~Virgo

Bringers of the solution because they are discoverers of the problem. They encourage calm, peace, and orderliness as an extension of the beauty in purity; a virginal vision. They nurture the natural order of all things which reflect the Divine most precisely

from the complete tales and poems of Edgar Allan Poe

~ Aries: “Who calls you now -
Arise! from your dreaming. In violet bowers,
These star-litten hours-
Up! Shake from your wing
Each hindering thing: the dew of the night could weigh down your flight;”

~Taurus: “But now, my soul has too much room -
Gone are the glory and the gloom. The black has mellowed into grey,
And all the fires are fading away”

~ Gemini: “The noblest name in Allegory’s page,
The hand that traced inexorable rage;
A pleasing moralist whose page refined,
Displays the deepest knowledge of the mind;
These names when rightly read, a name known
Which gathers all their glories in its own”


~Cancer: “At midnight in the month of June, I stand beneath the mystic moon. An opiate vapour, dewy, dim,
Exhales from out her golden rim”

~Leo: “Look round the now on Samarcand! -
Is she not queen of Earth? her pride
Above all cities? in her hand
Their destinies? in all beside
Of glory which the world has known
Stands she not nobly and alone?”

Virgo~ “And by strange alchemy of brain
His pleasures always turned to pain -
His naïveté to wild desire -
His wits to love - his wine to fire”

~ Libra: “The ring is on my hand,
And the wreath is on my brow;
Satins and jewels grand
Are all at my command,
And I am happy now!”

~ Scorpio: “Death has reared himself a throne
In a strange city lying alone
Far down within the dim West
Where the good and the bad and the worst and the best
Have gone to their eternal rest
While from a proud tower in the town
Death looks gigantically down”

~Sagittarius: “By a route obscure and lonely
Haunted by ill angels only,
From a wild weird climb that lie, sublime,
Out of Space - out of Time
But the traveler, traveling through it,
May nit - dare openly view it;
Never its mysteries are exposed
To the weak human eye unclosed”

~Capricorn: “It was my choice or chance or curse
To adopt the cause for better or worse
And with my worldly goods & wit
And my soul & body worship it…”

~Aquarius ~ “A green isle in the sea, love,
A fountain and a shrine
All wreathed with fairy fruits and flowers,
And all the flowers were mine”

~ Pisces: “And thus my memory is to me
Like some enchanted far off-isle
In some tumultuous sea
Some ocean throbbing far and free. With storms - but where meanwhile
Serenest skies continually”

The Strange & Unusual Virgos … 

written by #astrolocherry

Virgos can be kind and kooky, elusive and eccentric, perfectly imperfect. The high state of tension and mental agility creates the impression that she is seclusively contained in her own world. She has an unusual and unique way of doing everything. And it must be magic, because she mends what is broken and stitches wounds as if it never happened.
Virgos carry out private rituals and secret habits, like preferring to be alone, or to read a book rather than engage in your boring conversation. The problem is that she orchestrates a grand mystery and conceals her subtilise, but shadows her wild light and dandelion mind at the same time, she shields the worst of her, but then she eclipses the best. She may give the impression of great discipline and inner order, but the truth is that she struggles with moderation. Her over restriction and need for control is completely undisciplined, but she is probably well aware of her weaknesses because it’s how she defines herself. She is not what she is and what she has done, she sees everything lacking, inadequate, and empty in her reflection.

 
Yet she tries her best at everything, there is no problem that she wouldn’t attempt to solve nor a puzzle she wouldn’t investigate. And people come to grow overly comfortable with her presence in their life. She is someone they can call upon for instruction or guidance, something is missing or malfunctioning, or when they are unwell, lost, or emotionally distressed. She can offer many helping hands because she has empathy shaped of life experience. Virgo is ruled by Mercury and associates with learning and quality of mind. When we are referring to Mercury and Virgo, we are speaking of feminine and matriarchal intelligence. There is a line where reason and rationality stops and intuition begins in Virgo, if she manages to relinquish her need for intellectual control. Her character is built of hard knocks, humbleness, and the eventual taming of the ego’s final gasp at taking her power away. She is intriguing and strikingly sure of herself in a shaky way. Her free flowing conversation is fascinating and brimming with marvellous insights, observations, and fact. There is no one else quite like her, she is far too intricate and complex to be repeated.

The Elements of Astrology ~

written by #astrolocherry

~Fire Priestesses - Aries, Leo, Sagittarius
Whatever in the world she wants - she wants it now, and refuses to compromise or make any deals. A romantic at heart who can fall in love with the world, she cannot contain her  passion and appetite for experience, elation, and affection. The inferno of the Goddess rises viscerally through her body when her carnal desires have been activated. And there is rarely shame in her sexuality, so she is never afraid to unleash her wild side. Fire can dominate, or dominate through submission. In any way, she tends to subconsciously control the environment through her sensual command and hypnotic intimate flow. She can make you feel like you are standing on the gateway of heaven and hell together, and have no doubt, she will make you feel like you can have both…but you can never have both at once. If you want a safe bet, you’ve drawn the wrong hand.


~Earth Priestesses - Taurus, Virgo, & Capricorn
Earth priestesses are here to rule the world and leave a legacy in their name.  Their talents are made for the material plane,  their heels are made to glide like ice skates along the corporate floor, their eyes are made to calibrate value and potential in direct vision. The earth is their palace, and they make it known. They revere their ancient diplomatic powers and reach those supreme positions that ensure they will be given a say in how this world is run, because, don’t think for a second that you can pull this ground from beneath them. Earth is not afraid to dream the dreams and honour the work of the great women that stood before them; the leaders, the thinkers, the queens, the mothers, the creators, the survivors, and the monarchs that constructed the way making their path possible now. 


~Air Priestesses - Gemini, Libra, Aquarius
Air priestesses are the blend between independence and dependence, cute and clever, a sweetheart with words sharpened like knives. Air lives in the mind, they never really came down to earth. More time is spent hanging out with their own thoughts than anybody else in the world. These are thinking girls, so don’t be surprised or agitated when they forget something so basic as their keys or seem to struggle with simple domestic tasks… Air has that freedom of forgetfulness, and doesn’t bother much to save space and supply energy to such things. They would prefer satiate the appetite in the mind rather than the stomach with drops of word ink. Air is the element of intellect, they tend to know what talents they have and don’t have, so they may not offer to help bake you a cake, but they will stay up late reading your child to sleep, they will be prepared to help anybody who approaches them for conversation, and they can make your problems vanish with their conversation or mere natural presence.  Like a breath of fresh air blown through your mind, body, and environment- a cool, cleansing rush of telepathic love.

~Water Priestesses - Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces
Water Priestesses are the stars of mythic theatre performing the greatest stories on earth. They don’t have to move or speak a word to make the force of their presence known, and every spirit in the room becomes hypnotised beneath the cosmic spell that only they remember the ingredients. Marvellous, mysterious, and formidable forces stir chaos and maelstroms within. Though, most of their ordeals are kept secret, so nobody truly knows how far below they have sunk before they rise again. It’s difficult to conceive how she manages to fight all of this on her own, and yet still create a wave in the world with the command of her psychic tsunami. she is not made for the earth but she can dissolve and soak the boundaries completely, her water sisters are starring in mythic plays while also dominating the corporate, business, and political floor with the resources she got told were weaknesses. resources like life experience and resiliency, empathy opened through personal tragedy, a sensitivity that enhances the depth of relationships, passion, sacrifice, emotion, and love.

Virgo ~ When her mind is calm as garden of healing balm, all imperfections fade; Being perfectly alone and content makes her one of the most elusive and hardest to catch in romance and love, it also means her relationships are not about needing, but about giving and receiving
