Virgo..

Do you believe in starsigns and horoscopes? Do you think it will bring you luck if you read them each day?
Or are you the type of person that thinks that it's all a load of nonsense, that it's a waste of time, and anybody who has been taken in by it is a complete fool?

Well, you guessed it. I disagree. I really do think that there's some truth within these horoscopes, from the direct word of a fortune teller, to the 4 lines on page 65 in the Daily Star.

So curious, I looked up the personality traits of a Virgo (That's me, September born!)

According to the website I found, a Virgo woman is a perfectionist, but that doesn't mean that she herself is perfect. She has her negative traits, and they can be very trying. To begin with, Virgo females have this dogged belief that no one can do things as orderly and as efficiently as they can. EnglishWiz

Didn't I just admit to that in class a few weeks ago? I think I did.

Admit you're wrong and don't argue. It won't do you a bit of good, you can't win with a Virgo. The earth is her element, so she appreciates the creations of nature, and the posies will soften her irritation. As for the apologies, keep them brief and accurate. The Virginian is nobody's fool. Her clarity of vision will spot an elaborate lie by the smoothest talker, and the faintest smear of lipstick on the edge of a collar. She may be pure-minded, but she's certainly not naive.

A Virgo woman loves the theatre. Parades, too. The pomp and pag­eantry, the dramatic emotion, give her an outlet for her own tightly controlled emotions. Besides, she's one great critic. Her highly developed intellect and artistic taste com­bine to give her a keen perception. If you could make Broadway producers understand this, you'd be showered with free passes to out-of-town openings. A Virgo woman will call the critics' reviews in advance almost every time. Discrimination is one of her keywords. She loves plays, concerts and books, but she's severely critical of the con­tent.

This really made sense to me. Granted, some of the article was nowhere near my personality (it said Virgos are punctual and hate chocolate! Oh, no!), but overall, it was kind of creepy how accurate some of it was. I am those things. I do those things. I think like that.

It is strange, I admit. How can the entire worlds population be divided into 12 different categories? And it be almost completely right?

But it is. At least I think so.

She had never quite forgotten that
if you drink much from a bottle marked "poison,"
it is almost certain to disagree with you,
soon or later.
Sometimes she scolded herself so severely as to bring tears into her eyes.
