Weight: 0.1 ounces per earring (less than the weight of a single US nickel)
The name Virgo is Latin for virgin. The autumnal equinox---when the sun is directly above the equator, making night and day equal in length---happens in September. It is the largest zodiac constellation. We have found at least 35 exoplanets here, one of which is almost 8 times the size of Jupiter. It is rich in galaxies, including the famed Sombrero Galaxy, and this is where we photographed our first black hole. Virgo is also where we found the first (and brightest) quasar.
The Virgo astrological sign is the second earth sign of the zodiacs, being represented by the color brown. This sign is ruled by the planet Mercury. The sun is in this constellation during the start of autumn, from approximately August 22 - September 22.
