Virgo

Virginis incorruptus*, like Georgie's ax, we cannot lie,
Instinctive Leo in descent positioned Libra's meant vie,
Reliable, efficient, rational, and passive ally,
Grossly stubborn and sarcastic, calculating by and by,
Overthinkers, worrywart...best and worst, we identify.

*virginis incorruptus (Latin: virgin uncorrupted) essentially means innocence

Aloha William! Love the beginning line and everything flows from that creative start. You and my Virgo mother-in-law have much in common. Thank you for the journey of discovery into the life and times of a Virgo. Congratulations on your win!

Ah, mother-in-law's, the word, in and of itself is formidable, regardless of the stars though, at times, I believe mines came from a 13th symbol? Thanks, Sam, and kudos to your well-deserved 1st Place my friend, Aloha!

Poor Leo, too short for a meaningful post as the signs was in the stars, --thanks aplenty, Charlotte, Aloha!

aha, another Virgo in my midst!! Awesome, William. My son is right on the cusp. He missed Leo by one day going into Virgo. I am more in the middle of Virgo.

Andrea, I will read yours after the results are listed, cusp birthers seemingly pull, either way, the subsequent contrast provides a much clearer perspective of each sign, now the choice--aha! Thanks, aplenty mon ami, Aloha!
