The Virgo Woman
The woman governed by Virgo cannot easily be won over. Her approach to life is direct and she can also be pessimistic, critical and something of a fusser. Yet, she is so elementally "earthy" in her judgments, that she is one of the few female types of the Zodiac who can be trusted in every way. This female frequently possesses the reasoning powers normally associated with the male population and she refuses to stoop to hiding this by adopting a veneer of helpless and feminine charm. Regardless, this woman is usually very feminine in appearance, generally being neat, small-boned and attractive. Beneath the surface, however, the Virgo female is quite severe in her moral judgments, despite frequently masking this with a smiling face that she presents to the world at large. This woman is by no means a spoil-sport...being tolerant and wise in many ways...but she does set such high standards for herself that she often virtually seethes with inner tension. Frequently intellectual with the gift of language or the powers of a retentive memory which aids her in passing examinations, the Virgo female is something of an academic type. All this can be rather intimidating and frightening for the ordinary individual. However, her countenance is certainly not lacking in attractive features and she can be counted among the more prettier types of the Zodiac. In addition, this woman can remain lively and vicacious well into old age. As a long term partner, she will constantly strive for perfection in every area, backing her mate in terms of career and putting her mate first while trying to be fairly self-effacing. As a mother, strangely enough, she can be relatively indulgent, taking infinite pains to understand her children. The Virgo woman is considered by many to be one of the most subtle and delicately-cast females to be found in the entire Zodiac.
A capable individual, the female ruled by Virgo will likely inhabit a spotless home. Ineed, she is a vigilant and efficient soul who can make most things run like a well-regulated machine. Still, her disposition often leaves something to be desired and perhaps her inherent need for routine proves in the end to be rather a strain. This is a woman who can easily become a fussy and nagging character who is fault-finding and overly-meticulous. In an emotional sense, the female governed by Virgo is frequently way below par. She responds to all the outward routines of life and meets traditional duties extraordinarily well...but she is rarely emotional and has a certain selfish coldness about her. This is a woman who is seldom too intense and takes life in a more-than-necessary practical fashion. The Virgo female believes that acceding to a partner's physical needs is base and probably below her dignity. A very clever individual who is deeply in love might possibly stand a chance of altering this frame of mind, but since the woman governed by this Sign rarely inspires such intensity of passion, her best hope is for a mate as restrained, practical and material as herself.
