Counting on stars

If it is accepted that VMs Virgo is a combination of Christian and classical influences, then it would fit in with the trends toward the form of ideological syncretism that occurred in the 15th C. 

The star in Virgo is Spica, and there's a story behind that too.

In the VMs, Virgo has a star inside its medallion. Which other VMs medallions have a star inside?

Unless I missed something, only two other VMs zodiac medallions have stars inside: Pisces has two stars and Scorpio has one. What is the reason for that?

The primary star in Scorpio is Aldebaran. But what are the two stars in Pisces - from a medieval perspective?

Based on pairing, first Pisces is a pair together. Then the others are a pair apart. Aldebaran is red and Spica is blue.

Many stars around the VMs medallions have been painted. Some are solid gold; others are fainter. All the way to where it's unclear if they have been painted or not. There are groups of stars with yellow centers and a few painted blue. And just one (?) with a couple touches of red.

Do these stars already have a thread?
