| In the U.S., schools always start when the Sign, Virgo, is reigning. My two older grandkids have gone back to college and the young'uns are getting ready to go back. Among other things, Virgo rules high school and trade schools. Too, the leaves begin to fall from the trees during Virgo. I think that's why she always seems the color, brown. Virgo is called, the Virgin, because her M traditionally was made with her legs crossed: * Scorpio M has a devilish pointed tail; Everything means something, the glyphs, colors, seasons, numbers, etc. in Astrology. That's why it's so much fun to learn and use. I use Chiron as the ruler of Virgo because he was such a great teacher. Ceres would be my second choice, but I tend to see her akin to the beginning of the growing season of Taurus, rather than the end in Virgo. This chart can be difficult with its Cardinal Cross and Mars moving swiftly into Cancer. We all may have a more difficult time settling in to the season and times. However, the first aspect the Sun makes is a trine to Pluto, so that should make everything a bit easier. It's time to get down to earth, to business, and to success! * Of course, Virgo wasn't called, "the virgin" because her M legs are crossed, but the reason is so hidden in antiquity, that it makes as much sense as anything else.
