"Her virgin nature is defined in the ancient sense as being complete and whole in herself. Here Vesta uses the reproductive energy of Venus for self-regeneration. Vesta is the principle of focus and commitment which utilizes the creative energy in a one-pointed devotion and dedication toward specific goals and aspirations." —Demetra George
