(August 24 - September 23)
The sign of the Virgin
Discriminative, methodical, logical
The Virgoan horse has a similar look in the eye to the Piscean, but she is not as much of a dreamer as she appears. Her little feet are firmly on the ground and her head full of steady, earthy thoughts, not dreams. The closest she gets to dreaming is wishing you would tidy up the yard. Mess upsets her, and whilst she will cause you less trouble than a more exucerant sign when it comes to washing rugs, he aversion to mud, wind and rain make her a poor prospect for hunting or cross-country. Nor is she keen on being one of the herd, preffering her own space and a large degree of autonomy. She is best suited, perhaps, to the fair-weather rider who stables her in a tidy, efficient livery yard. That said, though, she would probably shine at dressage, its precision and balance being welcome to her methodical nature.
Attention to diet is required, for the Virgoan horse is a fussy eater who may lose condition in the harder months, but don't worry too much over this because she is uaually more robust than her slight frame suggests. However, it is inmportant to worm regularly and supplement food with tasty tit-bits.
