Virgo man profile - personality traits & characteristics

The Virgo man has a fantastic eye for detail and enjoys order, precision and efficiency in all things. He's particularly fond of routines and lists. He may even have a list of his lists! He is likely to be fairly reserved, and may be uncomfortable receiving too much attention, perhaps embarrassing easily. He will be a highly practical person, and will never display any irrational or emotional outbursts in public.

Analytical, discriminating, precise, considerate, punctual and reliable, he will have an above average amount of common sense, and is likely to enjoy work of a technical or analytical nature, quite possibly working behind the scenes to ensure the efficiency of an organization, rather than taking center stage.

Virgo is an intellectual sign, and this mans fast mind can find humor in most things, and often empathize with others more than his emotions alone would allow. He may have a tendency to have trouble relaxing, needing to force himself not to think of how things can be improved, or critically analyze his recent performance of a task. He often hates wasting time, or sitting idle.

The Virgo man appreciates and seeks perfection in all things, and a necessary step towards that is being somewhat critical. This usually applies doubly to himself and his own performance where he can be very self critical. Later in life he's likely to look much younger than he really is, this is a sign which ages well.

On the negative side, he can sometimes be seen as picky, aloof, sarcastic, depressed, pessimistic or whiny. He assumes everyone views him with the same critical eye that he posseses, which can sap his self confidence. Ironically, he is likely to be more perfect than most of us, yet he's the only one who can’t see it. This level of self imposed modesty can be particularly endearing.

Virgo man as a lover

The Virgo man is a particularly loyal person, who gets much satisfaction from helping and caring for others. As in all things, he will analyze love and seek perfection. This is of course a difficult area to do either, and as a result he can be particularly hesitant and stand-offish until he's comfortable with a partner.

Virgo man sexuality

Virgos are often portrayed poorly in this area, directly or indirectly considered the least sexual of all the signs. While it’s true they often dislike getting too emotional, vulgar or passionate, this is only because they tend to have a very tight ‘feedback’ loop running, to monitor and censor themselves constantly. Despite this they often place a very high value on the sexual side of a relationship. Don't make the mistake of assuming he's a prude!

Virgo men are often more comfortable with a confident lover than the men of some other signs. Equally however they can be very domineering lovers. To a large degree this depends on the feedback they get from a partner. Criticism can do a lot of harm, while encouragement pays big dividends (unlike many guys, this one actually listens!)

If you have a particularly hesitant Virgo man, then it's worth noting he may be more comfortable being asked to do something rather than initiating sexual acts himself. In these cases the ‘cleaner’ you can keep his conscience, the less inhibited he will be.

Ideal partner

Virgo men tend to be independent and free thinking, and appreciate the same in a partner. Conversation and intellectual connection tends to be more important to them than with most guys. They tend to mesh well with a partner who appreciates their hardworking, down to earth style, and fast and clever mind.

Using astrology to really understand a Virgo man

It’s important to note that we’re only considering a persons sun sign in this article. There are many other planets which can have an equal or greater effect on their personality. Makes sense, as ultimately everyone is of course unique.

Your own personality is also a significant factor. How you see someone, and how they see you is a matter of personal perspective. It’s why you may think someone is wonderful, while your friend can’t see it.

To fully understand someone or how compatible you are with them (the two are ultimately the same thing) we need to calculate those other planet placements from their date of birth, and compare them to your own, and then interpret the results.

This unlocks the real power of astrology, and gives much more useful and specific information – everything from how they view you, how to turn them on, how to avoid arguments etc. If you would like to explore this further please see the astrology compatibility reports page.
