For those with Venus in Virgo in the natal chart, Love is utilitarian. Love is continuous improvement. Love is pragmatic. Love is service. Love is efficiency. Love is careful and continuous analysis. Love is health. Love is selective and discriminating. Love is paying attention.
With this arrangement, love needs are sought to be fulfilled in an environment which calls for the use of one’s faculties of discernment.
While Virgo’s complementary sign, Pisces, is geared toward merging and unification, the Virgin’s direction consists of recognition and understanding of the difference between on thing and another.
For Venus in Virgo individuals “relationship competence” is of utmost importance, as a constructive developmental direction to which to proceed in puts emphasis on doing whatever is required to make relationships the best that they can be and operate in a healthy manner.
These actions include picking the relationship apart, examining each facet thoroughly and determining its overall usefulness.
As time goes on, the conclusions that one draws about what’s helpful and necessary for their partnerships will most likely change as a matter of principle and as an indicator of striving toward excellence.
One’s growth is naturally enveloped in the process of employing sound judgment in partnerships, and using these same unions as a vehicle for one’s own refinement and the betterment of the partner. Ideally, one’s relationships should work efficiently, like a well-oiled machine.
When placed in action, Venus in Virgo correlates well with the love language that Gary Chapman refers to as “Acts of Service” in his bestselling book “The 5 Love Languages”.
“Acts of service” consists of doing things that you know that your partner would want you to do or appreciate; seeking to please her or him by serving them.
One would naturally know what their partner wanted after careful listening, analysis and observation which are all mercurial functions that are “at home” with the sign Virgo.
In regard to this placement “discrimination” is a key phrase. And, depending on our life circumstances, we may have only been exposed to the negative connotations associated with this term, which deal with the unjust or prejudicial treatment of different categories of people.
However, there’s another side to discrimination which indicates one’s ability to choose and make distinctions with care. Refinement of this faculty will most certainly be connected to one’s ability to maintain and execute relationships in a healthy and functional manner.
Potential challenge areas emerge for individuals with Venus in Virgo when their analysis goes too far, in that they attempt to answer every question: past, present and future – in order to account for every scenario w/o taking the plunge with their feelings in relationships.
In essence, an self-inflicted paralysis and a robbing oneself of the right to possibly experience the love and relationship that you deserve.
An important lesson for you to learn is: as efficient as you may be, there are no guarantees. You must take the initial steps involved in risk taking.
and, when you find yourself in the midst of a relationship, you must wholeheartedly INVOLVE yourself as opposed to consciously distancing yourself and playing the role of “remote tinkering technician”.
Also, it’s essential to understand that the same time and care that one puts in dissecting the relationship must be invested in considering the feelings of one’s partner.
People aren’t “projects” and using your aforementioned powers of discrimination, to make the fine distinction between the two will benefit you greatly in the long run. Understand that the pursuit of the ideal in relationships is both a natural and honorable inclination for you.
To relinquish the belief that these aspirations must be accompanied by the excessive criticism of yourself and others, or that to be content and satisfied with what you have is accepting mediocrity, is to invest in the breaking your own psychological and emotional chains.
