Happy Birthday to all Virgos in GAIA country

Posted on Aug 29th, 2008 by Sherrilene : Living Ever Closer to Excellence! Sherrilene
virgo


Hello friends.

I don't know where the word got out but it appears that I am supposed to start celebrating my birthday even earlier than I had planned to! My birthday, for the record, is on Wednesday next week, the 3rd, but I am more than happy to start celebrating early.

I want to shout out to a number of my Virgo friends and wish them a fantastic season as well: Tara, Raf [waterheart], Helen [helenrscp], Terrill, MamaSue, Dan, Joe and Jim!

I hope I haven't left anyone out and if I did, please don't hesitate to join the party!

What can I say? I am happy to be a Virgo; I take pride in my femininity, my powers to heal, my attention to detail, my abundant nature. Perfectionist tendencies seem to be really useful nowadays in a fairly cruddy world that could do with some down and dirty cleaning up. I love my humility and my strong desire to serve, no holds barred. I definitely love my grounded nature - I'm a true-true nature girl - and my appreciation for the earth and all it places at our disposal.

Today I feel I have so much to be thankful for as I approach my 37th birthday. And all signs say it's going to get better. I am more than keen and ready to jump on board the train wherever it's going. Drops of Jupiter and all ;)

Apart from my noted colleagues above, here are some famous Virgos. I am so extremely proud to find that my role model and the person who inspires me probably more than anyone else who has walked this earth, Mother Teresa, is also a Virgo. What an absolutely lovely tribute in my opinion. :)

My favourite astrologer Jonathan Cainer helps to dispel some of the myths about Virgos!

The Myth:
Prim, proper and pedantic. Fussy and fastidious. Organised and ordered. These are the words that they use when describing those born under this sign. Virgos are, say the so-called experts, obsessed with detail. They are list-makers and line-drawers, i dotters and t crossers, law abiding, protocol following readers of small print.

The Truth:
Oh no they're not. First of all, the goddess that governs Virgo is not a symbol of celibacy but a figure of fecundity. She is Ceres; the harvest queen who stands for all that is voluptuous and abundant. Virgo is a sensual sign and Virgos are pleasure-loving people. They like to live life to the full and they also like to do things to the very best of their ability. It is from this that their reputation for having high standards has come. They can be picky, it's true but only about things that matter to them. And as for being terribly tidy well, some may be but most are just happy enough to know where things are. To a Virgo, tidiness is a psychological state not a physical one.


Soooo, since I really love to just get the party started, here goes! It ain't Stevie [yet! I should see him live in October in London! YAHHHH!!] but it'll get the ball a-rolling!

A Happy Birthday


Thanks so much everyone already for your well wishes; you have been so generous and loving.

Have a great Virgo season!!

Much love always, Sherri

To the Virgos! To celebration! To wonder and life and detail and abundance and the sweet and playful beauty of the perfectly imperfect, and to groundedness and service and attention to care and all those other wonderfully Virgoean attributes… and most especially, to Sherri and Mary and Bluewater and Joe (whose birthday is today, I believe) and Tara and Helen and Raf and MamaSue and Dan and Jim and Terrill. (And if your name belongs here too–you know who you are–please please please add it in. :)

Happy birthdays, all, and may there be many many more.

Woo hoo! So lovely to hear from you guys! GG, imagine that. I didn't remember [did I know? lol] Aley, I was supposed to be a Scorpio :) Some things you just don't question hahaha

Siona thank you kindly for visiting! Peri, that's kinda cool; we'll celebrate virtually together. I want to have a big dinner party at a restaurant with friends Wednesday night… will be back with pictures o'course!

Samme you're doing a great, thoughtful thing there. But then again, you are the next JC, why would I wonder? ;)

Today we continue the peaceful party! It's not as wild but man, it's satisfying!

Feel free to throw in anything to make us Virgins laff our butts off. We gots a chronic sense of humour in the deal too!

Love to all! Sherri

Hello! Nicole I thank you and I think Sandra is, yes! But she is not on my friends list so she might not even know we've started to celebrate.

Vishnu it's great to meet you. Hope you have a wonderful season as well.
