A virgin in most cultures is a sign of purity. Unblemished, a virgin is a perfect being that can withstand the cruelty of the world and hold its head proud and high. In the zodiac calendar, the virgin is the symbol for Virgo sun sign. Said to be an introvert symbol, or a feminine negative, the Virgo is also known to be an earth symbol and a mutable symbol sign. Virgo is ruled by the planet Mercury. But for modern astrologists, they push Ceres as the ruler of Virgo. For the tropical zodiac, a Virgo is born from August 23 to October 22 while for the sidereal zodiac; a Virgo is born from September 17 to October 17.

In Greek mythology, there are various female figures used to depict a Virgo.

Another myth comes from Asclepius, god of medicine and healing.

A crab is definitely one of the sea's most sensational delicacies. However, moving from the sea and into the stars, the crab is the symbol for the fourth astrological symbol we all know as Cancer. Perhaps this image was chosen because Caner is a water sign. And being a water sign, Cancer's primary isn't another planet but the Earth's orbiting moon. The image of the tide slowly shaping the Earth's surface constitutes the proper use of the Crab image for Cancer. Under the division of the sidereal and the tropical zodiacs, Cancer according to the tropical zodiac is born from June 22 to July 22. And for the sidereal zodiac, Cancers are born from July 16 to August 15.
