The Virgo Man

If you need your T's crossed and your I's dotted, call a Virgo man. He will relish the task. Precise, exact, and critical, the Virgo man knows that the devil is in the details, and he pays attention to them. He is also hardworking, efficient, and methodical and can usually work or reason his way out of any challenge.

He has a tremendous sense of duty and will work towards serving the greater good, be it his family, friends, work network, or community. He is skilled at fact finding and enjoys getting to grips with minutiae that many others would find overwhelming. He is usually Employee of the Month or Most Valued Player on any team, as everyone knows that you can count on the Virgo man to get things right the first time, and every time. He also loves to help out others.

Virgo is associated with the characteristics of the Virgin, such as modesty and purity. A Virgo man is balanced and fair. Most of all he has a certain noble quality to his bearing which is also humble at the same time.

Ruled by Mercury, you will never a find a Virgo man standing still for long. As fleet-footed as the Roman god that rules him, the Virgo man is a bundle of energy both mentally and physically. He is a powerhouse of achievement, often solving the next complex problem in his head while his hands do the work of the moment. He is also a very good communicator, as befits a sign ruled by the God of Messages.

As competent as he is, he doesn't always have the confidence to pursue his ambitions or to shoot high.

The Virgo man is prone to studying every situation in great detail. He is interested in understanding… well, everything and everyone. His goal is perfectionism, in himself, first, then his work, then the others around him, and finally the world. He isn't being condescending; he's just trying to do his bit towards improvement and enlightenment. He has very discriminating tastes and neatness is an ongoing priority for him. Virgoans are associated with Earth, and most Virgo men are grounded and practical. He is a sensible sort, with a tendency to worry overly much.
