So, I got this idea in my head about Virgo and Tarot cards. Don’t ask me why, it just popped up. I’m a Virgo Rising myself, maybe that’s why I got curious. I started thinking, are there specific Virgo tarot cards? Like, a deck just for Virgos?
First thing I did was hop online. Searched around a bit. Found lots of articles talking about Virgo associations in tarot, you know? Like The Hermit card often being linked to Virgo. Makes sense, right? That solitary, analytical vibe.
Digging into the Cards
But a dedicated deck? Nah, not really finding one that screamed “official Virgo deck”. Lots of zodiac-themed decks, sure, but nothing that felt like the Virgo deck I was picturing. Kind of a bummer, honestly. I thought maybe I was missing something obvious.
So, I changed tactics. Instead of looking for a specific deck, I decided to just work with my standard Rider-Waite-Smith deck. My thinking was, okay, let’s pull cards specifically asking about Virgo energy, or maybe focusing on the Virgo parts of my own chart.
I started pulling cards daily, just asking “Show me the Virgo vibe today”. It was interesting. What I noticed:
- The Hermit did show up, but not as much as I expected.
- Lots of Pentacles cards came up. Especially the Knights and Queens, sometimes the Pages. That felt right – earthy, practical, detailed work.
- Swords popped up too, usually the analytical ones like the Queen of Swords. Again, made sense for that sharp Virgo mind.
The Actual Practice Bit
It wasn’t just about identifying cards, though. I tried doing readings with that Virgo lens. Like, if I pulled The Lovers, instead of just the usual relationship stuff, I’d ask, “Okay, what’s the Virgo take on this choice? What needs analyzing here? What are the practical details being overlooked?”
It felt different. Made me think about the cards in a new way. Less about grand, sweeping themes sometimes, and more about the nitty-gritty details, the service aspect, the systems behind things. It felt very… precise.
I spent maybe two weeks just doing this. Journaling about the pulls, seeing how the energy felt day-to-day. Sometimes it was spot on, highlighting stuff I needed to organize or fix. Other times, it felt a bit too focused, maybe missing the bigger emotional picture. But that’s Virgo too, isn’t it? Can get lost in the details.
So, yeah. Didn’t find a magic “Virgo Tarot Deck”. But digging into the theme with a regular deck? That was pretty insightful. Showed me you don’t always need a specialized tool, just a different way of looking at the tools you already have. It was a good little experiment, learned a bit more about Virgo, and a bit more about Tarot too.
