HOROSCOPE<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Virgo’s paired element is Earth and in fact, you are the only zodiac sign with fixed relationship to the element. At times you are the perfect representation of “down to Earth.” You are practical and rational in your expectations and goals. You find great comfort in being grounded, which is why stability is one of your most important needs. Embracing these positive qualities of Earth will allow you to achieve what you have envisioned for yourself. Take care to avoid the negative qualities of Earth, which included becoming overly cautious and safe in all aspects of life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
