Virgo (August 24-September 23)
You make a living by what you earn; you make a life by what you give.
Symbol - The Ram
Represents male fertility, aggression, determination, and courage. A ram’s horn is part of a cornucopia, the “horn of plenty”, symbolizing abundance. Thought to approach life “head-on” and who puts everything it’s got into the fight or challenge of the moment. Unafraid to take initiative and be a leader which in turn inspires others to act the same. These horns, which rest upon the head, represent our mental faculties tell us that we need to stimulate our brains and put energy into our own mental evolution. We must constantly fuel our imagination and curiosity.
Polarity - Yang
Reflects positive, active or masculine principle. Relates to movement, light, and therefore is related to all that suggests these aspects such as the sun, the color red, a strong voice, stress, wakefulness, life, fire, the noise, and the summer. Yang is more aggressive and intrusive. Yang is better suited to work outside the organization such as networking, promoting etc. Yang reflects openness, clear, light, loner, and individualistic aspects.
Element - Fire
Highly active, self-motivated, animated force, self-sufficient, and spontaneous. Can come across rather forcefully. Bluntly honest, lack of self-control and hungry for immediate gratification. Tend to have dominant and larger-than-life attitudes. Impulsive by nature and they strive to achieve success or fame. Intuitive and to rely on gut-level instincts. Tendency to skip crucial steps or to be unaware of the emotional impact of their actions. Selfishness and an overdeveloped ego is part of their shadowy side.
Quality - Cardinal
Start each of the four Solar Seasons. Initiators of the zodiac so there is a tendency to begin but not always finish things. Possess a drive, ambition, and zest for life that is unmatched. Highly original and likes to be first in everything they do. Natural born leaders and tend to be outgoing because they’re engaged with the world in a dynamic way. Often plan ahead and are well managed to create a blue print toward their future. Negative aspects include hastiness, being inconsiderate, and dominating.
Ruling Planet - Mars
Roman god of war. The planet of energy, action, desire, forcefulness and aggression. With Mars, there is no contemplation before action. It is the survival instinct, and can be thought of as the “leftover” animal nature of man. Rules our sexuality and sexual energy and are associated with basic body attraction. The drive associated with Mars differs from that of the Sun in that it is self-assertion rather than assertion of the will; it is raw energy rather than creative energy. Governs weapons, accidents and surgery. Takes roughly two years to completely orbit around the earth.
Gemstone - Diamond
Symbol of wealth, accumulation and the manifestation of abundance. The fact it must be cut to reveal its beauty compares to the inner, spiritual beauty of the human being. Helps the mind to detach itself from the unwanted and unnecessary thoughts, bringing mental clarity to where it is most needed. Conductors and amplifiers of energy, absorbing thoughts and feelings then radiating them outward, while cleansing your energetic obstacles. Its connection to planet Mars derives from a warriors’ custom of wearing diamond stones in battle for protection and strength.
Color - Red

Tarot- The Emperor
Represents a male archetypal energy who is on a stone throne embellished with rams. His white beard represents experience, while his armor is a sign of the inevitable battle to come. Number 4 represents authority and established thoughts and ways. Reminds us that, “Anything worth having is worth fighting for!” The ball in the Emperor’s right hand represents the world, or more specifically his role as the ruler of people. The red robe and vibrant sunrise support the theme of fire. The color red inspires initiative and taking action.
