Last night when I couldn’t sleep( because I took a new supplement that gave me too much energy) I was thinking about which planet would rule Virgo. I think I can make a good case for Chiron. Vesta and Chiron are both thought of as contenders.I don’t think Vesta is the right one, but a case could be made for it. The case could be that Vesta is selfless giving. One can think of the a surrogate mother who gives her womb for the child which will be for another mother. Vesta is a wonderfully, selfless asteroid but I do not see it as the Ruler of Virgo. I will explain why.
Virgo does have Vesta qualities but it does not embody Vesta, in my opinion. This is because Vesta is a pure kind of planetary energy, pure in it’s goodness, pure in it’s purpose. Virgo is associated with pain. Chiron is, as well. Virgo seems to be a painful sign in most of it’s placements. Even Mercury, which is supposed to be it’s Domicile, is still painful.The person is too attentive to details, in an obsessive way. Virgo is unlike Gemini, who finds pure joy in the intellect. Everything for Virgo is a drudgery akin to the ant carrying the heavy crumb up the hill. I hate to be so blunt but mincing words will not make it worth your time to visit my website and I try to make it worth your while by being as honest as I can.
Virgo seems to be a sign which puts a burden on it’s natives. It seems to be a heavy cloak, a hair shirt. The Virgo placements seem to take a pound of flesh, from the native, so to speak. Each Virgo placement takes a pound of flesh, in it’s own way. Venus in Virgo sets such high standards that no one can meet them. Mercury in Virgo becomes so lost in details that trees swallow up the forest and the native is left going from tree to tree for some bearings. Virgo Moon seems to put so much pressure on himself that the result is a great deal of pain. This seems to be the case with the ASC and the Sun, too. When I think of Virgo I think of trying too hard to be perfect, in oneself and in one’s life. This trait dominates every Virgo placement, in my opinion.That is why I associate Virgo with pain,which is Chiron’s domain.
