What's in pockets of a Virgo

A colleague of mine, who has been ever very sceptical about astrology, has ascendent in Virgo. Well, if you look at any sun-sign description of Virgo, it will tell you about “great practicality”, “attention to detail”, etc (including criticism, yes). And this is valid not only for those who have Sun in Virgo, but also if other essential points of the horoscope, like ascendent or the Moon, are placed in the sign.

Not surprisingly, it was quite natural for the colleague to always wear a belt-bag with lots of useful bits and pieces. Once I asked him with laugh whether he had manicure scissors there – indeed, he had! Later he added a more spacious waistcoat with a dozen of pockets.

I thought, oh, I know yet another person in a waistcoat with a dozen of pockets, famous journalist Wasserman!

I sent this picture to the colleague, saying that Wasserman should have “something in Virgo”. The colleague was sceptical again, but he helped a lot when he found the birthdata of Wasserman. The guy was born on 09.12.1952 at 3.30am in Odessa. And what is in Virgo in his chart? The Moon!

Zodiac

Under this title, I expected something mystical and maybe even star-related. No, the film was a disappointment: overlong, filled with details crime plot, finally giving an expected answer. Many minor personages appear and disappear, confirming it is a true story – too true to be artistic. One should mention good work of design team which accurately reproduced all the vending machines, street lights, and cars through more than 20 years – it was certainly one of the concerns of the director. Also, the episode in the basement is a nice piece of horror – unfortunately, the only one.

I do not quite understand why people become obsessed with such crimes – obsessed enough to think about it, to write about it, and to make a movie about it. There should be great love for justice – and for detail. There are so many tragedies and injustices in this world, that a particular maniac, who even died long time ago, seem to be a pointless figure.

To film the story written by Robert Graysmith, director David Fincher should have something in common with him - and he does. The guys are both Virgos (sign of detail lovers), with Suns aspected by very strong Jupiters (which gives love for justice). Also, Fincher got Venus in Libra and Mercury in Virgo, whereas in Graysmith’s chart Mercury and Venus are in reception in Libra and Virgo.

Justice is worth fighting for it, even for 20 years, yes. But when details become dominating, good intentions turn into boredom.
