Virgo Women:

Virgo is an earth sign and for that reason is concerned with bringing things to completion and with practical matters. The ability to analyze and compare are highly developed in Virgo. The Virgo woman has a discriminative intellect that enables her to analyze herself and discover her true sense of security. She may tend to see all the little flaws and faults in the women around her, but she is also her own hardest critic. In fact, she can be a perfectionist about herself, driving herself too hard. Virgo can be overly conscientious and guilt-ridden to the point where it actually takes a toll of her health.

The Virgo woman has a strong desire to be of service and to do something worthwhile with her life. Even though she does not approach others with great emotional affection, she has a strong need to help people in trouble. This tendency often directs her to helping professions such as counseling or medicine. At the same time, she often has a very well developed business ability and usually keeps her financial affairs in good order. When the Virgo woman does not succeed in her work it is often the result of a gnawing sense of worthlessness. There is no objective basis for this feeling; it simply stems from her overly perfectionist nature.

In a love relationship, the Virgo woman may carry the need to be of service in the world into wanting to help her partner, often at her own expense. The Virgo woman often puts her needs behind those of her partner, and the problem that can arise is that the Virgo woman may begin to resent this inequality, even though she herself set it up. Another tendency is for this woman to be very critical of her partner and to expect a lot from her. She may continually be measuring her partner against some idea. Obviously, after a while, the other woman will begin to resent this criticism. When the Virgo woman can see through this judgmental tendency, she can turn her need to be of service toward being a concerned, giving and openly loving partner.
