Virgo in the sidereal zodiac

A calculation-focused reference for Virgo: its 30° span, traditional element and mode, and how a chart assigns it.

What the sign label means

The sixth sidereal sign. The sign label is a calculated coordinate; any life interpretation is a separate step.

A body is listed in Virgo when its normalized sidereal longitude falls from 150°00′ up to—but not including—180°00′. The exact degree within the sign remains important, particularly near either edge.

Sign is not the same as house

The sign is a fixed part of the 360° circle. In a whole-sign chart, the house number depends on the ascendant: the rising sign is house one, and the following signs are numbered in order. Virgo can therefore be a different house in different birth charts.

Element and mode are traditional classification labels. They do not, on their own, establish a personality or predict an event.
