Helio

(religion, spiritualism, and occult)

Helio, asteroid 895 (the 895th asteroid to be discovered, on July 11, 1918), is approximately 68 kilometers in diameter and has an orbital period of 5.7 years. Helio was named after the Greek god of the Sun. J. Lee Lehman asserts that the person with this asteroid prominent in her or his natal chart “does her/his job, and expects to shine as a result of it.” Jacob Schwartz gives the astrological significance of Helio as “consistent confidence and delivery of creative energy.”
