Virgo Month of Leisure (self link!). It has come to my attention that there are a lot of Virgos running around here with no idea that they are supposed to be RELAXING this month![More:]Look, you're super organized, maybe a little uptight (not in a BAD way or anything) and possibly you could use a little time off...

Well starting today you're entitled to lay on the couch, scratch your ass, eat Mallomars and do NOTHING until September 22nd. Or, if that is not a possibility, do as little as possible. SERIOUSLY. You need to take a little time off, let someone else do the arranging and the straightening for a change. You need this recharge time if you're going to keep being your awesome self the rest of the year. Let me know if you need a note for work or school. Ready, set, RELAX.

[and yes I screw this up pretty much every year, but you have to have goals, don't you?]
If psychics astrologers Virgos relaxed people are not scammers, then ban me right now.

*reminds Virgos in my life to frolic and gambol about, to and fro*

See, I've been doing just what you say I should be doing, but I didn't realize why.

There really is something to astrology after all!

I am a Virgo. This is not possible. September is the start of the theatre season. There are many things to be done. I'm *gearing* up for my year, not winding down! For me, the past few months were relatively relaxed (for me anyway.) My general manager is also a virgo. We understand each other so well, which makes it great to work for her!

But not spoiling anybody else's mallomar time! Happy mallomar-ing!

(The "Ready, Set RELAX" gives me shivers and makes my inner virgo cower in her organized closet. That reminds me, I have to take out my fall clothes!)

I shall commence to frolicking and gamboling henceforth.

I'm that one sign. You know... STOP.

Well Jess, my little sister is a virgo, but she just started at a fairly prestigious school...she's in preseason for sports and relaxing is the last thing on her mind. Guess I'd better send her the memo, huh?

typewriter, that is what they all say.

Heh. I will schedule some gamboling time. Let me just have a look at my calendar...

Working for a school district, and being responsible for a number of Summer projects, it is not possible to kick back in the way that I deserve. The months of August and September are packed, and it starts easing off into October. . . .I DO have a trip to Seattle the second week of October, and would not mind some help relaxing then. .(hint hint)

Well I'm a Virgo and I turn the big 4-0 on the 21st. I've taken the week off of my birthday because friends of mine and I had originally planned a trip to Montreal. This is the year that a string of us are turning 40, and we planned on doing something special for each birthday. My birthday plans fell through however because a few people couldn't take the time off of work. I still have the week off, and plan on just relaxing and spoiling myself. That's the best birthday present ever!

I'm Virgo, don't believe in astrology particularly, but the Virgo Month of Leisure is something I can totally adopt nonetheless. Have already booked four days in a fancy hotel where I don't have to do anything (ending on 22nd), which is a start, no? And work has been quiet this month, though that doesn't stop me being uptight about it... gah, maybe whole swathes of my personality *can* be defined by the month in which I was born, after all...

I have a Virgo moon. Do I get to relax or should I ban myself for even knowing that?

We recommend taking it easy this month, Virgo. Quit your job, or go on work slowdown.

Ooh, I'm a Virgo and recently went on a work slowdown. Starting the middle of the month I will only be working 5-8 hours a week. That's really slow and I like it. I hired a new cleaning person and I also informed the spouse that I will no longer be doing his laundry. He is very agreeable to this idea. I no longer care if he hangs his shirts properly or washes whites with red. Goodbye Virgo control-freak ways.

Thanks Virgo Month of Leisure.

If mygothlaundry doesn't moon us immediately, ban me right now!

Err, can us other signs relax too, or even those of us who don't subscribe to this stuff?

Relaxing is truly what life is about.
September be the start of the semester for me, I don't see much relaxing in the future for me. But I strive, I Strive!

Gentlemen (and some of the ladies), I know you know what state this cat is in. || In search of Malaysian iced coffee!
