Virgo Rising in the BirthChart

Virgo rising sign people show a primary stance more capable of adapting to changes and to different people in a more natural and spontaneous way. However, this predisposition may be accompanied by specific criticisms. In fact, Virgo's ability to criticize can be even more pronounced when this is the Rising sign. They can often criticize almost automatically, with no intention of being unpleasant. Because of this, it’s always good to try to be a little more sensitive, holding back a bit one’s desire to find mistakes.

This configuration is favorable for taking initiative in any kind of learning, especially that which requires a better grouping and conveyance of what has been learned. Being a bit of a neat freak and being concerned with a healthy lifestyle are other possible characteristics, so their attention can be constantly focused on their physical and mental health. They tend to be more discreet people at first sight, whereby – before exposing themselves – they observe every detail of where they are, so they can later feel more at ease. They can also be very accessible and pleasant, always available to those around them.

A bit more vulnerable when it comes to relationships, they can develop a pattern of attracting people who will drain their energy, requiring caution and analysis in this regard. They should always try to rid themselves of any negativity arising from feelings of imperfection, as well as serving others in a balanced way, since they have an innate tendency to attract (or be attracted to) people who need help.

Usually, they are always involved in something due to their natural restlessness and they can convey an image of being more withdrawn… an aura of purity. Their immediate perception of things can be accentuated and, hence, the ability to organize ideas, improve what they already know, and take notes on things brings about more vitality, making it easier to assimilate different concepts with a logical and practical understanding of what is necessary to have in order to manage each area of life. In other words, everything is seen through the lens of the organization; from their viewpoint, perhaps the means matter more than the ends.

Humility can also be a tendency and, accordingly, they must just take care not to demand too much from themselves, always being dissatisfied and insecure with their image. Such positioning may also be accompanied by the constant perception that having little is oftentimes having enough: why accumulate things, if excess weight only makes everything more tiring and confusing?

They can be the type of person who is more strongly guided toward discovering the usefulness that things and people have in their life, having an appreciation for solving puzzles, being susceptible to criticism, and getting hurt a little more easily. They may have a greater ability to pay attention to details that other people overlook. Finding faults in anything (or anyone) tends to be an automatic attitude, but always with the aim of improving. They often keep such opinions to themselves.

This more critical initial stance can lead them to set the bar high for themselves. Self-criticism and personal demands can also be strong, so they can be great people to relate to or be with, because they always want to better themselves. The problem with relationships is that they also expect a lot from their partners, who may never be good enough to live up to their standards.

A good tip is to learn to digest any failure – whether their own or someone else’s – understanding it without bitterness, regret, rancor or resentment. After all, making mistakes is human; it’s part of all of us. To evolve, we must always learn from our mistakes.

Curiosity and organization

A certain contradiction in their modus operandi can make them totally organized and mindful of details in some areas of life, but, at the same time, disorganized in others. Virgos are ruled by Mercury, the planet of communication and mental processes. Therefore, they can be extremely talkative (and prone to gossip if there are no factors that stifle such conditions). They can be good salespeople, very efficient negotiators, and avid travelers. They like to keep themselves busy and useful, so doing nothing can cause them to get nervous or irritated.
Regarding heal

h, they are usually sensitive to any discomfort or other signs that their body gives them. Many may be interested and concerned about physical health, as well as being attracted to exercises that raise awareness of body and mind, e.g., yoga. If the position of the Sun or Moon is in water signs (Cancer, Scorpio or Pisces) or in Capricorn (who tends to worry excessively), there may be a tendency to care excessively about health, even reaching the level of hypochondria. A proper diet is another important aspect, so some are fussy about food. Even though they have a good appetite, they can be critical of the quality of the food they put into their bodies.
