Virgos are practical, analytical and hard-working, always knowing exactly where to look for the core of any problem. Their methodology makes them shine at jobs that require good organization, dealing with paperwork, problem solving and working with their minds and their hands.

Virgos are always paying attention to the smallest details and their deep sense of humanity makes them one of the most careful signs of the zodiac. Their methodical approach to life ensures that nothing is left to chance, and although they are often tender, their heart might be closed for the outer world.

This is a sign often misunderstood, not because they lack the ability to express, but because they won’t accept their feelings as valid, true, or even relevant when opposed to reason.

Virgo is an Earth sign, fitting perfectly between Taurus and Capricorn. This will lead to a strong character, but one that prefers conservative, well-organized things and a lot of practicality in their everyday life.

Virgos are excellent advisors, always knowing how to solve a problem. This can make them helpful and extremely useful to have around, but also brings out their need to search the problem in everything and everyone around them. 

People born with their Sun in Virgo are very dedicated to their family and attentive to elderly and sick people. 

They understand tradition and the importance of responsibility, proud of their upbringing and everything that made their mind be as dominant as it is.

The sign of Virgo leads Venus to its tragic fall and speaks of one’s inability to feel worthy, beautiful, or lovable. Compatibility of Virgo with other zodiac signs is mostly based on the ability of their partner to give them all the love they need to start feeling safe and open up enough to show their soft, vulnerable heart. 

They will rarely have direct statements of love, but intimacy brings out all of the beauty of their emotional self-expression. 

A Virgo will prefer a stable relationship than having fun, casual lovers, except if they become one, using their charm and superficial communication to win hearts without ever investing their own. Methodical and intellectually dominant, each Virgo seems to have an equation in their mind that their partner has to follow.

To seduce a Virgo man, one must respect his need for cleanliness and order. In most cases he enters romance slowly, carefully, and likes to take his time getting to know a person before starting anything serious. 

When he receives information on what to expect, his partner has to be sure to deliver nothing less. 

A Virgo man might put up a cool front, but don’t let him fool you. He has deep and sensual needs, and only if his partner is patient enough, able to withstand his tendency to over-analyze everything, he will eventually warm up.

Here’s a thought – 

Sherlock picking up on Greg and Mycroft’s relationship not by how they react around one another – Mycroft would be VERY careful that they did not interact at all around Sherlock until they were both entirely ready for him to find out – but by their changing mannerisms as they spend time together.

Greg’s perfected the Mycroft Indeed™ eyebrow lift.  It drives Sherlock up the wall.

Mycroft starts doing the hair sweep.  It’s not as dramatic as Greg’s version, his style doesn’t allow it.  It was funny to start off with.  Now Sherlock just finds it annoying.

Sherlock walks in on Greg at his desk trying to fathom something out with a perfect imitation of Mycroft’s deduction hands suspended before his mouth.  He turns around and walks straight back out again because NOPE I ALREADY HAVE ONE BROTHER I DO NOT NEED ANOTHER ONE THANKS.
