Common Ailments for Virgo
There are certain stomach troubles and nervous conditions assigned those born under Virgo who are careless and neglectful of themselves. They can have them or not as they choose.

Virgo Personal Appearence

Virgo people are usually of middle or tallish stature, well formed, with oval face, a musical voice, and elegant manner.

Virgo Faults

The faults of Virgo people consist in their domineering tendencies, interference with other people's affairs, and the freedom with which they criticise the faults and shortcomings of others. They have generally an overweening respect for money and position, and many imitators and toadies are to be found among those who have not learned to overcome this false pride and ambition.

Dollars and cents have a value quite apart from the comforts and pleasures they provide. These are distinguishing marks which elevate their possessors to the most enviable altitudes.

Virgo people are usually firm believers in the necessity of medicine, and seem to be the victims of all sorts of maladies, if they are judged by their own accounts of their symptoms. They are usually very constant to physicians, often changing their aches, but not their doctors. Those born under Virgo should not take drugs, for they never need them. In fact, they should keep clear of strong medicine and physicians. Nature is their unfailing remedy.

Virgo people are apt to pick everything and everybody to pieces, and because of this analytical tendency are a great discouragement to others, especially those who are not talented in giving reason for the faith that is in them. Air and Fire people are often very much irritated by those born under Virgo, and sometimes Virgo people do not get along well together for the same reason.

Virgo people will confess to almost every fault except the ones they possess. These they do not seem to be aware of, and generally repudiate every intention to wound or hurt by their merciless criticisms. They are the individuals who feel called upon to tell disagreeable truths to people "for their good."

They are prone to prophesy, but as they reason from the objective and external, their prophecies often fail. This admiration of Virgo people for externals, and the desire to make a good appearance, lead some of them into habits of exaggeration and falsehood, and frequently into debt, from which extrication seems almost impossible.

Virgo Growth
The Virgo must realize that there is nothing perfect in nature, and should come alive to their own failings—their real faults and not their alleged ones. They should lay bare their inmost selves to the magnifying glass which they are so fond of using with others. They should endeavor to realize that an unkind comment or a hasty, cruel criticism is harder to bear and more lasting in its effects than a physical hurt or blow.

They should learn to judge others by themselves in such matters. They should try to give credit and praise to truth, virtue, and real merit, instead of rendering homage to money, aristocratic appearances, and the superficialities of life. They should not be ashamed of honest work.

There are women born under Virgo who would feel permanently disgraced by being caught in the act of washing dishes or sweeping a room. These are the people who whisper and strive to hide their economies and financial inabilities. They should struggle to be frank, and to be less sensitive to public opinion.

When once those born under this sign become aware that there is something besides the pleasures that arise from money and intellectual pursuits, they grow spiritually very fast, and the natural analytical tendency which made them so disagreeable, so hard to get along with, becomes a great power for good.

When this keen intellectual discrimination is vitalized by spiritual love and the desire to help, which is love's distinguishing characteristic, these Virgo people are very reliable and inspiring. They can attain to great heights and draw many to them because of a naturally strong magnetic influence, which increases as the impulse to rise develops.

Virgo Children
Children born under Virgo are the true children of Nature. They have strong likes and dislikes, with a dominant will power, quick discrimination and understanding, and very early in life show a talent for a business career. Their attention should never be called to the evil in the world, or to the faults of their companions, as this is very apt to prove a contamination which will embitter the whole life.

They should be continually instructed to look for the good in other people, and for the pure and beautiful in every thing. The tendency to critical analysis is the distinguishing trait of this sign, and the children are quick to form the habit of unkind judgment.

Virgo children are natural students. Give them a small garden to plant, to watch, and to attend to the growing. Give them music as a recreation and a promoter of harmony. This will develop a kindly force and elegance of taste which will bring hope and joy to the household. Having a very fine, sensitive skin, they should be carefully trained as to bathing.
