RE: [Zodiac Rating] VIRGO - Koen G - 07-07-2026
My thoughts on what she's holding:
- I would not include left or right hand as a parameter, since mirroring might change handedness. The relevant factor may be far hand vs close hand, but again that's hard to know. The Virgo mentioned You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. illustrates the point: technically left hand, but it's obviously the far hand that's preferred by the artist.
- What she is holding is either a star on a stalk or a flower. Therefore, I would award points to Virgos holding flowers specifically.
- In my opinion, the Spica type should be considered as different. This is when they are holding some cereal crop that looks like large feather or a palm fond. See R. Sale's examples above.
- The types holding scales or a rod are even more different.
How to best translate this into a rating system?
0 pts: holding nothing, spica or man-made object
1 pt: holding flower
2 pt: holding star
OR
0 pts: holding nothing or man-made object
1 pt: holding non-flower vegetation
2 pt: holding flower or star
Or something else?
