I've always wondered why these three have stars and not the other central medallions.
There are also two signs missing, so a possibility that Capricorn or Aquarius may have had a star too.
Like DONJCH, I've tried finding some kind of common feature between the three but nothing seems to really add up.
As MichelleL says, we can't just consider Virgo's star in isolation. Whatever explanation there is, it resulted in stars in all three signs, at least.
It has crossed my mind that these might be the star signs of the manuscript's creators, or a marker that these astrological periods had some special personal importance to them.
