Virgo (Born August 23 to September 2) – 0 to 10 degrees Virgo: 

2008: Virgo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends

2008 Overview. A beautiful trend with you in 2008 occurs in the “life departments” of romance, creative pursuits, children, and recreation. Virgos are learning to let their hair down and have some serious fun this year! Getting your life completely on track is also a strong theme, but you are able to find a healthy balance between work and play. For some of you, working with a romantic partner could figure. With Saturn in your sign, increased responsibilities are likely. However, you tend to handle Saturn transits better than many signs, and although you could feel some pressure, you are always willing to work all the harder to meet your new responsibilities. Your love life has been erratic for some time, and this trend does continue. However, this year, you are more likely to have fun with it. You could find that you invest in real estate this year, or bring a more playful environment to your home. Speculation, as long as it’s reasonable, may prove worthwhile. Your creativity is stronger than usual this year, and children can figure prominently in your life. The strongest month for money is September 2008.

2008 Details. Jupiter is  moving through your solar fifth house all year. You are bound to experience your fair share of fun, romance, and good times. Creative projects are likely to fare well, and could possibly even bring some type of recognition or reward. Love and romance may enter your life or is enhanced with good humor and warmth, and social engagements abound. For singles, meeting a special person is highly likely, although it is unlikely to lead to a long-term relationship or coupling. Investments in stocks and other speculative matters could earn nice profits, although care should be exercised with any dealings that tie you to other people and others’ money. Healthy risks are likely to pay off, but be careful of overconfidence in speculative investments. Relationships with your children may be especially fulfilling now. Pregnancy or childbirth may occur during this period, if applicable. This is a fabulous period in which to take a vacation you’ve always wanted to take. Those with artistic or athletic talent can be especially prolific and prosperous at this time. Your creativity and social life are stimulated this year, and plenty of opportunities to express yourself uniquely and creatively will present themselves. You may find great joy and reward in your creative projects and hobbies, and could discover a new hobby or creative talent you never knew you had. Pleasure-seeking activities, recreation, and amusement are increased. You are far less inhibited when it comes to expressing yourself creatively, and you are a lot more fun to be around. These positive circumstances won’t necessarily fall into your lap, and are unlikely to come all at once. You need to keep your eyes open for opportunities in these areas of life.

The most favorable periods for these matters occur while Jupiter is in direct motion in your solar fifth, from January through the first week of May, and then from the second week of September through December. The very best times occur when direct Jupiter trines Saturn in January, September and November.

Saturn continues to transit your first house all year. Your physical body and mannerisms are a focus during this transit. Depending on your current age, it may be a time when you feel your age, or it is a time when you see your body more clearly. This is an excellent time for beginning health regimens, diets, and the like, simply because it is a time when you look in the mirror and see yourself clearly—not only what you want to see. Your outlook on life has been a little more serious and responsible. In the past while, you might have reached out to others in an attempt to validate yourself, looking for ways to boost your confidence. When these attempts failed, you may have felt temporarily let down and discouraged. Rest assured that Saturn will re-work these feelings, with your help of course, until you reach a point where you have a stronger sense of self. This is a year in which you can get to that point. This transit acts to transform your self-confidence in such a way that you question the source of your confidence to date, and discover a more solid base for pulling up inner strength. Saturn here acts to rip away the superficial. Illusions about the self, the body, and personal abilities will no longer be tolerated. The end result is a newfound identity and a realistic understanding of your own limitations, and your capabilities as well. In terms of career and projects, outward signs of progress may not be as forthcoming, yet the work that you do during this transit will lay a foundation for future success and progress!

Uranus continues to work its way through your solar seventh house. Close relationships may have received a shake-down recently, and you may have felt that it’s been hard to truly rely on a partner. Lifeless or outworn relationships may have been especially hard to bear for you. Some trial and error in relationships is par for the course with Uranus in this sector of your chart. This year, more changes in your view of partnerships are in store, but these matters are less pressing than they were in previous years. Neptune continues to move through your sector of work and health as it has been for the last few years. You are more susceptible to medications, chemicals, and other such things during this long-term cycle, so keep this in mind. Stress more easily affects your health as well. Some confusion on the job may have been part of the picture, or your job may have steered towards compassionate service, charity, or other helping professions. Although Virgos are known for their ability to stick to schedules, Neptune’s presence here has made it more challenging to do so. Saturn in your first house this year will help to keep you more organized.

For Virgos born August 23-25 and those with a Virgo Ascendant of 0-2 degrees, Pluto trines your Sun from the fifth house in 2008, and you are bound to have an uplifting, transforming year. You could take up some form of physical program that completely changes the way you feel about yourself. The things that give you joy and positive feedback figure prominently this year, and you feel renewed and regenerated. You also feel particularly strong and personally powerful. There is no such thing as playing the victim this year–you’re the victor and you feel it. You enjoy an increased ability to concentrate and focus on what really matters to you. Living authentically is what this year is all about.

A positive connection between your fifth and first houses this year suggests it would be wise to make something of your hobbies–even if it doesn’t translate to income, you might find that expressing yourself creatively really helps to define yourself and to understand yourself better. Your creative abilities are reflected in your outlook on life and love and romance are life experiences you strongly identify with. Children may be a stronger focus this year as well. You are more effective, in general, in attempts to express your creativity. You have a stronger ability to hold the attention of an audience.  Love, love affairs, and other social activities help to enhance a healthy self image.

Eclipses this year mainly fall in your sixth and twelfth houses, placing emphasis on work and service issues, as well as health (both mental/spiritual, and physical). You are called upon to deal with the the details and practicalities of everyday life, to become more organized, and to take charge of your routines. It’s time to formulate some clear goals and plans. Circumstances are such that you need to develop some healthy habits, routines, and schedules. Believing in a grand plan is fine, but practical concerns need to be dealt with as well. Recognizing your personal limitations in terms of just how much you can give to others and just how much compassion and understanding you can show is essential now. It’s time to structure your life. You are also dealing with issues that force you to rid yourself of guilt about under-performing, and to develop faith and trust in a larger more spiritual plan. It’s time to let go of some of your fears that you are not doing enough, to develop more compassion and understanding of others, and to be humble, feeling safe in the knowledge that you (and others) are not perfect. It’s also important to let go of some of your obsessions with rules, details, and fears of not doing things perfectly. Issues of guilt, worry, and anxiety are stimulated this year. The movement is towards a more balanced approach to dealing with practical, worldly matters and your own spiritual growth.

Some key periods in 2008 for you: From June 30-July 18, you have tremendous energy at your disposal. Life picks up pace considerably, and you feel like you can move mountains…and you probably can! This is the time to go after what you want. The best times for magnetizing what (and who) you want into your life are January 24-February 1, August 6-14, and November 12-21. Romance heats up from December 27 forward. Your strongest financial periods in 2008 occur from August 30-September 7 and September 22-October 2. Energy for making money is strongest August 19-September 3.

Saturn is conjunct your Sun until August. This Saturn conjunction, which often elicits groans and moans, has more productive and positive potentials than you might think. You are determined to make adjustments in your life style, your work, your home, and other areas of life. Your sense of timing and balance is superb now, and your efficiency is improved ten times over. Cleaning out closets, re-organizing the environment in which you live and work, and other such activities come to the fore. Others may turn to you for advice or recognize your competency and experience in a particular area of life. Additional training is a possibility now. Anything that requires focus and commitment benefits. Your efforts now are very constructive, and you are not inclined to want to leave any loose ends untied. You are likely to derive much satisfaction from taking care of practical concerns in your life. This is a time of long-range planning that will bring you benefits down the road. Get your affairs in order, and invest in yourself!

Authority figures or elders may be particularly helpful now, and you are more willing to humble yourself and listen to what they have to say. In fact, this can be one of the keys to your success this year and the next! Confronting your fears is easier now. Potential romantic partners tend to see you in a favorable light as well, and are attracted to your ability to tend to practical matters while also keeping your eye on the future.

This year, more changes in your view of partnerships are in store.

For those Virgos born September 7-12, and those with a Virgo Ascendant between 15 and 20 degrees, Uranus is opposing your Sun this year. People in your life may be surprised at your displays of independence. You don’t care for taking orders, and any attempts to limit you are likely to be met with great resistance or downright rebelliousness on your part. Some of you may find your current partnership limiting and you could either end it or experience tension as you explore ways to break free from restriction. Some of you could experience erratic or rebellious behavior in a close partner, and this could have you on your toes, wondering what’s next.

Neptune continues to move through your sector of work and health as it has been for the last few years.

2008 Details. Jupiter is  moving through your solar fifth house from March forward. You are bound to experience your fair share of fun, romance, and good times. Creative projects are likely to fare well, and could possibly even bring some type of recognition or reward. Love and romance may enter your life or is enhanced with good humor and warmth, and social engagements abound.

Pleasure-seeking activities, recreation, and amusement are increased. You are far less inhibited when it comes to expressing yourself creatively, and you are a lot more fun to be around. These positive circumstances won’t necessarily fall into your lap, and are unlikely to come all at once. You need to keep your eyes open for opportunities in these areas of life.

The most favorable periods for these matters occur while Jupiter is in direct motion in your solar fifth, from the last week of March through the first week of May, and then from the second week of September through December. The very best times occur when direct Jupiter trines Saturn in September and November.

Saturn continues to transit your solar twelfth house until November. Although Saturn entered your sign, Virgo, in September 2007, it doesn’t conjunct your Sun until November 2008. Since June 2007, you may have had many vague fears and anxieties that have undermined your confidence. This may continue to be a minor problem for you until November this year. Contemplation of the meaning of your existence, your accomplishments, and your “failures” may figure. Saturn has been turning a critical eye to all that lies beneath the surface, and you are forced to do some serious “spring cleaning” of your psyche during this period. You are facing your own demons—the vague yet haunting fears that undermine you. We all have skeletons in our closet. What we don’t always realize is that they can seriously undermine our happiness and well-being. Saturn sweeps through your “closet” (the twelfth house) until November, and demands that you take a hard look at what’s been hiding in there. Is this process uncomfortable? For most of us, it can be. But getting rid of outdated attachments, and examining and discarding irrational fears, is not only necessary for further growth and development—it’s ultimately a huge relief. The twelfth house in some ways is a dumping ground for things we have left “undone”. Saturn here wants us to sort through the junk and keep only those things that we truly need for future development. This process can be rather lengthy and it can feel very slow, but if done properly, it can be most rewarding. You tend to deal with endings rather than new beginnings during this transit, as you shed outdated attachments and unconsciously prepare yourself for Saturn’s transit of the first house from November 2008 forward, when you will work diligently on your individuality and personal identity. You are markedly introspective at this time, perhaps isolating yourself from worldly activities and acquaintances in some manner. Health issues, generally of a psychosomatic nature, may come to the fore. You may be attracted to alternate ways of living, and to self-study fields, such as psychoanalysis.

Saturn transits your first house from November forward and into 2009. Your physical body and mannerisms are a focus during this transit. Depending on your current age, it may be a time when you feel your age, or it is a time when you see your body more clearly. This is an excellent time for beginning health regimens, diets, and the like, simply because it is a time when you look in the mirror and see yourself clearly—not only what you want to see.

Although Virgos are known for their ability to stick to schedules, Neptune’s presence here makes it more challenging to do so. Saturn in your first house this year will help to keep you more organized, however, in the last two months of 2008.
