgoans are liable to indecision in wider issues
Even in narrow issues, I'm indecisive and this can become chronic, turning molehills of minor difficulties into Himalayas of crisis
I don't make a big deal out of things. If I did, I wouldn't be sitting here, commentating on this.. Their prudence can become guile and their carefulness, turned in on themselves, can produce worriers and hypochondriacs.
Well, thank fully, I am the person who rarely worries. =)
Virgo is said to govern the hands, abdomen, intestines, spleen and central nervous system. Illnesses to which its natives are prone include catarrh, cold, coughs, pleurisies, pneumonia and nervous instabilities. Their natures make them inclined to worry and this makes them vulnerable to stomach and bowel troubles, including colic and ulcers. Male Virgoans may have trouble with their sexual organs. Both sexes are strongly interested in drugs and esoteric cuisine and as their delicate stomachs require them to be careful about their diet, it is essential that they treat their fascination with exotic food with extreme care.
First of all, I am NOT interested in drugs, they only constant drug I put in myself in CHILDREN'S Tempra, which relieves my headaches. Anyhow, I think maybe the stomach thing is true, when I'm sick, I feel more inclined to throw up even though the illness has nothing to do with the stomach.
And that was basically it. *sigh* I'm not much of a Virgo as I've said.
