Virgo
Born between: August 23rd - Sep 22nd
Dedicated and accomplished are the best ways to describe a Virgo as they have profound morals and are often initiative. However those born under the Virgo star sign need to take extra care to control their temper and be patient.
Make the effort to look at nature and get out into the park to appreciate the flowers. Seek out something beautiful in terms of art. Suddenly all kinds of communications are speeded up, with more letters and phone calls than usual. Your recent efforts to dig deeper for fundamental answers is starting to pay off. Introspective colours are magenta and tan. Lucky numbers are 9 and 62.
Things that have been stale suddenly become unsupportable. There is a different kind of life out there, if you're willing to face up to the unknown. The trick now is to find a way of bringing a sense of adventure into your life without overdoing it. If you can pace yourself through these few days, your vitality makes new doors open. Auspicious colours are amber and emerald. Lucky numbers are 62 and 75.
You should be confident and optimistic today, so follow the need to develop your potential. Be realistic, but positive. You won't be wasteful or throw money around. Accept the way life is, then you can begin to work with it and make everything happen for yourself. Your appetite will be stimulated, so be careful of your waistline. Effective colours are blackberry and terracotta. Lucky numbers are 6 and 42.
Give yourself permission to go off and do what you want to do for yourself. Take a chance for reflection. You'll be surprised how inspiration suddenly hits you about things that seemed to have no answer. Maybe you were not being very practical with the Sun in your house of grand plans, but you will soon sort out what is workable. Inspirational colours are cream and red brick. Lucky numbers are 4 and 39.
You much prefer to be one of the crowd just now, because as far as you are concerned there is safety in numbers. You may become a little bit jealous over a friend's behaviour, but don't overreact. This is all down to the Moon which is very fickle. Within two minutes the situation will have changed again. Avoid chopping and changing your plans for the days ahead. Protective colours are purple and saffron. Lucky numbers are 39 and 54.
Uranus brings a blast of fresh air through certain areas of your life, Virgo. Anything which has got dreary or stale will waken up a bit. Why not try to open up to other people a little bit more? Maybe you feel you would be humiliated if you disclose all your best ideas, but in fact you'll gain from creative discussions. The important thing is that the truth is what matters, not who's saying it. Effective colours are carnelian and autumn leaves. Lucky numbers are 40 and 6.
Planetary influences prevent tensions from coming out into the open, so everybody sulks and gets bad-tempered. Keep your sense of humour handy. Avoid being controlling in your emotional and domestic life. Hidden, intense feelings run just beneath the surface, but it would be more productive to go inside yourself and explore these fears and anxieties, which stem from childhood. Dynamic colours are aqua and glossy obsidian. Lucky numbers are 50 and 35.
You will be working even harder than usual to achieve your ambitions. No one will be allowed to slow you down or stand in your way. But tread softly. Sometimes gentle persuasion works faster than issuing orders. If you cannot quite make up your mind what you want in your emotional life, or what your commitments should be, but it's only a passing blip, so just step back briefly until you feel clear again. Auspicious colours are spearmint and ebony. Lucky numbers are 34 and 53.
Companions will trust you, though perhaps they think you are a touch over-optimistic. Maybe it is true that you do look on the bright side of life and promise more than you can deliver, but you mean well and no one will really mind. Remember to think carefully through the practical consequences of what you are saying. Life can be fascinating, so seek out interesting people who will stimulate you. Fortunate colours are ivory and mottled grey. Lucky numbers are 16 and 24.
Be creative and you can be more productive than usual, Virgins. You can turn some of your dreams into reality. You may have to overcome some lethargy, because frankly putting your feet up and daydreaming will provide a very seductive alternative. If you are on the lookout for a new romance, you could find it at work or perhaps with someone slightly older. It may not be grand passion, but it could raise your social status. Practical colours are russet and blue velvet. Lucky numbers are 36 and 15.
If you can't travel literally, you will travel in your mind. Get out the holiday brochures, read books with an exotic flavour, do anything that takes your mind off whatever is standard, expected and the same as yesterday. Aim to stretch yourself in at least one activity during the day. Nothing will distract you from the essentials. It may not be passionate or very exciting but you will accomplish a modest amount. Bold colours are madder lake and green tourmaline. Lucky numbers are 9 and 12.
New joint financial ventures could begin under today's Eclipse that may not seem very spectacular, but will pay off in future. Be sure of your facts and sure of your ground, before you move.

Because you seem honest, outgoing, confident, and good with words you will be a popular companion at work and in your leisure activities. Auspicious colours are vermilion and gunmetal. Lucky numbers are 67 and 40.
Make new agreements with close partners over joint finances or your intimate emotional life. It could only be minor adjustments you are looking for, but if you make the effort it will put everything on a more solid footing. You cannot quite make up your mind on what you want, or what your commitments should be, but this is only a passing phase. Step back briefly until you feel clear again. Resourceful colours are pale green and rose quartz. Lucky numbers are 37 and 17.
You are in mental overdrive, zipping on so quickly that you might miss opportunities. Pause to collect your scattered wits and you will achieve more. If you rush ahead too fast you may get careless or cut corners. You are more stubborn and intense than usual in discussions. Confront those who share joint responsibilities with you, to sort out better agreements. Advantageous colours are green and golden hessonite. Lucky numbers are 10 and 17.
If you seem less than compassionate of the needs of others, it's because you find it difficult to understand people who lack your drive. Remember that everyone is different, Virgo. Your straightforward approach cuts through barriers and gets to the point of situations, as you want much deeper connections. You need to feel you belong and are firmly rooted. An almost mystical link with nature will bring you a new sense of meaning. Beneficial colours are burnt umber and plum. Lucky numbers are 47 and 26.
Don't leap into a situation emotionally unless you really want to see it through to the end. Later in the day nothing will distract you from the essentials and you will accomplish a great deal. It may not be passionate or very exciting but you will be pleased with the results in any case. Saturn in easy aspect to the Moon means you will deal with practical situations. Passionate colours are chrysolite and hazel. Lucky numbers are 17 and 18.
Feeling so good about things, you are charming and cheerful, but rather superficial and extravagant. Watch it a bit when you go shopping. Don't spend for status. If you have creative talents, make the effort to get them out on display to best advantage. You can turn your dreams into reality, but you will have to discipline yourself. Great colours are bone and maroon. Lucky numbers are 15 and 62.
This is a great day to pamper your body. Look after your health and your energy, and in two or three days' time you'll find that you are much more active again. Put your ideals first at work and then you'll find that the rewards flow in more readily. The attitude of certain team mates is disappointing but try not to be too perfectionist or critical. Accept the way life is. Bold colours are black and gold. Lucky numbers are 11 and 61.
High-flown topics fascinate you more than usual, Virgo. Interesting people from different backgrounds and countries come forward and you definitely want more mental stimulation. You should be able to find stimulating companions to share your views. Maybe you do want to be absolutely truthful about certain matters now, but if you are scorchingly direct you will ruffle too many feathers. Inspiring colours are brown and ebony. Lucky numbers are 17 and 43.
You have now learned one valuable lesson, and you will not be caught out in the same way again. You have the stamina to see this one through to the end. Now it is just a question of hanging on in there until you tidy up the last loose ends. You are feeling strong, secretive and more determined than usual, so you will not readily divulge what you are feeling or planning to any but your nearest and most intimate partners. Auspicious colours are red carnation and striped agate. Lucky numbers are 71 and 61.
You are deeply changing your attitude to home and family matters now. This is a long slow process where you begin to evaluate carefully what you want to hang onto from the past, then start clearing out what is no longer essential. Move away from old patterns of relating and behaving, but be careful not to magnify small situations and turn them into dramas. If you make loved ones feel shut out, they won't respond well. Propitious colours are chrome and honey. Lucky numbers are 62 and 31.
The present influences could bring good relationships into your life, but it will also tend to bring rather zany people who are not always the kind of friends you want in the long term. They are very exciting in the short term, but you may then realise that you need people who are more settled. Use your charms to impress the influential people at work or out in the community. Effective colours are persimmon and platinum. Lucky numbers are 21 and 10.
Find time to stay close to what you really feel. Don't put on airs and graces. New relationships which appear now could be very switch-on, switch off but exciting on the way through. At work it is important to try out new ways of co-operating. There is a definite feeling of change in the air, but if you can find the courage to go with it you will find more interest, stimulation and potential in the days ahead. Expressive colours are yellow sapphire and lapis lazuli. Lucky numbers are 45 and 31.
It's important to get the right kind of emotional contact with friends and other people, partly for affectionate support, partly because you want to bounce ideas off them for the future. This is your time to set the agenda for the next 28 days and whoever is around can help you sort out your options. Everything in life does seem more fortunate as lucky Jupiter moves through your sign. Even if you have problem areas you can find a silver lining. Auspicious colours are charcoal and amber. Lucky numbers are 46 and 35.
You feel like going at everything in top gear, but watch you don't fly ahead too fast. In sporting or physical activities, take care that you are not taking risks. Not that you will be particularly accident-prone, but you might think you are capable of more than you actually are. As Mercury turns, you will feel hugely ambitious and very determined, so you will work hard to gain your ends. Best colours are gunmetal and beige. Lucky numbers are 29 and 60.
It's hard work behind the scenes to get your partners to shift ground, Virgo. On this Full Moon, you can't have it all your own way, but you need to feel you have an area marked off that is yours, especially with regards to money. Being too attached to the good things in life can make you a touch possessive, so perhaps you need to appear more laid back than you really feel. Stabilising colours are iris and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 30 and 70.
This could turn out to be a very kind, creative and spiritual day, but it's just not a very down-to-earth time. Everyone seems to have their head in the clouds, including yourself. You have a strong urge to be even more helpful than usual, even charitable in the work you do, but this general mood can also lower your energy levels and concentration. Try not to force the pace or demand too much of yourself. Fortunate colours are pale violet and carnelian. Lucky numbers are 6 and 8.
Your ability to keep the peace and boost morale could be useful in gaining you prominence at work. Your charm may have a hidden agenda but it will bring the desired result if you keep schmoozing in the right places. Expect some confrontations or even minor power struggles within the family. You are trying to change but someone close may not want to let go of the way things were. Be firm but gentle. Confident colours are copper and wine. Lucky numbers are 3 and 53.
Try not to get hypersensitive or overreact to other people's comments. Sometimes you can just get yourself worked up about things that aren't that important. Give yourself space to wind down and be a bit more at peace. Your emotions may be getting in the way of reason, because you cannot think as clearly as usual. Avoid carrying on over trivia. Harmonious colours are honeysuckle and jasmine. Lucky numbers are 60 and 4.
Not terribly practical in your outlook just now, you may be swept up in your enthusiasms to the point where you lose touch with what is possible. Keep your feet on the ground and be realistic, but don't lose sight of your wonderful visionary ideas. You are in a highly tolerant, expansive and enthusiastic phase, and expressing yourself confidently. Mates find you inspiring though at times you promise more than you can deliver. Favourable colours are grapefruit and nutmeg. Lucky numbers are 6 and 3.
