The traditional perspective on Virgo is that it is associated with critical thought, perfectionism and hard work. Virgo is an earth sign, so Virgoans tend to be practical, both personally and professionally, but this may also manifest as pettiness.
The higher perspective on Virgo is that it gives birth to the inner Christ Consciousness, nurturing the development of the Soul. As an earth sign, Virgo is about bringing the higher into physical manifestation. It also relates to inner purification, cleansing the lower self of impurities which block the shining of the inner Light.
Hence the strong associations with Christianity, because the past 2,000 years have been the Age of Pisces which is the opposite sign to Virgo. So in the West this has dominated as the idea of the Virgin giving birth to the Christ.
So perhaps don't be too critical of your Virgo - look to the higher aspects.

Thank you I appreciate your summery. My thing is with the symbol of the Virgo is that it's also been called the Wheat Barrier cause of the grain of tassel the maiden carries. Or called 'The Harvester'
There is more to the Virgo than just being a symbolism of purity.
