Lucky numbers by zodiac sign
Virgo Lucky Numbers
Virgo runs from August 23 to September 22 and is an Earth sign. Astrology gives it Mercury as its ruler, the same planet as Gemini, but in Virgo the emphasis is usually on detail, analysis and practical care. Here you can see which numbers tradition connects with Mercury, and so with Virgo, and exactly how they are worked out.
Cheiro's planet tables give Mercury the number 5. Every number up to 49 that reduces to 5 joins the Virgo list: 5, 14, 23, 32 and 41. These numbers are part of a long-standing tradition and should be treated as such: a source of interest and fun, not of advice or prediction.

How Virgo's numbers are worked out
The method takes one digit from the ruling planet and expands it. Mercury is 5 in the Chaldean or Cheiro scheme, so we keep every number from 1 to 49 whose digits add, eventually, to 5.
That means 5 itself, then 14 (1 + 4), 23 (2 + 3), 32 (3 + 2) and 41 (4 + 1). The next candidate, 50, falls outside the 1 to 49 range used here.
Virgo facts
Dates: August 23 to September 22. Element: Earth. Ruling planet: Mercury. Planet number: 5. Lucky numbers from 1 to 49: 5, 14, 23, 32, 41.
Some modern astrologers have suggested other rulers for Virgo, such as the asteroid Ceres, but there is no agreed number for them in Cheiro's system, so this page sticks to Mercury.
The daily Virgo set
The page also displays today's Virgo set, six numbers from 1 to 49 that come from the date and the sign name. The formula is the same for everyone, so all Virgos share the set for the day.
No astrology is involved in that set. It is simply a repeatable, light-hearted extra.
Frequently asked questions
What are Virgo's lucky numbers?
In the Chaldean or Cheiro tradition, Virgo's ruler Mercury carries the number 5. The numbers from 1 to 49 that reduce to 5 are 5, 14, 23, 32 and 41. They are symbolic associations, not predictions.
Why does Virgo have the same numbers as Gemini?
Both signs are ruled by Mercury. Since the numbers are derived from the ruling planet's digit, two signs with one ruler share one list, even though astrology describes their characters quite differently, with Gemini airy and Virgo earthy.
Is there a modern ruler for Virgo?
A few astrologers propose bodies such as Ceres or a hypothetical planet, but none is widely accepted and none has a number in Cheiro's scheme. This page therefore uses only the traditional ruler, Mercury, which every school agrees on.
How does today's Virgo set work?
A fixed formula takes today's date and the word Virgo and turns them into six different numbers from 1 to 49. Anyone choosing Virgo today sees the same six. It is a shared game, not a horoscope, and it changes every day.
Can I rely on these numbers for decisions?
Please don't. Numerology is a tradition people enjoy for reflection and fun, and it has no scientific backing. For games of chance, every combination is equally likely, so keep any play within a budget and follow local laws and age limits.
For entertainment and education. Random numbers cannot predict or improve the result of a draw, and numerology and astrology are traditions, not science. If you play a lottery, play only where it is legal for your age and location, and set a budget you can afford to lose. Free, confidential help: BeGambleAware (UK), 1-800-GAMBLER (US).
