Virgo Traits

The ascendant gives the purest expression of the decan’s energy since no planets will colour its expression. The ascendant is also the relationship axis, so it influence will play out mostly in how the subject relates to others.


Virgo Rising Decans

0º to 10º Virgo Decan 1 Rising* (Virgo Triplicity)

Because of their angelic nature, these natives tend to attract Plutonic partners who are quite devilish in nature. The purpose might just be to have these virtuous saints loosen their corsets. Nature always seeks a balance! Outwardly, it appears as though they are entangling themselves within one wrong relationship after another. Virgo decan 1’s will be very capable of dealing with the dark side. But this is the nub, they do have to be very self-aware. Innocence does them no favours. They need to learn that there ARE malicious, evil people out there.


10º to 20º Virgo Decan 2 Rising (Capricorn Triplicity)

Here, the polarity of ‘me’ versus ‘other’ can bring out some unexpected fanatical characteristics. The obsession is often projected onto the other person as if they are the neurotic stalker. Disillusioned and wounded by life, these folk may become reclusive. Virgo decan 2 people are more likely to self-harm through addictions, as they can simply not bear any more pain. However, they can also become abusers themselves. They are fantastic at pulling the veil over your eyes. A combination of their wounded look and some serious guilt-tripping can make you drop everything and rescue them in a thrice.

20º to 30º Virgo Decan 3 Rising  (Taurus Rising)

This decan is most famous for its ‘sacred harlot’ behavior. There is a strong emphasis on sexuality among these people, and some are very promiscuous or, in modern language, polyamorous. Those on the other end of the scale hold their intimate relationships as sacrosanct. Even though some are drawn to having many partners, they still expect exclusivity from their mate and are surprisingly possessive. They age well however, becoming more faithful and fair-minded towards their loved ones. They also keep sexually active well into their 80 and even 90s.
