Virgo is an Earth sign. The Earth signs are Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn, and they are known for being solid, practical, and sensual, but also stubborn and unyielding.

Virgos are logical, practical, and systematic in their approach to life, and they are perfectionists at heart who are not afraid to improve their skills through diligent and consistent practice. They are also known for being kind, gentle, and supportive friends and lovers who use their incredible intellect and resourcefulness to problem-solve.
