Sign of partial forgiveness, possibly? (5)
I believe the answer is:
virgo
'sign' is the definition.
(I know this)
I can't explain the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for virgo that I've seen before include "A constellation, a cluster" , "Maiden" , "Large constellation -- sign of the zodiac" , "Large constellation between Leo and Libra" , "Sixth sign of zodiac" .)
