Year 7 can be an exciting time! With any year it can be all in how you look at it, but I find excitement associated with year 7. You have the opportunity to gain new experience and knowledge. You can advance in so many areas and feel better about you and your circumstances. What can be scary is events that can bring about the most change and growth can be more extreme. Try not to be apprehensive because I truly believe you will be ready to handle whatever challenges your path comes accross. As far as searching for some big secret about yourself. It is not some "out there" happening. Maybe take some stock at where your at. Review where you have been and where you are going. It doesnt require a extreme effort or necessarily a big ritualistic event. Focus on on your intentions. Are the things that fill your mind leading you where you want to go? What we think about most, with emotion, is where we are headed. Do you know where you want to go from where you are at? We must first know where we are headed to be able to take action to get there. Become aware of yourself and your surroundings. If you are open you will learn and understand more naturally. You may have some dramatic revelation but it can be quite pleasant to understand more about yourself and your place in the world. If the opportunity to engage in some new activities or something different that sounds interesting, get involved. You will gain more than you will lose. If you isolate yourself or become mistrusting of people and the process you will be less likely to be at peace. It is well worth your effort. You could very well look back and think "Wow! what a great year!".

Thanks for your post Donna!

I am so sorry you are having such a rough time. It is true we get back what we put out, but I do not believe that is the totality of it. Virgos are such perfectionist I believe we have a hard time giving ourselves a break. As a virgo it has been hard to love myself because I am my own worst critic. Truly loving and caring for ourselves is a key to attracting someone who will adore us. We all have subconscious belief that bring us difficulty. I have had many relationships that have ended because the guy(s) have cheated on me. On one hand I want to believe that Mr. right is out there for me but on the other hand it is hard not to look at men as lying cheating dogs. These two conflict with each other and until I can get that belief out of my head then I will continue to attract those kind of men. I believe it is that way with everything. You may feel like you have been given a bum wrap but we do create our own reality. That is hard to swallow but in turn can be a wonderful blessing. Holding onto attachments and expectations of "how things are suppose to be" create issues too. If we can be at peace with things as they are we do ourselves a great favor. Some things that might be helpful for you is Louise Hay's book You Can Heal Your Life, Esther and Jerry Hicks "law of Attraction series and Joe Vitale on Attracting Wealth. I believe you have a long road ahead of you before things look up. That I know will not be comforting, but I am not one to sugar coat. However, if you make some small changes day to day it will not seem so devastating and hopeless. Have faith that the informationa and people you need will come your way and you will look back on this time as something that made you stronger and you will be happy you did not end it all......peace and love

If you think it is bad experiencing life with a Virgo, try being one! Being a Virgo I am very analytical, organized and many times have been an unwavering perfectionist. The expectations I have had for myself is far more ridgid than I have for others. I can walk into a room and totally analyze that room and situation within minutes. If I come back into that same room the next day I can instantly tell you what is different, even if something is moved even slightly. This is not something I do with intention or with the idea that I am going to pick out things that are "wrong", but a natural type of awareness. The upside to this is that I can quickly get a sense to what needs to be done and get with it when it does come to problem solving. Choas makes me uncomfortable. I feel unbalanced when things are out of order. I can not work or live in an environment that does not have some kind of order. Imagine a cat hanging onto a screen door with the wind blowing. Now it is true, never being a cat, that I can not truly imagine what that is like, but chaos puts me in a state that I feel no control and that is very important for this Virgo. So whereas I am not trying to be mean to others when I am out of sorts with chaos I am truly feeling like that cat swinging in the wind until I can maintain some order. I am great in a situation that is so big that most people do not even know where to start. Not only does this Virgo know how to get to the root of the situation very quickly but also to keep this in a way that keeps a flow going with organized efforts. Perfectionism is something we all know that can not be obtained however it is a constant attempt for this Virgo. At times I have driven others crazy and myself in the process. Continuously analyzing and thinking VIrgos keep striving to "get it right". Most of the time, In my own mind, I have no benchmarks to compare myself to. I am constantly looking for a better way or a higher plain. It can be maddening. It is easy to say "just accept things the way they are", but when I know things could be better I can not accept anything less. This may be where it appears there is insecurity. It is not so much a matter of insecurity but a knowing that there is always something better.

As I have grown older I find it really silly to say that in my younger years I really thought that others had the same analytical, organized and perfectionist qualities that I have. I alienated many people with my expectations and demands. What I came to find out is not many people notice that fuzz on the carpet, nor do they care. Most people are satisfied with "good enough" outcomes and "everything in its place" really isn't a big deal to most others either. Until I got all that I was ruthless in "helping" people understand that they needed to be like me. This caused me and others a lot of heartache.

At this point in my life I use the skills I have to my advantage with an attempt not to inflict terror onto others who are not like me. I still have high expectations of myself and strive everyday to be the best I can be in every situation. Depending on the circumstances of a lot of factors my best varies. I do not inflict these same expectations of others. However, I do have people at my job who tell me to stop doing so much because they say I make them look bad. I feel that is a personal issue that they need to deal with themselves. I do not even imply others should do the things that I do and I do not take it personally that others can not accept me for what I am. In the end I must be good with myself.

Maybe, when you come accross these Virgo types you can help them understand a different way of looking at the world. It is ok when everything is not perfect or highly organized. Understand though that Virgos can be so driven in these areas that they feel out of control and it is enough to make them crazy. So try not to take it personally and allow it to effect your inner peace. It is a Virgo thing.
