A BRIEF HISTORY
In Greek mythology, Virgo is often associated with Demeter, the goddess of the harvest and agriculture. Demeter was an essential figure in the Greek pantheon, responsible for the fertility of the earth and the changing of the seasons. She taught humanity the arts of agriculture: sowing seeds, plowing, harvesting, and all that is necessary to feed and sustain life.
One of the most famous myths concerning Demeter is the story of her daughter, Persephone, who was abducted by Hades, the god of the underworld. Distraught, Demeter roamed the earth in search of her missing daughter, neglecting her duties and causing a great famine. It was only when Persephone was returned to her (for part of the year) that Demeter restored the earth's fertility. This myth is symbolic of the seasonal cycles of decay and regrowth, of winter and spring. Just as the earth goes through cycles of decay and renewal, so does human life have its phases of difficulty and resurgence—a lesson particularly resonant for meticulous and caring Virgos.
The traits of nurturing, a keen understanding of systems and cycles, and an attention to detail are seen as Virgo-like qualities inherited from Demeter. Virgos are often seen as the nurturers of the zodiac, taking care to ensure the well-being of their loved ones and their environments.
