Pomona
Pomona, an asteroid named for the Roman goddess of orchards and fruit, is read in modern astrology as the asteroid of the tending and cultivation of what bears fruit, patient care that ripens into harvest, and devotion to growing things. Read Pomona by its sign, house, and aspects to find where this principle works in the chart.
Lean in — Work consciously with Pomona's theme of cultivation, tending, and the fruits of care where it falls.
Watch for — Dismiss Pomona as too obscure; its theme acts whether or not you name it.
