I don't think 'sad' is quite the word for it. I think it SEEMS like Virgos carry around some sadness with them because they are very keen on seeing the reality of things and simply accepting it as is (and perhaps improving it later). Whereas Pisces, their opposite sign, is all about illusion and romanticism and building everyone up around them, Virgo is more serious about seeing the truth in everyone around them. I read in an astrology book that to Virgos, truth is beauty and I think this is true. However, romanticism is far more attractive than reality, and I do believe this is why Pisces are the more favored of the two signs. I believe Virgos can be romantic, but their romance is built on loving someone or something else regardless of the reality of that person or situation(ie warts and all). I think this actually depresses some signs that need more flair and mystery to keep their ties strong. So... In other words- they all think we are killjoys. We call a spade a spade (usually). I actually really enjoy Oscar worthy dramas- because they portray emotions, love, and life REALISTICALLY even if it is somewhat depressing, instead of over the top Hollywood theatrics. I just connect to it easier. The water and air signs I know really don't understand this about me.

As far as the OCD goes- honestly, I've met more Aquas and Geminis that display true OCD tendencies. I think OCD is the generalization that gets put on Virgos because they are 'perfectionistic' and 'clean' but it doesn't really translate into reality that way.

To be honest, Virgos are generally very kind, honest, dutiful people. You'll find jerks in any sign, and we can be cranky and critical (among other things), but overall, I like other Virgos. They have a sweetness and a subtlety about them that many other signs don't have.

Yeah this is 100% right on. I was on the Michelle Knight website awhile ago and she did a vid on Virgo, and she got us spot on.
People just don't understand Virgos. We're actually not that complicated, nor are we 'sad' lol (I for one am terribly optimistic despite all I've been through). Also I like how if we like someone, we will show it, if we don't, we will act accordingly too. We are not duplicitous or scheming, we just want truth.

I am not sad inside...never was. I was bullied in school but I came out of it fine because I am an innerly happy and optimistic person.
I don't know any Virgos with OCD or any who are obsessed with their diets.
(btw if anyones interested - all the people with OCD or healthy diet obsession have been Cancers and Taurus' so far...no Virgo placements anywhere).

I would be interested why you think that we Virgos are sad, Ami.
It seems to be a common opinion in astrology...I'm trying to find out why.

EDIT:
sorry if this sounded aggressive! It's not meant to be. It's just my Mercury/Mars square kicking in.

Any sign can be sad, in fact all of us at some time will be sad, no one gets through life happy 100% of the time inanyevent.

"I don't know any Virgos with OCD or any who are obsessed with their diets."

caveat, sometimes they can develop OCD, quite often do have a thing about health and hygeine. I don't know anyone obsessed with diets either. there are lots of misconceptions out there...espec newbies make lots of mistakes and assumptions...

I tried to wash paper once after reading that they are the perfect vehicle for hospital germs (not just "normal germs omg). I kid you not. I soaked the stack of paper in disinfectant w/ hot water for like 15-20 minutes and rinsed x3 times.
