Gift Ideas for the Virgo in Your Life

Written by Kate Curry

Listen up! It’s Virgo season and the name of the game is focus, focus, focus! Virgos are roaming about and planning for anything and everything that can go wrong. They deserve to relax (as much as they possibly can) and it’s the best time to give these hardworking deities a much needed gift!  

Virgos are artistic, logical, and hardworking people that live to be responsible and dependable. Your Virgo could be a multitasking wizard who can handle 5 problems at once or they could be a strict artist that has to work on one project at a time until it's perfect. 

Either way, we have a ton of gorgeous gift options for your Virgo! 

What Type of Sign is A Virgo?

Born from August 23 to September 22, Virgos are symbolized not by an animal like the majority of the zodiac, but of a maiden gathering wheat. Described as logical, critical, and hardworking, Virgos love to burn the midnight oil and get as much done as possible. It will be hard to get a Virgo to relax until they’re ready. 

Associated with the Earth, Virgos are grounded, methodical, and responsible. Due to their incredible nature, Virgos excel as analysts, teachers, doctors, editors, musicians, and artists of all types. 

Earth sign traits, which also include Taurus and Virgos, are commonly associated with: 

  • Organized 
  • Wise 
  • Grounded 
  • Truthful 
  • Hardworking 
  • Reliable

Governed by Mercury, which is the planet known for ruling communication, creativity, and the process of information, Virgos are perfectionists at retaining and using information. If you need help, Virgos are the perfect people to call and they will be happy to help you in any way they can. Do you need help organizing your life? Awesome - they have a color coded chart. Need help putting together furniture? Don’t worry, they have every tool known to man and they have read the instructions no less than three times. Talk about an overachiever!

What Are The Characteristics of Virgo

Like a hardworking farmer, Virgos take personal pride in their toils. Organized, precise, and kind, every team needs a Virgo or two in their ranks to stay on task. They can help temper any personality conflicts that might arise and have a plan of action. Much like their earth trait cousins, Virgos are hard workers that are always thinking about their next task. They know what they have to do to grow and they are determined to get to that next step. Known for their loyalty and kindness, Virgos are not the heartless workers that people might mistake them for. All the hard work they do is often for other people. Due to their nature, they can be very anxious and overly self-critical. They need to make sure that they cut themselves some slack and know when it’s time to stop working - at least for a little bit.

Best Gifts For A Virgo

Now that you have a little more info about Virgos, you only need to know a little more before you can find the perfect gift that will wow your Virgo! Let’s take a look at the birthstones and color palettes of the Virgo- this info might help you out a little more!

The Virgo Color Palette

The Virgo Color Palette 
  • Earthen Brown (warm, earthy browns that will help keep the mind grounded) 
  • Gray (shades of steely grays and dark metal to offer stability and security)
  • Forest Green (any shade that can be found in nature, think of leaves, grass, and other plants)

Virgo Birthstones

  • Green Aventurine
  • Moss Agate
  • Fluorite

Providing strength, courage, and happiness, Green Aventurine is the perfect stone for a Virgo. This crystal will help push your Virgo out of their comfort zone and take action! Say goodbye to that self doubt and insecurity.

Moss Agate can also help with soothing a Virgo. Known as a lucky stone, this agate can encourage emotional balance and tranquility. Who doesn’t need a little help balancing? 

Finally, your Virgo is going to need a Fluorite crystal. These perfect little stones are known for helping clarify your thoughts as well as enhance them. Virgos are constantly thinking and having this little sparkling stone could help them focus on one issue at a time. 

I’ve got a few more tips for you before you start your gift hunting! Virgos love solving puzzles and problems, animals, cleanliness, and nature. They dislike mess, being the center of attention, unhelpful people, and aggression. These amazing harvesters need someone to show them they are special, even when they’re relaxing and taking some time for themselves instead of solving everyone else's problems.
