Sure, lol, that's one answer...but it isn't the correct answer. The correct answer would be that there isn't a virgin in the sky, nor is there a lion, and that since neither of these things are there to begin with, they have never been, nor will ever be next to each other. There is only a collection of stars as viewed in 2d from our vantage point given some description by human beings with plenty of time on their hands to invent fanciful stories. Claims to herald stars are common, in myths. Descriptions of constellations have changed considerably over the years, and whatever you see when you look up is likely to be the product of your cultural background (ask the chinese about virgins and lions). Be less gullible in the future.
