VENUS ENTERS VIRGO (6th Sign) - Jul 14 2007
Brief description: Venus in Virgo loves her work. Her pride is demonstrated with meticulous detail. Marcia Cross' plays the perfect Venus in Virgo character on the popular TV show "Desperate Housewives". She portrays the perfect hostess with a fastidious hand. While not all those born with Venus in Virgo have a pristine household there is likely to be something they do that can be described to perfection as a labor of love. This is the sign of Venus' fall where she earned a reputation for being critical and picky and some believe she can not be satisfied while in Virgo.
Appreciation is not the commodity here that it is when Venus travels through Leo instead there is the issue of expectations. Appreciated must truly be earned in the Virgo placement and it is here where actions speak louder than words. Someone with this Venus is more likely to show you how they love you by cooking, cleaning and making your daily routines easier and want your recognition for their efforts. It’s the expectations that are the true downfall when Venus is in Virgo. Venus in Virgo keeps those closest to her on a short leash when there is work to be done, but works hard for you when you’re away. This Venus loves you most when you are helpful and then you’ll see someone who is extremely grateful. The squabbles arise when you are clueless of what it expected. This Venus is best when surrounded by those who can read minds. She will do anything asked of her and can not imagine anyone saying no when she needs help. It’s all about the work. Happiness is getting the work done. Keeping the peace at work. Finding a peaceful spot to work. Working things out. Venus doesn’t argue for the sake of arguing but wants to process the problems and truly wants to hear how you are willing to work with her.
Venus is not frivolous in Virgo and needs a good reason to spend. Usually Venus is comfortable buying clothes and accessories for work. Venus will shell out the big bucks for computer equipment or specialty tools. Socializing at work makes sense as long as there is good food for everyone.
On July 27, 2007 Venus will turn retrograde in Virgo remaining there briefly before returning to the sign of Leo on August 8, 2007. The last time Venus turned retrograde in Virgo was in 1999.
