Aug 22 – Sep 22
♍ Virgo
Earth · Mutable · ruled by Mercury
Notices the one thing that is off and cannot unsee it.
- precise
- helpful
- self-critical
- practical
Virgos fix problems before anyone else spots them, which is generous right up until it sounds like criticism. The intent is almost always care that happens to come out as a checklist. Give them a real job and they'll outwork everyone in the room.
Virgo in love and at work
In love
Virgo shows love through small, practical acts: remembering your schedule, fixing what's broken, checking that you ate. They can be slow to say how they feel, but their care never switches off.
At work
Virgo excels where accuracy matters: health care, research, editing, accounting and data. They are the colleague who catches the mistake everyone else missed.
Who Virgo gets along with
Same element: Taurus, Capricorn
Water signs, a natural complement: Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces
Sun signs are only one part of compatibility. Our Saju pairing compares both full birth charts.
Those dates aren’t fixed
Aug 22 – Sep 22 is the usual printed range, but the Sun crosses into Virgo at a different hour every year, sometimes a full day earlier or later. If your birthday sits at either end of that range, check it properly rather than trusting the table.

Why two Virgos can be so different
A sun sign uses one fact about your birth. Saju, the Korean birth chart, uses the year, month, day and hour, and weighs them as five elements. That is why two Virgos born a week apart can come out very differently.
