September 1 Horoscope

As a Virgo born on September 1st, you are greatly appreciated for your generosity, discipline and quick mind. Your work ethic and attention to detail has earned you great praise from your employers and teachers, but your friends would say your generous nature is your best quality. In times when others are in need, you rarely hesitate to help in whatever way possible. Although you may not realize it, you often put the needs of your friends and family above your own!

Earth is your paired element and as a Virgo, you are the only zodiac sign with a fixed relationship with the element. Although Earth's influence may materialize in a bit of stubbornness, it can also be seen in your grounded practicality and levelheadedness. You take little refuge in the world of fantasy, instead preferring to create realistic expectations and goals. As you continue to embrace these positive qualities of Earth, they will grow to be among your greatest assets. Be weary of Earth's negative influences, which include cautiousness that runs the risk of becoming conservatism.

While Mercury is already the ruling planet of the Leo, because you were born in the first Decan, or part, of the sign, you actually receive a double serving of Mercury's planetary influence. As Mercury is the planet of communication, it is no surprise that you have an agile mind and great communication skills. You use your mental abilities to stay methodically focused on tasks that you feel are valuable. In the same light, Mercury's influence also connects with your ability to accurately understand and cater to the needs of others. As an earthly spirit, you will be greatly focused on the material, but should not hinder you from developing close, loyal relationships. Your ability to be caring, compassionate and dependable should be matched by worthwhile individuals.

While choosing a career is one of the most difficult aspects of life, your natural intellect, sociability and generosity are a great foundation for most careers. Your organization and discipline would be well-suited for the world of business or administration. As a people person by nature, you may find the most fulfillment in a career based on helping others, such was the path of Dr. Phil McGraw, who was also born on September 1st. In whichever career you choose, look to the discipline of undefeated boxing legend Rocky Marciano, another of your birthday twins, for inspiration.

The Sabian Symbol for your birthday is two heads looking out and beyond the shadows. It is only through the duality of inner and outer consciousness can you gain true understanding. If there is a darkness in your life, realize that light lies past the shadows.
