My First Astro Memory
I vividly remember pulling the thin, white, hardback book off of the lower shelves in the youth section of my local city library sometime back in grade school - probably the upper grades. The image of the Virgo so solid and clear, the colors vibrant. The symbol even looked like it said "Me" and that's also how you begin my name, so it was easy enough to remember. I don't recall if I looked it up on purpose (what would have prompted me to do so?) or if I just stumbled upon it. Either way, what I do remember is the feeling I had of "Ah! There!" -as of a eureka moment- and the further fascination I had as I cracked the seldom-opened book ajar to peek inside. I don't even remember what was in there, really. But the moment of finding the book, seeing the image & the glyph, and the sense of wonder and recognition I felt has never left.
