Virgo August 23 - September 22

A sharp tongue and an even sharper wit are your calling cards, and this year you will be making many special deliveries. For the most part, you are good with words and communication, but you must take notice that oftentimes your meaning may become twisted in the message. Always think about your audience, and carefully consider the best way to present your ideas to different crowds. For Virgo's born toward the end of the Sign, January and February will be months of solidifying long-term, positive relationships. Wedding bells ring, contracts bind, and hearts fall hopelessly in love during the first quarter of the year. In February especially, romantic couples will share a memorable vacation, or otherwise enjoy one another's company tremendously. As the calendar flips toward June, your mind will wander toward financial concerns. In this instance, your resources will become more useful and more profitable if you make investments with a like-minded group. Sharing resources means that everyone will share in the wealth. You could have very good luck in dealing with other people's money. From March through the end of the year, you'll want to take extra care with any travel or vacation plans. Remaining flexible is key, and making reservations that can change with your needs is also a smart idea. What you may have thought was going to be a frivolous, light-hearted jaunt might turn out to be a major learning experience. Weigh your intentions and your choice of traveling partners very heavily. Rather than globe trotting, you may want to focus more on your career, as April and May promise some great achievements and recognition in the workplace. Take advantage of the opportunities and networking in front of you, and jump at the chance to prove your many strengths and discuss your ideas. Promotions are on the horizon, and you are scaling the corporate ladder by leaps and bounds. Friends step into a new light around May, and you come to see their value, rather than just their companionship. Demands on your time will loosen and you will be enjoying yourself once again. The friends that stick by you will be friends for life. Take a moment to celebrate them and to tell them how you really feel. Happy Birthday to You, Virgo! August and September are full of high energy and good fortune, and the day to commemorate your birth will be full of the magic and sparkle you seek. Others can't get enough of your pleasant conversation. If you've been considering a move, whether it's around the corner or across the globe, now is a good time to make the change. Even a subtle improvement, like a new set of curtains or a fresh paint job for the home, could make all the difference. As the holidays approach, this will be a romantic time for Virgo. From October onward, you can expect more than one head to be turning in your direction. Love and bliss are yours for the plucking, and you can expect this tide of good feelings to carry over into the new millennium.
