Sun in Virgo, Moon in Scorpio

Little escapes your notice. You are flexible, meticulous, discerning and at times sharp-tongued. You pick up every small change in your surroundings and every nuance in your relationships with people. You like to analyze and put in order everything you can. You are very hardworking and practical, and you carefully guard the fruits of your work from outside interference. You love secrets. You are frugal and economical, at times so much that loosening up a little would do you good. You guard jealously whatever you see as yours. At the same time, serving others matters deeply to you, and your care is sensible and shows itself in what you do. You have the makings of a good psychologist and a true judge of people, and you could easily steer others your way if you wished, which is a gift worth using kindly.

Your decisions are always quick and accurate. You work out in advance every possible risk and the smallest twists in how events might unfold. You carry your decisions out discreetly, with a fine sense of people and their sore spots, and sometimes with a bit of concealment. In a position of authority, you set out exact, verified instructions and monitor them closely, with a steady flow of extra remarks. You feel no need to take center stage. You enjoy working behind the scenes, and there you are stronger than anyone. You spend a lot of time looking after your own health and that of the people around you. Few people can sort the useful from the useless and the valuable from the harmful as well as you can.

Ordinary rest does little for you. Simply changing your field of activity is already rest for you, because you cannot imagine yourself without work. You relax where nobody disturbs you and you can attend to your private affairs. You prefer not to let others know your plans. Your emotional memory is long, and you remember hurts for a long time, so letting go of old grievances can free up a lot of energy. You are passionate, and deep down you are drawn to strong, unsettling emotions that may not show on the surface. People sometimes sense a certain heaviness or intensity around you. At home you like to be in charge, and you sense very well the mood of the house and of your loved ones. At times, without meaning to, you may shake up a relationship that is calm and settled, and noticing that impulse helps you protect what you value.

Your conscious aims and your inner needs work in harmony, turned toward a critical view and the transformation of yourself and the world around you. At times your drive may run low, and a little more open-handedness can warm your bonds.

In a man's chart, this combination brings an analytical mind, practicality and hard work, and he is often drawn to a partner with emotional depth, passion and an iron will. In a woman's chart, it can make adapting harder and puts a strong accent on her inner strength, and she is drawn to a man who is changeable, precise and thrifty.
