You Devoted Virgo:

(August  23- September 22)

This month’s colorway reflects Virgo’s analytical mind and desire for order within chaos.

Virgo requires a sacred space and loves to knit in silence. Don’t let their quiet fool you though, their mind is hard at work paying attention to detail and transforming the chaos of spun wool into a lovely and orderly knitted piece. We could all appreciate the routine that they devote to their craft, the hard workers that they are. 

The Virgo mind is a place of comfort as they learn to be the best person they can be. 

While the sun is in Virgo, those of all signs will note increased attention to detail and focus in both work and service to others. Find time to give service to others, and hope that we, too, can be as thoughtful and caring as Virgo. 

Because the Virgo mind is constantly running and tidying, they can benefit from aromatherapy that reflects nature, and the earth we live upon. Surround yourself with scents of patchouli, chamomile, rain, cedar, and grass. 

Do you love the zodiac and horoscopes on the blog?

We have been having so much fun since last December and the winter solstice in creating the Astrological series for you. I hope you’re enjoying it too, and if you are, make sure to join the conversation on the blog and on the Ravelry group. What’s your sign? Are you true to your zodiac? What characteristics of your sign would you most love to see in that colorway? I look forward to your input and inspiration!

As always, thank you for your support in this woman-owned and operated small business. We appreciate your support tremendously!
