Those instructions might as well be inscribed in a manual for how to woo your lover when cosmic messenger <a\nhref=\"http:\/\/sasstrology.com\/mercury\">Mercury<\/a> moves through his earthy home of <a\nhref=\"http:\/\/sasstrology.com\/virgo-man-woman\">Virgo<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Mercury is said to be exalted in Virgo, where this planet of mental acuity functions at his best. The ability to take multiple strands of information and to organize them into one cohesive framework is part of Mercury\u2019s magic in this intelligent sign. That may not sound sexy, but it\u2019s foreplay to people who are born with lots of Virgo energy. Reveal that you\u2019ve got smarts and you\u2019ll quickly grab the attention of your Virgo sweetheart.<\/p>\n<p>Just don\u2019t be all show-offy about it. Virgos aren\u2019t into braggarts, no matter how much intellectual prowess you demonstrate. Don\u2019t try to outsmart or push your ideas onto them. It\u2019s enough if you have a flair for words and you actually know how to spell them. Throw in a bit of dry humor or irony, and your Virgo mate will quickly notice there\u2019s a big brain hiding under your locks.<\/p>\n<p>Not that size is the greatest virtue to a Virgo. It was probably a Virgo who coined the term <em>quality over quantity<\/em>. And it\u2019s not just the quality of your mental apparatus that a Virgo will evaluate; there\u2019s got to be some evidence that you enjoy lending a hand, too. Playing the role of the Good Samaritan is a high priority to those with strong Virgo energy. So, if you occasionally prepare a sandwich for the homeless person you regularly see on a certain street corner, your Virgo\u2019s heart will melt.<\/p>\n<p>Mind you, there\u2019s a potential pitfall: when Mercury moves through Virgo, some people turn helping one\u2019s neighbor into an extreme sport. On paper that all looks fine but you might be mistaken for a busybody. Ouch, so much for good intentions.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a delicate balance that Virgo grapples with: finding that fine line between being of service versus overextending yourself or venturing into nitpicking territory. There\u2019s some trial and effort before you get it just right. Thankfully, whenever Mercury transits Virgo, you get a boost of mutable energy that helps you adapt reasonably enough to the situation you\u2019re in.<\/p>\n<p>Virgo\u2019s standards are high. But you\u2019re well on your way to earning their respect and hearts when you cherish their values. Keep in mind that smart is sexy; helping is wholesome; and freshly showered bodies on clean sheets will go far towards getting down and dirty with your Virgo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Smart is sexy; helping is wholesome; and freshly showered bodies on clean sheets will go far towards getting down and dirty when Mercury is in Virgo.<\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link-p\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/?p=43423\">Read more &rarr;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":75,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[],"tags":[645],"class_list":["post-43423","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","tag-mercury"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pekXVE-bin","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43423","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/75"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=43423"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43423\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":43435,"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43423\/revisions\/43435"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=43423"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=43423"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=43423"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
