The force of will · Earth, mutable

Before acting you prepare: list, checking, materials set aside, deadline broken into pieces. You execute with precision and hate disorganized improvisation. Your anger does not come as a shout, it comes as detailed observation: you point out exactly where the person went wrong, with date and time, and that tends to hurt more than a yell.

The light of this placement

You deliver to a standard of finish most people do not reach, and you are the one who truly solves things when the problem is technical and tedious.

The shadow — what to work on

Preparation can turn into postponement, and irritation with whatever is badly done, your own work included, leads you to exhaustion without noticing when to stop.

Mars: what it means in the chart

It shows how you fight, desire and assert yourself. It's the planet that explains why one person explodes and another stews for days, and why some only find out they were angry long afterward.

Virgo

Virgo is the sign of work well done and of the detail nobody sees but that changes everything. It takes what already exists and improves it: corrects, adjusts, trims the excess. People with it strong show affection by solving the practical problem of the person they love, and tend to be far stricter with themselves than with anyone else.
