Traits your Soulmate should have according to your Virgo Descendant
If you have a Virgo Descendant, you also have a Pisces Ascendant/ Rising because, Virgo is opposite Pisces in a birth chart. Before I unveil what, your Virgo Descendant reveals about your soulmate’s traits, I’ll set the stage by telling you about what your Pisces Ascendant reveals. It’s important to know what your Pisces Ascendant means because, your Virgo Descendant reveals the opposite.
As a Pisces Ascendant/ Rising you are somewhat introverted and shy. You don’t feel comfortable with putting yourself out in the world. This is mostly because, your demeanor tends to be very emotional or dramatic about certain situations in life. As a Pisces Ascendant it’s easy for you to be guided by your emotions. This way you tend to think that if people don’t pay attention to you, they don’t like you (even if it isn’t true). For this reason, you find it better suited to be reserved and held back when it comes to showing your personality in public. Only when people have proved themself and when you get a sense of them liking you, you warm up to them. When you meet new people, you’re not a big talker or someone who engages deeply, you’d be more likely to observe. But when you’re around people you’ve been friends with for a long time, you’re very open and can engage in a deep way. This all because, of your heightened emotional senses. What I mean by this, is that you use your emotions and the feelings that other people give off, as a way to deal with the world. For example, when a Pisces Ascendant is ignored once, in future situations they tend to be held back from doing the same thing that got them ignored. As you can see this amplified reaction is due to their heightened emotional state.
Your Virgo Descendant on the other hand, will guide you towards someone that is less emotional and more rational. Your soulmate tends to be meticulous and particular about what they believe; they’re not easily guided by their intuition or emotions. Your Virgo Descendant means that someone should be rational and calculated if they want to be a good addition in your life. This actually makes sense because, they give something you can’t give yourself. Your Virgo Descendant guides you towards someone with a more rational approach to life because, you tend to be in need of this. Therefore, your soulmate can help you see that it isn’t obvious, to blindly rely on your emotional senses. Sometimes you really need to have more proof or logic before, drawing conclusions. Your soulmate can help you explore this rational side of yourself because, you haven’t explored it yourself. And the best part of this, is that with your soulmate you might feel more comfortable to explore this side of yourself. As you can see your Virgo Descendant guides you towards someone that is more rational than you because, you are mostly emotional. These are opposing traits, yet both of them need to be balanced in your life.
Traits your BFF should have according to your Virgo Descendant
Your Virgo Descendant will guide you toward a Best Friend Forever (BFF) that is rational and full of logic. Your BFF tends to the world for what it is and makes sense of the world based on logic. Your Virgo Descendant guides you toward this type of BFF because, they have something you don’t have (so they can transfer it to you). Your BFF doesn’t like to draw conclusions too quickly or to form patterns where there aren’t commonalities. They’re very held back in the way they approach their thinking and mindfulness. As you can see your Virgo Descendant guides to you toward a BFF, that can help you explore another side of yourself. The goal here is, that you get more familiar with balancing the emotional and rational sides of who you are. You already house the emotional side (thanks to your Pisces Ascendant/ Rising) and your BFF will help you explore your rational side (thanks to your Virgo Descendant).
