Explore and discover Virgo, the sign everyone loves to hate because they tell us what to do, when to do it and how and the part that really pisses us off is that more often than not is that they’re right AGAIN. And remember we all have Virgo in our charts. Find where Virgo is in your chart to hear where you’re Virgo shows up and serves you.

As the quintessential vestal virgin, Virgo is a healer, sage, translator and researcher. You know how to take care of mind, body and spirit for now and for the future. Virgos can be like vegans. You know they are because they tell you the best way to do things. Yet they’ll shy away from accepting the accolade of being right AGAIN. And yay for Virgo, because where you have it in your chart you have the power to heal, make whole and do better and betterer, because Virgo gets off on diagnostics, figuring out what’s wrong and making it better. In business, in love and in life this makes everything sweeter because like a well oiled machine, it works. And we all not only need this energy to take care of ourselves so we can serve others - we want it. Let’s be honest, life’s just better when you know where you left your keys, the bills are paid, your calendar tells you what’s on today and dinner’s taken care of. Thomas Jefferson had this no nonsense hardworking sign down with his quote

“I’m a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work, the more I have of it.” 

They like to gather data, analyse, allocate and organise. Yes they are grounded and what’s more they are connected to spirit (when they don’t forget this)

Hi, and welcome to the discipline of freedom. Podcast. To create your spiral of success. At the intersection of creativity and commerce. Consciousness and communication. Through the lens of astrology yoga outcome. And brand strategy. With your host Eilish. Bouschet. Creative director, vision activator and the brand pioneer. Today, we're going to explore and discover a Virgo. The sign everyone loves to hate. Because they tell us what to do when to do it and how. And the part that really pisses us off. Is that more often than not us. They're right again. And remember, we all have Virgo in our charts. Listen to here. Where your Virgo shows up and serves you. And yes, we're at that halfway mark, the sixth sign of the 12 Zodiac signs. Virgo. Follows Leo cancer, Gemini Taurus and Aries. It's the second earth sign. Now workers usually have life down. But often they've got it so down. They've forgotten that life is not all about crossing the I's and dotting the T's. Oh, no, I always get that wrong. It's not all about crossing the T's and dotting the I's. But also doodling and drawing the most fantastical and imaginary characters from an earned ink splash are daring to dream. And imagine beyond anything you've been told, seen, or led to believe as possible, which is what this podcast is radio to bash. I always go back to Einstein's. Um, imagination is more important than knowledge because knowledge is limited to everything that you've known, seen, or Dom. And this is for Virgo. There it goes. And did missioning, no matter how well you've diagnosed, organized and how resourceful you are, you're overthinking. Perfectionist earth. Baby also wants to go roll in the mud and connect and feel all that is the beauty of mother earth. You know, you can always do the laundry. And so as the Quinson tential Vestal, Virgin Virgo is a healer, a siege, a translator and researcher. You know how to take care of the mind, body, and spirit for now and for the future. So virgos can sometimes be like vegans, you know, they are because they tell you the best way to do things. And yet they'll shy away from accepting the accolade of being right. Yet again. And yay for Virgo because where you have it in your chart, you have the power to heal. May Cole and do better and better because for go gets off on diagnostics, figuring out what's wrong and making it better. In every area of life in business in life and love. And this makes everything sweeter because like a well-oiled machine, it just goddamn works. And we owe not only need this energy to take care of ourselves so we can serve others. We want us. Because let's be honest. Let's just better. When you know where you left your keys, that the bills are paid. Your calendar tells you what's on today and that dinner's taken care of. Thomas Jefferson. Had this no nonsense hardworking, signed down with his coat. I'm a great believer in luck. And I find the harder I work, the more I have a fish. So Virgo, the sixth sign that follows the theatrical and sun baking hair, flicking giggle. Mimi me, look at me enough about you back to me. Leo. It's hard not to failure, like a bit dull and boring. When you follow the king of play. But focus have no time for that. Look at me nonsense that Leo indulges in and instead in true musical signed fashion, they want to get on with the job and focus on what's needed. Now. So you're ready for what's next. As I've mentioned before, my favorite Virgo characters, how many, the hamster in the kids' animated movie over the fence, where as soon as all the animals have. Woken up from hibernation out there, like the task master. He is armed. Rosie's clipboard. I signing jobs and tasks to ensure everything is ready for the next hibernation. No time for fun. We've got work to do. So focus like to gather data, they like to analyze allocation, organize. Yes, they're grounded and what's more, they're connected to spirit when they don't forget this. So cosmic seekers, that's ground and connect to the earth. So breathe. Deep in nature, your feet connect to the earth. Bring that breath down deep into your belly. And now exhale. And let's dive in. Welcome to another. And lightning episode of the discipline of freedom podcast. It's with me or was he at. Why's hose. and today we're diving into the world of the vocal archetype. And remember that nobody begins as an expert. So when you're learning, you must always start as an apprentice. And then you move into the space of where, you know, you've got the technical skills down. But it's not until you move into the space of mastery that there you're in your flow. So grab your notebooks. And your favorite horrible T E because we're about to unravel the secrets of wisdom. Healing and organized magic. And don't let anyone tell you that organization is not magical. So Virgo is the analytical genius of the Zodiac. This earth sign holds the key to wisdom healing daily practice. And the art of organizing chaos and every new concurrently of life work and love. But just like a brilliant scientist Vergos journey takes them from the rum of the unskillful to the rum of, to mastery. As James clear of atomic habits would say. The most invisible form of waste of time is doing a good job. On a non-important task. So when skillfully expressed. Vercoe and bodies keen intelligence practicality. They've a gift for healing and bringing order to chaos with their meticulous attention to detail. Check at once, check a twice, or maybe even Trice. Yet when unskillful for a good could become overly critical perfectionist and stuck in the whirlwind. Of overthinking and doubting every decision they've made. They're high standards can make them super hard on themselves and on others. As Virgos embark on their archetypal journey. They navigate the path from unskillful to scuffle. Like, oh, all the signs by applying the principles of the UMAS. And the yamas which are covered in the first few episodes. They learn to embrace the AMA, have a paragraph which is non-attachment. Which is letting go of the need for perfection and accepting imperfections. In their quest for healing. They cultivate the niyama of isparta planted them. Huh? Which is surrendering to a higher power. And this allows them to release their tight grip, uncontrolled and enter into the flow of life. So just a few details about, Fargo. It's ruled by the planet mercury. So it's intelligence and trade it's analytical and logical it's mantra is I serve. And when they're doing this rice first, they're serving themselves to make sure they're mind, body and spirit are all super healthy, aligned, and balanced. And then they're in a great position to serve others. The energy polarity is yin. It's feminine. The element is earth as we've spoken about before. And the quality is mutual, which means it's a flexible sign. It's adaptable. It's preparing for change of season. Whether in the Northern or the Southern hemispheres. The anatomy that is rules is the abdomen and bowels, which makes sense in terms of, you know, Kind of. Clearing things out. I was making everything sure that everything is in working order. The gemstone is a yellow Safa. And the scent. Think in terms of like, just again, breathe into and, you know, Imagine those light flowers and Massey green fragrances with a deep forest vibe. Virgo is a more refined or a sign than, than tourists. They smell earth in grounded. Because they are. So now let's explore the experiences that a Virgo brand naturally offers. Virgo brand excels and providing wisdom. Healing and practical solutions that help clients improve their daily lives. Very often seen as the Sage. I always say wisdom is knowledge applied. It's embodied knowledge. It's experiential wisdom. Our experiential knowledge, You've got to apply what, you know, you've got to experiment with it. So that, you know, what works and what doesn't work. So. From wellness, coaching and organizational tools to educational resources and holistic therapies. Virgos have a knack for delivering structured guidance. So, let me repeat that. It's structured guidance. They're really good at breaking things down and delivering in a way, like in bite-sized ways so that people can digest us. So if we meet the archetype characters of. Of the Virgo brand. The first one up is the Sage. And this brand exudes wisdom and deep insights. So it's guide and clients on a journey of self discovery and growth. They Excel in all areas of health and wellness, life coaching or online courses. Offering transformative knowledge and example of the Sage archetype is depressed show PRA. Would you who's well-known for his spiritual teaching and his allistic approach to wellbeing. Next up would be the healer, which focuses on holistic wellness and offers methods to heal the mind body and the soul. And they shine in industries like alternative medicine or energy healing, providing a nurturing space for clients to find balance. And remember what they'll do is they'll blend. The magical with the practical and the mystical with the material. So influential figures like Joe Dispenza, embody the healer archetype with his blend. Of science and mysticism. He does this so beautifully. So it can't be refused us because people can see oh, right. That makes sense. From both sides of the argument. Next we have the translator and the translator is a perfect one for, Virgo, because what it's doing is it's decoding, data. This brand simplifies complex concepts and translates them into practical tools for everyday use. I remember that Virgo rules, the sixth house, which is about daily practice, daily health, how we are at work, our employees and how the day works. They Excel in industries like self-help books or productivity apps. Making valuable knowledge accessible tool. Marie Forleo is a prime example of the translator archetype. She works in the area of breaking down business practices. So they're digestible for people who might never have studied business before. Our final one is the researcher. And this is again, such a natural archetype. For a Virgo. Diving deep into data and information to provide evidence-based solutions. They thrive in industries like scientific research or data analysis, offering clarity and insights. So brands like national geographic epitomized, the researcher archetype. And in this algorithm, data driven world. Virgos are like the proverbial pigs in a puddle, and we all need to evoke the Virgo in us to make sense of our data. You know, if you're a creative, you need to know how those Instagram posts are going. You know, it's always around diagnosis and analysis. So moving right along, let's connect Virgo with our senses. So if you're creating a brand to appeal to Virgo people, You need to engage their senses, emotionally Virgo, evokes feelings of clarity. Stability and healing. They created an atmosphere of practicality and support. Where clients can relax and find solace and solutions to make change. Using colors. Earthy colors, calming greens and Browns, jewel tones, reflecting. This grounded and nurturing nature. People want to feel safe. That's what Virgos do people. Feel that they're taken care of that their supporters. In terms of sound, it might be rustling leaves at the sound of flowing water. With perfectly capture the essence of Virgo, soothing and healing presence. The aromas of fresh herbs at the taste of a. Have a home cooked meal, evoke feelings of nourishment and restoration. Which resonate deeply. With this Virgo healing energy. In the Marcus. Virgo architects are perceived as knowledgeable. Reliable and practical guides. They attract clients who seek solutions to everyday problems. And desirous sense of order and structure in their lives. So ideal clients for Virgo brand, or individuals looking for wisdom, healing and practical tools. To enhance their wellbeing. Pisces is the relational opposite on the zodiacal. Access of service and health and these two rules, physical and mental vitality. So Pisces is the dreamer Pisces. wants to go into the vision and make it real. And Virgo will give the practical tools, the practical systems and structures, so you can bring it into realization. So these are often in service to others, but teach the importance that the dance of giving and receiving teachers. So understanding the intrinsic balance between Pisces emotional sensitivity. And imagination alongside. Virgos practical logic. Becomes crucial for this duo to experience and embody. They make ideal clients for each other. So one doesn't get lost in a cloud of fancy, which is the unskillful expression of Pisces. And so that Virgos don't get so stuck in the Drury details of daily life. They lose all access to their imagination. And this brings us to the tarot card associations with Virgo, which is the hormone. Which is embodying the essence of Virgo. Representing their introspection because you can't diagnose do analysis and you can't allocate resources without coming back to reality. And this Harmer card represents their introspection. Wisdom and ability to shine a light on the path of others. The mythical archetype. His hygiene, the Greek goddess who embodies the essence of Fargo. And hygiene is the goddess of good health. Cleanliness and sanitation, symbolizing, Virgos healing, and purifying qualities. So a Maurice and yourself, and the essence of Virgo requires you to surround yourself with organized. And serene environments, like a cozy studio are a forest garden. And so curious those. That wraps up our journey into the insightful world. Of the Virgo archetype.
