Virginia
Virginia, an asteroid whose name means maiden, after the Roman Verginia, is read in modern astrology as the asteroid of maidenly integrity and self-possession, the defense of one's honor and autonomy, and the refusal to be violated or compromised. Read Virginia by its sign, house, and aspects to find where this principle works in the chart.
Lean in — Work consciously with Virginia's theme of maidenhood, integrity, and the defense of honor where it falls.
Watch for — Dismiss Virginia as too obscure; its theme acts whether or not you name it.
