VIRGO
This sign's early lifetimes are spent in servile roles. For many reasons, this is valuable to our evolution. For one, servitude provides experience with handling the material exigencies of life. Second, it provides opportunities to develop virtues, such as humility, efficiency, thoroughness, and a sense of duty. The drawback to many lifetimes of servitude is that Virgos may fail to develop their own talents. They may give themselves away to others, not for the same reason that Cancers do, but for what they consider to be a higher purpose: service. If they have no fire or other identity-strengthening factors in their charts, they may lose themselves in service to others and wind up bitter and depressed.
Many lifetimes of service develop virtues more than they do skills. The outstanding virtue is dedication to service, which comes from the satisfaction of efficiently carrying out one’s responsibilities. Service is the lesson that is learned so well by the time we have lived many lifetimes as a Virgo. Another virtue of the developed Virgo is humility. After learning to transcend the resentment and anger of their first lifetimes of servitude, they become consummate and humble servants. How do they make this leap from resentment to humility? At some point in their evolution, they realize that only goodwill and good work can raise them from their position of servitude, and anger and resentment only hinder that. By doing good work, they experience their intrinsic worth. And, by observing the sometimes-frivolous world of the rich, they come to realize that no one is better or worse because of his or her social position or role. Humility comes out of the realization that no one is superior to anyone else. This is what servitude eventually teaches them.
Developed Virgos are dedicated workers, capable of carrying out orders and instructions with pleasure and gratitude for the opportunity to serve. But because they avoid the limelight and work behind the scenes, they rarely get the credit they deserve. Nevertheless, their accomplishments are not dim. Like Taureans, they perform the bulk of the work of society and are its mainstays.
