The blue comes from 甲, a tall tree. You grow straight up, even when no one is watching. The dog (戌): loyal and protective — your people are safe with you. Virgo is earth: you notice the small things and quietly make them better.

When the Blue Dog fights

When you fightYou can't let wrong things pass.You get angrier when someone else is treated unfairly than when you are.

How you're misreadPeople say you're rigid.You believe keeping principles is how you keep people safe.

Your strength in a conflictYou take their side.Even in a fight, you stand up for whoever is weaker.

What Virgo addsYou point out what's wrong, item by item.Virgo earth makes you more exacting. One thank-you for every fix.

One small stepBefore right and wrong: "How did that feel for you?"
