Virgo · Libra
the maiden and the scales
Today this word meansTwo constellations of spring and early summer, side by side.
Read as Astraea, the maiden of justice who stayed on earth longest before departing for the sky — and the scales she carried.
Other versions make Virgo Demeter or Persephone, since her leading star Spica means "ear of wheat."
Libra was not originally its own constellation but the claws of Scorpius; the Romans detached it and made it the scales.
Worth noting
Who the maiden is has been disputed since antiquity. The Astraea reading spread widest, but nothing is settled.
