▶Under the virgo impulse the kala purusha is nailed to the cross
of matter.
▶Material attachment creates a strong physical bondage, but in
the inner nature, the manifesting soul is aware of the
possibility of liberation from them.
▶At this impulse consciousness is fettered but possesses an

of the relationship between spirit and matter.
▶This understanding often makes the individual born under
virgo sorrowful.
▶Such a person feels helpless and craves to find a way out of
the maze in which he finds himself.

▶Virgo refers to a maiden, not a married woman. The impulse
flowing through this sign represents the feminine aspect of
nature unalloyed by other influences.

special kind of power which is neither active nor passive.
▶For the activation of latent faculties, the influx of an active
agent is necessary.

with father.
▶The primeval female energy unmixed with any impact is

5. VIRGO`
▶She is worshipped as the virgin whose pure potential allows for
the fructification of all human perfections.
▶In order to maintain her pristine purity, the virgin nature has
to conceal herself in several layers of materialization.
▶She has to acquire the different sheaths that surround the
human being and the manifested universe and thereby must
suffer and forego her inherent freedom.
▶These conditions make the sixth zodiac sign produces sorrow
for the manifesting soul from the outer or the physical
standpoint.
▶In the manifest world, Virgo points to the divine energy lying
deeply entrenched in matter.
▶As a result of the relationship between the outer sheath of

inner and outer conditions for those of Virgo Ascendants is
very important.

the case during the involutionary course of the individual,
disease arises on the physical level and enmity in social
relationships.

individual is established, it gives power over the six primary
forces in nature

external, physical life, but can also grant great healing or
spiritual powers if the individual directs their energy towards
helping others.
▶The vertical lines of the Virgo symbol(`) refers to the
consciousness and masculine principle in the nature.
▶Yoga philosophy describes the nature of active agents as
Rajas(activity), Tamas(Inertia) and Sattwa(Harmony) which
one can see in the three vertical lines.
▶These three lines also also refer to the three states of non
physical consciousness as dream, deep sleep and pure
consciousness.
▶By establishing control over these states through a perfect
understanding of their workings, one becomes liberated.
▶The undulating serpant like line on the top of the vertical line
depicts the incongruity in the nature of Virgo, which is evident
from its anxiety and psychological complexities along with its
inner serenity and purity.

8. VIRGO`
▶The serpant is a symbol of both wisdom and wise.
▶The serpant describes the rhythmic changes of forms and
swelling of latent capabilities.
▶Together, the serpant and the vertical lines stand for
perfections achieved as result of disciplining the six kinds of
energies.
▶The serpant stands for both destructive and constructive
energies.
▶This attainment can make the individual an agent of death
like destruction, but properly directed, it can unlock the secret
wisdom of nature which is productive of immense goodness.
▶The tucking of the cross at the end of the serpents tail refers
to the limitations of this sign.
▶The cross is an insignia of matter. The cross in this symbol
refers to materialization and the submerging of the primeval
consciousness under the physical sheaths.
▶This extensive nature of matter is the greatest sorrow of the
virgin, mother earth.

9. VIRGO`
▶Under Virgo, nature’s finer forces can be veiled. The primeval
purity can be lost, and the destructive and unspiritual side of
nature become prominent.
▶If properly regulated, the Virgo impulse is capable of
harmonizing the various forces in nature, both subjective and
objective.
▶The serpant over the vertical lines, implying transcendence
over the various levels of consciousness, can give the
knowledge of nature’s secrets.
▶But there is always a strong tendency resulting from this
impulse to be weighed down by ones material propensities as
the serpent above the vertical line is pulled down by the cross
tucked to its tail.
▶Under Virgo, nature’s finer forces are placed deep under the
various levels of manifestation.
▶The difficulties experienced under the Virgo impulse are due
to the fact that all actions have equal and opposite reactions.

10. VIRGO`
▶Creativity, materiality, dedication to spiritual goals and
resulting personal sorrow are the chief traits of of Virgo
Ascendants.
▶Virgo is infact the materialization of the cosmic electrical
power and the expression of the natural law of action and
reaction, the law of karma, which manifests through it.
