About Virgo

Virgo is the sign that astrologers link with detail, service and order. Its people are described as careful and modest, with a sharp eye for what can be improved.

Reliability, a practical mind and a strong sense of duty are the strengths named for Virgo. The weak side is worry: a Virgo can be hard on itself and on others.

Decan and Sun position

In 2026, the Sun is at 4°53′ Virgo at noon on 28 August in the time zone of Hong Kong. A decan is a part of 10 degrees, and each sign has three. In the traditional system, a decan adds the character of the sign of the same element that goes with it. The first decan belongs to Virgo itself, so its traits show most clearly.
