How to Treat your Virgo

Your Virgo is an Earth Angel, a swift, intelligent Mercury without wings, a dynamically aware work-force. She notices everything. He is hyper-awake. Virgo, though unassuming, kind and shy, is one of the strongest signs in the Zodiac. This is intelligent earthiness - discerning practicality - a strong yet gentle kindness and nurturing born of sheer common sense. Your Virgo strives to be a model of perfection. She loves to please you! He is driven to impress you with his talent for making the most out of the best! Mercury's other child, Gemini, is a much more lighthearted, air-born spirit. While Gemini is busy gathering so much knowledge, Virgo insists on action and wants to know what will be done with the information at hand. The question is always - "of what practical use is this?" A master at taking things apart and analyzing them - Virgo always finds room for improvement. So how can you possibly impress one who sees and knows so much? How can you hide your imperfections? What will you do when YOU are the object of her keen observation? You must be a strong spirit to be with Virgo - both hard working and emotionally tough. You will be happiest with your Virgo if you are one who appreciates purity, discernment and a logical mind; and spurns the superfluous. Feed your Virgo with uncluttered surroundings, a practical, frugal budget and pure, beautiful speech. Make healthful foods a priority. Take the trash out often. Iron your clothes. Ask your Virgo for help - Virgo lives to serve! Remind your Virgo how much you appreciate his careful choices. Tell her how impressed you are with her impeccable taste and well thought out advice. Make her a part of your life-improvement team! You will be rewarded with an eternal help-mate, and a devoted, down-to-earth, sensual, soft-hearted, compassionate lover.

How to Treat your Libra

Your lovely Libra man or maiden longs to walk side by side with you through life. "Alone" is not in Libra's bountiful vocabulary, nor is "lonely." A life of solitude is just not acceptible, and if your Libra does not feel sufficiently loved, you're sure to hear about it one way or another. If she doesn't find you sitting lovestruck by her side, she'll be fluttering her lashes at the nearest handsome beau, or lavishing gifts upon herself to feel sufficiently adored. If he finds you unattentive or yawning at his words, he will undoubtedly start flirting with the nearest skirt! Libra is a child of Venus, and will not hesitate to use all the charms the goddess of love possesses in order to get what she wants. Beauty, grace, wit, style and all the wiles of a temptress or temptor are at your Libra's command. How can you possibly hold onto such a romantic creature? First of all, you must be fair with your Libra. She is highly aware of balance and harmony in all things and can detect the slightest hint of inequity. And be open - your Libra is so focused on YOU that he can surely read your mind anyway. It's especially helpful, too, if you are appreciative of all things beautiful - music, art and people - (especially your Venusian Prince or Princess!). Or if art doesn't grab you, your mind must be active and entertaining enough to keep your Libra interested in everything you have to say. Then again, if you are a terrific lover, you can forget about the rest! The bottom line is, feed your Libra's insatiable need for beauty, love and partnership and you're home free. You can get away with criticism if it's done with a hilarious sense of humor. You can get away with flirting if you flirt doubly (make that triply) with your Libra. And you can get away with boredom if you lavish your Libra with anything pleasing to the senses. It's as simple as that! Help your Libra with making decisions. Participate in his schemes. Make loving suggestions while she is decorating or dressing. But most of all, make sure your Libra feels adored - and you will be rewarded with one of the most charming, generous, beautiful, handsome, intelligent, witty and doting mates the Zodiac has to offer!

The Hermit in the Tarot

Virgo is associated with the Hermit in Tarot ~ Following the Light ~ The Hermit travels alone through life. He is either oblivious to, or doesn't concern himself with how others perceive him. This one is a light unto his own. The Hermit follows a distinct inner vision. He has a sure and well defined path to follow. This soul knows exactly where he is headed and possibly even what he will find there - and he doesn't necessarily need any companions, or even approval - except perhaps from whomever or whatever he holds highest in his heart. In my favorite Tarot book, (which I can't find -!!), the author defines the hermit as one who follows the "straight and narrow path" This is my preferred way of reading this card. Chances are - unless the Hermit falls between two very ominous cards - the path the Hermit chooses is the highest and most clear-visioned path one is capable of. In other words... although perhaps unyielding to outside influence, the Hermit doesn't hurt people, lie or make a mess of things. He proceeds through life's challenges with great focus, and the purest of intentions. Sometimes the Hermit represents you, and sometimes another person serving as a Guide for you. Unlike the Heirophant or Priestess, though - this is a guide who is willing to stand well outside of the usual boundaries - apart from tradition or conformity, and quietly lead the way. In a much simpler context, perhaps the Hermit portrays a situation in which you are completely on your own. There is no partner, nobody to consult with. This is your life - and you must do what you must do! A lonely guy or gal? Perhaps - but we all need solitude sometimes, and sometimes even for a long time. And in the grand scheme of things, except for that guiding light of Love we all hold so dear - we are each indeed - all alone. In yet another scenario (again assuming that surrounding cards support this) - the Hermit can indicate that things are going along as planned. The scenario you are concerned with remains aligned with your wishes and your ultimate goals. On a very personal level, this card asks you - what exactly is your path? What light are you following? Is it your own, or something pre-designed by society? In all likelihood, it is a combination of both - but whatever it may be - it is certainly your own, and you alone are responsible for your choices....
