What is your body telling you? Virgo is the sign of the healing, since it's tuned in to the nuances of the body and it's processes. Virgo's analytic energy helps you to see where there's disharmony, and come up with your own path to wellness.
Christine Page is a physician who has re-integrated the wisdom of astrology in her practice. She writes about the symbolism of Virgo as part of the descent cycle of the Zodiac. She writes that "Virgin and Crone hold open the portal to the underworld, emphasizing the importance of accepting all pieces of the self into our hearts." The dis-ease and dis-harmony we feel is an invitation to seek the cure, by tuning into the inner healer.
Page writes, "Many modern diseases, including depression, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, endocrine imbalances, and other immune-based illnesses reflect a separation from our soul's path as well as a reluctance to let go and trust the inner wisdom of the Virgin."
Coming home to rest in the center of the self allows you to tune in to the root causes of your ailments. You can see the body as an interdependent system, and come up with practical strategies to resolve what's ailing you.
