The month of Virgo is the sixth month of the astrological year. This month corresponds to the sign of Virgo, which is an earth sign and is ruled by Mercury. The sign of Virgo is connected to practicality, working and serving others; people born in this month feel the need to achieve financial security and a desire to serve society.
Virgos find success in careers as doctors, nurses (or any healing profession), as social workers, service technicians, bankers, accountants, and in professions of beauty and fashion.
Virgos need to check and assess their actions. Like a businessperson that reviews the year-end profits and losses, it’s easier to criticize others than it is to see what is wrong with one’s self.
When they learn to love, honor and accept others as they are, without criticism, judgment, or trying to change them, this is when the Virgo correction is complete; once the Virgo experiences unconditional love, they have finished their correction.
Mercury in Hebrew is Kochav. Numerology value is Caf Vav = 26 = Yud Hei Vav Hei and Caf Bet = 22 = the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet, which indicates that Mercury is a planet of communication.
Financially, Virgo is not an easy month. Many important changes might happen, including the need for new business ventures with new consciousness.
There is a large incident of immigration in this month, where more people find the need to leave their homelands in order to go new places, looking to change their luck.
In personal relationships there are more international connections and meetings, which means there is more openness to go out of the family circle to meet new people.
This is a month to contemplate the meaning of life, both in the personal and global realms.
