Jan Ernst Matzeliger the Virgo
Virgo notices. A mutable earth sign ruled by Mercury, Virgo sees the detail everyone else walked past: the thing that's slightly off, the step that would make this work properly, the small fix that quietly saves the day. It's a practical, useful kind of intelligence, applied to real things rather than abstractions.
In Chinese astrology
