Virgo is the sixth sign of the zodiac: an earth sign associated with Mercury, from about August 23 to September 23. This page is a sun-sign magazine hub — traits, love, work, and friendship as entertainment, not a natal chart or a verdict on anyone’s life.

Virgo traits

Virgo energy is precision. The virgin would rather finish a job cleanly than leave a mess for later. That care can look like skill, or like fussiness. For more depth, read Virgo traits and Virgo personality. Virgo sits with Taurus and Capricorn as an earth sign.

Virgo in love

In romance, Virgo usually wants respect, order, and a partner they can actually trust. Feelings often run through the mind first. Start with Virgo in love, then Virgo woman or Virgo man traits if you want those portraits on their own.

Virgo at work

At work, Virgo often wants a task done properly, with a clear standard. They would rather be useful than theatrical. Virgo as a boss or coworker covers that side.

Virgo friendship and family

Friends are few and kept. Help shows up as practical care, not a crowd. See Virgo friendship, plus Virgo parents and Virgo child when that is the actual question.
