Now sometimes, we’re not too sure just how right-on these astrological profiles are. I mean, consider Virgo, your intrepid author’s sign. Virgos are universally considered to be very buttoned-down, methodical and detail-oriented. Geesh. Meticulous and reliable. I have to wonder if my mother didn’t lie about my birth date. I’m about as flaky and they come and as far as methodical is concerned, I never do anything the same way twice. Anyway, for you archetypical Virgos, here’s your profile, according to the experts. Now intelligent and analytical, we can agree with.

It does say that we’re shy and can be difficult to land as a partner. Maybe that’s why we’re writing this on a Saturday night when all those Aquarius and Pisces are out there living it up. The best match for Virgo is Capricorn and the worst is Aquarius. One thing some experts say about the Virgo is that while they appear cool and aloof on the outside, they may be hiding emotion that is almost too intense. We’re so grateful someone recognizes this that we may have to briefly disappear and weep in a corner somewhere for a few minutes. 

In the expansive and broad-minded sign of Sagittarius, the Moon takes on a special radiance and shine that is distinct from other moon signs. Sagittarius is the astrological sign of long journeys and higher education. Here, the Moon urges a more active mode of existence. If your Moon is in Sagittarius, you are recognized for your sharp, incisive mind, excellent insights, and ability to get things done in a jiffy.

Your clear-thinking mind examines sensory information swiftly and with alarming efficacy. You are the sort of individual who envisions large goals and then sets about accomplishing them undeterred by the scope of the task. You seldom heed advice about potential pitfalls and drawbacks, nor wait to see if a plan is unrealistic or untenable. With optimism and enthusiasm, you race in and normally succeed in what you set out to do. With a Moon in Sagittarius, there is a lofty vision, and an ability to see farther than people with the Moon in other signs.

Venus-Leos are able to effortlessly draw warm responses from others. There is something so fascinating, so irresistibly attractive, about you that you enjoy fabulous acclaim. You are exceedingly loving and charitable, purchasing costly gifts for those you cherish and adore them to the skies in the presence of other people. Of course, what you need in return is a strong commitment, loyalty, and loads of attention.

You must constantly be assertive in a love affair. “All the world’s a stage” was penned about your passionate nature. No one can make a fuss or confrontation as exciting as a Venus-Leo. Needless to say, you are attracted to the business of performance, and many of you are endowed with splendid artistic faculties. You also love dainty possessions—property, garments, gems, furs. Though self-indulgent and pleasure-seeking, you are able of making vast self-sacrifice for the comfort of someone else.

While Mars is in Libra, the energy of this planet appears to alternate. You are changeable and sensual in your sexuality. A great abundance of your force is spent developing emotional connections. Yet you possess a listless attitude toward sex and frequently must be sought after rather than act as the pursuer.

You are utopian and aesthetic; crudeness of any sort turns you off. You fancy relationships with cultivated, mature lovers, but tend to grow connected in troubled hookups. This placement of Mars is great for a different artistic or literary genius. There is great elegance and discretion in your work. You have a desirable ability to make a pleasant impact on the populace. Mars-Librans believe deeply in fair play. Your efforts are always prefaced by a careful evaluating of the pros and cons.

If you were born in the year 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991 or 2003 then you are a Goat. You’re elegant and creative, somewhat timid and prefer anonymity. You are most compatible with Pigs and Rabbits, but don’t mix it up with the Ox.
