THe period under analysis this week is the first deeanate of the zodiacal sign of Virgo, from August 23 to September 2. Mercury vules the whole sign (Angust 23 to September 22), .The Sun is the ruler of the first decanate and the combined rule of the Sun and Mercury tend to high capacity for development. Pevsonal skill is dominant, there is financial ability, a sense of values, with a keen intellect, and a2 scientific mind, always se eking "and tabulating facts and figures. The Virgo-born are modest, refined and industrious, active; one seldom sees a Virgo person idle. The women are excellent housewives, They grow their own vegetables, tend their. own homes, and in many ways resemble the Gemini-born in versatility. They blend the ideal with the practical in an effective’ manner. They have good reasoning powers and ingenious methods of working in business or in the home. In appearance the Virgo-born are noi . robust nor especially muscular, but they have an immense amount of energy and seldom tire. ‘They can adapt themselves to any environment, but are more successful in the business work as chemists or dealers in foodstuffs, oy in the professional world as doctors and scientists. The position of the Moon at the birth decides the occupation together with the ruler of the sign Mercury. in this first decanate there may be born journalists and printers, painters, decorators, florists and gardeners, poultrymen and rabbit and guinea-pig farmers, landscape artists, chemists, and also grocers. Virgo is balanced in reasoning, and temper is almost unknown to them. They are not given to fighting, and are too intellectual to be domineering. In my analysis of Gemini, the other sign which is ruled by Merecury, the planet of reason, I mentioned the knowledge of all subjects which they possess, Virgo natives have a more profound knowledge and are the natural teachers of mankind. They are more jucid in their statements, more grammatical in their language, more correct in spelling than any other sign. There is a purity of diction in their speech, a love of order and precision, and this is shown in writing and speaking, the marshalling of facts on paper or in speech, reflecting the orderly mind and extreme menial alertmess.

xe Love Of Animals YIRGO-BORN are endowed with great personal charm and magnetism. They are calm and contented and their presence in the sick-room soothes and comforts. Animals and birds are attracted to the Virga native, the smaller helpless type especially. Domestic animals live to a great age under the gentle, loving care bestowed upon them by the Virgo woman, Cats and dogs and birds live together in perfect harmony under her kindly training. Virgo often finds its patience tested by great hardships. The illhealth of others restricts their movements.- Very often Virgo-born are chosen to go out into feverstricken districts, or isolated countries to nurse the sick. Many of them volunteer for such work, giving all their lives in the service of humanity. Despite hardship, the Virgo-born are long-lived, possessing great tenacity on life. Time is never wasted by these persons, nor do they allow others to waste time in frivolity or senseless argument. When an appointment is ‘made it’ is kept. Promises made are never. broken; they are careful always to fulfil their obligations. Virgo seldom

» gossips. If a topic of conversation interests them they will talk at length. If there is no interest they are silent. * ye Hints On Maps

yiRGo is the sixth house sign. The sixth house rules health and service. Persons born under Virgo and having the Sun in the sixth house of the map, become nurses or doctors or social welfare workers. Surgeons and midwives also have the Sun in the sixth. This house is the location of the service which we all render to the world, and the way. we vender it. Virgo being a Health sign, very often the work is connected with ill-health." The Moon in the sixth brings such workers as cooks and gardeners, housemaids and any work which is of a personal nature. All domestic animals are in the sixth house, cats, dogs, rabbits, chickens, pigeons, and guinea-pigs. The Virgo child will be interested in these animals, and many of my readers born in this sign can trace back to the first eat or dog which they possessed being given to them on their eighth birthday, when the life was passing for the first time since birth through the sixth house, Readers wishing to check up on the houses and the years to correspond, may note that the Sun passes over the Birth Sun in any house every 12 years after’ the first passing. A child born between the hours of 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. will have the Sun in the sixth, and in the second year the life passes through the fifth, then into the fourth, and s9 on right down the map until at the age of 12 the Sun is once again ever the place of the Sun at birth,

The best method of calculation | is to start the life at the ascendant — and then pass upward into the > twelfth for the first year of life, then into the eleventh, and thus | round the map to the house which — contains the Birth Sun. Thus, the life of a person with a sixth house © Sun will find the years which are most important and affecting his or her own private affairs will be eighth, 20th, 32nd, 44th. 56th and (8th. * %* Zodiacal Anatomy ACH zodiacal sign controls a division of the anatomy, and if the Sun or the Moon is in the sign at birth, there is a noticeable emphasis on the parts mentioned. Virgo rules the intestines, appendix, and abdominal cavity and its membranes, the spleen and the lower lobe of the liver. Virgo-born are faddy about their foods, and seldom enjoy a meal that is not attractively served, They are healthier when cooking their own meals, and.eat more when alone. ' Jupiter in ‘Virgo gives a large appetite, Saturn in Virgo restricts, Mars in Virgo inclines to food poison. A vegetahle diet-is more ac-

ceptable to Virgo, a love of all that springs from the ground, very little meat being consumed by the wise man or woman porn under Virgo. Selfishness and self-pity will cause an acid condition which will be general throughout the system, and a meat-eating Virgo native is very different to the even-tempered Virgo person who eats sparingly. «

Virgo unhappily married are the most miserable. They are better to remain single rather than marry the wrohg person, Persons born in the first decanate will find their affinities among those born between the dates January 11 to January 15, April 30 to May 15, July 2 to July 16, November 2 to November 19. Men born during this period should choose a capable business woman who wiil be able to run the home on business lines. Women born during RI this period are advised to choose a husband who is serious-minded and alive to his responsibilities, Virgo women are not happy with frivolous-minded men, nor are the men born under Virge happy with a flippant type of woman. The children born of a Virgo-Virgo mare riage will be fitted for medical and surgical professions. VirgoPisces marriages result in families of seven or eight children, some of whom hecome chemists, others nurses or masseurs. Virgo on the fifth house cusp of the map of the heavens ai birth indicates two or three children. The Moon in Virgo in the fifth house brings a large family of girls. * * Forecasts. Persons born on August 23 are to have a happy and fortunate year. Past experiences have shown them not to trust strangers if they are now past the 40th year, Mercury has been in retrograde for some weeks near to your birthdate, and the experience of hav-

ing ietters gO astray, or aocuments lost has rather upset your equilibrium. Virgo should never sign or post letters when Mercury retrogrades, Those who .celebrate their 34th, 40th, 46th and 52nd birthdays on August 24 will hear the wedding bells ringing for a member of the family if.they themselves are past the marriageable age. A legacy arising out of the childhood home will come to some of this date. August 25 brings a prospect of gain by investment. The profit may not come immediately, but the years 1945 and 1948 will bring your money back with much interest. An unusual type of person will now come into the lives of those who are over 21 and born on August 26. Holidays with very pleasant people, the "study of a musical instrument, perhaps Joining a troupe or band to travel are in the offing. Cupid joing up, too, so you should learn the rythym of the Wedding March first of all, Those born on August 27 will put a little sunshine into the lives of the elderly women relatives this year. All ‘Virgo-born are kind and thoughtful of elderly persons; slthough they are considered to be

unsympathetic in regard to those of their own age.
