Virgo

Your SmartScope for November 2009:

Hey there, Virgo. This November, your SmartScope asks you to rest, relax, and stabilize. Taking a breather will help you stay healthy and strong, and then you can get out there and be more active than ever.

Sometimes it's hard to sit back and be quiet when all you want to do is go out there and live life to its fullest. But if you never take a moment to build up your energy, you'll won't be able to live up to your potential.

I know it's hard, and maybe even boring, to sit back while it seems the world is passing you by. But sitting still doesn't mean you can't move forward with the world! Try meditating or writing in a journal. Organize your mind and learn about yourself. Find a new perspective. When you get back out there, the world will be an exciting, new place, and you'll be ready and energized to take it on.

About You, Virgo:

The Myth: It is not known for certain who Virgo represents, but historically, the constellation and sign have been linked to many goddesses, including Athena (the Greek Goddess of Wisdom), Ishtar (the Assyro-Babylonian Goddess of Love and War), and Cybele (a Hittite and Phrygian goddess who represented the Earth Mother). In one popular interpretation, Virgo represents Astraea, the daughter of the Greek god Zeus and the Greek goddess Themis. Astraea, the Goddess of Justice, was said to rule the world fairly and justly until, disgusted by humanity, she returned to the skies.
Cool Fact: Virgo is the only zodiac sign represented by a female.

Famous Female Virgo:

Marguerite Higgins (September 3, 1920 - January 3, 1966) was an American journalist who was one of the first women to report as a war correspondent. Braving the battlefield during WWII for the New York Herald Tribune, she was at the liberation of the Dachau concentration camp. She did not simply stand by and observe, however, earning an award from the U.S. Army for helping while the SS guards surrendered. She was the first woman to win a Pulitzer Prize for her coverage of international politics. She continued covering international relations, events, and interviews with world leaders such as Francisco Franco and Nikita Khrushchev until her death.
